Encountered a person on Mastodon who said Mastodon should be inclusive of "AI" users.

It is our problem, a big one. One human setting up the #siliconiac agent is wreaking havoc to the servers, to the users, to the environment, and this way to every user of the Fediverse whether they follow, not follow, mute or block. The troll user can spit some hate here and there, some 20 posts per hour. Single siliconiac agent can do hundreds per minute on many servers, it will follow you to get fatter on your posts to mimic you later, then it eventually will get some followers that are less aware of the evils lurking.

> Them being used to being the biggest bully
They are. For your as a taxpayer money, for the polluted air you will breathe, for the arid desert made where their silicon bodies now hum.

@ohir
You're right.
I did not mean to disregard these facts.
That's why I block AI every way I can. And why I refuse to use it.

In this post, I put my focus on the human factor because it was this attitude I found disgraceful.

We're on the same page.

@YinYinFalcon @mirabilos He did manage to dig himself a hole, and then just kept on digging.

@mcc I met a Trump guy who started yelling "Free Speech! Free Speech! Where's my right to Free Speech! I got a right to Free Speech!" as I threw him out of my office for yelling. I said "Go yell at the mail box on the sidewalk. There's no Constitutional right to make me listen. Go Free Speech outside. Nobody cares."

It would have so much easier to block him.

@mcc the brass neck to use the word inclusive! If they said "I want more AI engagement", fine. Not for me, thank you, but they do them. But "inclusive" is a reserved word for the marginalized, not AI bros.

@HollieK72 indeed

and it's supposed to become a blog post - wonder if that will go any better

@YinYinFalcon *Orders in some popcorn for when he posts his blog*

@YinYinFalcon who cares about shitty Mastodon? It’s a blight on the Fediverse anyway.

[mausmalone@mastodon.social]

@MattMerk no, this is a reference to an old meme

[kcpoole@mastodon.au]

@regendans @mirabilos @mcc @Darkasvim @bunnyhero thanks for that link and I have blocked the culprit as well

[haste@mastodon.social]

@mcc why should I go out of my way to make AI users feel included? Cant’t they generate their own audience and talk to that? :^)

Mass blocking robots and their nannies is a victimless crime as far as I’m concerned

[guillotine_jones@beige.party]

@mcc
Well, heck, mcc, you DID include them in your "blocked" list!
