AI might just be like any other machine or mechanism used by other mankind:

- to save need for human jobs
(and pay them less for more mundane jobs as a result of magnification of specialist or idiot / loser roles)

- to 'save' human decision-making (decrease human friction and get your way more often from top to bottom)

- Top-down-to-Tech-to-Public process as increasing leverage as human communication and skill and real community is reduced / replaced (although admittedly it wasn't perfect but a robot version not great either)

Like if git hub co-pilot can pull coding rendering you obsolete / useless (or good for that supermarket job).

The reason I stick to us and #Fediverse is because there was never really money in good things from bad / col people- they ONLY wanted to take advantage more from people like giving them debt is similar to giving job. We need a better way and even if that's cringe FreeSchool and your stuff / their stuff :) We have enough numbers to "stick it to the man" and that mentality often...

@WisdomExplained My clever response to Rumi (Sufi scholar) and also kind of real... here's the quote / question:

█ Q: Why do you stay in prison, when the door is so wide open? Rumi, Sufi scholar and poet (1207–1273)

█ A: Because at least they feed and shelter you there. And now they have internet. All without cost / less slavery that the outside world is / always was.

Prison can be the lesser of the two choices regardless of what you think benefits or possibilities of growing new children are in an outside prison AND paying for it!

Mission statement Fedipage.com... something I can support and as #bestpractices

Our mission to the community

█Open-source
We are committed to open source!

█Open standards
We only adhere to open-standards where possible, and strive to define standards where they do not yet exist.

█Community Growth
Community first. We will never sell out, bow to commercial interests, or track and collect personal data.

█Security
We designed Fedipage from the ground up with security in mind. In fact by using a static page it eliminates many attack vectors by default.

█Designed for the future
Our focus is on the future of social media by using distributed services no single person can own.

█Exposure
By enabling your static website with ActivityPub it allows your content to be shared and seen by the Fediverse.

OGG / Opus Audio format (more open than MP3) - am using more often because it saves 50% data space I've tested!

So sinks in bullet against MP3 (proprietary) much more

More elsewhere supports OGG or needs to because they now face proprietary problems or want to save money!

All handle OGG / Opus - all but few editors and some Android apps don't so if you're Android-only I understand stick to MP3 for manipulation otherwise desktop OGG/Opus is 🆗 and can now only got to MP3 if you need!)

Also crowd gives you kudos for OGG-aware people and is the right choice in the end...

OGG (Vorbis / Opus / libvorbis etc / Xiph.Org)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ogg_Vorbis

If you want more of this type of list either say here and I'll re-draft this post or click follow (or both!)
It should be a good list almost from looking at one persons account but what you might help seeing list in one post as "not these things"....

AI services (images / shortcuts)-
perhaps using you as data point and the usual - "it's ok to use until we turn on you and it aint good but too late by then"

YouTube link without filtering e.g. A good filtered link is below:
(invidious links for Ytb):
https://invidious.fdn.fr/watch?v=R3ptZ1W-FRA

Anti-capitalist media on Capitalist mediums (paradoxical stuff or just plain badpractices)

Zoom instead of Jitsi Meet
(although only recently it got way better and yea Zoom did get it together faster than open source)

Amazon for buying things

Talking about privacy and having it on advert-filled / pixel tracking site

Using or buying new products and Tech, only to forget the same happens with everything (shitification or withdrawing / rug-pulling / monopolising / power and control / holding you ransom etc)

Turning non-electric or simple things into electric and sapping more time, electricity, usage and setup of devices... etc just for basic tasks (industry encouraging "complification" which reminds me of "Californication" song lol)

Free stuff with sign-ups and registering needed (needs to be most open while able to kick out people IF really needed but isn't usually and just another gate or information scraping device to need people to signup... AND to 3rd party tools which means 4thparty/5th party/6th party data)

Playing war games, as if it's not war. (don't mind 10 mins but look at all this 'meat' heads playing endlessly and your kids too

Saying you don't like something but *never* backing up data to shift off that platform... unless FreeSchool is there in person standing over and then it gets done!!! (with consent but like pulling teeth since people are so invested and or lazy) :)

Using one thing to justify another - when 1 thing stands on it's own either as it's own value or entity without comparison or inferring it's competitive to anything else!

Encouraging people to use apps for simple things and not knowing what apps are able to do outside of what you think they do (HINT is the permission they ask at beginning and 'partners' they syndicate with... tells you all you need to know not to install)... ask me if you need better apps

Talking about things only as a victim (very allowable but as adult got to put up your own pants and run with something better and look spend time only blaming)

OK OK that's enough for now... if you want more either say and I'll re-draft this or click follow (or both!

To educate or to ignore? (A teacher's problem... and real question to you)

I am seeing great teachers FLOCK to AI... like jump all in.

Of course my feelings could be magnifying the reality (but nobody can see or should be able to see this) so I'm wondering as teacher AND student...

And I somewhat know the answer but still ask...

IF you see a teacher using bad tools and they are great in many ways... but they already answered they are not going to stop using AI, Google and basically EVERYTHING... so then how to reach them...?

I'm aware I don't need to reach them and it can be even aggressive but what next... just watch them and take the best

(hard to separate this word aggressive but worth pointing out as a sub point to question the different styles in case you see me as aggressive to you):

█A-style aggressive (my style) = 'aggressive as in task / getting to bottom of things / learning / not letting you ignore / delay too much as tactic / trying to be soft but never coward etc '

█B-style aggressive (not my style) = personal and damage against people (not looking at points etc)

So my answer is naturally I have to 'stand down' a bit as this person I'm looking at (and did ask) is set in their ways for now or not willing to address radical reform of their ways (like some people don't see Tech as political and need years to see)...

But this is hard thing to swallow as teacher or student of learning when saying internally or externally "oh dear if you would only use XYZ you'd be perfect !)...

But at least this person is so good in many ways it helps... but can make it LESS easier as I get their pop-ups whereas someone totally bad I wouldn't follow.... !!
(Doh! slap my own forehead)

@wfryer
My version of what someone else wrote adding [my comments]

”So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God [glory of people / of love].

Give no offense to Jews or to Greeks or to the church of God [or worry who else I might have missed out in this list],

just as I try to please everyone in everything I do, not seeking my own advantage, but that of many, [i do like Robin Hood type of stuff sounding like this!]

so that they may be saved. [and they save me]

Be imitators of me, as I am of Christ.“ [copy love more often, don't think of God as an object even if others do]

We are like yeast but can change some parts of our actions during the process...

"Put yeast in an environment with some sugars, and it will eat the sugars and excrete alcohol until either sugar runs out or alcohol concentration is enough to kill it." (quote from https://mstdn.social/@rysiek/111913500035373899)

We need to grow but not so fast or furious and allowing for other healthy processes to happen (love) and not just one type of game (capitalism and it's type of yeast killing things.)
