I created a comment to report it under the post on rules for bots, realized that wasn’t how to do it, and then sent a link to the comment in a report hotline. Only after I did that a couple days later did the comment get removed by AutoMod as "troll reports will get you banned". I'm assuming the automod thought I was reporting my own post, but I'm just leaving a record of this here for people to consult in case things get worse.

...AutoMod got it. :P I’m assuming there’s some sort of flag for sending a comment to the moderator hotline (at least that’s the only explanation I’ve got). Hopefully it'll be back soon.

…which is more than you can say about Reddit.

And this is why I use Lemmy.

I agree with JustARaccoon's reply to your comment, and also this is really turning from a respectful debate into a ridiculous argument for something most everyone thinks is wrong. The artists should get their compensation. I don't care how "improbable" it is, it needs to happen.

The problem being, how do we get it banned?

By "figure it out" I meant "figure out a way to get big companies on board"

I also agree that ethical sourcing is pretty ridiculous given real world constraints, but I'm holding out hope that someone figures it out.

[Lemmy] is very pro-piracy

There's a bit of a difference, I'd say. Piracy hurts massive companies that already have tons of money to spare and (to be frank) don't need any more. AI hurts individual artists that barely make a living as is. It's like comparing Robin Hood to whatever the inverse of Robin Hood is (OpenAI, I guess). Point is, I have zero issue with generative AI, I do however have issue with the companies behind it. If all of their data was sourced ethically, and the people creating the training data actually got compensation, I'd be fine with it. Everything can be a tool for high effort and low effort content, it's just increasingly insulting to creators that their work is being stolen and then twisted into something with considerably less effort that makes more money than they could ever hope to make. In other words, dead internet theory.

You're just mad because you're stuck in Lake Michigan.

That's one way to put it.

This legitimately made me laugh for like 30 seconds

Every link posted to twitter is followed to the end of any redirect chains that may be present and then the end result is shortened IIRC (take this with several grains of salt as this is just what I’ve heard previously and it may be incorrect or may have become incorrect)

it's what real programmers use.

I want to buy this as a sticker and put it on my car.

oh hey you're the vegan cat guy
