Also, the underdog always touts Open Source and standards, so it’s good to remain skeptical when/if tables turn.
Pretty sure the only reason Meta’s managed to do this is because of Zuck’s iron grip on the board (majority voting rights). This is great for Open Source and regular people though!
Llama is probably just running on spare capacity (I mean, sure, they've kept increasing capex, but if they're worried about an llm-based fb competitor they sort of have to in order to enact their copycat strategy)
You are aware Facebook tracks everyone, not just people with Facebook accounts, right? They have a history of being anti-consumer in every sense of the word. So while I can understand where you're coming from, it's just not anywhere close to being reality.
If you want to or not, if you consent or not, Facebook is tracking and selling you.
No they are not selling me. How can they sell my attention to advertisers when I don't look at their ads? How can they influence me if I don't engage with their algorithm? You're the one who's trying to sell me your fear and mistrust.
Was always their modus operandi, surely. How else would they have survived.
Thanks for returning everyone else;s content and never mind all the content stealing your platform did.
