The capitalism problem is also responsible for an inability to regulate AI, as the very people responsible for the regulations are lobbied to fuck by the AI corps to avoid that regulation.
That means the only power to fight back against them rests in the hands of individuals, who can refuse to use the corporate owned tools.
Most people I know are using corporate AI, and appeals to try local LLMs fall on deaf ears in my experience, with claims that they aren’t powerful enough or that the hardware to run them is too cost prohibitive. If most of the people you know are running local models, I think that is an exception to the norm.
Would you support FLOSS projects officially restricting any AI contributions to those only made with locally hosted models? As I said, most times I’ve mentioned that idea in other threads, the pro-AI side was vehemently against it.
Absolutely not. Such a community resource is exactly where we need to be employing it. And for building the tools we can use to cut those corps out, that’s not a reasonable solution at all.
Human code review, and not such a rush to throw out new “features” would alleviate those issues.
I don’t have any data to support it, but I suspect a lot of that use relates to their work and not personal projects. Though I’ll admit the Facebook pics and meme generation junk is almost certainly mostly done on corporate systems. But this could be done with reasonable systems as well.
That capitalism problem is so much bigger than AI, but its the problem, not AI.
We would not be anywhere at all as a species if we rejected any advantage, but now with civilization we can do it responsibly. Even if the early days are the Wild West. I can support you or anyone who wants to avoid it, but I can’t support a total rejection.
