Thanks, this was educational

Do you think there's currently a better platform than Lemmy for reddit-shaped content ?

That's impressive for someone who seems clueless

I would encourage you to give foundational large models a chance

I think you'll find that (barring intentionally subversive inputs) the largest and most powerful models basically don't hallucinate

O1 in particular is better than humans in my experience

I would argue that you've clearly formed your opinion without spending significant time giving foundational LLMs a chance

This isn't just a bit of a liberal echo chamber

Lemmings have the belief that talking about neutral or grey areas incite the opposition and they're willing to go on loud, masturbatory tirades and attack others to control the narrative and shut down conversation

Your examples are great ones.

My opinion is that there's an ultra loud monitority of individuals here who are super focused on a small selection of the left wing agenda (identity politics is a big one, Israel is another, AI is a third).

I think the solution is to appeal to a broader audience and grow the platform but it's a bit of a self fulfilling prophecy at the moment

I would argue that all of the cases you presented fail at a comparable rate compared to foundational LLMs

This is a good and fair point

But I would counter that there are a number of co-mingling biases and suboptimal, systematic, societal issues at play which led to this, and I would argue that no one knew there were 60 million like minded votes until election day

I think your argument puts the cart before the horse. These people were prepared to vote for Trump long, long before, and it wasn't because they all loudly talked about it together

Fox News for example is infinitely more at blame than your racist uncle, and my original point was that giving your racist uncle even an ounce of your attention is a kind of misplaced hate

This is a legit hacker news take but Lemmy circle jerk will have none of it

I actually do not think that's a fair assumption. In my experience conservative voters are significantly less likely to talk about their beliefs and choices

In fact I would argue that across the political spectrum, there's a loud minority

  1. I am not saying you shouldn't shame people for their voting choice as a demonstration of lack of critical thought or moral compass. You should.
  2. I am not saying that all the political parties are equally guilty. I am obviously talking about Trump as the much greater evil of the available evils.
  3. I am not saying that votes never count or have impact. They sometimes do.

All I really want to say is that blaming your friends and family for the election outcome is misguided and probably serves to benefit the political machine in its current form more than it serves to affect voter choice.
