Hi, I’m Fubarberry, and I recently took over moderation of this community due to the original mod being inactive.
This community isn’t very active right now, but I wanted to talk to what members are here about what you want from this community.
For example:
- should this community focus more on AI in general, AI as a tool for creating things (images/video/music/stories/etc), or something else?
- Should this sub be focused on a more positive discussion of AI? Personally I feel like there’s no shortage of places on lemmy to doompost about AI right now, so this community would be more useful discussing beneficial uses of AI. Constructive criticism/acknowledging of issues is fine.
- Should we focus on AI tools available to end-users, and/or discuss AI news in general (AI used for medical research for example).
- Any other thoughts and opinions you have on this community.
Also side note, but right now this community has a bit of an issue with new posts being immediately downvoted. I’m not sure if it’s members of the community, or people browsing /all, but I’d ask people to only downvote if the post is unrelated to the community or factually incorrect.
Some guides would be great!
I personally find updates to the big mainstream models interesting as well, both as a sign of where things are going, and also with how they can be worked into personal workflow stuff. For example I was reading about people using Gemini API for more powerful OCR for mass document digitizing, and it was interesting to me to read about what it’s relative strengths/weaknesses are compared to traditional methods.
