If not hosting anything is ok for you, deltachat allows you to share locations to people in a chat. It’s fully e2ee. You can use it with existing relays, but if you want you can host one that will be useful to everyone: https://chatmail.at/

I think there are 2 levels here: basic federation, where you can follow a channel on another instance and comment there, is opt-out like the rest of the fediverse. In fact you can even comment from Mastodon. The platform-level following is another thing, that enables other uses.

The issue of search is unrelated to that, it’s the same as with other fediverse platforms: search only searches on the current platform. But peertube also allows you to search on global indexes:

And, of course, you can use Sepia Search, a curated index of instances by the people behind peertube:

Le truc imbattable pour un site statique, c’est d’aller voir le Chaton du coin

Pas besoin de sotir le méga datacenter. Parce qu’entre les hébergeurs commerciaux tu auras toujours un statut de client, tu participeras toujours à un truc méga-polluant et basé sur le profit.

no, I was talking about the initial mistake that many people do, which is the fediverse/mastodon mixup

I’m talking specifically about calling the network, ie the interconnection of independent softwares, as “mastodon”. It’s not about explaining how mastodon works, it’s implying everything works this way. This very platform we are using is definitely not mastodon, but is definitely part of the fediverse

calling the network “mastodon”

calling the network “mastodon”

fediverse and atproto support, let’s not make the same mistake as fediverse/mastodon (edit: calling the network “mastodon” when it isn’t. Bluesky has many problems and should be avoided but there’s other parts in this network that are building independence: see blacksky, or microcosm.blue)

C’est incroyable d’être aussi stéréotypé que ça.

C’est qui qui a incendié ton fablab ? Je suis pas d’accord avec toi donc c’est forcément moi ? Tous les gens qui s’opposent à l’IA ont brûlé ton fablab ? Est-ce que je te traite de pédocriminel parce que yen a qui utilisent l’IA ? Un peu de rigueur stp

Si tu penses que l’IA est purement algorithmique c’est que tu fermes volontairement les yeux sur la politique. Tu veux juste pas la voir mais il y a une vision politique bien précise de l’IA. La domination est au coeur de son idéologie. Quelle que soit sa forme, appeler quelque chose spécifiquement IA (et pas juste llm, ou machine learning, ou…) c’est toujours de la domination de l’homme, généralement blanc, sur tout le reste. Ce que fait l’IA ne sort pas de nulle part, moi aussi j’aimerais bien que ça pousse tout seul sur les arbres et ya qu’à se baisser mais c’est pas ça la réalité. Il n’y a pas d’intelligence sans définir ce que c’est et oh surprise, la totalité de ses fondations sont faites par des hommes blancs dominants, dont certains ouvertement racistes quand on regarde dans quel but les tests de QI ont été inventés. Une intelligence artificielle n’est jamais créée dans le but d’être autonome mais toujours utilisée. La totalité de l’histoire du terme est solidement ancrée sur de la domination de l’homme sur le reste.

Utilise llm ou autre si tu veux parler strictement technique, mais attends-toi à ce qu’on te dise qu’on ne peut pas aborder la technique en faisant comme si les aspects sociaux n’existaient pas, ça n’a aucun sens.

Le choix mélenchon ou un autre pous représenter la gauche au 2nd tour, c’est un peu le choix entre celleux qui sont de droite mais ne voteront pas ED, et celleux qui ne votent pas/plus parce que ce système est mauvais. Celleux dont on parle tout le temps vs celleux dont on ne parle jamais. Comme groupe à convaincre c’est pas du tout dit qu’on connaisse vraiment la taille du 2e, et pour rester aux us l’exemple de Mamdani a montré que c’est possible, surtout quand autant de gens sont constamment décentrés

À partir du moment où il y a compétition, par définition, on ne peut pas être d’accord. Le problème principal c’est l’électoralisme, dont dérive la structure de partis (et des partis). Blame the game not the players

ah oui les datacenter faits en terre-paille compostable oui

Je crois que t’as pas compris que la critique n’est pas sur la technologie mais bien spécifiquement sur les fondations politiques et écologiques de l’IA. Personne ici ne se plaint des fab-labs. Ça serait bien d’être un peu sérieux dans tes arguments

I think you can’t really handle what “human activity” means and how it affects everything, but if you’re advocating for preservation of literally human life on the planet, avoiding diseases spread and all, it’s something you should get yourself acquainted with

Unused land isn’t useless land. Every bit of land, grass, tree, rock currently has a place and destroying/changing it has consequences. We can’t just assume that unused (by humans) land is usable (by humans) land, like white settlers have a habit to do

Do people actually discover projects by randomly wandering on github though

I mean, it’s all links, a link to github or a link to codeberg won’t change much

Maybe it’s not democracy, then, and we should stop calling it that

Le “mouvement” HLM ?

I’m sorry but you are just showing you don’t know what AI is about. AI isn’t a shop-bought meal. It’s paying a white supremacist who pinky-promises you he’ll feed people you just have to give him money. The white supremacist chooses what he wants to do with the money: maybe he’ll feed people because they’re white, maybe he’ll beat people because they’re black, but one thing is for sure: he will always work for his own benefit. Not for others, not for you, and certainly not for disabled people.

The correct comparison with AI is not, as many people say, a neutral tool. AI is a political project aiming at domination of a large part of the population. The apt comparison is slavery. Yes, it can be very useful ! It’s free workforce, you don’t need to argue with it, concede anything, and things just get done. Slavery is fine if you’re part of the dominating part of the population, just like AI is fine if you’re part of the dominating part of population. If you’re on the other side you will always be exploited, dehumanized, tortured (yes, subjecting people to constan horrors in the name of “training” is torture)

Let’s redo your analogy now:

I’ve been cooking for the homeless but I’m getting tired. Is it ok to ask slaves to cook meals for me so I can give the meals to homeless ?

Slavery, and AI, isn’t going to help the homeless or the disabled. Destroying the earth, appropriating others’ art and work and knowledge for personal profit is not helping, it’s actively hurting.

What is at stake here, really, is your own appreciation of the goods vs the bads of AI. If the literal anti-democratic project is acceptable because it makes you feel like a good person (“I’m helping people !”) then there is a big work to be done to unravel that. When your personal opinion of yourself is more important than the actual good you might do, something is wrong.

There is a huge difference between not taking care because it’s not important to you, and not taking care because you can’t. It’s a cop out to mix up both.

It’s completely ok to acknowledge that you can’t do it, and to ask around for others to relay you. That’s society at work doing good things for all of us, and that’s how we get out of all this mess. It’s perfectly fine !

Using AI for

no

I find it tiring

The problem with disabled people isn’t the disability, it’s the behaviour of non-disabled people putting them under, willingly or not. You being tired of that ir actively putting them under. Yes, it’s tiring to take care of people, it’s work. There’s no goind around that. Treating people as equals requires taking care of them, and until you take that as normal (just like brushing your teeth or doind the laundry or sweeping the floor at your place is work, but you still do it) you will be belittling them.

The change needs to happen on your side, on your conception of humanity and society. AI is not going to help you
