I’m guessing that I was banned for recent, scientifically accurate statements about “AI” despite a long history of posting in the comm. As someone who doesn’t believe in “AI”, I think that a great portion of “anti-AI” sentiment is misguided at best and most often feeding the grift. I think it’s really sad how people who supposed oppose “AI” constantly feed the hype through anthropomorphism, absurd claims/beliefs, etc. Perhaps more importantly, if you’re more upset by people generated images of witches than by genocide, surveillance, etc., then you’re part of the problem. TBH technology is always corrupted by capitalism and nothing special is really happening with “AI” apart from the massive grift. The comm seems like a lib space mostly for promoting phony “AI” press releases. I’m not surprised that I was banned for my thought crimes. “AI” doesn’t exist and I’m not sorry about it. But that comm is the real booster. Rife with pseudo-science and anthropomorphism. That’s why liberal resistance is not actually resistance. These people are going to be crying about witch pictures while being dragged off to prison during an “AI” raid…

    It’s one of those circlejerk communities. Both PTB because it is, and sort of YDI because of you go against the jerk you can’t really expect anything else. Same as with the linuxsucks guy.

        Yeah, well, that’s what happens when you use those feeds. You browse unfiltered, you get unfiltered. It’s like drinking from a river, enough people shit in it and you’ll always have turds floating by. That’s why I only use the subscribed feed. I still get turds, but at least they’re predictable.

      They’re more than that, they’re also a harassment community. Their members have been harassing me for years and I don’t even post there. It’s not like linuxsucks at all, that community doesn’t harass people who use Linux.
