I had a look at the github repo. The summarization is being done by a library called Sumy.

After a quick look through it, you’re right that it doesn’t use machine learning. However, it does use a lot of key concepts from Natural Language Processing, such as Tokenization, which is a subfield of Artificial Intelligence.

How is the WHO affected by the 2 party system?

Why don’ men wear skirts or dresses?

If you are arguing that anyone should be able to wear whatever they want, regardless of gender or religion, I agree with you. But I know that’s not what you’re saying.

How many men are wearing bikinis?

who love teaching (why else would they teach)

Professors love doing academic research. Teaching is a requirement for them, not a passion they pursue (at least not for most of them).

I’m from neither country. I am however from one of the 100+ countries that has banned the use of cluster bombs for over a decade.

In my country, there’s still people dying from unexploded bombs leftovet from world war 1.

From an article on why cluster bombs are so controversial

Sixty percent of cluster bomb casualties are people injured while undertaking everyday activities, according to Reuters. One third of all recorded cluster munitions casualties are children.

So yes, while I keep being staunchly on the side of Ukraine and NATO helping them, this is not something I like to see.

They are looking at short term benefits, understandably. I may be naive, but still believe they can drive the Russians out with more conventional weapons. The fact that they seemingly don’t think so is actually worrying.

“At least if nuclear bombs help end this war…”

Just no.

Especially because these things will be used on Ukrainian soil. So it will be Ukranian people who will have to deal with the fallout for years/decades to come.

Reddit is among the most popular social media worldwide, with an estimated 55.79 million daily active users and 1.660 billion monthly active users in 2023.

Yeah, a drop in the bucket. Even considering lurkers and bots.

But that’s okay. The goal is to have a nice, active enough community outside of reddit. Reddit can keep on existing. I would argue not having everyone move here, or somewhere else, is good to keep the interaction healthy. Let alone the software and servers that couldn’t handle it.

The difference between piracy and having your content used for training a generative model, is that in the latter case, the content isn’t redistributed. It’s like downloading a movie from netflix (and eventually distributing it for free) vs watching a movie on netflix and using it as inspiration to make your own movie.

The legality of it all is unclear and most of that is because the technology evolved so quickly that the legal framework is just not equipped to deal with it. Despite the obvious moral issues with scraping artist’s content.

Difference between instances (Facebook) and communities (DT). Latter is easily blocked by users themselves, former might threaten the longevity of the fediverse.

Not saying I agree with that, but comparing the two is not fair.

• Is it possible the changes we are making are damaging to the way people are using reddit?

• No, it’s the mods who are wrong.
