I have no idea about reddit but I poison copilot data daily at work. Feeding nonsense incorrect answers and misusing the thumbs up and down feedback. Sometimes I just generate max context nonsense text over and over to try and hit the API limit. We’re not paying for the licenses because microsoft is trying to show us how awesome it is. But this week is my last week doing so because my company has decided its disabling copilot.

Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Tesla Robotaxi Stops Mid-Intersection After Running a Red Light… The Influencer Onboard Calls It “Impressive”English25·1 day agoAs dumb as this tech is in its current state, it still seems safer to me than human drivers. So far they’ve had very few accidents. Human drivers will do a dangerous maneuver to get in front of you then at the red light they’ll get out of the car and try kick your ass.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's a phrase or saying that you learned from your parents that you don't hear others saying?English2·2 days agoMy Parents would always say “Home, James dont feed the horses”. I have absolutely no idea what it means or could mean.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Do you judge people for buying stuff that you're boycotting?English7·2 days agoI dont Judge unless the person actively talks about hating that thing. For example if someone is constantly going on about how they big tech and they havent even made a single step towards moving away then yeah im going to judge. Stand by your morals.
I know someone who is always going on about how bad fast fashion is and she buys all her clothes from Shien to wear a few times. Like come on you cant expect your words to hold any weight when you say one thing and do another. I’d never say I support gay people’s rights then give money to a gay people rights crushing machine.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How can we make the Fediverse more positive and wholesome?English42·2 days agoImplement a way for users to subscribe to an updating community/user blocklist. That way new users can get rid of all the crazies and block all the ml instances.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish1·2 days agoCan you explain this “I don’t want to be subsidizing businesses that I have no role in or control over, or paying for other people to engage in their hobbies.”
I dont get why you are against giving money to companies you dont control only on the web, you surely do it a ton in everyday life. In regards to the hobby, how do you know its their hobby and even if it was its not your place to decide if they should be paid for their time. If they’re making something thats good enough for you to want to consume it then you should pay them for it.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish1·4 days agoFirst of all, prices already go up for things like netflix. This isnt aimed at subscription sites like netflix its more for pages where you browse for free at the cost of viewing ads like blogs, youtube, substack, lemmy etc. Yes prices would go up over time no doubt but the idea is that the users providing the money should lower the cost. 1000 humans visting your site should be willing to pay more than an advertiser is to show an ad to those 1000 people. Google generally pays around 5cents to 30cents for 1000 views. I dont know about you but I can split 30 cents between 1000 people, hell i’ll even double it cause im generous. I think if 1000 people are viewing your website you should get paid for providing something interesting enough for 1000 people to enjoy. If everyone gave 1cent thats $100, if everyone paid double what the ad was they’d be paying $0.0003 each.
I dont want people who write a blog that is read by many people to need to subject their readers to ads all only to get a check from google saying heres a few cents bud. We can do better, and I dont think the answer is asking people to pay a $5 a month.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish1·4 days agoYou could never have a city where no one pays maintenance and service fees.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish1·4 days agoYes things were different back then. It wasnt a national forest, it was forest in a world where no cities existed anywhere. Nothing had been built on the internet back then. You didnt have websites that served userbases in the 100s of millions. You didnt have to serve images, videos, live streams and other dynamic content. You didnt have the same security overhead now required. If the internet were only text chat over irc I wouldnt be sitting here worrying about internet funding.
I dont go to the cbd of my city and think “I wish they replaced this with a forest” because I know there are plenty of forests outside the city, and people choose to live in the city over the forest. Same for the internet and so we need to think about solving the problem instead of wishing to tear everything down.
IRC doesnt fit the requirements though. I cant send pictures or videos, I cant make little icons to react, I cant quote reply, I dont get push notifications when pinged. You may think these arent nessesary but to majority of users they are and I dont think IRC is going to adapt to include them.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish1·4 days agoThat immediately makes the Internet basically free for the rich and only partially accessible for the poor. Maybe you’re OK with that, but business models like that are partly what’s wrong with the world. In fact the Internet already has this problem. This would almost certainly move the boundary between who’s relatively rich and who’s relatively poor in the wrong direction.
Fine have government subsidies that give people $50 credit a month. Or give people the option to opt out. I dont NEED to to exist, I want it to exist. I want an easier way to pay for my internet usage rather than ads. If ads are going to pay someone 0.0014cents for my attention id rather overcut the ad and pay the webhost 0.01cent for no ads.
There’s also the question of what constitutes “a page”. What if only part of the screen refreshes? What if you refresh an existing page because it didn’t load properly, or just because? Is that a new payment?
This is the details and it can be worked out in more detail. At the moment I dont think that is relevant to work out. Just provide a way to opt out and then it can be between the hosts and the users how they set up their payments. If the hosts have prices to high or a scammy model users can switch to paying based on domain vist or choose to not pay at all. Its no different to users choosing to use an adblock when visting a website.

Please god let europe and the asian countries pick the chinese standard and leave the US sitting on its own it would be so fucking funny.

Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish8·5 days agoIdc about corporations but the internet costs and you cant get away from that. Servers and the infrastructure around them has to be paid for. And I’m happy to pay my share when I vist someones website. My issue is that my share is a few cents not a few dollars like a lot of these newpapers try and charge.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish5·5 days agoMaybe you could do it as the website sets a suggested price and the user either agrees or chooses their own. I think if the process of paying was seemless enough most people would be happy to pay and the few people putting 0 for everything probably need the money more anyway.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•To survive the AI age, the web needs a new business modelEnglish203·5 days agoCan we please just pay a cent or half a cent for each page we vist. Its like 50x what the website would get from our view with ads and its not much. I’m sure it would encourage others to start their own website as well if you could get $1 from 100 page views.
There are so many things like this news article where they want to charge me a few dollars. Bro I cant afford to pay $5 a month for every single platform that would close me 1000s.
Auth@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•how many people came to this platform due to leaving / being banned from Reddit?English5·5 days agoI got banned for being unhinged towards users who were doing (IMO) obvious nazi dogwhistles and the mods sided against me. Fuck them mods and fuck the users who accept that shit. The posters knew exactly what they were signaling.
“safety is certainly a big part of the appeal for many users – so I allow the app to alert him each time I reach my front door.” I’m finding that people are irrationally paranoid these days. They see random acts of violence in the news and think it might happen to them but its so statistically unlikely given these are already unlikely events and these people usually middle class people living in nice areas.
