Dropsitenews published a list of websites Facebook uses to train its AI on. Multiple Lemmy instances are on the list as noticed by user BlueAEther

Hexbear is on there too. Also Facebook is very interested in people uploading their massive dongs to lemmynsfw.
Full article here.

ddos them
Does anyone have a link to the .txt file? I can’t grep the PDF.
I mean, the API is open.
I’ve been operating MORE privately on here than I would have on a closed/limited API.
This data was always going to end up harvested.
So I’m seeing leftists and nsfw instances being mainly targeted. Are they training AI, or collecting kompromat?
It’s just the main instances, don’t stress it
Can’t wait for that LLM to become a reddit-hating bloodthirsty linux obsessed furry femboy communist tankie with a weird fondness for beans, star trek and sturgeon

Yeah, the german lemmy went nuts with it last year. It was beautiful. Just search for Stör
Now I want to see a fully Hexbearified LLM.
Instead of racist conspiracy theories it will divert every topic to beans. And the saucy images will be mostly of cuties from Soviet posters.

My impression was that Meta’s backing out of Llama LLMs anyway, to focus on “products”
That’s good and also somewhat disappointing as they were the first to release the weights and mechanism to run them as open weights.
A lot of fully open source (and “ethically trained”, depending on your opinion of that entire idea) models still use major portions of the code they open sourced.
A lot of relatively “good” LLM models run on top of Llama.cpp
Meta pays for PyTorch development as well!
Llama.cpp will be fine of course, it technically has nothing to do with Meta.
But yeah, it’s mostly disappointing IMO…
And kinda stupid. These are literally experimental models; they release one experiment with mixed results, and admittedly catastrophically marketing for it, and Zuck pulls the rug?
This is why I go out of my way quite a bit to poison the AI with my pointless boomer anecdotes, largely made up or confiscated. Plus, I rarely proof read my comments anymore, so apologies for the grammatical issues and the hard to believe and rarely either one way or the other but twice the times there’s another type of type that you can also quite not, right?
Just go learn some slang from GenZ. You can skibidi toilet a granola guy and be extra.
😮💨
My instance gets pillaged once a day for 20 minutes by what I think is a scraper for an LLM.
The scraper grabs every post and profile page and the load on the server triggers alerts but the site stays usable.
I haven’t been able to put a stop to it as the requests come from 1500+ IP addresses, with different user agents.
Yeah, they’re scraping alright and it’s all purposefully done in such a way that you can’t stop it, you can’t control it.
AI companies are criminal as far as I am concerned
Run your access logs through something that will report the ASN for the client IPs. Goaccess would be my recommendation. It will require access to a GeoIP database which you can get from Maxmind by signing up for a free API key, or download them directly from P3TERX/GeoLite.mmdb on Github. We have identified a number of bot networks this way. Happy to help further if you’d like a hand 👍
Anubis?
I have no idea. I spot check 20 or so IP addresses and they are all from different AS networks. Truly diverse botnet. Feel powerless.
they were suggesting a solution, this proof-of-work web firewall: https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis
Ah thank you, will check it out
I think Anubis would be able to prevent that. Sopuli uses it
Thanks I’ll have a look
