@pino@social.cologne @eldritch48@mastodon.social @jschauma@mstdn.social Not liking your comparison doesn’t mean that anyone is necessarily fine with F***book. Those are two separate and totally unrelated things.
The general acceptance of “AI” and the general acceptance of F***book as the new AOL have plenty in common. It most certainly was a topic, and still is. None of the people I know here on the fediverse thought or think it was OK.
And I wholeheartedly don’t agree that it’s “less annoying” - whereas F***book tried to force as many people as possible to use their bull, “AI” is being foisted on us by pretty much every megacorp out there at the same time. It’s super annoying, and it’s even more destructive than F***book.

@AnachronistJohn@zia.io @eldritch48@mastodon.social @jschauma@mstdn.social Or was Facebook actually more annoying, but just not for these people that went along? When everyone suddenly was in WhatsApp and Facebook, while I wasn't, it definitely felt much worse to me than any AI offerings, which I can just deny without any direct consequences, or check for alternatives, or just wait. I don't see any point where - in my personal life - anybody or anything forces me into AI usage.
