Its worth noting that they had completed “15 to 20 contracts previously” and that they had negotiated previous contracts via text message. This process became the norm during the pandemic.

“If you run a company based on the goodwill of millions of volunteer users, contributors, and moderators, one of your top priorities should probably be to focus on making them happy.”

Holy fuck this is an old picture lol

Wait is that some kid IRL? Or we talking about gpt speaking as a child?

Fuuuuuuck… Imagine if chat GPT started amending its results with… “EDIT: wElL tHiS bLeW uP oVeRnIgHt… tHaNkS fOr ThE gOlD kInD ReDdiToR”

That’d be so damn annoying haha

What’s even more annoying than google populating half the first page with ads is that the links don’t even work half the time these days.

If AI art is just ripping off IRL artists than it’s safe to assume chat GPT’s training was >50% reddit & Wikipedia content.

Engage content that you enjoy and ride this out.

Right now lemmy’s growth is driven by people pre-emptively leaving reddit even though their choses mobile apps still function. We’ll probably see another influx come July.

But for now all we as a seed community can do is engage the other topics we enjoy and build communities that have substance.

Eventually people will join to engage those topics instead of grip reddits demise.
