The anti-AI sentiment in the free software communities is concerning. (lemmy.world)

Whenever AI is mentioned lots of people in the Linux space immediately react negatively. Creators like TheLinuxExperiment on YouTube always feel the need to add a disclaimer that “some people think AI is problematic” or something along those lines if an AI topic is discussed. I get that AI has many problems but at the same...

Antiochus,

You’re getting a lot of flack in these comments, but you are absolutely right. All the concerns people have raised about “AI” and the recent wave of machine learning tech are (mostly) valid, but that doesn’t mean AI isn’t incredibly effective in certain use cases. Rather than hating on the technology or ignoring it, the FOSS community should try to find ways of implementing AI that mitigate the problems, while continuing to educate users about the limitations of LLMs, etc.

Antiochus,

Oh, that’s very interesting. I knew about flak in the military context, but never realized it was the same word used in the idiom. The idiom actually makes a lot more sense now.

Antiochus,

Weren’t the devs also supposed to be adding the ability to rebind the overview to just the super key (like GNOME)? Is that still in the works?

Antiochus,

Yes, I don’t know all of the details, but most of the system config files like fstab and such are modifiable. I automount my NAS by putting a command in fstab.

Antiochus,

What instructions or guides do you recommend?

Antiochus,

You need to use amdgpu-pro, according to the page here. I tried installing the pro drivers on Linux Mint a few weeks ago and still couldn’t get hardware acceleration in Handbrake to work, but it might be worth a shot.

Antiochus,

They need to work on their branding. “Cloud Native” triggers images of subscription services and data mining. But the idea here is that the whole OS and its components are all sort of containerized, so you can just pull pre-configured “cloud” images that are guaranteed to work out of the box to your machine.
