nagaram@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is a celebrity you used to really like, but don't anymore?1·27 days agoWeird. There used to be screen shot receipts I saw years ago.
Maybe she scrubbed it and turned a leaf? I hope so at least because B’Elanna was my favorite character.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Samsung teams up with Glance to use your face in AI-generated lock screen adsEnglish72·29 days agoThat’s crazy.
Anyways I’m gonna pitch never buying a Samsung phone again to the HR people if this comes true.
I am a fan of LLMs and what they can do, and as such have a server specifically for running AI models. However, I’ve been reading “Atlas of AI” by Kate Crawford and you’re right. So much of the data that they’re trained on is inherently harmful or was taken without consent. Even in the more ethical data sets it’s probably not great considering the sheer quantity of data needed to make even a simple LLM.
I still like using it for simple code generation (this is just a hobby to me so Vibe coding isn’t a problem in my scenario) and corporate tone policing. And I tell people non stop that it’s worthless outside of these use cases and maybe as a search engine, but I recommend Wikipedia as a better start almost Everytime.
I was honestly impressed with the speed and accuracy I was getting with Deepseek, llama, and Gemma on my 1660ti.
$100 used and it was seconds to get responses.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is a celebrity you used to really like, but don't anymore?51·29 days agoIt’s not a Lemmy thread without some Star Trek references
Robert Beltran (Chakotey), Roxan Dawson (B’Elanna), and Manu Intiravmi (Icheb).
All three of these actors fell off after ST:Voyager and became vile conservative shit posters. I know Robert especially likes to respond to anti Trump or anti Trump Policy tweets the other ex cast members make with “both sides” arguments.
It’s sad in my eyes, but I do hold ST on a pretty high pedestal.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Who is a celebrity you used to really like, but don't anymore?123·29 days agoGotta protect those Video Game movie deals.
Don’t wanna risk that Ganon cast in the Zelda Movie
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why selfhosted social media protocols are hated ?English3·30 days agoDespite everything. I was considering giving it a try, just to see.
But your right, if there’s a CSAM community on there I would inevitably host it to.
So I will not be trying plebbit

nagaram@startrek.websiteto Technology@lemmy.world•Pro-AI Subreddit Bans 'Uptick' of Users Who Suffer from AI DelusionsEnglish45·30 days agoI think Terry A Davis would have found god in chat GPT and could have figured out the API calls on TempleOS
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•[is this LEGIT ?] Piracy Stewie on Instagram: "Free chat gpt tutorial!! Halal method at the end!!"English18·1 month agoI just assume anything that promises free stuff on Instagram reels is in fact a scam or a hack.
Also I’m not getting on that shit site to confirm it’s true.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Why do, relatively, so few of you set an avatar for your profile?2·1 month agoMy avatar is also partially AI generated. I GIMPed the Zizek face from one of his movie posters though.
I’m used to people calling me out for the Zizek part and that hasn’t happened on Lemmy ever lol.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Help extracting kindle booksEnglish4·1 month agoLots of places do a better job providing DRM free or DRM Lite ebooks (Chicago press only ties your name to the files so you’d have to doxx yourself to share it, but you can share it), but the sheer library of self published books on Amazon is hard to find.
There’s an author I’ve become good friends with who I pay him (in coffee) for his books because I disagree with giving Amazon a cent. But he noted that’s just where the masses are still and it’s hard to break that momentum.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What tv shows would be more enjoyable slowed-down?3·1 month agoThere are so many pieces of media that need much slower pacing. The Sequel Star wars movies for one.
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Release v0.6.11 · open-webui/open-webuiEnglish21·1 month agoAn AI project that’s ultimately just trying to cash out? Say it ain’t so!
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How I’m building a micro-income system using GPT + PayhipEnglish3·1 month agoChecked the videos you posted
This is just a ChatGPT front end isn’t it?
More I’m even more curious what you’re doing here. Are you selling access to your own API key for $30? Why LMAO
nagaram@startrek.websiteto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•How I’m building a micro-income system using GPT + PayhipEnglish6·1 month agoOkay so it’s something I can use to automate some sort of data processing and then be compensated for it.
How is it processing the data?
Where am I getting the data?
What is it doing to the data?
Who is paying me for processed data?
Linux everywhere and then Windows VM labeled “Shitty Spyware Do Not Open”
Myself and Sasquatch.
I could see that as a privacy measure.
Everything on Lemmy is open anyways but maybe the maintainer didn’t want to be the guy to make Lemmy data that accessible. So it’s a limitation. You can only have Lemmy data if you are hosting the server and the community.
Whack. I just set up a Forgejo too.
