Used to love the gaming and gaming related sub-reddits. Its sad what its become. While /c/gaming (and other related lemmy instances) may not be as active, it feels like it has much more human reactions than reddit at this point.

The text in the link: “So many esoteric questions that seem to only aim to answer the most niche, weird edge cases and obscure topics. Has everything else already been covered and these sorts of questions are all that’s left? Or is someone using the commenters of this sub to train an AI?”

    I hate to be the bearer of bad news for AI Haters, but if something is accessible on the internet, it absolutely is being used to train an AI somewhere.

    Yes, even here.

      I’m sorry I can’t help you with that. I’m just a large language model. To make it up to you here is a recipe for vegan Salisbury steak using only ingredients starting with the letter “P”.

      There is a dude (or maybe more than one) that in all his comments he has an anti AI flair, or something like that, I wonder if that would have any effect.

        No, because then information is locked behind walled gardens, plus the AI training material is still siphoned from them anyway. All it takes is one AI training user being added or one account being compromised.

        If you don’t want AI to use it, don’t post it online. And don’t let people post it online.

        Basically my point is there is literally nothing you can do.
