A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.

Summary:

I downvoted pro-AI comments in a post in leftymemes community. It was LLM generated polandball comic (Which is objectively pathetic as fuck) that showed up on my feed, blocked couple of users who I thought were unhinged, and have blocked the whole instance on my client after realizing how rabid these morons are.

I didn't go looking for AI posts like a vigilante.

One user in question got miffed for being downvoted and banned me from places they moderate.

I keep seeing dbzer0.com paired with some unhinged opinions. Is it a good site to block in general, or should I continue my current trajectory of just blocking the names I see making these opinions public?

dbzer0.com is a good instance for things like piracy, privacy and other "non-standard" uses of technology. It is very anarchist.

So many people use "anarchism" in their identity that I just don't trust it. I mean there's anarcho-capitalists for starters... If there's a strong culture of pro-AI there, thought, that may be enough on its own to just get rid of them.

Anarcho-communsit, explicitly.

db0 isn't pro-corpo-ai, its pro-ai-the-technology.

That's the claim. Yet, it seems to change whenever it's convenient to exert authority over others. Ironic.

Is it pro-ai-the-technology or is it mainly pro-generative-ai?

I'm anti-"AI" ("scare quotes" because we can't even define intelligence yet, let alone build it), so sounds like it's a no-go for me and filled with the kind of people I really have no time for.

That's mostly not true. You can block al the ai comms (I did, I'm not too much of a fan of Ai images) and its fine.
