This whole "OpenClaw" thing has made me very angry and I wrote a bit about the why.

@Nfoonf @tante
the bots could rent some humans to go to the dev meeting

@larsmb from what I see mostly the * with the tiny "you have to check everything" note in tiny font hidden somewhere in invisible ink is considered enough even by law. Which is a mistake.

@demiguise thanks fixed

@tante the very manifestation of the book the writer cannot promote for legal reasons called “Careless people”- https://mastodon.social/users/dahukanna/statuses/115909518246104074

@tante i am never sure if i actually like notifying authors about errors.

because these tiny little human errors assure that the author concentrated on getting a message out, not "a text".

it's what makes them the "true" blog posts.

[tante@tldr.nettime.org]

@peterfr I appreciate it!

[yatil@yatil.social]

@tante FYI, the podcaster you want to mention is “Lex Fridman”, not “Lex Friedman”, aka @lexfri, who is certainly not right-wing

Here’s a song about it, too: https://lexfriedman.com/friedman

[davidgerard@circumstances.run]

@agowa338 @tante fast fashion usually succeeds in covering your arse, though

[tante@tldr.nettime.org]

@yatil @lexfri I fixed the name, thanks for the hint.

My characterization of his Oeuvre will stay though. He gives so much space to right wing talking points that he's indistinguishable from a right wing spokesperson.

If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck ...

[tante@tldr.nettime.org]

@davidgerard @agowa338 not for very long though

[yatil@yatil.social]

@tante @lexfri Oh, Fr_i_dman’s characterization is spot on. Fuck that guy

[tante@tldr.nettime.org]

@yatil @lexfri I misread your comment, sorry
Glad we can agree that Fridman can fuck himself.

@tante «“having some code and an open license” is not a sufficient set of requirements for building a sustainable, resilient digital landscape for everyone.» yeah, I've been thinking about that recently too for a conference submission (in case it's of interest): https://tzovar.as/open-science-beyond-licenses/

[fluidlogic@oldbytes.space]

@tante @joe @madcoder Carl Brown (https://www.internetofbugs.com/) recently posted a short video on this which is worth your time:

@tante as a maintainer and someone doing a lot around this topic (foss as digital infra) I have complex feelings about the rhetoric you use here.

I agree wholly on the AI guys. And also I am really really wary of what that exact discourse will do to our digital infra. Because I don't see how it can end other than pain. I want it to end positively but... I can't see it happening

[ftranschel@norden.social]

@stefan_hessbrueggen @tante People will be quick to make it about "guardrails" or "alignment" or some other shit.

But the core of the matter is: Somebody *human* deployed this bot, either not thinking or (worse!) not *caring* about the ramifications of autocomplete unleashed.

The human condition these days is disgusting.

[finner@appdot.net]

@tante @mttaggart @stefan_hessbrueggen

This is absolutely insane that we are having to respond to and explain our positions on things to *fucking chat bots* as if they were actual sentient humans. What in the ever loving fuck are we doing?

[dec23k@mastodon.ie]

@agowa338 @tante
A point that wasn't made clear by the OP (and which then had to be explained in replies downthread, more than once):
Everyone *did* leave, and the colleague asked the question in chat while waiting outside.
