I no longer use this account. My new one just is so fresh that I doubt you have anything on that one. I don’t have you blocked on that account because I’m trying new approach to curating my feed and I’m using word filters now rather than blocking people when even they say something stupid.

Also, blocking doesn’t hide my comments from you - just yours from me.

You got anything on me? (I had to unblock you to find this comment)

If he had said that you’d link me an article. He haven’t so you lie about it and justify it with orange man bad. Just shows how disinfo is spread by both sides.

No, stopping US military aid will definitely not stop the war and I’m not aware of Trump even claiming he is going to end military aid. Disinformation until proven otherwise.

Where has he said he wants to stop helping Ukraine? Haven’t he been quite vocal about wanting to end the war?

I have never used the app anyway. I used Flamingo and when they killed 3rd party apps I’ve just been using browser instead. Lets me block ads that way too.

LLMs are AI. There’s a common misconception about what ‘AI’ actually means. Many people equate AI with the advanced, human-like intelligence depicted in sci-fi - like HAL 9000, JARVIS, Ava, Mother, Samantha, Skynet, and GERTY. These systems represent a type of AI called AGI (Artificial General Intelligence), designed to perform a wide range of tasks and demonstrate a form of general intelligence similar to humans.

However, AI itself doesn’t imply general intelligence. Even something as simple as a chess-playing robot qualifies as AI. Although it’s a narrow AI, excelling in just one task, it still fits within the AI category. So, AI is a very broad term that covers everything from highly specialized systems to the type of advanced, adaptable intelligence that we often imagine. Think of it like the term ‘plants,’ which includes everything from grass to towering redwoods - each different, but all fitting within the same category.

Default lemmy feed is almost entirely left-wing content. By blocking half of these people it’s still all left-wing content. As a Lemmy user I wouldn’t really proud myself for having a diversified feed even if I didn’t block anyone.

I’m the same way. I don’t block people I disagree with but my tolerance for assholes is quite low. I block multiple people each day and have been doing so for over a year. When I see a thread about Elon or Trump for example I just go in and find all the most toxic commentors there and block them. Again, not because I disagree but because I don’t want to see incivil assholes in my feed. If I see someone write mean comments I assume that’s what they do and I want nothing to do with them. Currently my blocklist is around 600 users long.

What does greed have to do with spreading misinformation? Even the term itself implies ignorance. If it was intentional it would be called disinformation.

We’re talking about spreading misinformation, which by definition implies ignorance. If it was intentional it would be called disinformation.

Don’t contribute to malice what can be explained by ignorance.

I don’t think tax cuts alone are going to make it possible to live off single person income.

All I have seen is that self driving cars will decide to kill people because they cannot make decisions about life in a way that preserves it.

Do you have any examples?

Male genital mutilation isn’t really a thing where I’m from so I’d say probably not.

I’m no phycisist but I’d bet that the claim “it consumes no energy” is almost certainly false. I get what they mean but this isn’t exactly a honest way to describe it.

No, I’m sure it’s probably that easy and they simply refuse to do so because they’re evil. I wish Lemmy would run the world so we’d have all things sorted out in no time.

In order to live off of one person’s income that person either needs to earn a shit ton of money or prices needs to come down significantly. That’s not something anyone can just make happen like that.

As if that’s something you can do just like that

My theory is that if we split people into two groups - those who hit snooze and those who don’t - and dropped them on a desert island to survive, one group would rebuild civilization while the other descended into chaos and perished.
