The argument the mod writes is 👌

Update : there’s a new one that appears but, I’ve checked, that’s the same mod as the others

Update 2 : got contacted by the mod, overall sweet guy/gal we agree to disagree and keep the ban up, who said that Lemmy cannot be civil

    The computers in Star Trek are fictional. They work because the plot needs them too. They do not resemble a large language program because they don’t resemble anything. You might as well say CSI: Miami’s enhance image computer is AI.

    The mod who typed that up might as well just declare from the rooftops, “I fell for a Silicon Valley marketing trick of describing software with a sci-fi tropes.”

      The ai in Star Trek is actually helpful and everyone is having their needs met thanks to technology eliminating scarcity. The AI in real life is useless and causing even more problems for everyone.

        Not wanting to live in the Star Trek universe is honestly crazy it’s basically Paradise compared to the real world, even billionaires would likely be better off in that universe from a fulfilment and happiness perspective

          Well, as long as you live in the imperial core. Every other episode is them visiting the kind of dirt farmers that would be jealous of current day Afghanistan.

            What do you mean? Films and TV exist they’re shown on Voyager it’s one of Tom’s obsessions. Technically I guess they aren’t really making new ones but that’s just because the entertainment moved over to the holodeck novels

    Isn’t “post-scarcity society” a big part of star trek too? Weird to claim you are a star trek fan while defending “scarcity generator 3000.”

    we agree to disagree and keep the ban up, who said that Lemmy cannot be civil

    had a similar interaction with another mod. they weren’t applying the rules unilaterally and temp banned me. I pointed out the hypocrisy/favoritism. they decided to lift the ban. I said, no, ban them too. we both broke the rules. they did it begrudgingly, so I blocked the community.

    I refuse to interact with a community where mods begrudgingly apply the rules they’re entrusted with upholding. If I break the rules, so be it. if we break the rules we all are punished, no exceptions.

    Single-Board Computer Stuff@discuss.online, Retrofuture Things@lemmy.today, Space News@lemmy.today don’t sound like AI comms to me?

    Can I be banned here if I would say something nice about ai (as tool not companies)?

      you’d be doing so ironically, so probably not.

      it’s not like we’re one of the “women only” communities that ban you as soon as you out yourself.

      edit: I hurt someones feefees 😭. tell me, was what I said untrue?
