Address the comments or address the defederation?

I was the Admin who was contacted by Ada and that is a mischaracterisation of what I said. Our rules still stand that we won’t allow transphobia.

Unfortunately, as the ruling on the interpretation of the law has recently changed, we are going to have to figure out how we approach this and that is going to require a consensus amongst the Admins, and an agreement on our wording going forward.

This is going to take a bit for us to work out (although not too long, we’re getting there, I have been active on Lemmy but I don’t call the shots, and we need input from all Admins) and if, in the meantime, LBZ feel we aren’t moving fast enough and they need to defederate from us then that is obviously their right.

To what extent? Like what about an AI generated humour/satire image in a comment section? I have a funny one of Vladimir Putin sitting on a naughty step

That’s a no for that. It’s ultimately based on someone else’s stolen work.

We would, I suspect, allow AI imagery in discussion about AI and what it us capable of but the days of posting it to laugh at the shitty results seems long gone. In recent examples, I couldn’t tell by eye but I ran it through an AI checker which was pretty definitive.

Anyway, I changed casualuk icon as it was an old 2023 AI generated image previously. I think we should work towards revamping other communities

Yeah, there’s the odd community avatar we need to swap and we definitely need to give some of the communities a bit of a revamp as they were bodged together over a year ago, often in haste.

We don’t get a lot of it on here. We’d just been asked for clarification on our AI policy after a meme or two popped up. This now means there isn’t any ambiguity and the Mods can shut it down when they find it. AI checkers are quite and pretty definitive.

I’d not factored in the robot overlords. I may have just Roko’s basilisked myself. 🤦‍♂️

They want to be able to train AIs on everything without any constraint. So they get to make large amounts of money of other people’s work, while the people actually creating original songs and stories get nothing.

Dorsey left BS a while ago.

Oh indeed. I’ve not given up yet.

It’s diminishing returns as those most amenable to the message are now here.

Problems averted.

Don’t tempt them, I’ve only just cleaned that mess up.

That’s fine - you aren’t having a go at the instance or it’s users, and there are reasons for the way things are.

Might be our first post on here from NodeBB. I look forward to seeing more content from over there.

I wasn’t even subbed to that one!

@Cris_Color@lemmy.world being nice helps establish the “tone”, but I’m not sure that wouldn’t change with another “API event” on Reddit that results in another, larger mass migration.

The way I see it - the early adopters set the tone of a place and new arrivals are more likely to adopt that approach. So it is important to be kind now, so people will be kind later.
