Weight the chance of being drawn by wealth and give Mega-Fines to offenders and I’d be down for it

Language models model language, not reality.

So? Break context scrapers till they give up, on your site or completely.

Have some faith in yourself. You’re not an idiot. Find a friend to show you or smth. I’m not a terminal advocate, I avoid it as much as possible, but in a thread about corporations and scammers relying on user ignorance, this behavior is defeatist.

This is learned helplessness. Especially for someone who took the time to go waste time on Lemmy in stead of Reddit, you could have learned it in the time it took to complain about it taking effort.

Do any of these sync with the Firefox Android app? Or do they have their own?

Real and fake reviews getting summarized in the same writing style so you can’t even tell the difference anymore.

Udm14 is just a query parameter to open google with the “web” results tab. Still works.

How does it make them money?

It’s basically infinity value for your money

It’s a business. Hosting a service to keep connections up isn’t free or trivial. It’s cheap and easy to learn how to maintain though. Get jellyfin and a VPN and a tunnel.

Can’t go cheaper than free. They don’t even sell your data

Do they have the money? What is the value of Chrome anyways, if you can’t do monopoly things with it? About as much as Firefox?

Take a minute to learn the difference between mozilla.org and mozilla.com. They are very much separate, and the .com has never pretended to not be there for the money. It’s explicitly why it exists, so that the org can keep doing its thing.

Who’s getting killed because of the “translate page” button in my browser?

The “translate page” button in my browser is evil? Get a grip.

“Responsible use of AI” could mean things like providing small offline models for client-side translation. They’re actually building that feature and the preview is already amazing.

You need an editor for traditional transcription tools too :) and it’s A LOT more work. They don’t even do punctuation or names.

I use it for generating subtitles. It figures out context, it ignores stuttering, it does punctuation etc. It’s really is just better. With clean audio it transcribes like a human does.

It does better than other techniques with dirty audio, but when it fails it fails weird, which is the big issue here.

Whisper really is a lot better when it works, and it’s free. The problem is that it refuses to produce gibberish or give up when it doesn’t work. You’ll always need an editor.
