I came across this #Reddit family drama from one of those narration YouTube videos and reading all of the original posts spanning several months was pretty bonkers! I don’t care if the story was an exercise in creative fiction or actually real because I was totally entertained. 😅
OpenAI Strikes Reddit Deal To Train Its #AI On Your Posts
Reddit gets access to OpenAI’s tech for building AI features, and OpenAI gets real-time access to Reddit posts that feed into ChatGPT. #OpenAI has also signed up to become an advertising partner on #Reddit.
It’s an agreement similar to the one Reddit signed with #Google earlier this year that was reportedly worth $60 million.
Hach ja, nun ist es hoch offiziell, dass Reddit nun deine Daten für OpenAI sammelt. Alternativen diesbezüglich im Fediverse hatte ich schon länger her vorgeschlagen, das ist @LemmyDev und/oder @kbin, die nicht an deine kostenlosen Daten verdienen (profitieren).
»OpenAI darf Reddit-Daten nutzen:
Die beiden Unternehmen wollen eng zusammenarbeiten – und voneinander profitieren.«
Dopo #substack anche #reddit monetizza la sua kwnoledge base, creata attraverso i contributi spontanei dei frequentatori della piattaforma.
Sul punto non ho un'opinione forte: una comunità riceve ospitalità gratuita, ma quel gratis per altri ha un costo e il corrispettivo, in questo caso, èciò ciascuno ha scritto e che, una volta pubblicato, ha smesso di appartenergli.
Le regole erano sempre state chiare? E allora inutile lamentarsene ora #ownyourdata#ownyourweb https://www.ilpost.it/2024/05/17/reddit-accordo-openai/
OpenAI strikes Reddit deal to train its AI on your posts
"OpenAI has signed a deal for access to real-time content from Reddit’s data API, which means it can surface discussions from the site within ChatGPT and other new products."
#OpenAI#ChatGPT#Copyright#IP#Reddit: "OpenAI, a company that has indiscriminately scraped the internet and vast amounts of knowledge and creative works created by humans to build a company valued at roughly $80 billion, has made what Reddit described as a copyright complaint against the ChatGPT subreddit because it uses OpenAI’s logo.
Moderators of the subreddit posted a screenshot of a message that they said they had received from Reddit. The message reads “Hello Mods, We have received a copyright complaint from openai.com alleging unauthorized use of their copyrighted logos in r/ChatGPT. The 'subreddit profile image' does make use of the copyrighted content, which can lead to user confusion: please address the unauthorized copyrighted elements by May 16.” The message goes on to say that the moderators need to remove the OpenAI logo from the subreddit profile and reply to Reddit confirming that the logo has been removed." https://www.404media.co/openai-files-copyright-claim-against-chatgpt-subreddit/
It's hard to imagine #StackOverflow made their decision without considering the fate #Twitter and #Reddit suffered. That they willingly chose to burn the remaining goodwill they had with their users is bewildering.
In the history of data, reuse is a constant. In human history, regime change is a constant.
Hence the extractive repurposing going on at #stackoverflow, #github & #reddit to feed AI and take over your jobs. (And countless injustices, like DACA used for ICE, Nazis using invaded country birth records to find Jews, etc).
This is the true “tragedy of the commons”: upon hostile acquisition, what was once a gift indicating membership, care, and community is liable to unethical extraction.
De todo el mareo con #Kbin y #Lemmy para grupos en #Mastodon puedo decir que aunque Kbin salga ganando no hay mucho visible desde Mastodon que justifique su uso para agrupar conversaciones de ciertos temas en lugar de usar hashtags.
Por ello activé en los grupos de Kbin que añadan las publicaciones que usen su respectivo hashtag como hilo de su sección de microblog.
Quien prefiera usar cuenta de Kbin en vez de Mastodon tiene cierta ventaja para comunicarse con el fediverso como si fuera #Reddit.
Do people just argue for the sake of it? This person took issue with what I wrote and when I asked them to explain, we wind up pretty much with what I originally said. #Reddit#car#Fiat#Tofaş
So it looks like we’ll need to do some #accessibility advocacy next week. I’m not looking forward to it. But not because of advocating for my needs, or working with large companies. That doesn’t bother me. No, what bothers me is the interactions I will inevitably have with the #blind people who are supposed to be my allies. At least one person will say it works fine and I’m a whiner who needs to shut up. Eight or nine will tell me it’s my fault for purchasing the product at all. Several will tell me that it’s unreasonable to expect a multi-million dollar company to make things accessible on release. I’m tired. Not tired of advocacy, but tired of the lack of support, respect, and community spirit amongst my fellow blind people. We saw it during the #reddit advocacy, and we’re going to experience it all over again #a11y

Leggendo il libro Aggiustare il mondo di Giovanni Ziccardi ho scoperto che inizialmente Reddit fu concepito in Common Lisp e che in una fase successiva, su suggerimento di Aron, fu riscritto in Python per vari motivi.
Facendo delle ricerche, ho trovato il repo con il codice e anche il post degli sviluppatori in cui argomentano questa scelta. Molto interessante!
Here is the natural consequence of #Semrush inspiring all that #misinformation: people attacking me on #Reddit. This is one reason I fought to get this crap off the web.
Our #Reddit only needs 4 more users to get it to 3,500 members! Come on over and join the sub for quality content, tech support, and a growing community.
Reddit brings back its old award system — ‘we messed up’ (www.theverge.com)
The company said it’s golden upvote system “missed the mark.” (Bwaahahahaha)
Asked /r/news mods something, probably shouldn't have bothered
So, I deleted everything I'd posted to Reddit almost a year ago now and have been over here in federated space since....
