I admire your positivity. I do not share it though, because from what I have seen, because even if there are open weights, the one with the biggest datacenter will in the future hold the most intelligent and performance model.
Very similar to how even if storage space is very cheap today, large companies are holding all the data anyway.
AI will go the same way, and thus the megacorps will and in some extent already are owning not only our data, but our thoughts and the ability to modify them.
I mean, sponsored prompt injection is just the first thought modifying thing, imagine Google search sponsored hits, but instead it’s a hyperconvincing AI response that subtly nudges you to a certain brand or way of thinking.
Absolutely terrifies me, especially with all the research Meta has done on how to manipulate people’s mood and behaviour through which social media posts they are presented with
I’ll just ask chatgpt to do the research and vote for me
Yeah because if everyone is extremely cheap labour everyone will prosper? :)
First I’ll explain NAT, NAT is the root of all evil. Done
It’s interesting how both of these guys who seems to both be firmly in the “don’t break shit for the users” camp, and both are very adamant about quality of code in the kernel can’t get along, saddens me a bit.
I’m excited about bcachefs, I’m even planning a migration from btrfs, but I need to battle test my offsite backup a bit more before having the guts to walk into bcachefs land.
Might wait for 6.18,6.19 or something and follow any future drama
The “if” is working overtime in your statement
Wish I could by a whole ass fish for 4 dollars…
If both are fascist, similar quality and one is cheaper. The choice is no longer very hard
I would even argue that the Chinese ones are becoming better. It’s not like the parts or the assembly quality of American made stuff is better than chinese.
But oh so lucrative, and with a catchy phrase…
I see moneybags in this idea, wonder who will first make it a reality…
And you are self-sufficient, or whatever the word is. But that’s the key thing for me, not having to rely on others for my services :)
Dude above you over is under the perception that it requires 100% uptime or other users to to be classified, which is wrong. You are definitely self hosting, albeit only for yourself I assume. Which is fine
Agreed, first path towards that is decentralized identities in my opinion
So if the AI generated summaries are better than man made summaries, this would not be an issue would it?
Lol, the source data for all AI is starting to use AI to summarize.
Have you ever tried to zip a zipfile?
But then on the other hand, as compilers become better, they become more efficient at compiling their own source code…
Let people be excited about this if they want, I don’t think it will matter that much tbh.
Let other people suggest Linux to their friends as an alternative, maybe some of them stick to using it, while others just conclude it’s crap and move on.
You should really wonder why you get so upset from this though, it seems to cause you real harm that people might be wrong on the internet.
Federated solutions are just a step in the right direction, to be able to have people access free software and platforms, they will have to do something. Either pay (which they dont) or help provide the platforms.
The first step in helping provide the platform is probably to help host the load, to help host the load, the first thing is to be able to hold your data on your devices, the second is to be able to share your data with other devices.
The first part of being able to hold your data and share it is to own your identity and hold that locally. SSI identities help with this, that means that no server needs to hold and own your identity.
If the identity is kept safe, even though you are the one storing it on your hardware,that means the data you ship, can be trusted through signing.
Once that is the case, it’s just distribution and availability. Which there already are many solutions such as IPFS, or other CDN similar solutions, that means that volunteers can provide as much data storage/distribution as they want from their own hardware.
It all starts with owning your own identity, that enables the other solutions to be trustworthy.
Cool project!
Congratulations and keep wiggling!
You could also go the other way, if you are smart incapable of being efficient at me menial labour. You will go hungry, until such a time you are hungry enough to do the menial labour for very cheap.
Turning us into two distinctly separate classes, low educated low intelligence, and high intelligence, highly educated elites controlling swarms of smart AI
