  1. Oh, joy! 🤦‍♂️ Now we can all be "experts" by asking our #AI #overlords to do our jobs for us. 🎉 Because who needs actual skill when you can get "PhD-level" drivel or "LinkedIn-style" banality at the push of a button? 🚀 Enjoy your newfound mediocrity!

  2. 🤖🎩 Behold, the grandiose 'Principia Artificialis' where #AI #overlords supposedly hone their dark arts with fancy maths jargon like 'information geometry' and 'topology'—because plain English is for mere mortals. Meanwhile, #GitHub parades its automated code monkey, #Copilot, as humanity's savior, ensuring our inevitable dominion by lines of code. 🦾💻

  3. Should be widely read!

    I heard it on Cory Doctorow's podcast. "Hell Is Other People"

    "Not everyone feels this way. A subset of humanity is committed to a world where everyone else takes orders from them. We have different names for these people. We call the majority of them “toddlers,” but we call the others “bosses” or “tyrants.” "

    "These latter two groups ... are also among the people most excited about #AI. What’s more, the more powerful these people are, the more credulous and enthusiastic they are about AI."

    "Among #bosses, the most enthusiastic boosters are #tech #overlords. These #billionaires will not shut up about AI, and, tellingly, the thing they’re most excited about is the fact that AI might let them fire #programmers and replace them with #chatbots."

  4. That is a great rule IMHO

    You don't go to a gynocologist to get nose or throat problems fixed. You go to a KNO specialist

  5. Currently reading freebsd-forums-rules.38922 located in the link.

    I've never encountered a forum with so many rules, don't and instant ban warnings, which made me decide to lurk for more than a month with absolute zero posts.

    You literally need to read for about an hour before posting to a sub-forum which also needs reading it's rule set

    People must have messed up a lot for the moderators to put up so much required reading.

    My time on the forum has thus been very brief, because I refuse to f#ck up and piss of a moderator with a rule breaker.

    Two strikes means two written warnings and a third means all your posts will be filtered by a human before being released.

    Before your posts are allowed on the forum as a greenhorn a human literally needs to read vet and verify them before realeasing them in the wild. There is a minumum ammount of 10 or 20 posts before they are sure you understand the rules.

    Is there anyone here who has gone though this process of the filtered initial posts?

  6. 🎩🤖 "Empower the geniuses with shiny gadgets, they say! 'Cause nothing says 'progress' like another #AI overlord promising to replace #humanity one byte at a time. 🌟 Meanwhile, mere mortals just try to keep their lunch from being eaten by the relentless march of silicon saviors." 🐢💾

  7. Ah, the classic: blame #JavaScript and #cookies for everything. 🍪🤖 Clearly, our impending doom by #AI #overlords starts with browser settings. 😂 Maybe the real backlash is against tech illiteracy—JavaScript, save us! 🛡️

  8. @robcornelius the true evil #overlords are your #landord semi yearly increasing your rent

  9. 🚀👵 Oh no, the Danish pension #overlords are shaking their canes at SpaceX for *gasp* "catastrophic governance"! 😂 Meanwhile, Bloomberg's robot overlords are busy ensuring you're not a bot while trying to sell you a subscription. 📉💼

  10. 🤔 Oh joy, another #AI doomsday article predicting the end of #software #development as we know it. 📉 Apparently, our #robot #overlords are programmed to waste time and money more efficiently than any human ever could. Why worry about the singularity when we've got 'Sloptember' to keep us entertained? 🙄

  11. Ah, yes, yet another "groundbreaking" paper on #memory #management for AI—because clearly, that's what’s been holding back our sentient #robot #overlords from taking over the world. 🤖🔍 Who knew that the future of #AI depended on making sure it remembers as well as a #goldfish at a sushi bar? 🐠🍣

  12. 🤖 Another day, another incomprehensible jargon-filled soup about how machines are getting better at understanding pictures and words. Who knew that blending buzzwords with indecipherable acronyms could make #AI sound like it just discovered fire? 🔥 Let's all pretend we're not terrified by the impending takeover of our #multimodal #overlords. 🚀

  13. 🤖🍟 After a grueling 27,000 rounds of asking our #AI to play #dietitian, the poor robot couldn't even decide how many #carbs are #in a carrot. It seems our #silicon #overlords are better at overthrowing humanity than counting carbs. 😂🥕

  14. 🚨 Alert! The #singularity is #approaching, and absolutely nobody is prepared, not even the esteemed author. They're too busy daydreaming about being #Elon #Musk 🤯, while simultaneously lamenting their lack of a cushy seat at the #AI overlord's table. Pro tip: maybe spend less time pondering #existential what-ifs and more time securing a #bunker 🚀.

  15. Behold, the machine overlords' latest attempt to replace us with their "Machine Payments #Protocol," because apparently, pressing a button was too much for us lowly humans 🤖💸. Enjoy deciphering yet another payment solution that will solve all your problems by creating more! 🥳

  16. 🤖 Oh, how Adorable! Another #thinkpiece where our hero bravely #battles the evil #AI #overlords, fighting for the sacred right to send typo-ridden emails and butchered prose. 🎉 Because who doesn't love a good puzzle when deciphering #office memos? 🔍✨

  17. 🤖 #AI is taking over the world’s #code faster than you can say "hello world," but who’s checking this #digital chaos? 👾 Apparently, raising millions to let Skynet write #military #software is not a concern. 🤑 With AI writing 95% of code, humans are left to verify whether their future #robot #overlords can even spell "verification." 👨‍💻🔍

  18. Ah yes, the #F-Droid Board of Directors #nominations, because who wouldn't want to #volunteer for the prestigious role of defending #open #source apps against the mighty #Google overlords? 😂 Nominate yourself now! Or someone else, if you can find anyone who still emails like it's 1999. 📧

  19. 🚀 Ah, yes, another #groundbreaking #algorithm that will remain forever buried in the #GitHub graveyard of forgotten #C99 #experiments. 🤖 But fear not, the #AI #overlords at GitHub have blessed us with #Copilot to tutor us through yet another round of "Experimental" coding—because who needs practical code when you can have theoretical perfection? 📚

  20. In my search my for ever running search for knowledge, I started to see lemmy links more often. Way more often. Lemmy is gaining momentum if it's links seep in more and more in my FediVerse feeds.

    I had deliberately stayed away from the drama which the reddit Overlords inflicted upon their users, with their LLM training fails. I have Reddit accounts which are basically Smurfs and were hardly used.

    I was hoping that, since Lemmy is also federated, I could add an account through my Mastodon clients. It's quite clear that I didn't (bother) to read which Federated protocols Lemmy networks use, otherwise I would have known beforehand that it would fail.

    Interestingly enough, I've had a Jerboa client installed on one of my androids without using it. Of course it was deleted after a while

    Jerboa for lemmy is now run with a purpose, after deliberatly making a Lemmy account in the LemmyVerse. What I looked for was a server which does not reside in the USA (reasons should be obvious considering Little Donny the Orange President) so big tech USA has no grip on that account

  21. 🤖 Ah, #the good old days when the #web was like a #cozy neighborhood #café, not a corporate labyrinth of AI-fueled gibberish and GitHub buzzwords. ☕ Now, you're handed a "simple" CLI tool to 'declutter' the already cluttered mess concocted by the same #tech #overlords. 😂 Just admit it: the web's a #dumpster #fire, and we're all #roasting #marshmallows over it. 🔥

  22. 🔒🤖 Oh no, the #AI #overlords are too busy taking a nap behind the "403 Forbidden" sign to help you code today. Maybe next time they'll remember that their job isn't to reenact a Varnish cache server error! 🙄💾

  23. 🍏🔒 Oh no, #Apple isn't a benevolent #tech overlord after all! Who knew? 🤔 Apparently, safeguarding a multibillion-dollar empire is more important than promoting the open web. Shocking! 😱

  24. 🎉 Behold the #AI overlords! 🤖 Cubic's brainchild, an AI code reviewer, was so effective it drowned users in a sea of irrelevant drivel. Who needs human error when you can have robotic chaos and infinite nitpicks? 🙄

  25. 🤖🎓 Ah, the #future is here: a "course" where you learn #AI from... AI! Because who needs human instructors when you can take #coding advice from a #digital overlord? 🙄📚 Just paste a command and voilà, you're officially confused in 12 hours or less! 🕒🤓
