Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Please also avoid duplicates.

Comments and post content must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

If everyone was completely boycotting this machine learning bullshit, they wouldn't stand a chance pushing it. Apps "offering" LLM bullshit? Use other software.

Support chat forces chatbot on you? Call them by the number on the imprint. And if that doesn't work - send them a letter with a notice period to respond.

"Vibe coders" submitting pull requests? Tell them to shove their plagiarism where the sun don't shine.

I have not had to use LLM snake oil even once to date, and I don't plan on accepting it anywhere. Ig everyone did that, the "technology" would have been dead on arrival.
