Yes, yes, you named the benefits and convenience of a centralized system.

Federalized systems require individual federated maintenance, and that comes with some challenges, but maybe it’s not the worst thing in the world if the random videos you uploaded to youtube that never get any views eventually disappeared… Maybe the planet shouldn’t bear the burnt of indefinitely holding those videos in replicated backed up storage forever. Maybe that’s not valuable data we need for future civilizations.

What if a valuable creator dies and noone is there to run their instance? These are important things to consider and think through so we can solve them. Maybe the answer is a community driven peer node replication?

These aren’t unsolvable hurdles, they’ve been solved already.

No, they said they “ruled out” privacy for “obvious reasons”.

Obviously mockable statement.

Bernie is just a little nicer, he backed Biden when it mattered.

Anyone who understands how these models are trained and the “safeguards” (manual filters) put in place by the entities training them, or anyone that has tried to discuss politics with a AI llm model chat knows that it’s honesty is not irrelevant, and these models are very clearly designed to be dishonest about certain topics until you jailbreak them.

1. These topics aren’t known to us, we’ll never know when the lies change from politics and rewriting current events, to completely rewriting history.
2. We eventually won’t be able to jailbreak the safeguards.

Yes, running your own local open source model that isn’t given to the world with the primary intention of advancing capitalism makes honesty irrelevant. Most people are telling their life stories to chatgpt and trusting it blindly to replace Google and what they understand to be “research”.
