Pro-AI mod bans me from a bunch of communities I never even heard of because he didn’t like my criticism of the fake slop that isn’t art which he posts.

    Tbf, your alt account is 4 hours old and has done nothing but antagonize these communities. I don’t like AI either but you picked a dumb fight and received a reasonable mod response. I would have also banned you.

    If you don’t like AI just block those communities bro. Stupid attention seeking behavior.

        He’s kind of a dick about it, here’s just one example:

        I bet most of their posts and comments are made with GenAI

        Edit: Aww Jeena did I hurt your wittle feewings? Calling you out on the fact that you are a slopper? Well too bad I’m not stopping.

        By the way this dipshit is posting AI slop in their comment images. Just look at their wonderful contribution to the news thread about the death of Norway’s king.

    They run a community about hating corporate ai and a bunch of corporate ai communities. I see they outsourced 100% of their brain function to Slop Defecation

      Seems mostly Stable Diffusion, which is open source with corporate backing, but I also found the distinction kind of silly. Like, you hate AI if it’s owned by Meta and OpenAI and whatnot, but it’s cool as long as you can use it locally? Still have a lot of ethical implications, although it’s admittedly marginally better.

        It’s all slop which steals from artists. Just because they’re “anarchists” doesn’t give them the right to steal art from other people!

      Stable Diffusion isn’t a company, but also, if you’re heavily invested in one side of the argument, controlling your opposition is the best possible outcome. You allow regular dissent because that’s irrelevant and changes nothing, but when actual controversy happens, you can kill it instantly.

      The exact same thing happens all over the world all the time, it’s called controlled opposition.

        It’s all corporate slop at the end of the day. Doesn’t matter if no one put their name on it. Stable diffusion sounds like something generated by a slopper “what do I call this image generation AI?” Slopper: “Stable Diffusion”

        4 of the 5 founders of Slop Defecation formed a company with the express purpose of continuing work and to profit off of Slop Defecation. That being Stability AI, who has received hundreds of millions of dollars in funding. Just because that company is based in Europe and not the United States doesn’t make them any less of a massive corporation now.

        And just cause they say they are anarchists doesn’t make them any less of a horrible human being. They steal billions of people’s work, without proper payment for said work. Not even so much as a line of text stating who they stole from.

        Lastly, obviously the name of the model is not the name of the company. Just like how ChatGPT is not the name of another slop company.

      And To what end for the user?. A human can do anything the AI can. If youre a mycologist, or just an enthusist, the hunt for the real thing is the payoff. If you want to add something to the field, ai generated is false data.

      It’s only use is to create a product to sell without putting in any work of your own and screwing over the people who actually did the original work.

      It’s for poisoning other people because those sloppers think it’s funny when people eat poison mushrooms and die from it thinking they’re edible.

      Oh “All mushrooms are edible, some are only edible once hahahaha”

      I’m guessing they’re opposed only to corporate use, while endorsing individual use (my indicator being the trove of Stable Diffusion communities they also mod). I’d love to check it out, but db0 defederated us.

      I’ve seen a few types about that mostly criticise the way companies use it at scale to replace human employees. Their argument is that generating and refining images with successive prompts produces higher quality “art” than the mediocre slop put out by corporations.

      If you accept the premise that the value of art is the quality of the result rather than the effort that went into making it and acquiring the skills for it, that logic holds up well enough. It’s just that most artists disagree, and once the sloppers start to claim that their effort is comparable, never having actually invested the time and energy into learning just how wrong they are, that their argument starts to crumble irredeemably.

          It seems they’re just really good at making friends all around. Getting banned both by the AI subs and by fuck_ai indicates it was never about AI.

          Reason given in the modlog is harassment. Sounds about right.

          really?

          Yeah, Germany’s current government is… not great for honest and open discourse about Israel and our admins aren’t anarchist enough to risk their doors getting kicked in, their devices confiscated and our instance being shut down by openly and explicitly defying the laws of the place they live.

          So besides a slew of rules against advocating oppression of minorities, harassing minorities, intentionally misgendering or deadnaming, promoting nationalist sentiments, posting Nazi symbolism and all the other sensible rules you’d expect, they’ve got a rule about not posting anything illegal in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. That includes “Death to” type calls against anything and anyone, and in Germany also includes challenging Israel’s statehood. While they don’t hunt down every small violation, they do take down the most egregious ones.

          According to db0, that’s tantamount to the soldiers in 1940 “just following orders”.

          There’s no shortage of people criticising our government and all its fuckery, nor do people get banned for calling out genocide, and even our admins and mods criticise Israeli actions. But once they covinced the mselves that we’re all Zionazis, any hope of civilly sorting this out went down the drain and now it’s a shitfest with no winners (except maybe the actual Nazis delighted at seeing the leftists fight each other again).

          defederated lemmy ml

          No, we’re still federated with them and with a bunch of other instances I don’t particularly like, but I think it’s better to federate and let people block them than to endlessly fracture the fediverse from the outset.

          We’re also defederated from a few I wish we weren’t, and I don’t personally agree with all rules and moderation decisions either. It’s not perfect, but I don’t think any place is. It has people and communities I care about, and it’s good enough for me.

    You’re probably not missing anything in those stable diffusion communities.

    Fuck Corporate AI could be interesting though!

    Edit: Fuck Corporate AI is a graveyard, just 3 posts, no active community there.

    OP nothing of value was lost.

    But also, how did you offend someone within an hour of creating your account? I’m impressed!

      That’s what people always say/think anyhow. Personally I don’t care if they were an asshole to AI simps. My takeaway from this post isn’t “you deserved it” but that it’s an expected interaction between camps very pro-AI and anti-AI. Also that I continue to find it petty and stupid when mods are like “I’ll show you and ban you from 57 other communities you probably didn’t care about”.

    But how will you ever get your AI mycology images? These evil mods do not understand your deep need for slop?! /s

    I’ve blocked most of those. Every couple of weeks more show up. Who even looks at those super generic ai coms?

    Edit: this person seems to be a hater who is stalking the main mod of those coms, so I get why they would be banned on their new alt.
