Curating this volume of content is impossible, and there are legitimate dangers in giving the government too much ability to shut down free speech
Agreed. We have already given more than enough control to the government in other areas of our lives. We now have alternative social platforms that give us a chance to actually have more direct control over our media landscape which hasn’t been true in such a long time.
you have to build a society that doesn’t want to engage with bigotry, and explore and question its own assumptions (and that’s not ever a fixed state, it’s an ongoing process).
I think this is what they were trying to get across when they mention media ecology. They were pointing out how the structure of where media is shared and its sources can be more important for quashing disinformation than the actual content itself.
So when something is shared through YouTube there are certain pressures that over time mold the source of information into a specific format.
I’d say the same is true of the Fediverse as well. That’s why its important we get the structure here right because it will determine what kind of platform this place turns into.
Edit: grammar
such that your model could be “riding along on a human surfboard with human guidance”
Sorry I don’t really understand what you’re saying here.
Good point. I have been a lot more active in tailoring my experience here compared to other social media. I wish there was more tools for deciding whether or not you want to block someone though. Sometimes its not as simple as just looking at their post history. Also as an aside I wish it was possible to block votes as well so the ranking of the content was also able to be personalized.
I’m going to be bold enough to say we don’t have as wide of an AI/LLM issue on the Fediverse as the other platforms will have.
Why do you think that? I don’t think that there is anything systemic in how the fediverse operates that will stop LLMs polluting the discourse here too. Actually I already think that they are polluting the discourse here.
That sucks. So much research is being twisted by humanity’s greed. I hope that whatever comes after the internet becomes useless is better.
2·6 months agoMaybe, I’m not sure because I don’t really have much knowledge on self-hosting. I did find this on their website though so you could start here:
Does it have to be online? If not then you can try LibreOffice Impress. Otherwise not sure.
couldn’t they get that with a regular computer?
what use would a regular citizen have for a quantum computer?
If kagi is just an aggregate of other search engines why not just use a searx instance instead? Its open source and customizable.
No it’s not doing anything about injustice that is making the world as fucked up as it is today. And that isn’t happening because we are being disempowered.
2·1 year agoInteresting take. I wish they expanded on what we needed to do to make those problems easier for us to solve.
This is ai generated.
You know if you want to do something more effective than just putting copyright at the end of your comments you could try creating an adversarial suffix using this technique. It makes any LLM reading your comment begin its response with any specific output you specify (such as outing itself as a language model or calling itself a chicken).
It gives you the code necessary to be able to create it.
There are also other data poisoning techniques you could use just to make your data worthless to the AI but this is the one I thought would be the most funny if any LLMs were lurking on lemmy (I have already seen a few).
What annoys me about this is that it implicitly says that if you have more money you deserve to be safer.
7·1 year agoIt’s an Anarcho-Capitalist-Primitivist
How is eating the rich a capitalist thing?
Agreed. Also, does the axolotl mean anything?
Edit: Also since this is the closest post that I’ve found related to this topic. Is anyone here interested in a community where people make story-based forecasts for the future of something true today but won’t be in the future? Here is an example I did recently
A specific server for piped is broken. Other servers still work. It is a federated service like lemmy.
I think that will change over time as developers choose specific features/platforms to work on and when admins start customizing how their instance displays info more heavily instead of just cosmetic or federation changes.
