It also pales in comparison to the carbon cost of printing out the poster and lighting it.

There's Tasks.org, I remember trying it a while ago but I forget what turned me off. Not local-first maybe?

They're different things, Aurora is a privacy respecting alternative to the play store app. F-Droid is it's own thing but it's library does have some overlap.

Best practice is to get both, and check F-Droir first.

It worries me that there are scientists out there who are making studies based on the assumption that an LLM chat bot is a reasonable stand-in for a human in this context (in any context really but that's another conversation). It's just not what LLMs are, it's not what they are designed to do. They've fallen for the marketing.

We address this question using a novel method - generative social simulation - that embeds Large Language Models within Agent-Based Models to create socially rich synthetic platforms. We create a minimal platform where agents can post, repost, and follow others. We find that the resulting following-networks reproduce three well-documented dysfunctions: (1) partisan echo chambers; (2) concentrated influence among a small elite; and (3) the amplification of polarized voices - creating a 'social media prism' that distorts political discourse.

  1. lmao "generative AI chatbots trained on social media behave like social media users"
  2. Shame on ArsTechnica they should be better than to publish a study like this.

The first Star Trek that doesn't receive any backlash is the first Star Trek I'm not interested in.
