FYI they can’t down vote you in any piefed community because their excessive down-voting history automatically disqualifies them.

Afaik Gentoo is anti AI. As much as they can while still using the kernel I guess.

Let’s see if there will be a checkbox in the UI that I can tick to exclude AI software from my search results…

I appreciate your enthusiasm, welcome!

The label doesn’t do anything until individuals opt in to filtering based on it.

We can’t leave it to the reposters to self-identify because

1. Lemmy does not have the functionality to do that and

2. reposters are deceptive and sneaky

Individuals, yeah. Instance admins are going to need to designate reposters if they refuse to self-designate (and Lemmy doesn’t have functionality for them to do that, except as a bot) and then it’s up to individuals to decide whether they filter out reposters or not.

It’s manually-applied and reversible. I can’t reliably code an automatic reposter detection system because they’re all different. It’s going to have to be a human judgement.

Similar to labelling things as AI-generated or NSFW - being a reposter isn’t necessarily bad. It just means that people who don’t mind whether they see it can do so and those who don’t want to can avoid it, without the conflict that ensues when people with different needs and tastes are forced to share space.

Not yet, this functionality isn’t running on a live server.

They are using multiple accounts to try to mask it. I’m not sure but it seems like about 4 to 6 different accounts all run by the same guy.

It is a deluge. It is deceptive. No one opted in to it.

Yes the screenshot is just the user settings. Admins are going to have to manually designate accounts as reposters because I haven’t even tried to make an automated detection. That would be very hard to get right.

Working on it!

The NoGoogleAi firefox extension solves this.

No it’s just what happens when you automatically repost stuff from reddit - whatever psyops / culture war is going on there end up over here too.

It’s a bot

Yeah that’s pretty crazy but this bit is crazier - https://www.anthropic.com/threat-intelligence-report-september-2026#cyber-operations-sep-26

AI is a useful tool, for all its flaws and negative externalities.

“If you ignore the negatives for everyone else and just focus on the positives for me, it’s pretty great”

Mhmm. Right, ok.

Yup. If there’s anywhere that can absorb the umm influx of 5000 stir-crazy men all at once, it’s Pattaya. Plus every bar girl from Bangkok will be there to lend a hand - it’s only a couple of hours drive away.

Those are good examples of what the article was describing - competence porn
