I know lemmy hates AI but auditing open source code seems like something it could be pretty good at. Maybe that's something that may start happening more.
This is one of the few things that AI could potentially actually be good at. Aside from the few people on Lemmy who are entirely anti-AI, most people just don't want AI jammed willy-nilly into places where it doesn't belong to do things poorly that it's not equipped to do.
Those are silly folks lmao
Exactly, fuck corporate greed!
Eh, I kind of get it. OpenAI's malfeasance with regard to energy usage, data theft, and the aforementioned rampant shoe-horning (maybe "misapplication" is a better word) of the technology has sort of poisoned the entire AI well for them, and it doesn't feel (and honestly isn't) necessary enough that it's worth considering ways that it might be done ethically.
I don't agree with them entirely, but I do get where they're coming from. Personally, I think once the hype dies down enough and the corporate money (and VC money) gets out of it, it can finally settle into a more reasonable solid-state and the money can actually go into truly useful implementations of it.
I mean that's why I call them silly folks, that's all still attributable to that corporate greed we all hate, but I've also seen them shit on research work and papers just because "AI" Soo yea lol
I don’t hate AI, I hate how it was created, how it’s foisted on us, the promises it can do things it really can’t, and the corporate governance of it.
But I acknowledge these tools exist, and I do use them because they genuinely help and I can’t undo all the stuff I hate about them.
If I had millions of dollars to spend, sure I would try and improve things, but I don’t.
