Berkeley Law bans AI in classes by default, because clearly the #future of legal #education is learning how to make fire and wheel from scratch. 🔥🚴‍♂️ Meanwhile, students are left wondering if they'll need to submit assignments via carrier pigeon next semester. 🐦📜

Sometimes the jokes write themselves. One of the biggest AI benefactors is banning AI contributions.

🤖 Oh, joy! The GCC committee rolled out an AI policy, only to ban AI-generated content. It's like hiring a chef and telling them they can't use pots or pans. 🥄👨‍🍳 Expect bots to shed a single, binary tear. 😢

@janantos @thefish @akmur I've learned how to program but was never a professional coder myself.

However, I do fancy some #PIM tools I'd like to use. If there's nothing on the market, I code them myself in Python - the only language I'm at least confident with.

Some of my programs are enhanced by #LLM (test cases, new features to existing code, ...) and a few projects were #vibecoded from scratch to end. That's because I would not have invested my spare time and vibe-coded (but working) is better to me than not existing at all. I think I can judge the security implications for me during coding as well as for the users during execution time.

I do have a small Claude subscription and have access to good local models as well.

Those are my personal trade-offs for now.

I respect LLM resentments and I share them for the most part. However, it always depends on how you're using a tool.

Hold onto your memes, folks! Vine is officially returning as 'Divine,' and they're not just bringing back those iconic 6-second loops – they're outright banning AI-generated videos. A bold move in today's tech landscape. Will this set a new standard, or is it just a fleeting trend?

I just removed #DuckDuckGo as my default search engine and from my search engines in general, because they keep promoting their AI bullshit and because the ddg seaches for "ban ai", "ai ban" and the same in German yields 0 results - while when removing the quotes you get a lot of AI propaganda.

I now use @Mojeek and hope I won't be disappointed (PS: I already am. Mojeek is also AI bs.).

On mobile I used the ddg app as my browser the past months and since I don't have it in me to do the research for the least suckiest mobile browser again I'll see how long I'll make it without a browser.

Lineage OS straight up freezed for half a minute because I dared to deinstall the default browser app.

Maybe I'll soon switch to a feature phone anyway. My dad is one of my most important contacts on Signal and his old iPhone refuses to update Signal, so he'll be out soon.

Also I don't want to depend on toxic F-Droid anymore.
