A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

That was wild, yeah. Social media sites shouldn't lock down APIs because it's all user generated and LLMs should be given free reign to harvest user content for their own proprietary ends?

I guess I can agree that these two ideas aren't fully contradictory, but there's a lot of friction between these two conceptions of user's rights to their content/data.
