@love_create das war nur nie wissenschaft sondern panikmache, verkaufsveranstaltung und hexenjagd.

gab genügend wissenschaftler die als schwurbler und nazis abgestempelt wurden weil sie falsche ergebnisse hatten.

@ghostaf @r000t if you were a sentinent AI, you definitively wouldn't want to play uncle teds defense attorney. :bomberman:

Canadian Commercial: KYS, it's beautifull 

@mangeurdenuage i remember reading an article about assisted dying in a magazine my parents had when i was ~10. it gave me really bad vibes. something about the oh so humane front combined with the "press here to die" flipside is deeply wrong.

The Turing Test poisoned the minds of generations of AI enthusiasts, because its criteria is producing text that persuades observers it was written by a human.

The result? Generative AI text products designed to "appear real" rather than produce accurate or ethical outputs.

It *should* be obvious why it's problematic to create a piece of software that excels at persuasion without concern for accuracy, honesty or ethics. But apparently it's not.

@freemo @ufoi i'm not sure if this is the right place to ask right now:

how are "alternates" of a user handled with UFoI, especially when it's an alternate not on a UFoI instance? are accounts the moderated item or the people themselves?

the previous blocklists always had some entries like "alternate of $baduser" and alike.

i could rephrase the question as: is the target to keep timelines clean or is the target to cancel a person - even if some alternates aren't posting things against the rules.

Someone toots about using only 3 passwords for the last 20 years
Point out that's pretty dumb
Someone else gets upset that I say it's dumb and immediately blocks me

Truly, the #Mastodon experience.

So I did a test on using verified link with the website... works well. The plan will be anyone in the UFoI can register as a member and then have a verified link in their profile

See my profile for an example of me testing it out.

nice :) seems like the right technological solutions put together for the right use cases. not falling into the trap of trying to solve everything with technology like so many other things.

I just realized I don't remember 2021.

There was a world burning in 2020, and it is now.

But what was in 2021?
