David Gerardhow hard do you have to fuck up posting to turn into a main character on *mastodon*.
RootWyrm 🇺🇦
@davidgerard which of them? Because one of them demanding Mastodon make room for AI bros and explicit fascists is <checks notes> the official Mastodon non-profit's "senior product advisor."
David Fleetwood - RG Admin@rootwyrm @davidgerard Eugen is doing a heel turn now?
@reflex @davidgerard nope, Eugen started the other main character by telling him basically "I'm not the manager, dipshit."
@rootwyrm @davidgerard Yeah, my bad for not reading further down the 800+ posts of my timeline first lol. I purposefully stay away from here on weekends so monday is a bit confusing. My bad!

@rootwyrm @davidgerard A bit of a tangent, but the idea that "mastodon is hostile to AI" as though that's some odd thing when polls show the public is overwhelmingly hostile to AI leads these bros to question Mastodon/fedi and what needs to happen to change that sentiment, vs them asking the real question: Why do other social networks not demonstrate the hostility to AI that masto/fedi do given that the latter seems to align with public sentiment?
Ie: the complaint is the lack of manipulation.
JP@reflex @rootwyrm @davidgerard https://poll.qu.edu/poll-release?releaseid=3955 "Fifty-five percent of Americans think AI will do more harm than good in their day-to-day lives" so yeah if mastodon seems hostile to AI, it's closer to the mean position than whatever tech delusion hugbox these people are posting from.
i know of at least one person from here who has gone back to posting on twitter (yknow the nazi slop bucket) because their fee-fees were hurt by all the criticism here - cool, have fun with that!

The Age Of Artificial Intelligence: Americans' AI Use Increases While Views On It Sour, Quinnipiac University Poll On AI Finds; 7 In 10 Think AI Will Cut Jobs With Gen Z The Most Pessimistic | Quinnipiac University Poll
"The contradiction between use and trust of AI is striking. Fifty-one percent say they use AI for research, and many also use it for writing, work, and data analysis. But only 21 percent trust AI-generated information most or almost all of the time. Americans are clearly adopting AI, but they are doing so with deep hesitation, not deep trust," said Chetan Jaiswal, Ph.D., Associate Professor of Computer Science and Associate Chair, Department of Computing, Quinnipiac University School of Computing and Engineering.
@jplebreton @reflex @davidgerard you know what they call people who don't get up from the table when the Nazis sit down?
Nazis.
So yeah. We're glad to see that Nazi go, and please make sure to document them for the tribunals later.
