have to say, love the idea behind it but Mastodon is the most toxic social network I use, not sure I want to stick around :-(

RE: @Blender@mastodon.social

idk folks, I really can't agree with the comments here, if a company offers you 240k€/year no strings attached to just improve your software, I would take the offer anytime even from Anthropic, c'mon

I'm not sold on the fact that politics-related toots should get CW for politics. What's the most convincing argument to do that?

Zig's Code of Conduct take on LLM is absolutely insane. How on earth did people allow this? Gives me zero trust on the project

@sgued@pouet.chapril.org To make one example: banning people for even *talking* about LLM is absurd, come on, it has no reasonable justification and a project has no right to tell me I can't even acknowledge that some technologies even exist

When I pushed back, I think many felt attacked and felt the need to state their disgust and unwillingness to buy from Frameworks. None of which was the topic of the discussion. The point is, again: falsely claiming that a company financially supports a neo-nazi is, IMO, really bad behavior, regardless of what other bad things the company is doing. Since we're not on Twitter, can we please have an adult conversation that's able to discuss things in their merit without feeling attacked? [2/2]

@reflex I still think the company is a strong net positive to the world, especially the FOSS world. I would have (strongly) preferred if they hadn't sent a dev unit to DHH, but it's not a deal breaker for me personally. I can understand the disappointment though.

@jibsaram The reasonable option IMO is the most obvious one: treat contributions as we've always done, putting the responsibility of submitted code in the author, regardless of the tools used to make the code. If the code is bad, or the MR misses obvious parts / is low quality, then it should be denied (and the author potentially banned, if it's that bad!). We don't need any extra AI rule IMO, just take responsibility for what you submit.

@mastodonmigration@mastodon.online I'm sorry that I keep being critical about this, but I really feel like I have to point out that these questions hardly make sense

Is generative AI code used or permitted to be used in Blender development?

It's impossibile to determine for sure whether a PR contains AI generated code. Any big FOSS project will contain AI generated code pretty soon, regardless of its policy.

Are integrations between Blender and AI companies permitted?

Blender exposes an Python (1/2)

@reflex Because context matters. A brief appearance in the background of a console that's indirectly related to a military company can be more easily explained by wanting to showcase many different consoles, just like they sent dev units to many distro people and not DHH specifically. I find it much easier to believe that they actually believe in the "big tent" idea they shared, I'm not a fan of it, but given how much of a support they're giving to the FOSS world, they are a net positive imo

@fabiscafe IMO, yes. I think there's a significant difference between sending laptop(s) to test for hardware support, and sending a significant amount of money to someone. But regardless of that, if somebody claims that framework has financially supported DHH, that's still misinformation, even if you think that there's no much difference between the two.

Generative AI Action, KDE for People
@alexia@shrimp.starlightnet.work there's https://community.kde.org/Policies/Commit_Policy stating "assistants and such must not be described in commits using tags like "Co-authored-by" or similar", de facto implying usage of AI tools, plus with a lack of policy the observed behavior was some KDE devs using LLMs (plus the usual slop contributions that are obviously turned down), so I think it's misleading to state the policy would allow something that wasn't allowed before, it's de facto a restriction

API, it seems absurd to me that Blender would police who can use the API. I doubt it's even possible.

Are Ai companies going to be able to train their models on Blender user's content?

If models are publicly available then it probably already happened. If not, then obviously not. How would a donation change anything here?

@leroy@indiehackers.social I really don't think that was the issue… it was only brought up by one, max two people. Still, the hardware was provided to test hardware compatibility (not monetized videos), and I think it would be a huge stretch to define "sending a machine to test hardware compatibility" as "financial support", since it does not help DHH finances at all.
