Lemmy is better than Reddit in every way. This means the platform itself is better, but it also uplifts all users. This leads to better posts, better comments and better voting behavior. It also enhances the innate abilities of Lemmy users to be toxic as hell.
I get the hate for it, especially around resource use, and it’s overuse everywhere. But it’s still the early days and it’s certainly going to evolve. I imagine if people were as environmentally conscious in the 60s, they’d be up in arms about rooms full of hot glowing tubes doing arithmetic. Eventually, though, they got to be far less resource intensive.
Also the AI response is default behavior in Brave search…and many other searches. For me, Brave has probably been the best of the bunch, but that’s not exactly a high bar.
It’s also the pure insistent annoyance of a tool being inserted into everything we use in daily life which spits misinformation, plagerizes real human work, and is being pushed by big tech to such a degree for no apparent reason. Furthermore it’s intent, from tech’s point of view, is to cut labor, which it doesn’t do. What it does is allow for layoffs of well paid labor and rehire at a lower pay as AI jockeys who just clean up the mess after it.
The hate is grounded on a lot of factors which the “worst it will ever be” argument completely misses the point on.
I wish I could. However, the device belongs to the company. And sometimes we need the cameras. We used to have Thinkpads with built-in switch-like mechanism that blocks the webcam, but the newer laptops have their camera exposed.
Why would you trust any AI like that
Holy shit.
He’s at -22 right now, and you at +41.
He obviously isn’t trusting the AI, he’s asking here to verify it since he couldn’t find any first-hand information to contradict it.
Lemmy is already getting to be more fucking toxic than reddit. JFC.

So what I’m trying to say is suck it bitch.
This…checks out.
It’s been that way. Who would’ve thunk a bunch of edgy redditors are insufferable?
lol. Yup. We aren’t the cream of the crop here like some egos would have themselves believe.
I take comfort in knowing that votes on here don’t actually matter much.
Because AI hallucinates and isn’t a trustworthy source to find out info about anything
They don’t hallucinate, they just believe everything they read on the internet. They are basically Republicans.
Then why would you bother using it and wasting energy and water?!
Are you talking about AI or Republicans, because that could go either way.
And it’s the default behavior in Brave search.
You don’t search republicans for answers.
If that’s the default in brave, either change it or use a different browser. I used duck duck go for searches and I shut off all AI “help”
Arguably people don’t like the USE of AI regardless of whether the user thinks it’s trustworthy.
Yeah, it’s a scary word.

AI will never improve to the point where it can be considered trustworthy.
Counter point: Lemmy has always been more toxic.
I’ve never seen a group (as a whole) that’s less capable of accepting that there are things they don’t know, or other viewpoints.
I don’t blindly trust AI responses. However, that was way too concerning not to ask about it, considering that I work from home and that we use Teams.
so you asked the word confetti bot
Have you done a brave search recently? It automatically tries to answer.
It’s actually been surprisingly good for me. Better than Google, at least. But it’s not a choice on his part, it’s default behavior.
Since the answer of the AI seemed misleading, I asked here to confirm.
I love bluetacking my webcam
