News
Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Hey if you think chat gpt can break you (or has any agency at all), I have a bridge to sell you.
ChatGPT and the others have absolutely broken people, not because it has agency, but because in our dystopia of social media and (Mis)information overload, many just need the slightest push, and LLMs are perfect for taking those close to the edge off of it.
I see LLM use as potentially as a toxic to the mind is as something like nicotine is to the body. It's not Skynet meaning to harm or help us, it's an invention that takes our written thoughts and blasts back a disturbing meta reflection/echo/output of a humanity's average response to it. We don't seem to care how that will effect us psychologically when there's profit to be made.
But there are already plenty of cases of murders and suicides with these as factors.
If someone sells you arsenic and tells you to eat it. The arsenic didn't kill you, the person who sold it to you did.
Blaming AI is the company's way of making sure you'll keep looking at the fucking hammer instead of at the hand weilding it.
Completely fair.
For the record I am a socialist who thinks all billionaires and most to all centimillionaires are as mentally diseased as serial killers and far more effectively destructive to society than any serial killer that has ever walked the earth, and they all belong in mental health facilities for everyone else's safety to protect us from their sociopathic avarice disease.
Capitalism and lack of social structure broke them first, chatGPT is just the thing that they imprinted on in response.
Is it up for sale again?! I missed out the last time!
Eliza could break people. Something doesn't need agency to be psychologically manipulative and damaging.
