@_elena Film idea: "Back to the roots". They meet in secret. In coding dojos. They write code by hand. They have ancient books, real books, printed, with names like "Assembly Guide for the x86 ISA", "High Performance Python" that are sacred bibles of ancient knowledge. Follow our hero as she goes from LLM withdrawal to changing the world with hand-written code that frees the minds of millions. @jan

@onepunchmango EFF is not against LLMs.
Removed the pluralistic part.
@707Kat they argue and explain heavily against their usage and limitations in most things, and eloquently so. It's a good way both to keep up with* recent developments, learn, and get the vocabluary to talk about it with other people.

Dear Fedi friends,
I'd like to put together a list of people who are publicly resisting / calling out LLMs and AI slop.
Why? I enjoy reading my Fediverse feed in topical lists and I need something to counteract the unrelenting AI hype I see in the media.
Do you have any recommendations?
So far, at the top of my list I have:
@timnitGebru @emilymbender and @alexhanna of @DAIR
plus @cwebber @jaredwhite and @tante
Anyone else to recommend who advocates for #NoAI?
-
@_elena Here's an article you'll probably, enjoy, though, even if it's in Danish (but I know you know your way around that
) https://videnskab.dk/kultur-samfund/ai-i-valgkampen-hjaelper-det-kandidater-eller-skraemmer-det-vaelgerne-vaek/@trezzer thank you, I really appreciate!
I need to go pick up my little one from daycare but I will read it ASAP (just saved it to my Linkwarden)

@davidgerard THANK YOU!!!

@_elena thank you!

I feel like artists like @davidrevoy should be on the list too
-
@_elena No worries. It only helps if it becomes a norm anyway, and I think others will appreciate what you are doing.
@trezzer I feel really bad because I use CW super frequently.
Sorry it didn't occur to me for this post but I will use CW from now on...

@kawunngg YES of course!!! I LOVE his work

@jwildeboer Not sure why, but I just had scenes from "Dead Poets Society" flash in my head when reading this.

@_elena @WeirdWriter wrote two great Anti LLM posts, from the point of view as a writer and what it's doing to his community, if you want something that's outside commentary on this. Have tissues, you will cry from the beauty and care after getting angry.

@blainsmith Yes. But the script must be manually typed on an Underwood typewriter. I don't make the rules

I came across a cool humoristic method of resistance, see the For Ai Only section :

@_elena @jwildeboer @jan
I had the very same idea for such a story as well, although apparently vi is out of scope now

@jwildeboer @_elena @jan just read a wonderful piece on literature and LLMs, which has a part that is eerily similar to your idea
I think you might like it
