I've seen anti-AI comments here disappear within minutes of posting. I'm honestly surprised to see one at the top of this thread.
replyWhat causes comments to disappear? Is that what flagging does?
I see properly argued positions, even if very anti-AI, hang around, but cheap tribalist takes usually get downvoted pretty quickly.
replyCheap pro-AI comments don't get flagged though. You can repeat the same talking points forever:
reply- "Artists have always been exploited" (patently false since at least 1950, it was a symbiosis with the industry).
- "Humans have always done $X".
- "You are a Luddite."
- "This is inevitable."
showdead=no in user settings hides flagged & moderator killed posts
replyYou probably see that because many are low effort Reddit level comments. I’ve seen lots of long AI skeptic threads and people talking about the likely negatives of AI.
replyMaybe SWEs just can think better and see that there's nothing they can do, and to fight against this is useless. Artists still hope they can change this somehow, which is impossible, the people with money and datacenters want more money and don't really care about the people that are getting screwed over.
