For now
…at the moment
Yeah, I remember when Reddit promised similar things...
The API is so cheap someone is going to do it anyways...
That's my biggest issue with AI. Now all the APIs want me to pay to use them. Originally the API was an incentive to get engineers to build features for their sites without having to pay them. The engineers get data they need to build their thing and the company providing the API gets free product features and user acquisition. It was mostly a fair trade. Now the companies see a few other companies using that data to train API and make a fortune so their reaction is to charge a fortune for the API. Totally disregarding the previous arrangement. If you are an engineer working on something unrelated to AI you are basically shut down from using any APIs that provide useful data. Everything is locked down now when it once was open. It's so sad. It makes learning more restrictive
Nah, first you gotta get comfortable for a couple of years.
It's basically pig butchering for social networks.
What’s the problem of training AI with my posts?
Nothing if you do it yourself but someone else doing it without your permission and making tons of money off of it and not sharing it isn't very cool so this is nice.
Yeah, they should ask for permission, I don’t see the point of not sharing it though, they will only make tons of money if the AI is good, don’t they? I think ChatGPT and some other AIs are amazing and if they want my data for helping it, I would allow it.
"we promise ;)"
Oh it will as soon as the investors demand more ReTurN oN iNvEsTmEnT.
Then we leave that platform too. I have zero loyalty. Zero.
I only have it because my family chose that over Mastodon. Mastodon is better.

"Well, WE won't train on your data. But this subsidiary company we created on the other hand..."
Won't train AI on your posts ~~until we reach critical mass of users~~.
......for now.
"Bluesky has not been offered enough money to scrape user data for AI"
Sounds exactly like something that someone intending to train an AI would say.

BlueskAI on the other hand...
If the AT protocol allows public access to content, they can’t create a proprietary training set. But the content is available for anyone who wants to add it to a public training set.
They also said it was decentralized which is not true.
I don't believe this.

To be fair, "they" could probably train AI on Lemmy data, they just won't ask for permission and won't be charged for it
AI is 100% being trained using Lemmy.
Bluesky is VC backed. They'll want to make money down the road, and they'll definitely train AI soon if not already.

Trust me bro, just keep shit posing on here, we won't change out "ToS"
It's open to the public. So, many other orgs are certainly doing it anyway.
The same can be said of lemmy, mastodon or any publically accessible forum

Better BlueSky than Twitter, but I hope everyone understands by now that there’s literally no reason to take a business’s word for anything unless they somehow have legally obligated themselves to doing that thing forever. Otherwise you can only trust them to keep doing it for as long as it’s worth it from an economic perspective. I’m not saying that it can’t ever happen that a business acts out of pure goodwill, but only a fool would count on it.
I've yet to hear a good argument for why it matters even if they did. I've made thousands of comments on Lemmy that are free for anyone to grab and do anything they want with. If I didn't want people to have access to them I wouldn't be posting on the first place.
If I didn't want people to have access to them I wouldn't be posting on the first place.
there's the catch: it's for people. not robots, not billionaires
Makes no difference to me.
then you can join twitter and reddit as well
I've been on both for over a decade longer than on Lemmy.
Lol okay. Sounds good, bro.
