Someone posted in r/waymo a video of someone covering all the cameras with tape, which apparently immobilizes the self driving car. I interpreted that as non dangerous to actual people since it keep the car from moving at all.
Anyway, everyone in the comments was a circle jerk saying Waymo should come after the person legally. I suggested that big tech like Google and Uber may do more unethical things than this person putting some tape on a self driving car. Never did I once threaten violence lol.
I got this same warning because I was discussing the color of a shirt. And my phone auto corrected violet into violence. I used the form to report a false flag and got a two week ban. All automated with no human input on their end.
The future is bleak as the ai cant interpret context.
Future isn’t bleak on Lemmy! Hopefully this just pushes more people off Reddit. People deserve better
It kind of is though?
Essentially no protections for operators from bots, which means no protection for communities from automated infiltration and astroturfing.
The only thing stopping it is that the cost/benefit isn’t there yet with how small Lemmy is. But that’s slowly changing.
There are captchas but I suppose you could work around that easily by having a human sign up and offloading the account to a bot. If it really became a problem I’m sure Lemmy could adapt, but it could involve similar fingerprinting techniques to Reddit. Lemmy being petty privacy conscious would likely hate that. But I say we solve one problem at a time. Bots aren’t an issue yet.
God no. Bots are already better at solving Captchas than humans are. The only use case for captchas is to do what 4chan did and make every post require a captcha and then charge a fee to bypass them.
