If your org puts token burn as a KPI, there’s an app for that <3

I have seen yeah, though I think they're locked-down security enough that it might get flagged as malware

This is a list that needs to exist.

gwl@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 59d (5 replies)

Preferably either self-hosted git or one of the no-AI git hosts like Codeberg or git.gay

git.gay

kinda cool & makes me happy that this exists. <3

gwl@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 59d (3 replies)

They're good people, it's run by a collective called besties.house

aloofPenguin@piefed.world · 1 pts · 59d (2 replies)

wholeheartedly agree! are they affilliated with bestieverse by any chance? That instance ticks all the boxes for me and might get me to switch from .world

Unsure, I know they've got a official Mastodon server, but unsure if they have anything else such as Piefed/Lemmy/Pixelfed

They rated an AI company, as in there whole purpose is the usage and creation of AI, as cleaner than Wikimedia?

Which like, Wikimedia aren't clean for sure, but they're cleaner than companies whose whole purpose is to create Slop

Slop maker, should be 100% dirty:

Mistral Al French artificial intelligence company DIRTY (around 45% clean)

Slop maker, should be 100% dirty:

Midjourney Image-generating machine learning model. DIRTY (around 45% clean)

Uses slop, but don't produce it or sell apps to make it:

WIKIMEDIA Wikimedia Foundation American charitable organization

SHITTY (around 30% clean)

They're all provided! It's below the dates

gwl@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 58d (5 replies)

Ah wait, they reference the articles, but never actually link to them?

Aye, I see what you mean now

Doing a search of the titles does find them, and they're real, but fucking weird to just quote them without any linkbacks

Wait, it does have links, just bad UX makes that unclear, it looks like a subheading

All they really needed to do is put it as

Source: Link

What is KPI in this context?

LodeMike@lemmy.today · 4 pts · 57d

Key performance indicator

Basically thinking that employees that waste company funds are better than ones who know how to do it correctly

gwl@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 57d

Key Performance Index, corpo-speak for "we'll track this and if we need a reason to shitcan someone then say they didn't reach the arbitrary targets"
