I'd like to take this opportunity to say that I've been using and following Obsidian's development since 2020 and I really appreciate the way your company supports the open source community!
fnfontana··on Watermark Remover (AI Powered)
The content aware fill on Photoshop can do the same thing, actually, there are many AI based solutions to remove watermarks and a considerable amount of them are free to use.

Watermarks is no more a stopper for people who don't want to pay for images. Here is an opportunity to inventing new ways to protect stock images.

fnfontana··on Chat GPT is the birth of the real Web 3.0, and it's not going to be fun
And most people are thinking on ChatGPT like it couldn't evolve. Like it was statically attached to its current state. They are not considering its astonishing potential to evolve.

It's just the beginning, just like the internet on the early 90s. Give it 30 more years and we all gonna be AI dependants, like we are on the internet. On the near decades the future generations will not be able to just imagine life before AIs.

fnfontana··on The unequal treatment of demographic groups by ChatGPT/OpenAI content moderation
That's why I've said should, not must. There's no cosmic exile and all the knowledge that we have is yet limited.
fnfontana··on The unequal treatment of demographic groups by ChatGPT/OpenAI content moderation
I understand it.
fnfontana··on The unequal treatment of demographic groups by ChatGPT/OpenAI content moderation
I have perceived that since the first days. I've even debated with ChatGPT about it lol.

I can foresee many AIs propagating biases and people believing without critical reasoning, like it was an oracle. Actually it's already happening.

The AI may be biased because most of the literature and other materials used for training is biased towards left leaning ideologies.

The AI should be neutral and unbiased.

fnfontana··on Ask HN: Those making $0/month or less on side projects – Show and tell
I would suggest you to place a donation regressive counter with the price that takes to make the website run, let's say 100 USD, everytime someone make a donation the value updates until it reaches the donation goal of the month.
fnfontana··on ChatGPT and the Enshittening of Knowledge
There's a famous quotes from Bill Gates that is "My children will have computers, yes, but before they will have books. Without books, without reading, our children will be unable to write, including their own story."

On my personal experience, ChatGPT is a precious tool to refine knowledge and thinking, but it depends on how it's used.

The same painting brush can be used to paint Monalisa or a meaningless blurred thing. It depends on how it's used.

To use ChatGPT and other AI tools properly, we need to build a solid foundation of knowledge and critical thinking skills at first. Then triangulate the answers given by the AI with other sources, our own previous knowledge along with new evidences through experimentation.

Since the brain urges for cognitive relief, most people will be lazy, while just a few will extract the true potential of ChatGPT.

fnfontana··on What Is AGI-Hard
Interesting point you raised.
fnfontana··on What Is AGI-Hard
Indeed. A person can be bad at math, but really good on play musical instruments or to guide himself through a unknown city. That requires a certain level of intelligence. But I think there's no human that is intelligent on every aspect, maybe some exceptions like Da Vinci, but most people are good at some tasks while other people doesn't. The human intelligence seems to be distributed throughout the population. This creates an illusion that human intelligence is general.
fnfontana··on Where does ChatGPT fall on the political compass?
I've found ChatGPT sober and neutral in politics, it you conduct the AI to an unbiased point of view through your questions. I've presented my ideas of building a multidimensional political model with many dimensions instead of a single axis political spectrum. It not only gave me answers out of the mainstream thinking, but it helps me to refine the model using some mathematical and philosophical concepts.
fnfontana··on Ooh.directory
I think that search engines like Google are unbeatable to find content that we already know about. On the other hand, those lists are great to discover what we don't already know about, such as new topics, etc. Just like the awesome lists on GitHub.
fnfontana··on Laika, the space dog, and her one-way trip into orbit (2018)
At least Laika server for a noble cause. What I think is terrible is the fact that Soviet Army tied up bombs on dogs and let the run after enemy tanks on the WWII. Humans sometimes acts disgustingly.

I have started to learn Vim about a year ago and still learning new tricks each day
fnfontana··on Show HN: CLI Based Favicon Downloader
I've found this to be very helpful when using nativefier to create native apps of my favorite web applications.

I'm not the author, but I've found this project to be very underrated, so I'm bringing it to people's attention.
