So far, are AI chatbots saving you work or giving you more to do?

@JeffC1956 @ntnsndr you do you. i've mostly found it invasive and only really good at making things sound like anyone could have written them, quashing any style or voice. i suppose i could use them to re-write emails to be corporate friendly.

@rose_alibi @JeffC1956 It is really hard. I am in awe of what they can do, in some respects, but I also assume that any email I'm not willing to write myself is probably not worth writing.

That said, this is a world that demands many emails be written that are not worth writing.

Maybe the question of whether a system is governable matters more than whether it is open.

@ntnsndr @light I can't see the original message but yes, self-hosting is totally possible!

Also if interested in fully technically decentralized, there is a recent paper just out that removes the need for a governance server and does everything on clients using the MLS protocol: https://james.grimmelmann.net/files/articles/private-hierarchical-governance.pdf

@axz @light That's phenomenal. Thank you for sharing!

Turns out when you build a co-op news org, you get awesome coverage of co-ops.

New from the @coloradosun: A workers’ co-op rises from the remains of a Colorado mushroom farm https://coloradosun.com/2024/05/19/undocumented-workers-sand-dunes-mushroom-co-op/

If you wanted to build a database/website on Notion but then instead wanted to do it in a portable, FLOSS-y way, how would you do it?

@ntnsndr Accessible by others, but you're the one editing? I haven't tried it, but there's a hosted service that goes with Obsidian.

I am noticing, in a discussion on indigeneity, how my own lineage of exile, migration, and diaspora makes me more comfortable trusting trans-territorial networks than territorial states.

@ntnsndr@social.coop avatar

@jonny totally. Though land-centered non-state Indigenous perspectives can be anarchist too. I am just seeing how there is wisdom both in land-centeted stewardship traditions and network-centered diasporas.

@ntnsndr
Exactly!!! There is no contradiction in people connected by space and people connected by an idea organizing outside of the nation state together :)
