I love pickles, Kalamata olives, kimchi, and artichoke hearts. I'd say I like everything else, although I've had some bad green olives and am not crazy about capers.

Have you ever had homegrown sundried cherry tomatoes? I think there's a huge difference in flavor between good and bad tomatoes

I made this post in response to seeing a low quality AI video that was literally an ad for a company.

I'm fine with actually high quality AI stuff (labeled, preferably), but there seems to be almost none.

It's been everywhere for a while, but the fediverse seemed like a last bastion up until very recently where I've noticed a change.

Is this the end of human-based online articles and interactions?

I sure hope not. At least it's just a few posts here that are generated for now. If it ever gets to the level of Reddit, I might just leave.

As someone who is both, would definitely say I'm interested in generative ML. (I was an early adopter of locally run diffusion models and LLMs. I kinda ended up deeply disappointed by the tech in a lot of ways, but that's a different discussion.)

But personally for me the issue is that I really don't care to see posts that someone didn't care enough to make themself, or read something that someone didn't care to write. And it's always super bland and uninteresting.

Yeah I agree. The issue is that image generation tends to result in maximally bland outputs, and the people who post it tend to put minimal effort in.

I'm not categorically anti-ai, but I feel like I am in practice.

I'm referring to stuff that I consider low quality. I don't mind if something is generated, as long as it is labeled as such and is interesting or valuable in some way.

I love coconut so we may have different taste, but I think oat milk is the best plant based milk.

As someone who hates milk and loves coconut, I agree that they don't taste similar.

I'm pretty pleasantly surprised at how well Arch and its derivatives are doing.

From a quick search it looks like India, Nigeria, Singapore, and the Philippines do as well.

Other countries may have pledges of some sort for special occasions or for new citizens. But having a flag in every classroom that children chant to each morning is not normal.
