LLMs are one version of AI. It's just one tiny part of AIs that are used every day, from chess bots to voice transcription, but they also are AI.

That's just ridiculous, you can also just play poker without any money for fun

~~Would be interesting though~~

The Supreme Court is upholding the rule of law. If Musk refuses to take action on the massive propaganda and disinformation campaigns that are rampant on his platform and lead to a fascist (like a literal fascist who praised the military dictatorship and openly said it's only mistake was not to torture enough) getting elected, banning it shows that the democracy is still defensive and able to protect itself.

We can't let tech monopolies just ignore any democratic rule and do whatever they want.

They already got forced in the EU

you can still talk to friends, but not about the vacation

Hmm… interesting. I think I'd still yes, but as I really enjoy talking to friends about things I currently do, rather reluctantly (and not for a very long one).

With your explanation, I can see how you get to that interpretation, although mine would probably different (mainly because I associate post with A: showing it to a larger group simultaniously and B: having a picture or video (but that's just due to my personal media usage)).
I think I might place the line between a small group of friends you tell it and a larger public Discord server(?) as that mostly feels like the difference between privately talking and posting it to a bigger audience, but it's complicated.

it’s more 'would you go on a vacation and just enjoy it, or do you only want to go on vacation so people know you went?' yeah, that makes sense. I see. I mean I would definitely go to a vacation to enjoy it (and not to show it off or something, in fact my last Instagram post is now over a year ago and I don't really use Twitter or other personal social media like that). But not talking about it would still be hard as I basically talk to people every day about what I'm doing, where I'm going, what projects I'm working on, etc. So having to stop sharing that would be different to my usual way how I spend time with people. (But I'd just do it all afterwards, often in vacations I don't have much time anyways to talk to people about it and just catch up later in a longer talk.)

Shitposting on Lemmy would still be a post and prohibited though

The problem is that there is no clear definition of a post. Sure, a tweet or an Instagram is a post. A private message to a friend is probably not a post. But what if you send images of your vacation in a discord server with many friends? The line gets fishy, and if I couldn't talk to friends, independently to the trip itself, while on vacation, I would also say no.

Neither are you on TikTok, unless you actively go looking for it

That's just genuine nonsense. The whole point of platforms like TikTok are the modern recommender systems that (simplified) lead to algorithmic radicalisation. Because these systems heavily optimise towards user engagement, they naturally spread misinformation and controversial content.
And because this kind of content statistically gets more user engagement as people commend on it and spend more time with it, it spreads quicker. This has also e.g. been confirmed by a leaked internal Facebook memo.

And additionally, these systems are personalised, so when you start to interact with it, you get more and more similar content. This leads to a radicalisation pipeline in which the platforms normalises these positions in echo chambers to you.

I don't get your point. I'm against tech monopolies and I hate Google. I want Facebook to be split up and think that the current tech companies are way to powerful, see this video by Last Week Tonight. I use duckduckgo and try to avoid google services.

Don’t pretend to be doing any of this for any kind of moral high ground when you can’t even be bothered to look into something before arguing for it.

Lmao. How would you get the thought I wouldn't have "looked into this". That sounds like antivax level of arguments.

Everything you said is basically wrong.

And this gives me the feeling I'm much better informed than you tbh.
Because no, what I wrote is factually correct, read for example this, this or this or just so many more articles, outlining detailed how TikTok censors content made by minorities, talking about the Uighur camps or so much more.

I feel like you can't grasp the thought that someone knows how bad many tech companies are and still can see that content behind TikTok is at least as terrible. And what I'm writing isn't any more boomer-like than what you write, you even use the same talking points but are just ignoring any of TikTok's flaws.

Am I a Reddit boomer when I’m 21 and like (some) Tiktok-esque kind of content?

I’ve never used TikTok, but not because I don’t get the idea of using audio as meme template or because I don’t like short videos. But just because that specific platform itself is so vile.
Not just talking about funding the Chinese government, TikTok e.g. reduces reach of neurodivergent people. Even worse, it censors information against China‘s authoritarianism and much more.

Why can’t I be happy that this awful platform loses reach? The content itself will be kept, there are enough copycats.

Also, Lemmy is full of people that stopped using Reddit for ethical reasons. So it’s not surprising many are against TikTok as well tbh.

The true horror is her hand
