"Being online does not mean accessing to everything everywhere on the net" - but still provides a random sample of the population
"It does? Do you have any study or numbers that prove it" - yep, the web poll of 175,000 people, as I already said
"fediverse have way much french people in proportion than the world have, that’s already a big bias" - only if the French have a different attitude to the rest of the world. Go ahead and provide any evidence you have
@breizh @davidrevoy @Stem
"there is more LGBT people in proportion than other social medias too, that’s another bias" - ditto"There is more people that care about privacy than in the general population, too" - ditto
"lot more of people on BlueSky than on the Fediverse is already a proof that the Fediverse isn’t a random sample" - no it isn't. Not sure what you're not understanding about the word "random", nor only 25 random votes needed
"there is some" - X is a Nazi Bar, so of course

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org And the Fediverse is a privacy-friendly bar.
If you aknowledge that X and the Fediverse have different people that have differents opinions, then you’re already destroyed your own point.

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org Not, it didn’t go well beyond your local reality, only by a little. People following the people that follow you have way more in common with you that you’d think (the language is one of them, first. I never responded to a dutch or greek poll AFAIK, only french and english ones…).
@breizh @davidrevoy @Stem
"it didn’t go well beyond your local reality, only by a little" - it went beyond by a factor of at least 150%, and that's even assuming ALL of my followers voted, which I know they didn't"I never responded to a dutch or greek poll AFAIK, only french and english ones" - my poll was a Maths poll, so language isn't an issue. Also there are translation tools

@breizh @davidrevoy @Stem
"the Fediverse is a privacy-friendly bar" and 90% of them are anti-AI"then you’re already destroyed your own point" - no I haven't. You haven't shown it wasn't shared on X as well

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org If the pro-AI/anti-AI position of people on X is the same, that would be a coincidence, not a proof that X is representative of the population either.
You are saying that people can be representative on certain subjects and not others, which don’t make any sense.
Either is representative on all subjects, ore none.
If X have more people accepting facsism than the Fedivers, then none of them are representating on any other subject, there’s already a bias.

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @Stem@framapiaf.org @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org Maybe that bias isn’t important, but you have to prove it, while you’re assuming it don’t have any importance until proven false, which is a really bad way to do statistics…

"If the pro-AI/anti-AI position of people on X is the same, that would be a coincidence" - or simply proof that we had a random sample to begin with"not a proof that X is representative of the population either." - a random sample of *25* people is representative of the population

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org A random sample of 25 people, maybe, but you have to prove it’s a random sample… my point is precisely that you can’t assume the Fediverse or the DDG poll was done on a random sample (because people sharing a DDG poll or using the Fediverse aren’t random, they are people that already have a bias toward privacy).

"there’s already a bias" - so you're saying that you can't ask fascists what they have for breakfast, because somehow being a fascist means they have different breakfast preferences to everyone else?
"Maybe that bias isn’t important" - you're finally catching on
"you have to prove it" - no I don't. YOU'RE the one claiming it's biased, YOU are the one who has to prove that claim
"you have to prove it’s a random sample" - nope, you have to show it was biased

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @Stem@framapiaf.org @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org I think that you should learn about filter bubble.
Local reality exist online the same way as they do offline. If you’re saying that a local reality isn’t a valid random sample, then a poll shared on the web isn’t either. Its results will depend on where it was shared, and who have shared it.

"they are people that already have a bias toward privacy" - it's hilarious you're establishing a link between people who care about privacy being against AI. You're nearly getting it now

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org Your last sentence is weird?
I mean, are you acknowledging that there is a link between caring privacy and being anti-AI?

"I think that you should learn about filter bubble" - you mean you need to learn about Statistics"Local reality exist online the same way as they do offline" - so what you're saying is that a random sample online is representative of a random sample offline, as I've been saying all along
"If you’re saying that a local reality isn’t a valid random sample" - nope. I said the random samples went way beyond local realities

@breizh @davidrevoy @Stem
"So local reality offline is a random sample?" - nope, never said that either -

There is a link between caring about privacy and being anti-AI.
There is a link between caring about the environment and being anti-AI too.
There is a lot of these links. That’s why it’s biased…

@breizh @davidrevoy @Stem
"So local reality offline is a random sample?" - nope, never said that either@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org …but this poll was done in a local reality online…
You’re not making any sense.

@SmartmanApps@dotnet.social @davidrevoy@framapiaf.org @Stem@framapiaf.org …but this poll was done in a local reality online…
You’re not making any sense.
@breizh @davidrevoy @Stem
"but this poll was done in a local reality online" - no it wasn't. It was shared across multiple platforms"You’re not making any sense" - as I already said, you need to learn about Statistics. Do that and it will all make sense
