Mod alt of @curbstickle@anarchist.nexus
If you need to DM me, please reach out to me there, this account is primarily for dealing with reports.
That being said, it should be okay for users to call out an obvious grift, or a “nonsense repo” that’s actually pure slop.
Especially if the disclosure is blatantly a lie, absolutely. I’d also say if you see any indicators that they are lying in the disclosure, its still worthy of reporting - but I would say report and separately message the “why”, to limit visibility of seeing those indicators.
Just to point out a few projects that allow AI contributions:
If you want all projects related to AI in a different community, it may be easier for you to start “selfhosted_without_ai” or something.
Your account has not existed long enough for self promotional posts. Please stick around and get to know the community, and post when requirements are met.
Eh, its fine. Certainly better than the “I don’t like this so I’m going to report it” approach.
@SuspiciousCarrot78@aussie.zone this comment is not (directly) for you, I just want it in context.
Before you report someone for breaking rule 1, please look a the context. Specifically, the username someone may be replying to.
Its fully open source with no payment required, so it doesn’t violate rule 7.
AI disclosure is a new discussion starting this weekend.
I actually do want tagging of some sort, I think its a sensible approach overall. I think its a quick way to identify that your project used AI and people can quickly filter, per your example.
That said, I think that should be a separate item, and I don’t want to inundate with stickies either. That was going to be my next “oh look a mod is annoying us with his opinion again” post, but then we ended up seeing a ton of promo content this week. I’m trying to stick to a mod post every week or two so everyone has a chance to see and respond to things.
That said, if you want to get that discussion ball rolling, feel free to make a meta post about it of course!
Offtopic and inappropriate for the discussion.
@DepthSight@lemmy.world you made this post right in the middle of a bigger conversation around promotional posts, so be aware that this post may be removed later pending the outcome of that discussion in the meta thread here:
https://lemmy.world/post/48462124/24369166
For everyone else, here is why I’m leaving the thread up:
Here is where I see a potential problem:
By default, DepthSight client nodes connect to the centralized Federation Hub to enable shared community features like verified strategy templates, discussion boards, public leaderboard ranking, and the live global node network topology map.
For those coming here and reporting, please be aware this doesn’t blatantly break any rules imo, only the (extremely subjective) rule 2, which I don’t think fits for the reasons I noted above. Making a good reference for discussion in the meta.
No worries, everyone gets caught up sometimes even me. Thats why its just a bunch of removals.
There’s no respect in that statement and thats not appropriate here. Lets calm it down and keep it a discussion, not aggression and attacks.
Hey, would gladly welcome the project, but I want to point out that this is the /c/selfhosted community - so neat as a public service, but this is the wrong community.
Once you are ready to post the code / set this up for self-hosting, please feel free to repost.
Until then, I’ll be locking the post.
Whats in the post title is blaming users. Its incorrect.
I’d recommend you reconsider who needs to work on their reading comprehension, as well as the attitude coming in here. This is a community, and one where we don’t need to come in and attack/name call, especially when you’ve fundamentally misunderstood the issue.
I’d re-read what I said then - again, it was not users deleting their content, but the former moderator. People downvoting were likely responding to the blame being placed on the users - aka, the members of this community - when they were not to blame. The people you just referred to as moronic leeches with the reading comprehension of a potato who were, again, not to blame.
I suspect people who realized it was the former moderator removing the posts, and not the users themselves.
We don’t need to be unpleasant to disagreethough, so going forward lets try to avoid that.
And I’ll use your comment as my post here for a local mod appointment of my lw account!
I think you may be misunderstanding the terminology here.
AI is a general term. LLMs are a subset, as are ML, DL, ANNs, NLP, CV, Expert models, etc.
Today you would define what we have as ANI, where the “N” stands for “Narrow”. This is also known as “weak” AI.
What you’re referring to would be called AGI, where the “G” stands for “General”, where an AI would have a human degree of intelligence. This is pure concept today, and does not exist.
Also on the list would be ASI, where the “S” is for “Super”, where the AI in question has more collective intelligence than humanity across all domains. This is purely hypothetical.
But AI has existed for decades. The first application I know of is Dendral, which was created in the 1950s to analyze mass spectrometry data to identify organic molecules. This was what’s called an Expert model - basically a lot of if-then statements, and led to things like MYCIN.
We don’t need to redefine words here.
