  • How likely we can defeat it with something similar to YT's own ContentID system? We download a tons of ads, process it with feature extraction, and match it on the fly to carve out those ads. A similar system to SB can be used to let people mark where the ads is, process, and share.

  • It is quite a bloat. Llama3 7B is 4.7GB by itself, not counting all the dependencies and drivers. This can easily take 10+ GB of the drive. My Ollama setup takes about 30GB already. Given a single application (except games like COD that takes up 300GB), this is huge, almost the size of a clean OS install.

  • Gnome and other desktops need to start working on integrating FOSS AI models so that we don't become obsolete.

    I don't get it. How Linux destops would become obsolete if they don't have native AI toolsets on DEs? It's not like they have a 80% market share. People who run them as daily drivers are still niche, and most don't even know Linux exists. Most ppl grown up with Microsoft and Apple shoving ads down their throat, using them in schools first hand, and that's all they know and taught. If I need AI, I will find ways to intergrate to my workflow, not by the dev thinks I need it.

    And if you really need something like MS's Recall, here is a FOSS version of it.

  • It's about precieved reputation. I have to admit Apple is really good at software and integration with a somewhat balanced approach, although I will rate their business practices a negative score.

  • I didn't say trust no one, but whom and what I trust shall be decided by me. Yes, there are things we can't just build in our garage, yet there are tools enables us to investigate, and people and organization working on it. Maybe Apple's take on AI have better privacy then others, but that shall be investigated and proven upon after release, not automatically granted.

  • Consider the level privacy of an interoperable / federated network is only as good as the node with the lowest level of privacy. The moment you connect to Meta infra, you're feeding it data, including but not limited to who you talked with, when you online, your message frequency, and possibly a whole lot more. Then they can start linking other bits to form a complete profile of you.

    It is just slightly better than installing WA., and also part of tge reasons why many Mastodon and Lemmy server refuse to federate with Meta Threads.

  • Key? Oh, welcome to the land of GPG/OTP where platform and protocol doesn't matter. Good luck finding a friend willing to deal with this just to talk to you though. And loose some important security features like forward secrecy and double ratchet.
