Instagramista on näköjään tulossa pelkkä AI-sovellus. Artikkelissa on kuvakaappauksia siitä, että joillain käyttäjillä näkyy mahdollisuus kirjoittaa kommentteja tekoälyn avulla. (Testiominaisuus vielä siis.)

Saahan AI-kommenteilla somesta vielä vähän nopeampaa, kun ei tarvitse pysähtyä ajattelemaan, että mitä ihmisenä kirjoittaisi toiselle ihmiselle. Tehokkuus ja sisällöntuottaminen on toki tärkeämpää kuin aitojen kontaktien ja keskustelujen mahdollistaminen käyttäjille... 🙄

No Metahan on puhunut tästä omasta mahtavasta tekoälyprojektistaan jo jonkin aikaa, että ei sinänsä pitäisi yllättää, että sitä halutaan tunkea joka paikkaan.

Tulipa myös mieleen seuraavaa:

Jos henkilö A käyttää tekoälyä kommentin keksimisen henkilön B kuvasta.

Artikkelin kuvakappauksessa luki, että käyttämällä työkalua hyväksyy tekoälyehdot ja että tiedot "saattaa" siirtyä Meta AI:n hyödynnettäväksi. Jos henkilö A on siis kieltänyt aiemmin sen, että Meta ei voi käyttää A:n sisältöä tekoälyn kouluttamiseen, niin voikohan tuossa tapauksessa käydä niin, että AI-kommentteja tekemällä sen henkilön A kieltokin jotenkin purkautuu, koska "hyväksyy ne ehdot"? En yllättyisi, jos näin olisi, koska Meta haluaa jengiltä kaiken datan.

Open Source Infrastructure has an AI problem



https://tube.kockatoo.org/w/woce36hTzF6JdnBiBEaRZJ

And nice summary from niccolove@fosstodon.org about the current situation https://thelibre.news/foss-infrastructure-is-under-attack-by-ai-companies/

AI scraping bots are actively damaging the web. They don’t follow rules, they’re careless and sloppy, and they pretend to be regular web browsers. Genuine users and bots are being hurt by this, because it’s a DDoS attack that knows how to fly just below the radar at all times.

This is an unprecedented attack on the open web. It’s not just a few kids with some hacked servers - it’s startups motivated by greed.

You can’t tell them to knock it off, because they’re anonymous cowards. You can file an abuse report with their host, but they’ll just go set up elsewhere.

We've entered the Era of the AI wars, AI scrapers are openly ignoring robots.txt and other measures designed to tell bot website visitors to behave in a certain way.

If that's how it's going to be let's get into an arms race then. There's open source tools like Anubis, Cloudflare announced AI Labyrinth. This won't be the end of AI scrapers, they will get better and so will these tools and so many resources will be wasted on a problem that was already resolved if the bots worked properly

How Meta and OpenAI pirated the world's books to train their LLMs on high quality written text in multiple languages - because legal access, they felt, would be too slow and costly.

We are working on combating the current bot account waves. As they decide our measures are effective, they are likely to attempt attacks on other servers as well. Please be patient with the admin and moderation staff across the fediverse. Large server administrators looking for additional information are welcome to contact us by email at staff (at) mastodon.social.

I hate this sort of dark patterns so much, the trick was to click on Skip. Thanks Microsoft.

#Google ha annunciato che dalla prossima settimana l'intero processo di sviluppo di #Android verrà spostato dietro porte chiuse, abbandonando definitivamente il modello ibrido che ne ha caratterizzato l'evoluzione fin dalla nascita. Una mossa che, sebbene motivata da ragioni tecniche e di efficienza interna, solleva interrogativi sul futuro della natura #open_source della piattaforma e sul rapporto tra Google e la comunità di sviluppatori indipendenti. 🤦‍♂️

Google will develop Android OS behind closed doors starting next week https://9to5google.com/2025/03/26/google-android-aosp-developement-private/

This is some bs. If AOSP development is made less publicly accessible it does NOT " simplify things for developers" but rather it hinders it for de-googled privacy respecting ROMs and their device ports. The need for continued and ramped up efforts developing alternative mobile OS's, like Ubuntu Touch, Sailfish OS, Droidian, Mobian, Postmarket, etc. is even more apparent with this move by Google.

Boiling the frog, slowly… As more of these terrible decisions keep stifling Android up to a point where it becomes just a vessel to Google’s proprietary garbage (as it has been the case for many years already for a lot of things), it should be a wake up call for mobile Linux to keep improving and do it faster.

🎨 “Miyazaki ha ragione”

L’ultimo aggiornamento di OpenAI per la generazione di immagini ha inondato i social di opere in stile Studio Ghibli. Ma c’è un problema: non è magia, è deriva algoritmica.

🌀 Perché Miyazaki ha ragione:

L’animazione non è un copia-incolla di modelli addestrati su opere altrui.

L’AI trasforma l’arte in un meme infinito, svuotandola di intento e contesto.

🤖 Serve una discussione seria:

Etica dell’AI: chi guadagna sullo stile di Ghibli?

eminem:

The Microsoft support forums, in their mission to be the most useless website on the internet, has found a new trick: You don’t need humans to write low quality non-answers. AI pretending to be an employee can do it just as well!

#XSF Announcement

Today the #XMPP Standards Foundation publishes an Open Letter to urge #Meta to adopt XMPP for messaging #interoperability.

It’s time for real interoperability. Let’s make it happen.
