"Finally, Milanote is available for free without a time limit..."

So yeah that's gonna get used to train up AI. Right? And sell products to people, and sell the ads too?

I was using the Python csv library for a script but decided I should dig into the pandas DataFrame stuff instead.

It was more complex, and it took me awhile to figure things out, and I had to read a bunch of web pages explaining things.

But in the end, I am 100% happy I did it that way.

I did not want to ask some AI/LLM for the answers, or to write the code for me.

Because for me, the struggle and the journey is part of creating something worthwhile.

Huuuuge thank you to @chimera for their very clear and stress relieving stance on "generative" AI, as well as other unpleasant things that go against the values one should expect of FLOSS projects. You may have earned yourself a new user based on that alone!
Time to boot up an old laptop and see how it runs~!

Also, side note: "Chimera" Linux. Idek if I'm pronouncing that correctly when I say it out loud, but whichever way I try ends up sounding nice. I like that name (and your colour scheme. :3

Things are getting pretty ugly with AI. First time that I see this warning message at the Wikipedia:
"This article may incorporate text from a large language model. It may include hallucinated information, copyright violations, claims not verified in cited sources, original research, or fictitious references. "

@Framasoft I have an urgent question: why does the PeerTube repository contain instructions for Copilot? Using software like Whisper for subtitles, while coming from an awful company like OpenAI, is at least understandable and not "generative" in and of itself (to my knowledge). However, Copilot very much falls under the "generative" banner and is literally owned by Microsoft. If anything, instructions should be dissuading it from combing through PT's code, not encouraging it.

I think PeerTube is one of the best Fediverse projects currently being maintained. Video hosting is one of the biggest barriers keeping us from a truly open internet by people, for people, and PeerTube is tearing down those barriers. Nobody else has managed this while being open source, and the work poured into PeerTube shows when you use it for yourself. I've donated to it's continuation before, and I recommend it to my peers.
I assume these instructions are making Copilot test for errors in the (hopefully human-made) code? I'm not a programmer, I just can't bare another "open source" project making use of this garbage. Not another one...

If you researched the policies for all those other projects, you surely could have looked into all the reasons not to taint your own with AI "generated" slop, yet you made the conscious decision to do so anyway.

Also shame on them to a lesser extent for not revising their policies to stand against things like this. The ball is in their court.

I wonder if the folks who are like "Hey look! I built an app with AI!" understand what supporting an application and supporting customers/users of an application is like.

I fear it's similar people who adopt a cute puppy and then later it sinks in that they'll need to care for a dog over its entire lifetime.

Of course some people just give up on their adopted puppy and surrender them. How many applications will be abandon-ware within a year or two?
