It always resolves!

That's true.

Living on a flat is not that fun. Spain is one of the western countries with more flats instead of individual houses.

And it's reported that a big chunk of Spaniards live with noise issues which affect our health in a negative way.

Hearing your neighbors all the time in the supposed tranquility of your own home can be mind breaking.

Chatgpt is just enforcing 4th law of robotics.

Enlightenment is when you do not ask yourself if the square with a few pixels of traffic light counts or not.

I used to had snails. They do poop on their faces all the time.

I would need some consent first.

I tried, but then it started blinking.

I have no mouth and I must scream.

It was originally published as part of a book compilation, and it was kind of hard to find a file with just that story and without typos all over the place.

One small old book that used to be hard to find in good quality. I've it seeding for years, and being so small and in risk of being lost I've never taken it down.

One useful usecase that's being exploited a lot is roleplay.

Using AI to generate a bot to do a roleplay with and maybe images to add flavour. It's something that people like to do, and that's totally harmless.

Like, yes, the llm was trained the books of grrm without his explicit consent and now someone is roleplay a fantasy scenario with John Snow, but who cares?

It's not like GRRM is available to be hired as a play partner, and no one is getting profit out of it, specially if people just selfhost the models. People is just having fun. And the AI is not substituting anyone. As people didn't hire "actors" to play their roleplay sessions anyway.

And it's not like people who use it it like this even post the results in social media and call themselves "AI artist" or anything like that. They just play for themselves or their group of friends, and, at most you can share online the "bot card" so others can use it.

Many people don't care about it. Me included, for instance.

I would give the reason why but I don't know if anyone is truly interested in knowning.

I don't consider things being made by AI as something terrible. If the post is fine I upvote and comment like any other post. If the content is lazy, clickbaity or plain bad then it's bad. But if it's good I don't care that it was produced using some AI tool or other.

It's true that the fediverse it's still hostile towards AI conversation (this very comment have high possibilities to be drowned with downvotes) but I'm glad the general stance is changing little by little. I hope in a few years the hostility would be much more marginal, specially if the fediverse keeps growing and more people with more diverse opinions come in.

I like to talk about topics, seeing different opinions about it, and when everyone have the same opinion the discussion is not really interesting. With AI, it's something new that sparks a lot of though process about may topic. For instance the morality of it, or the limits, trying to find the gray areas between the black and the white. It can be very interesting, and I'm glad, little by little we can start talking about it.
