Remember you can download all of Wikipedia in your language and safely store it on a drive buried in your backyard, for after they rewrite history and eliminate freedom of speech.
By downloading it every month and seeding its torrent (totally legal!), you are also helping to keep Wikimedia accountable by providing competition.
Already got it downloaded. It's only like 100 - 150 gigabytes or something like that. Got it on my PC, my laptop, and my external hard drive. I don't trust the powers that be to keep it intact anymore so I'd rather have my own copy, even if outdated.
Some people can't really stop seeing conspiracies everywhere.
As long as billionaires are campaigning to destroy it, there is no place for that comment you made.
Pathetic...
I don't think an existing conspiracy is necessary, it's just a cheap way to help protect yourself and others against something that could happen one day.
I can understand that. But should one apply this to every aspect of their life, they'll just be living in a cave.
What about any of this remotely connects to "rewriting history and eliminating freedom of speech?"
It's AI involved in the process of editing articles.
Which is not relevant to the actual use case for AI being discussed. There's no direct AI involvement in editing articles being proposed here.
