Large language models (LLM) are the product of neural networks, a relatively recent innovation in the field of computer intelligence.

Since these systems are surprisingly adept at producing natural sounding language, and is good at create answers that sound correct (and sometimes actually happen to be) marketers have seized on this as an innovation, called it AI (a term with a complicated history), and have started slapping it onto every product.

That’s what they’re saying - it’s not true, but it is what they’re saying.

Rome wasn’t built in a day. Think of it of getting in at the ground floor, where we’ll create topics and in-jokes that will be repeated ad nauseum for decades!

I have a few friends that are fed up with Microsoft and Google and other big tech. We’ve been degoogling and trying Linux together (errr, they have - I’m the grizzled Linux junkie they all reached out to for advice).

Most of them have tried all the different fediverse products and they’ve found homes here and there.

Some of them have graduated into self-hosting even. I find this bit wonderful, if it’s unfortunate how far the industry had to rot before they considered the move.
