I was also adding to the discussion. You commented something it reminded you of, I commented the difference between the two. This may be an important point for those who are not familiar with either of these technologies.

Yeah I believe it's loading everything over the net. I haven't looked super closely into it. I'm not sure what, if any, practical applications there are for this. Seems like it's just a fun impractical project. I'm here for it. But you're right about it being terrifying lol.
This is different (and far less practical than Apple's approach). This one doesn't download the OS and store it, it pulls the files from Google drive every time they're accessed, so it's incredibly slow by comparison, but is technically running from the cloud. The Apple one downloads everything it needs and stores it, then pulls from that local copy.
Fair enough. I didn't know that. Hopefully they don't abuse their position, but at least it's not a full ownership situation I guess.
Fedora is upstream of Red Hat now. It's developed by the community, then IBM/Red Hat steal it lol.
Lol. I have no idea how Microsoft convinces these companies that they're the "secure" option. My workplace has banned any AI except copilot, because Microsoft told them copilot is secure.
I think it was a donation system. But they were making some money off it so 🤷
Yeah for the record I think it's a good thing, but wanted to point out how the supply/demand system so often finds ways to keep screwing the consumer when demand reduces.
How many EVs will it take for fuel prices to start decreasing? Or do prices only react to increased demand 🙃
Oh yeah I'm sure you predicted LLMs, and that they would need ridiculous amounts of training data wayyyy back in 2005 when Reddit started lol. Super easy to predict. Good job bud.
They wouldn't have posted if they knew this was going to happen. They posted because it was fun, not for this.
They may be morally opposed to AI (as there are many valid reasons to be opposed to it), or they may just have wanted to have been able to make an informed decision before posting, but by retroactively training the AI on their posts they've robbed them of the agency to make that decision.
That's why they're upset.
Yeah it's very common unfortunately. I didn't intend to undermine your contribution or anything. Sorry for that regardless.
