Протест и сопротивление

@libreoffice@fosstodon.org Good! Getting rid of corporate influence in your org is the way to go however painful it might seem. Oracle promised to keep developing MySQL when they took over. Instead, MySQL has been slowly dying ever since because Oracle wants to sell their main product. Red Hat promised to leave CentOS alone. They killed CentOS immediately. It's pretty tricky to be more evil than Oracle, but they managed somehow. Corporate rot forced the Firefox team to abandon privacy guarantees.

@evacide It's good that you left that cesspool. I'm a little surprised it took so long. Musk's Twitter stands against everything the EFF is fighting for, platform neutrality most of all. They abuse the so-called "Community Notes" to push far right propaganda. They give a blue check to every trollbot. Their algorithm sorts comments to put the worst of them first. At least, so it was when I left. I never actually looked back, but I doubt things are any better now.

@evacide@hachyderm.io However, the inherent unreliability of the LLMs (yes, the LLMs - there's no such thing as AI) will enable ICE to say "it's all the computer's fault!" which is the actual point. They want to keep murdering people and then shift the blame. #AIDoesNotExist #AIHoax

@libreoffice@fosstodon.org It's always the same: wherever corporations are allowed to interfere, the Free/Libre part is gone, even if OSS formally remains.

@evacide The supposedly serious media should stop using tabloid clickbait titles. First, Altman controls no-one's future, not even his own. Second, he's a known liar and asking if he can be trusted is the cheapest, laziest clickbait of all. This bubble will burst. LLMs will join crypto, nfts and web3.0 in the tech dumpster. As for accountability, every bubble is just a ponzi scheme. The organizers could be prosecuted accordingly. What is missing is political will.

@climatenewsnow One can only hope that oil and gas lobbyists are also excluded. Without them and without Trump's cronies, we can finally expect a positive outcome. #ClimateChange #JustStopOil #PollutersOut

@MichaelEMann@fediscience.org The author's claim that the letter was written by an LLM is highly misleading. At most, maybe, the LLM was used to extract and categorize some talking points. I've been working in IT for over 30 years. Machines have no agency. Programmable machines will *never* be able to think. A machine will never tell you that you're right or wrong unless the algorithm literally forces it to do so in a very straightforward "hello world" way. #AIDoesNotExist #AIHoax
