  • There isn’t any open source solution possible if AI models are beholden to copyright laws.

    This is advocating for a world where only a handful of companies would be able to train AI models, and the rest of us would become their pets as we move towards an AI driven society.

    The artist and writers already lost, there is no going back. Now we see if we all win together or if only google, openai, shutterstock, Adobe, stack overflow, github and reddit win since they are the only ones with the data or able to pay for it.

























  • I hate Facebook as much as the next guy but I think this whole defederation business just stinks. I left Reddit because they were forcing me to use their app, but now I’m in a community that chooses what I see?

    I’m hoping lemmy sets up a way to ban instances because this should 100% be up to the user.

    There’s also the fact that this place is starving for content, this really feels like a shoot yourself in the foot kind of moment. The userbase is going to completely stall if there’s an alternative with 100x more content that can’t be accessed from our endpoint.

    Its definitely a complicated situation, I know it’s an unpopular opinion so I’ll accept the downvotes.


  • This community revolves around two sentence horrors, stories where the first sentence typically takes on an other far darker meaning once the second sentence is read.

    Its very common for these types of stories to explore difficult content like murder, suicide, conjugal violence, etc so it’s natural that some of them would gravitate to the worst horror of all time.

    I think it’s a very big mistake to turn the holocaust into a taboo that can’t be mentioned. I wouldn’t call Schindler’s list or The Book Thief antisemitic, I wouldn’t label this story like that either. I believe it’s okay to explore what happened through popular mediums.

    There’s really nothing humourous about it and it doesn’t make light of it at all imo.
