    Some many in these comments are like “what about the ethical source data ones?”

    Which ones? Name one.

    None of the big ones are. Wtf is ethically sourced? E.g. Ebay wants to collect data for ai shit. My mom has an account, and she could opt out of them using her data but when I told her about it, she told me that she didn’t understand. And she moved on. She just didn’t understand what the fuck they are doing and why she might should care. But I guess it is “ethically” sourced as they kinda asked by making it opt out, I guess.

    That surely is very ethical and you can not critic it for it… As we all know, an 50yo adult fucking a 14yo would also be totally cool as long as the 14yo doesn’t say no. Right? That is how our moral compass work. /S

    Fucking disgusting. All of you tech bro complain about people not getting ai or tech in general and then talk about ethically sourced data. I spit on you.

    I love IT, I work in it and I live it, but I have morals and you could too

      What’s wrong with what Pleias or AllenAI are doing? Those are using only data on the public domain or suitably licensed, and are not burning tons of watts on the process. They release everything as open source. For real. Public everything. Not the shit that Meta is doing, or the weights-only DeepSeek.

      It’s incredible seeing this shit over and over, specially in a place like Lemmy, where the people are supposed to be thinking outside the box, and being used to stuff which is less mainstream, like Linux, or, well, the fucking fediverse.

      Imagine people saying “yeah, fuck operating systems and software” because their only experience has been Microsoft Windows. Yes, those companies/NGOs are not making the rounds on the news much, but they exist, the same way that Linux existed 20 years ago, and it was our daily driver.

      Do I hate OpenAI? Heck, yeah, of course I do. And the other big companies that are doing horrible things with AI. But I don’t hate all in AI because I happen to not be an ignorant that sees only the 99% of it.

      Mozilla’s Common Voice seems pretty cool, but I’m not sure if that counts.

      It’s fun to record the clips.

        You could train it to analyze sales tactics for different categories of items or even for specific items, then offer the AI’s conclusions as an ‘AI assistant’ locked behind a paywall.

        Plenty of use cases for collecting e-commerce data.
