  • Repeat after me … AI is Assumed Intelligence, there is no reasoning, no semantic anything, it’s statistics the whole way down. An LLM does not “understand”, it does not “think”, nor does it have “concepts”.

    It’s autocorrect on steroids, one “token” at a time, a perfect example of “sufficiently advanced technology indistinguishable from magic”.

    If it’s feeding you something you don’t like or disagree with, take it up with the billionaire charlatans destroying the global economy and our environment whilst running the crawlers gobbling up every website they can hit.


  • I’ve been thinking about this for a bit, if all traffic is end-to-end encrypted, the server connecting two endpoints doesn’t have access to the data, so as far as I can see there’s no reason that this couldn’t be implemented using federated services.

    I would be surprised if such a service doesn’t already exist, just waiting for widespread user adoption, which undoubtedly relies on mobile phone apps to pass a minimum threshold of viability, something which both Lemmy and Mastodon both struggle with.

    The people here today are really part of the early adopters, once you start seeing mainstream media talk about the fediverse, you can expect traction.
