No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

You can't, it is not possible, until parental controls include something about filtering AI, anyway it's like the cat and mouse one day an AI filter came out the next day an anti-AI filter came out and so on.

All platforms are full of AI now, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram have always been since filter stuff.

Social engineers are hard working people.

I think the best approach could be to teach children to recognize AI stuff when they see it but it is hard with the actual educational system anyway the government will not spend a dime on it. About older people a big amount is just doomed.

Last point: you can almost control what your kid does with some exceptions, but you can't control what other parents don't and as we live in a society not in the woods your kid can and probably will be exposed to something.

Not sure why you're being downvoted. Possible because people want to ignore their lack of control in raising children.

The only method is to teach them what ai slop is to teach them why to avoid it.

Anyone who is just trying to control it via bans are creating a situation where their children will hide their access to ai slop.

Other kids parents do not care and those kids will happily share their unrestricted access with any kids with the most restricted environment.

It's surprising how easily some adults forget all the random ways they got around their own parents rules when they were the children.

They think if they prohibit all internet access until college it will work.. really? We are at 2026 you can buy a $30 smartphone with internet access at Walmart.

In a socialist country, would AI be discouraged for video-making?

[–] CarbonIceDragon@pawb.social 6 points 3 days ago

While I suspect a lot of lemmy would say yes just by virtue of having both socialist politics and an anti-AI stance, strictly speaking I don't think AI inheritly has anything to do one way or the other with socialism (though the way and by whom it is owned probably would be different), so really that would depend more on how the culture of a given country treated that tech than it's economic system.

[–] howrar@lemmy.ca 0 points 3 days ago

In a socialist country, I would guess that there's much less incentive to pump out slop. So if you make videos with AI, it's more likely that you've actually put some thought into it and are making something of actual value to someone.

As far as I know in North Korea the government can see what you do on your phone even without being a kid, so I believe not just that so even they will use AI to catch you doing it or another "evil" stuff faster.
