But you’re not, and anyone with at least two brain cells can see that.
Trump calls “Antifa” a terrorist organization. “Antifa” is not an organization at all. It’s a broad term for people who call themselves anti-fascists, and rigidly police each other’s use of that term.
I want to create a totalitarian regime
Then you’re not antifascist.
show me a western woman who’s done some shit like this lmao.
That’s easy, there’s one in the post.
Trans women are women, asshole.
didn’t accomplish much
wrote a reverse engineered GPU driver from scratch by herself
Also, the first NES emulator was called NESticle. I have a feeling it wasn’t developed by a woman of color.
EDIT: My bad. NESticle was the first well-known emulator. The first emulator was released in 1990 by Haruhisa Udagawa, for a computer called the FM Towns that was only released in Japan. No points for diversity when you’re in a country where you’re the majority race.
OpenStreetMap ftw
Which is true, and a good argument in favor of diabetics having easy access to sugary things – not having them when they’re needed can literally be life-threatening. It is not, however, am argument for everyone having easy access to them – corporations bet on people getting addicted to them, and sugary drinks in particular give a sharp increase in risk for developing diabetes (according to one study, 25% increase in risk per 16oz sugary drink per day).
…So you insist that AI power use isn’t a big problem right now, but your best case scenario for the future is that humanity gets nuked out of existence. By nukes that were designed using help from LLMs, which they haven’t been shown to be able to help with.
You seem like a very serious person who is worth debating.
As for the data use thing, firstly, I don’t know why the choices are between the actual work and hearsay. I don’t know where you got those two options from. I also don’t know what would be producing the hearsay (human? LLM? If the latter, are we straight up admitting to copyright laundering? Also, I thought training LLMs on output of previous LLMs caused model collapse). I especially don’t know why you’re asking me to speculate on what creatives want immediately after attacking my ability to speak on behalf of creatives. But since you are apparently asking me to do that, I think they’d prefer the hearsay, since the point is that they don’t want the model to be able to imitate their work for anyone who asks for cheap, and in so doing, put them out of a job. Or worse, have the model agree to a job they would have said no to, and damage their credibility and brand.
Okay. I’m not sure how that excerpt proves he’s an industry plant. It sounds like he’s talking about the massive financial crater that will be left behind when the fact that zero companies in the AI sector that do not manufacture hardware are profitable catches up with them and the bubble pops, which I personally think he’s right about.
I don’t know about other industries, but I’m a programmer, and I firmly believe that people who cannot be bothered to put in the hours to learn to do so the old fashioned way, should not make software.
Vibe coding is how you get software designed by people who do not know how to design software and implemented by a chatbot that is infamous for writing buggy, insecure, impossible-to-maintain code.
Frontier level models are finding novel solutions to decades-long unsolved maths problems.
Such as?
Because if you’re talking about that recent proof of the Collatz conjecture, I’ve got bad news.
Also let me know when they figure out how to stop making stuff up, or at least to understand the difference between a sequence of tokens that represents a true fact and one that does not.
This is cool, but it is a completely different kind of AI from LLMs.
Do a little research. AI power usage isn’t that much of a problem yet.
Okay.

Power usage from AI data centers has already eclipsed power usage from all other data centers combined. If you can come up with a scenario where AI hasn’t doubled in scale by 2030 by belching smoke into the atmosphere, I’ll concede the point.
A lot of really good data is copyrighted
Yeah, and that’s too fucking bad. If the people who made it don’t want it to be used for AI training (and I don’t think I’ve ever met a creator who has done the research on AI who does, even if they got paid), it shouldn’t be.
Here’s a link to the exact same post on Cory Doctorow’s (tracker-free) blog: https://pluralistic.net/2026/08/01/dare-snot/#i-will-fucking-piledrive-you-if-you-mention-ai-again
Pro tip: when copying a link to a Lemmy/Piefed/Kbin/etc post, please make sure you use your instance’s option to copy the link to the post on its original instance (the instance the post was made on), rather than simply copying the link to the post on your instance out of your URL bar. On your instance’s web interface, that option is in the More drop down next to the Boost button, just below the post title. (On a Lemmy instance, the link to the original post is the Fediverse icon right next to the upvote and downvote buttons, and you can right click and Copy Link from there).
Obviously, when you open a post in the browser on an instance that isn’t yours by clicking a link (for example, this link to this same post on my instance, which is a vanilla Lemmy instance), you can’t interact with it, because you aren’t logged in, because you don’t have an account on that instance. To interact with it, you need to open the same post through your own instance.
If you have a link to a post on the instance it was created on, you can simply paste that URL (the whole thing) into your instance’s search bar to open it on there, so you can vote/comment/etc. Some mobile apps can even do this automatically. However, this doesn’t work if you paste a link to a post through an instance other than the instance it was created on. In order to interact with the post you just linked to, people have to click the link to open the post on your instance, then click the button on there to copy the original link, before pasting it into their own instance. It’s polite not to make them go through that extra work.
Judging by your account age, it seems you’re new to Lemmy, so you probably didn’t know that. Just something to keep in mind for future. :)
Call it Pascal’s Wager if you like, but if it’s not too late to do anything, me doing my part, however small, will help, and if it is too late, my efforts won’t make it worse.

just once i would like to scroll lemmy for more than 15 minutes without being smashed over the head with an example of why i left
Well sure, Republicans are currently actively trying to strip away trans rights, build a military with the authorization to operate within our borders, black bag people in the streets without charging them with a crime because they don’t like what they have to say, and deploying the goddamn Armed Forces against their own citizens when they have the audacity to peacefully protest about it, and Democrats are voting party line against every single one of those, but they aren’t saying no louder than that, so they’re the same.
No one is better at mental gymnastics than leftists, I swear to god.
can ml go two goddamn seconds without fellating a dictatorship because they saw “communism” on the sign
For when you wanna look like a showering Sim
