Forgetting points that were already made is something that I commonly encounter, but I just attribute that to people being generally forgetful. I don’t have any expectation of other people putting in much effort in rereading the whole thread before each response; so if someone forgets what was previously discussed, I’ll just respond with a summary and continue from there.
If the purpose of the bot is to help you find people to interact with, I think so. In my case, I’ve already made the space, but there’s no one to interact with. I don’t know if it’s a matter of no one on Lemmy having the same interests or that they don’t know that the community exists. A bot/person to redirect people there would at least rule out the possibility of the latter.
I don’t see how the vote count contradicts that message. As of this moment, the vote count (upvotes - downvotes) is 110 on the parent comment criticizing the use of AI art and 260 on the main post. Technically a minority, but it’s a sizable minority.
I also don’t agree that it’s off-topic. The contents of the meme is the topic. The contents are AI generated, so that makes it one of the topics.
Object recognition is good enough for this kind of task now IMO. The problem is with controlling physical hardware, which is a problem typically handled by reinforcement learning. This is a difficult problem for current techniques mainly because of its sequential nature (i.e. what you need to do now depends on the state you’re in, which depends on what you did a second ago). Being sequential means you can’t easily take advantage of GPUs for parallelizing a huge amount of work like you can for image generation where you produce the entire thing at once.
Same for me. I’ve known about Docker for many years now but never understood why I would want to use it when I can just as easily install things directly and just never touch them. Then I ran into dependency problems where two pieces of software required different versions of the same library. Docker just made this problem completely trivial.
Absence of moderation is in itself a form of censorship.
