I know its a bit of a hot topic but I’ve always seen people (online anyways) are either a hard yes or absolutely no on using AI. There are many types of “AI” that have already been part of technology before this hype, I’m talking about LLMs specifically (ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc…). When this bubble burst its absolutely not going anywhere. I’m wondering if there is case where you’ve personally used it and found it beneficial (not something you’ve read or seen somewhere). The ethics of essentially stealing vast amount of data for training without compensation or enshitification of products with “AI” is a whole other topic but there is absolutely no way that the use of the technology itself is not beneficial somehow. Like everything else divisive the truth is definitely somewhere in the middle. I’ve been using lumo from proton for the last three weeks and its not bad. I’ve personally found it useful in helping me troubleshoot issues, search or just use it to help with applying for jobs:

• its very good at looking past SEO slop plaguing the internet and it just gets me the information I need. I’ve tried alternative search engine (mojeek, startpage, searXNG, DDG, Qwant, etc…) Most of them unfortunately aren’t very good or are just another way to use google or bing.

• I was having some wifi problem on a pc i was setting up and i couldn’t figure out why. i told it exactly what was happening with my computer along with exact specs. It gave gave me some possible reasons and some steps to try and analyze my computer it was very very useful.

• I’ve been applying for so many jobs and it so exhausting to read hundreds of description see one tiny thing in the middle that disqualifies me so I pass it my resume with links and tell it to compare what i say on my resume and what the job is looking for to see if im a fit. When i find a good job i ask rewriting tips to better focus on what will stand out to a recruiter (or an application filtering system to be real).

I guess what I’m trying to say is it cant all be bad.

For days, xAI has remained silent after its chatbot Grok admitted to generating sexualized AI images of minors, which could be categorized as violative child sexual abuse materials (CSAM) in the US.

This magazine is no longer legitimate.

According to a new study from a team of researchers in Europe, vibe coding is killing open-source software (OSS) and it’s happening faster than anyone predicted.

Thanks to vibe coding, a colloquialism for the practice of quickly writing code with the assistance of an LLM, anyone with a small amount of technical knowledge can churn out computer code and deploy software, even if they don’t fully review or understand all the code they churn out. But there’s a hidden cost. Vibe coding relies on vast amounts of open-source software, a trove of libraries, databases, and user knowledge that’s been built up over decades.

Open-source projects rely on community support to survive. They’re collaborative projects where the people who use them give back, either in time, money, or knowledge, to help maintain the projects. Humans have to come in and fix bugs and maintain libraries.

I’m trying to get back into making art and I know having a decent place to share it with others is essential. No point in making something nobody will see.

I’m hoping someone here knows about a decent platform to share content, which also has a No AI stance (and hopefully, measures taken against ai mining).

So far the only one I heard of was Cara, and it’s not bad but it didn’t hook me. Maybe I should give it another go, I haven’t checked it in a long time. Last time I checked, it relied on artists using nightshade and other poisons, but iirc those methods are always lagging behind in the arms race, and require the artist constantly re-updating with newly poisoned versions of their work. This can get very time consuming.

I know Artstation lets you label no ai on your work, but I don’t think that actually does anything that protects my work from getting mined.

One important thing is that I need to be able to post with my real name, so I don’t believe another community here will be the final answer. However, having said that, if you know of any solid art or artist communities where these topics are discussed frequently feel free to point me that way. I would still benefit from getting in touch with people in a similar situation as myself.

Please help me recover some faith in humanity… Thanks
