That’s part of why I clicked the article, I was confused if I read it correctly

Very cool, thank you!

This is both really cool, and really unsettling. I wonder if this research might help in the other direction as well, such as with transplants and grafts

sarcasm is already hard to understand online, even harder for generative AI

I know sometimes I would take a peek at the person’s comment history to see if they were well informed / a shill for the product. The AI can’t do that

Oops, should be fixed now

Thanks!

See if you can find a friend who owns a particular model and is comfortable letting you try it on. How it fits is the most important thing IMO.

Samsung ones seem reliable, but one big downside is that the app (Galaxy Wearable), has a number of required permissions. The app does not function without them, even if you don’t need those features. I’m not sure what the workarounds are, and maybe you can make do without the app, but here is the list:

• Calendar
• Call logs
• Contacts
• Nearby Devices
• Phone
• SMS

I was about to recommend Heliboard since that’s the best one so far IMO, but it also doesn’t have emoji search. Turns out I was using the “recent emojis” menu

That might help in the meantime till a better recommendation comes around

There actually is a bot here for that

This makes me think of people who have trouble in airports because their name is similar to someone else’s.

Only this is going to be much harder to deal with

Wouldn’t they be? They could measure how likely it is that someone clicks on the generated link/text

It could also be A/B testing, so not everyone will have the AI running in general

Most of the details are things that you might already know, or assumed was happening, but the article is a helpful resource for links, evidence, citations, and summaries

Welcome!

For this universe of instances to grow, but also to add a bit of personality to the platform! Do a bit of Reddit and add customization options for each community, like on the Minecraft Subreddit of old Reddit that I’ve always smiled at.

For sure! We don’t talk enough about how much customization there is for Lemmy. There is a wide variety of mobile apps that do things in different ways, and userscripts/userstyles to customize the desktop interface. A lot of instances are also running multiple frontends, each maintained by a different dev or team.

For example, our instance is running:

• Voyager interface at voyager.lemmy.ca
• Photon interface at photon.lemmy.ca
• Alexandrite interface at alex.lemmy.ca

Many possibilities, and I’m hoping we can see community customization too someday :)

This browser extension “would allow Facebook users to automatically unfollow their friends, groups, and pages, and, in doing so, to effectively turn off their newsfeeds, which Facebook algorithmically sorts to drive user engagement,” the Knight Institute said in a statement.

Interesting, I’ve been doing that manually for a while now (not Facebook though, I haven’t opened that feed in years).

Here’s an article from 2021:

Which do you recommend?

Do you have any guides or tips for others that might want to do the same?

‘clean up your PC’ type programs get sketchy, so reliable recommendations would be appreciated

I must have had a very surface level understanding of what it was. The parts I saw previously were about finding which charities to donate to and career development.

I’ve got more to read about for sure

Looks like it’s open source, but very dead

• Sorting by new gets around 1-3 posts a day, site wide

• the top post of all time was 6 years ago and it was discussing the shut down of Voat

So while they might not have recent hate speech, it seems like that’s the community that started there. Sort by top all to see the context

rise to cultish ideas such as effective altruism

I hadn’t heard of any controversies around EA, it always seemed like a positive thing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_altruism

So what I’m getting is that the philosophies aren’t the problem, but rather it’s members of the community doing unethical things in the name of the movement

• Sam Bankman-Fried

• Bay Area Misogyny

In a 2023 Time magazine article, seven women reported misconduct and controversy in the effective altruism movement. They accused men within the movement, typically in the Bay Area, of using their power to groom younger women for polyamorous sexual relationships.[147] The accusers argued that the majority male demographic and the polyamorous subculture combined to create an environment where sexual misconduct was tolerated, excused or rationalized away.

Still bad and needs calling out

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misskey

My understanding is that Misskey is a lot older, from before the Fediverse and ActivityPub was a thing. It’s very popular in Japan, so it might not have as much content from other places.

Firefish (formerly known as Calckey) is an actively developed fork of Misskey that hopes to add many requested community features.

So firefish was started because Misskey development slowed (or stopped?), but it has had issues recently
