Hey fellow Lemmings,
I’m thrilled to announce the launch of AI News Summary Bot, a project that brings you News summary! The bot is now live on our community at [email protected].
The bot is still in its early stages, and I’m excited to hear your feedback and suggestions on how to improve it. Feel free to share your thoughts and ideas.
Repository: If you’re interested in contributing or exploring the code behind the bot, you can find the repository at https://github.com/muntedcrocodile/ai_news_bot.
Donations: If you’re interested in donating to allow me to spend more time developing please do: monero:8916FjDhEqXJqX9Koec9WaZ4QBQAa6sgW6XhQhXSjYWpQiWB42GsggEh73YAFGF86GU2gEE1TTRdWSspuMgpWGkiPHkgBTX
Stay informed, and let’s build this community together!
If some of the downvoters would care to explain their opinion on why they downvoted this post, that’d be great. I personally don’t care for AI news, but if someone wants to build a c/ around it, I don’t have a problem with that.
Building a project around the mass theft of culture is a problem to me. Hence the downvote.
If the project is open source, isn’t that giving back the tool to the community?
Yes. Open source. So you give a few hundred lines of material so that people can steal millions to billions of lines of it.
A perfect exchange that is.
The exchange isn’t about giving a few hundred lines, it’s about allowing anyone to use the tool.
Do you think we should still harvest fields by hands instead of using tractors? That people should move using carriages pulled by horses rather than trains or cars?
That is absolutely not the issue and you know it. How do I know you know it? Because you’re not a moron, which leaves only “disingenuous”.
Your “harvest field by hands” thing isn’t even remotely close to the issue. AI isn’t a tractor making tilling, seeding, harvesting, etc. etc. etc. easier. AI is stealing, say, the wheat from other people’s farms and putting it into your silo and making bread with it.
Not sure if I’m disingenuous, I’m really trying to discuss in good faith.
If we keep the analogy here, what is the wheat? Who was going to summarize those articles anyway? Is this project taking anyone’s income away?
I used the tractor analogy because for me this project is a help to summarize articles, which otherwise has to be done by everyone on their own. But curious to hear what your vision is.
Have you heard of the Butlerian Jihad?
My vision isn’t quite as extreme.
Quite.
I had a quick look, it’s a story about humans vs machines? Shouldn’t you then not use Lemmy, your phone, the Internet? All of those rely on machines to operate
The spread of AI as a valid tool to get proper data/information is a big problem and threat. So I have a problem with something that is actively making things worse, yes.
I think people just hate ai. Which is when it comes to big tech companies cramming proprietary shit into places it doesnt belong. But ive made it all foss in it own community.
And yet you don’t take the further step of asking why people “just hate ai”.
