The question with AI is very simple and it is the same as with any technology: if we let big corporations to monopolize it, then all use cases (even strongly legitimate and ethical ones) will push people to their closed ecosystem.

I think AI in Linux could be a good and useful tool like many of the other things in Linux however, what I'm vehemently opposed to is including AI in the operating system by default furthermore I'm opposed to AI that needs Cloud infrastructure to run. If Fedora and other distro maintainers want to include AI it should be available as a voluntary download and it should be a locally running application this way everyone remains honest, and those of us who don't want AI integration in our operating system won't have it shoved down our throat like Copilot.

@sbme1147 2 месяца назад

Exactly This. One of the main reasons I just put Debian 12.5 on older laptop. Will take a little bit to get it fully up and running but I'm learning.

You can’t train an AI on “ethically sourced data.” There’s not enough data of that type in existence. You’re talking just public domain stuff, which for an LLM would make the AI sound more like Shakespeare than a useful modern assistant. And for images, the largest source of public domain images are those that were generated by AI. The number of human produced images in the public domain is minuscule considering the length of copyrights and the relatively short period of time cameras have been available to the general public.

"We can't find a way to affect the kernel modules and boot state on Linux."

@craigslist6988 2 месяца назад

It's not a skill issue, Linux just isn't ready made to be rootkitted like windows. It has actual security that has to be patched through. The entire "cheat detector" is still security through obscurity and making one for Linux would expose too much of how they work, making it even more trivial to create workarounds. The cheaters make workarounds anyway, they are always a step ahead of slow moving companies, but as consolation the game companies will now have hardware level access to collect data on your systems... so still worth for them. Idk why anyone would install this trash.. It already exists for many games and are those games are free of cheaters? Nope.

@AshnSilvercorp 2 месяца назад

@@craigslist6988 That was my point though. They apparently can't be bothered to make better anti-cheat that doesn't rely on trapping the system. And yea, there are overhead memory access cheats that will probably never be able to be patched to work with something like sandboxed or server-side anti-cheat, but their lack of willingness to try and absolute laziness to just say "well, we know how the game works and how it would be exploited for cheating, but nah, We're just going to put a third-party scanner on people's hardware that hardly works and call it a day"-- it's pathetic laziness that these big companies can't solve. And their responses of "oh its an endless battle" as these games with kernel level anti-cheat see just as much cheaters as TF2 and it's antiquated setup is horrendous. So maybe it isn't a skill issue. They just don't even try.

For one, ChatGPT is exceptionally good at writing scripts and solving problems on Linux today. I keep hearing complaints from Windows people trying Linux - that they often find themselves stuck in BASH trying to look up and remember commands for doing certain things. This could help them learn, or at least automate things by accepting human language and writing the scripts for them... Software names can also be a mystery to newcomers: it could help you choose software based on the needs you describe to it and figure out the difference between the different software; solve problems you encounter trying to do something... Sure you have a search engine for that, but this is more of a hands-on approach. :P Not vibing it with the default desktop backgrounds? You could ask an image generating AI to make something more appropriate for you. I would. An AI layer could be interesting IMO, though I don't think I'd have enough resources available locally to make good use of it. I WOULD like a standardized API for such things so that I would have a choice of whether to hook to ChatGPT, some other service, or even a cluster of laptops at home - that's what having AI on Linux would be all about, compared to the proprietary shit...

The speech to text, using the large Whisper model, is better than anything I have ever seen: it got "less well known eleventh century hagiographer" accurately on the first test we did. Haven't tried text to speech, and a quick test of translation suggested something at about the same level as Google Translate--useful, but with basic grammatical errors. The speech to text, though not real time, made me realise that there is a use for LLMs in my little world, and Speech Note handles recorded voice files, which is the obvious use for the desktop.

The guy who runs the PirateSoftware channel used to catch cheaters for various Blizzard games when he worked there, including world of warcraft and diablo 3, and he did it using heuristics of what people were doing in the game itself. For example, some of the shop UI in diablo 3 was loaded off screen and so invisible to the player but visible to a bot, so he caught a load of botters by building a heuristic to detect people clicking on UI elements that they wouldn't be able to see. He loathes kernel level anti-cheat because while cheat vs anti-cheat is always an arms race, detecting cheating by in game behaviour and then doing bans in waves (every 3-6 months or so) not only makes it so that the people who make the software then have to guess about how they were caught, if they charge money for their software they also have a bunch of pissed off customers wanting their money back.

I see AI as a huge opportunity for copyleft, so long as it is taken advantage of. The copyright aspects of AI training are a huge roadblock for most models, but that doesn't apply if explicit permission is granted in the license to use the work and make derivatives. That means that if an LLM is trained on the vast corpus of CC-BY-SA and compatible work, its outputs would all need to be CC-BY-SA. Same goes for image generators. Coding LLMs too, substituting CC-BY-SA for GPL. While it would still cause fragmentation around the different incompatible Free licenses, that's still a huge improvement over the situation with closed models, where the data all needs to be either Free but non-copyleft or specifically (expensively) licensed the way that Adobe is doing with Firefly or Google is trying with Reddit. Imagine what it would mean if the most powerful tools for writing code meant that all the code had to be copyleft. But none of that can happen if it's just ignored. I'm sorry if this was an incoherent mess, I'm running on three hours of sleep.

@noderunner_ 2 месяца назад

I've pondered this issue as well, and I've come to see intellectual property as a house of cards propped up by profiteering lobbyists. The expectation that a machine learning model must strictly adhere to the licensing of its training data mirrors the notion that a human artist drawing inspiration from existing work must conform to the wishes of the original creator - an unnecessary and restrictive constraint on individual autonomy.

@skywz 2 месяца назад

@@noderunner_ That's certainly a debatable point, but the fact is that *at the moment*, the law is not clear. For all we know, the outputs will all be public domain. This is just one possibility, and I think that the potential upside is worth the risk. Even if it doesn't work out, we still get an ethical AI, which we don't really have.

@noderunner_ 2 месяца назад

@@skywz There's a prevalent sentiment that Machine Learning is deemed 'unethical' when models are trained on copyrighted data. Advocates of 'ethical AI,' pushing for more stringent intellectual property laws in ML, risk steering us into a dystopia where generated content becomes monopolized by corporate entities under complex IP regulations. This stifling landscape will impede individual freedom, leaving only those with the resources to navigate legal complexities to benefit from this transformative technology.

@skywz 2 месяца назад

@@noderunner_ I've actually made this argument myself in person. When I say "ethical" I mean that it is ethical by promoting copyleft works through its output and ethical by being local, private, and transparent.

I feel like Fedora will probably have a decent implementation. I find Linux out of the box feels ancient for not having AI features out of the box. People coming from macOS take AI for granted. I've been able to mnually add AI powered features to my own Linux box, and it is a lot cooler for that. I think the best decision is if they make the AI features locally run or make it an optional component.
