  • Congratulations to the person who downvoted this

    They use a tool to improve their life?! Screw them!


    Here’s hoping over the next few years we see little baby-sized language models running on laptops entirely devour the big tech AI companies, and that those models are not only open source but ethically trained. I think that will change this community here.

    I get why they’re absolutist (AI sucks for many humans today) but above your post as well you see so much drive-by downvoting, which will obviously chill discussion.

    Drat, various clients have disagreed about spoiler tags unfortunately 😕 but I thought we were past that!

    Which are you using? These tags are compliant with web Lemmy I think:

    
    ::: spoiler Tap for spoiler
    hidden content
    :::
    
    

    How it looks:

    Web - spoilers hidden

    Web - spoiler (2/2) revealed

    Voyager iOS - spoilers hidden

    Voyager iOS - spoiler (2/2) revealed


    Will share this with the dev of your app once I find out!


  • Nice

    Widespread interviewing as a practice would really set a tone right?

    “Yeah guys you can always use ChatGPT in her class but you HAVE to read and learn all the original source material FIRST”

    Teachers: hehehe yesss yess learnnnn children

    (Pair with on-the-spot writing tests with some accommodation for, IDK, various scenarios… shy kids, English Language Learners (ESL), etc.)



  • Thanks for this helpful feedback!

    Giving this a try:

    Tap for long thoughts

    I posted in this format as a workaround. Or a middle ground for the exact interface or presentation style I find to be optimal.

    The one which I personally enjoy the most. I really appreciate the fact that, in a world where I can only consume the smallest fraction of all human outputs out there, a screenshot lets me dive into the exact content and the exact format the original authors presented it in. Am I hooked? If so, I use my most valuable resource—my time—to engage further.

    Apparently I definitely felt the hacky-ness of the format:

    In fact, after posting, I began ideating essentially a browser extension that, if I managed to wireframe, I could present to aeharding (Alexander), the Voyager developer, and see if he could enhance the app to natively offer this feature. Or to an extension dev, or the Lemmy devs (though it’s resource intensive).

    What feature? A toggle to enable first page / viewport screenshots of all linked articles; tap screenshot to open article.

    The text preview seen at the top of my test screenshot does NOT do the article justice in my eyes, whereas the screenshot + link is almost everything I want. Lemmy is better for me like this but I’m ready to be convinced otherwise.

    (I am cognizant of the fact screenshots are not the most accessible, which is why I pair them with alt text.)

    May I ask for further feedback from you / your eight(+) upvoters on the specific negatives with my presentation / my idea?

    [tap] Maybe…

    I dislike the extra tap required to read the first handful of lines whereas y’all dislike the extra tap required to read the entire thing? 🤷‍♂️

    Could be worse for some apps or if someone’s using RSS…

    Oh and I should at least be marking that there’s more to read so folks don’t think the whole point is ONLY the screenshot.

    Thank you Grimy!


  • Feel bad for the guy

    The ChatGPT rhetorical style is distinctive enough that I can catch it, but not so distinctive to be worth passing along to an honor council. Even if I did, I’m not sure the marginal gains in the integrity of the class would be worth the hours spent litigating the issue.

    Arguments to be made for spending time now to set a tone of course!
