@Shaamba you don’t seem to understand the amount of toxins and the harm they inflict on the communities near them, which happens to usually be low income communities. An entire neighborhood has been wiped out due to just one data center…

There are poor methods for farming out there that shouldn't be done, however, farming is absolutely essential. AI doesn’t feed people. Odd take.

@Shaamba giant servers pumping out toxins near communities is uniquely bad. Locally hosted AI is fine but it also depends on how it’s being trained and the content it’s being trained on and if it continues to learn from user interaction (usually bad because misinformation).

I'm a cis woman but I also have a name that's dead to me. However, it's still my legal name because the one I want to change it to is the ones I use online today. Maybe one day I'll just say fuck it and do it anyways, but I'm also just worried about privacy and my safety. 😭

There's also the fact that since I'm a veteran and get benefits, I'd have to go to the VA to update them on my new name and they are notoriously a pain.

Officially promoted to lead for the rest of the season literally anyone who thinks I'm lazy can suck it

@luci 😆

@luci a good amount, sadly. Lol.

@tredok I love it, haha.

@tredok toots?! Is that what posts are called here? 😆

Anyone here know of a way to easily make GIF files smaller? The smallest I could get the above video in GIF form was 77MB but I need it below 10MB to post on Tumblr. :blobugh:

The compressors I have tried ruins the quality and they still don't get it under 10MB.

@wegegeld I didn't make it to begin with.

I'm slowly working on an article on AI, covering all the bad and all the good (at the end of course). Please link me to any sources not already linked at the bottom of this blog post: https://trinityblair.com/stop-generating-ai-content/

🔞 PUT YOUR AGE IN YOUR BIO BEFORE FOLLOWING ME OR I WILL BLOCK YOU!

I read bio's completely and check for a pinned post before blocking. Your age does not have to be explicitly stated. For example, "Millennial" makes it clear how old you are.

@webhat I believe they fell because of both reasons.

@luci most likely, I saw it on Bluesky first.
