As of right now, WrangleBot is still in development. This means that there are some limitations to what WrangleBot can do.
These limitations are as follows:
WrangleBot Cloud Sync does not yet utilize end-to-end encryption to protect your data, but uses TLS-Encryption to communicate and send data between you and the cloud sync servers. This means that your data is encrypted while it is in transit, but not while it is stored on the cloud sync servers.
We are committed to addressing these limitations and implementing new features as soon as possible. We are also committed to protecting your data and privacy. We will never sell your data to third parties, and we will never use your data for any other purpose than to provide you with the best possible experience with WrangleBot. Please review our data privacy policy here for more information.
Anyway, this looks interesting regardless. There seems to be an offline mode, so I assume this is selfhostable? What’s the backend of AI here? And are both the bot and the AI part self-hostable?
I think what and how it is used for or interpreted as should be a factor to determine whether it is appropriation of Native American culture.
I’m not a native english speaker, and often times the term in my mind can mean zodiac animals. I’m not saying they are the same thing. English is a common language, and people from other cultures may interpret the word differently.
Hence I sometimes wonder whether there are other cultures across the world that use similar terms (eg totem symbolism), or whether such term can mean different things to other cultures. A blanket ban of the specific combination of these two words in english based on one some cultures may seem unfair to others if this is true. If anyone knows or has issues with the logic, please correct me.
Yeah it felt like it, at least. The first difference about origin and era threw me off; people in general are not interested in it and would probably not list the facts like that.
It felt uncomfortable and disingenuous reading it. I would have preferred if it ended with either “This is written by Chat-GPT” or “I used Chat-GPT then edited it”. Like the TLDR/Peertube bot on Lemmy, at least they sign it with their identity when they’re bot accounts.
lol I know it’s a GUI. I asked not to be snarky but to know whether functionally they do the same thing, so I/people who have used the CLI can evaluate whether we miss anything when using that command.
Turn the passive watching into something a bit active if you can. I like watching TV, and I sometimes try to analyze the data from them. Similarly, if you like watching youtube videos, maybe examine what it is that excites you about them, if any, analyze and introspect.
agreed with the point. However, lemmy might soon be the new reddit for information, asking questions, troubleshooting.
So I guess a solution for accessing lemmy for such resources on company computer without being flagged would be good, especially this gets a bit more complicated with the decentralized nature of the fediverse (multiple domains of lemmy)
Your data don’t seem to be massive compared to the types of data people store on there. So I don’t think it’s gonna be an issue. Plus, if you deposit your data in 1 archivist place + 1 research place, the data may be used by more people. Don’t forget about licenses btw.
Scale here comes in multiple layers, including the capacity/speed at which these technologies can be deployed, as well as the breadth of domains/fields/applications they touch upon, not to mention the unintended consequences when at scale. It’s not only they are much faster, cheaper, but they come almost all at once and have the potential to affect so many fields. Heck, “GP” means general purpose in GPT. Plus the effects of scale can be extremely unpredictable that we should not underestimate (disinformation campaigns now come much cheaper and easier, trust erodes even further).
I don’t know much about history so please correct me, but photography “replacing” painting may be quite specific, that painters could probably have adapted or switched to another professions. I think one commenter stated that the transition was “smoother”. In the case of these generative techs, this affects the livelihood of a whole bunch more of people (possibly both in absolute and per-capita number) that will need to grapple with what they’re going to do with their life, and have to do it fast.
One branch of the arguments I’ve been seeing is about capability comparison, sometimes even anthropomorphizing tech/companies. While I find that interesting and valuable intellectually, I personally think the conversations need to be more about the labor aspects.
Learning takes time and people need to eat. In the name of progress, society sometimes forgets or brushes over the “casualties” it leaves behind. I think many would benefit from this tech, but let’s hope they have a meal on their table doing so.
We don’t want a dystopian where they use these techs to generate the illusions of enjoying a feast over a big hotpot, while in reality it’s just a can of tomato soup for a family of 5.
Yeah, when I discoverer her, I was in complete awe in so many ways, especially regarding the ethics of technology and the implications on society. I believe she has a show about cars some time this fall in California (I think) if you’re interested.
By the way, if you don’t mind, can you share a few words of how her works resonate with you? I’d love to know. No pressure.
This reminds me of an artistic experiment that I heard of from Lauren McCarthy about how she went on a date and was streaming the entire date for people to watch, as well as giving her things to say/do. I believe they ended up marrying. I might have butchered the description as I couldn’t remember the exact details. I wonder what folks think of the comparison with this.
did not know “kidinfluencer” is a thing. the exploitative, child labor nature of such concept, the detrimental mental health effects of such practice, on kids no less. definitely something we can live without.
