Föderation EN Mo 10.06.2024 23:58:30 @IamPic How about we stop using technology to solve social problems? The current ecological collapse is mainly due to our reflex of throwing tech at any problem humans are too lazy to solve intelligently. There are community-fed alt-text databases, for example, but mostly: if it’s important, we should shun (like some Mastodon communities do) those who don’t make the effort. But we don’t, we spend minerals and kWh and water getting an approximative bad alt text using AI. |

Föderation EN Do 20.06.2024 19:23:33 @DigitalJacobin @IamPic Let’s see what this ends up being like, but if it’s anything like all the other LLM implementations, disabled people will get a shitty useless feature that doesn’t solve their problem, and we won’t be any closer to fixing the root problem. |
