The API is so cheap someone is going to do it anyways…
Yeah, I remember when Reddit promised similar things…
“we promise ;)”
Nah, first you gotta get comfortable for a couple of years.
It’s basically pig butchering for social networks.
To be fair, “they” could probably train AI on Lemmy data, they just won’t ask for permission and won’t be charged for it
…for now.
“Bluesky has not been offered enough money to scrape user data for AI”
They also said it was decentralized which is not true.
I don’t believe this.
well there’s a protocol but everyone is on the main one, i don’t think theres even a non personal instance.
Bluesky is VC backed. They’ll want to make money down the road, and they’ll definitely train AI soon if not already.
Maybe the VC’s are dying soon and they wanted to do something useful with their exorbitant wealth before they die
Lol
Yet
Well, it will train it’s AI on everyone else’s posts. Just not your posts.
Who owns this? Another insane rich, right wing techie?
Oh it will as soon as the investors demand more ReTurN oN iNvEsTmEnT.
Then we leave that platform too. I have zero loyalty. Zero.
But they’ll have stragglers just the same as any major social media site. Even though many here have standards they won’t easily abandon, there are scores of people that won’t even know if/when AI started being used on the site or would care enough to leave if they did.
Plus every time we leave a platform we need to find or build a new one. The time it takes to get others to migrate and develop into a worthwhile community is hard to predict and it may not even work out. It sucks social media is such shit anymore, but it seems inevitable that it will remain that way given the landscape of the Internet at this point.
I say this as someone who’s drifted from Fark to Digg to Reddit to Lemmy over the past 20-25 years 🎈 (zero loyalty as well)
I only have it because my family chose that over Mastodon. Mastodon is better.
It’s a Public Benefit Corp structure, so legally investors have very little power.
Until they restructure the way OpenAI did.
Won’t train AI on your posts
until we reach critical mass of users.yet

It’s open to the public. So, many other orgs are certainly doing it anyway.
The same can be said of lemmy, mastodon or any publically accessible forum
Absolutely. I worked somewhere where we routinely had alarms go off due to botnets swarming us with weird (and obnoxious) massive download tactics (of publicly available user generated content, that is).
If it can be gotten by anyone, it will be gotten by LLM trainers.
“Well, WE won’t train on your data. But this subsidiary company we created on the other hand…”
