“Hardmaxxing is NECESSARY. Softmaxxing alone will NEVER mog you into viability — it’s like putting a fresh coat of paint on a crumbling building,” declares a chatbot featured prominently on OpenAI’s GPTs page. It has just analyzed a photograph of a man and deemed him “subhuman”. The page, prominently linked from the sidebar in the ChatGPT interface, lists “Looksmaxxing GPT” as #6 in the “Lifestyle” section, behind bots promising astrological analysis, color analysis, and “fictional not-real therapy”.

Hi everyone!

I'm conducting a brief survey (takes less than 1 minute) to better understand the Rust open source community. I'm particularly interested in learning about who contributes to Rust projects and what motivates or prevents people from getting involved.

I hope insights from this survey will help us identify better ways to support and engage potential contributors in the Rust community.

Thanks for taking the time to share your perspective!

Seeking Direction: Sharing AI-Aided Knowledge Beyond Corporate Platforms

As a Reddit (and RIF) refugee, I'm searching for a space to share various useful information where it can be easily found later. The challenge is that the definition of "useful" varies among individuals, and I suspect that Reddit and other "for -profit" moderators are overly influenced by corporate interests.

In the past, I spent considerable time figuring out how to accomplish tasks unrelated to my primary goals—tasks I usually only needed to do once. Now, I tend to ask AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, Deepseek, or other available models to assist with the task at hand. I've learned that by doing so, I can condense days or even weeks of effort into just a few hours, if not less.

However, a significant issue is that these AIs don't currently learn from my questions, and the knowledge they provide isn't propagated beyond the AI itself, unlike traditional sources. The AI models offering this information are essentially static, and the context of the current session is typically lost quickly.

The solution I envision is to take the results of successful chat sessions and post them somewhere on the internet where both humans and AIs can access and incorporate the information into their knowledge and training. The problem is that this approach doesn't align with the posting models of conventional for-profit services like Reddit or Facebook. I tested Reddit again this morning and immediately had a post rejected for "low effort," even though it would have taken me a long time to develop the content myself.

I'm looking for direction on:

Where to share this AI-generated knowledge so it's accessible and beneficial to others.

How to structure these posts to fit within the guidelines of non-commercial platforms like Lemmy.

What communities or instances would be receptive to such content.

Any suggestions or guidance would be greatly appreciated!
