@doesnm @hendrik @fediverse I am not that much against AI but 99.9% of slopware is garbage, and a developer needs to do something extraordinary to prove that their thing is worth my attention.

Unfortunately, the interesting parts like group chats are not standardized, so not compatible to other Fediverse platforms.
And I’m generally a bit wary of AI written projects. It’s just hard to contribute and get a community going. And a lot of those kinds of projects show some crazy initial growth. And then they might get abandoned once the developer decides to start a new hobby or stop paying for the necessary tokens. Not sure if this is the case here, though.
It’d be nice to have something like this. Ideally an interoperable version.
https://www.poynter.org/shop/reporting-editing/todays-news-for-tomorrow/ Never been a better time to think about archiving and preserving journalism you publish.
per: thread at https://bsky.app/profile/erinkeane.bsky.social/post/3mzlmi4pqgk23 about the end of Salon.com, including:
"Erin Keane @erinkeane.bsky.social
Also, because so many of y'all were past contributors — we've been live for over 30 years, a century in internet time — as far as I have been told, the Salon editorial archive will stay live for now, the site isn't going dark at end of business or anything. But I have no further intel on its future."

We wrote for @theintercept.com last month about why we need a federal anti-SLAPP law. Red and blue states alike have passed these laws.
This should be an easy sell to Democrats as well as Republicans looking to distance themselves from the SLAPP-ster in chief.

This is worse than an PR stunt. To liken what algorithms do in a data center with what humans do in a university is just one more step in the "AI are people"-push and all the shit this contains.

It was. And they’ve also erased its generated disclosures.

I think I might stop reading The Odyssey because idk I'm on book 4 or 5 or something and they're still not talking about Odysseus!
It's like the world's long preamble.
It's literally Telemachus going about to various dinner parties to have a chat and generally talk about anything other than Odysseus. At one point the rulers of the house don't even bother to ask him who he is and they give him food and a bed for the night so they can ask him who the hell he is in the morning.
I just want one eyed giants and things.
Can we have Star Trek back?
Can we make that legislative policy???
@hacks4pancakes The Wachowskis doing Trek as a treat perhaps?

Kinda wondering if writing the ideas around convivial systems up and wrapping it in a project format to apply to Mozilla Foundation makes sense. https://www.mozillafoundation.org/en/what-we-do/grantmaking/fellowship/2027-call-for-applications/ . But it reads like it's just all slop all day what they are looking for.
@tante yikes that is a depressing read

If the author’s profile is any indication, it’s likely Harmony was written using AI:

@alexisbushnell@toot.wales I don't have skin in this specific game since 2018, but it feels important to ask when I boost, it's trans-friendly, right?
(I boosted anyway on the default assumption that it is, but look forward to clarity.)
@katievm oh yes. Sucks that you have to ask but I totally understand why.
I personally wouldn't share anything that wasn't trans friendly. The guy who runs it is super lovely and really values acceptance and inclusion.
