this is very good and correct

this comment just assumes skills ori better without dealing with any of the arguments presented

low quality troll

it's amazing

Only my own messages are in my PDS? Or the entire chat?

How is the chat displayed if messages are scattered among multiple PDSes?

What about the community metadata, where is it stored?

Your own messages are on your PDS. The chat, the category, community and all metadata are stored on the PDS of the person who created the community. The chat is then displayed via our app view, which keeps a live index of all messages and provides some endpoints to collect them!

So if a user is banned from their PDS and they haven't backed up their keys, the community is screwed? That seems like a pretty big flaw.

amazing how such a simple website lags to scroll on my phone

this is juvenile bullshit and probably AI generated

it's an important part of the craft that it is useful

if it became useless because of machines then it isn't the same thing anymore

Meh it’s a thread on repeat every week. This “hot take” is beating a dead horse. Now we just need another follow-up that re-explains what Luddites were and weren’t for the eleventh time, and then come back full circle just in time for next week.

Unless Trump declares another war so we can keep the front page busy with that.

Show HN might be forbidden to AI slop, but the front page is alive and well.

the story is bad in itself and doesn't add anything to the reader

but if you knew it came from a human it would be interesting as a window to learning what the writer was thinking

since there is no writer such window doesn't exist either

Yes, this is a thing. Bad writing with an interesting idea underneath it all is still interesting if it comes from a human because we have the expectation that the human will improve in how they share their ideas in the future. In other words, we see potential.

But LLMs don't have potential. You can make an LLM write a thousand articles in the next hour and it will not get one iota better at writing because of it. A person would massively improve merely from the act of writing a dozen, but 100x that effort and the LLM is no better off than when it started.

Despite every model release every 6 months being hailed as a "game changer", we can see from the fact that LLMs are just as empty and dumb as they were when GPT-2 was new half a decade ago that there really is no long term potential here. Despite more and more power, larger and hotter and more expensive data centers, it's an asymptotic return where we've already broken over the diminishing returns point.

And you know, I wouldn't care all that much--hell, might even be enthusiastically involved--if folks could just be honest with themselves that this turd sandwich of a product is not going to bring about AGI.

Someone prompted it to write that, and then posted it, so I suppose there's a meta-author to get upset at.

It's kind of an abandonment of having a worldview, outsourcing it to the AI.

this was a ridiculously pointless story, I stopped after the second paragraph and came here to ask politely what was the point of it

what was my surprise when I read it was AI-generated

I have the impression that Kagi is trending here every month

glad you said "bsky" not "atproto"
