    Lemmy: Less vitriolic to AI-assisted software than Reddit

    Is that true? Lemmy hates AI in my experience

      It’s absolute bullshit. I ended up returning to Reddit for the technical subs precisely because I’m sick and tired of the smug cunts on Lemmy that publicly whinge about AI at the drop of a hat, but probably use it constantly behind the curtains. There’s no discussion to be had on Lemmy about AI; it’s automatically a fight.

      Reddit is nowhere near as antagonistic to it. I’m not reading any of the default subs, of course, but the technical subs have useful discussion without constant acrimony from people that have no interest in being there except to be assholes.

      It’s a downside to low traffic on Lemmy that encourages people to browse All, and end up inserting themselves into a discussion they wouldn’t have run across in their actual subscribed comms.

      If I were to hazard a guess, I would say that there are more people here who do utilize AI in some form or another, than those who don’t. It’s just that they are not very vocal about it because they don’t wish to have all the drama associated with divulging such information.

          LOL! Dude, I absolutely, positively, must put things back in their proper place, or I’d forget everything. For instance, I went out this morning to feed the Koi in the Koi pond. I have a plastic jug that I keep the pellets in, that is kept in a drawer in the living room. When I take the jug out, I must leave the drawer pulled open to alert my dumbass that something goes back in there when I come back in. Keys absolutely must be hung on the key rack each and every time after use. Spectacles, testicles, wallet, and watch. Every day.
