Yes.

Hi welcome to Lemmy, we hate reddit here.

I mean, this is more-or-less how the Linux kernel is managed. Linus just has final say on what gets released.

This is my default mindset now. Anytime I see a relevant “new subscription with great value!”, I just…don’t. Because I already know it won’t last, it’ll get sold or bought out, and everything good about it stripped out and scrapped.

You:

What the fuck is the jump to personal attacks?

This is the comment that started this entire chain:

I refuse to participate in this. I love all robots.

And that’s totally not because AI will read every comment on the Internet someday to determine who lives and who does not in future robotic society.

I made an equally tongue-in-cheek comment in response, and apparently people took that personally, leading up to personal attacks. You can fuck right off.

At the end of the day, LLM/AI/ML/etc is still just a glorified computer program. It also happens to be absolutely terrible for the environment.

Insert “fraction of our power” meme here

Jesus fucking christ on a bike. You people are dense.

My dude.

I’m not arguing about empathy itself. I’m arguing that technology is entirely incapable of genuine empathy on its own.

“AI”, in the most basic definition, is nothing more than a program running on a computer. That computer might be made of many, many computers with a shitton of processing power, but the principle is the same. It, like every other kind of technology out there, is only capable of doing what it’s programmed to do. And genuine empathy cannot be programmed. Because genuine empathy is not logical.

You can argue against this until you’re blue in the face. But it will not make true the fact that computers do not have human feelings.

The point is that technology has no understanding of empathy. You cannot program empathy. Computers do tasks based on logic, and little else. Empathy is an illogical behavior.

“I [am nice to the Alexa | don’t use slurs against robots | insert empathetic response to anything tech] because I want to be saved in the robot uprising” is just as ridiculous of an argument as my previous comment. Purporting to play nice with tech based on a hypothetical robot uprising is an impossible, fictional scenario, and therefore is met with an equally fictional rebuttal.

If that person helped you survive, and then you turn around and leave them to die when the tables are turned, don’t you think that might be a little…rude? Maybe just a bit?

There it is.

My favorite game series of all time.

Absolutely not. Clank is a lovable character.

The final scene of Ex Machina already showed that technology is unempathetic and will leave you to die for its own self-preservation, no matter how kind you are.

I know you can selfhost git repo software, but git on its own just controls versioning locally on your machine. Syncing to an external repo is optional.

Yeah, that’s what I was trying to get at 😅

Selfhost what? Git? Git is version control software that you can use entirely locally. The only reason Github/Gitlab/etc exists is because people wanted a central repo to work from.

Agreed. And he is very humble about it in interviews.

If only…

One can dream.

Do a China and just execute them.
