A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I’m sure the most popular questions will go unanswered.
He will likely only answer cherry picked questions, vaguely at that.
We'll be telling our grandchildren that we remember the time /u/spez did an AMA...
Back in 2022 and 2023 i remember people finally getting fed up and abandoning corporate social media platforms in droves after realizing that 20 years of centralized platforms didnt work.
Please, please I can only get so excited for such a glorious future.
I feel like the “real reason” behind this stems from the pricing for AI training. Reddit wants to capitalize on its user-generated content for AI training. the safest way to do this, and ensure that no AI company can do this, and those large AI companies can’t argue that they’re getting unfair pricing compared to app developers.
That’s reddit’s big plan: sell user-generated content to large AI companies. That’s how you make a platform like reddit profitable. You resell content you got for free to massive companies willing to pay high prices for that content.
Yeah. Pretty clear now that Reddit, being community-driven above all else, would’ve struggled to get anywhere without Alexis around to handle basic human interactions in the early goings.
