fyi, all nips from the SAIF website are whitelisted to #NoorNode Just add it to your outbound/write relays if you want to use it and all your notes will flow into that feed.

how does blocking work on this platform?

The plan of SAIF is to create huge trainee camps for Idols, thoughts?

Depends on the situation

For a hands on approach, I'd probably start with jumble and nostrudel and make sure the person gets the idea of logging into different apps / switching back and forth

But nostter is very easy to instantly sign up for if I'm just posting a link I want people to reply to

And nostr.at leaves the person a couple steps away from onboarding, but it's probably most reliable for loading in the first place

Mine was Damus too, pretty smooth process. I thought primal was too mainstream for my taste and the mute didn’t really work.

yakihonne + coinos; it's really easy process

Although I appreciate your perspective, I think it's also important for us to be able to express satire and parody, without taking everything too seriously. No disrespect was intended. There have been many issues in the past from religious authorities from all faiths, including non-religious skeptics, with new technologies. Exercising caution is one thing, Orwellian control, over zealousness and stifling of innovation in worldly matters is another.

This is why everyone should use jumble, they have polls

i wasn't ready to stick with nostr until i found amethyst, perfect balance of lovely ui and ease of use for me

i tried a few others before, but they were missing images or poor formatting

Maybe the article is on a different relay, because I can’t find it.

What is this comment in response to?

4o performs better on everything overall still, 5 sends me to lower quality models when I only want high quality work only always lol

This is so true. MSSM has completely skewed the social mechanism. It has become far more attention seeking, because the only incentive is building followers and then expecting some ad revenue.

When you are motivated by #zaps and honest #value4value, the entire game changes, and the incentive quickly becomes QUALITY OVER QUANTITY.

LG🙌🏼

Absolutely not. I had 3 models write 1-2 chapters each, and it was all garbage. Logical contradictions, vague statements, etc. What you can use AI for, though, is to create a bullet-point outline of the plot after you've provided the general flow, and possibly check your story against it. That's called a "story bible" or something similar.

And feeding the entire story each time isn't possible because their memory isn't sufficient. Eventually, it "forgets" the beginning of the story. And generally, after a while it just writes nonsense. But you can upload this 'story bible' each time you want sections checked.

nostr isn't some computer game like these little algerian dweebs i got stuck in prison were treating salah.

it's legit communication. y'alls been spending too long on popularity contest sites like facebook and x and instagram and think that social media is some kind of social climber bullshit.

ok, if you are getting money by getting audience, sure, but if you are looking for actual communication and drilling down to getting exposure to potential clients it's a whole different game. every niche is far smaller and popularity is not the goal, the goal is sales. you get that with authenticity and slick presentations.

mainstream social media just turned into yet another advertising monetization scam just like the internet was before that with advertising.

nostr is a different game. we can't just game the system and get blasted at the hugest number of people to get conversion. we have to actually target our niche properly.

There have been scholarly discussions and cautious rulings around AI, but not blanket fatwas declaring it outright haram. The consensus across several studies is more nuanced—AI is generally considered permissible (mubah) unless it’s used in ways that contradict Islamic ethics or cause harm.

Scholars often begin with the principle that new technologies are allowed unless proven harmful or unethical.

If AI is used for beneficial purposes—like education, healthcare, or improving access to religious knowledge—it’s often encouraged. But if it’s used for deception, surveillance, or violating privacy, it may be deemed impermissible.

Some scholars have explored whether AI can issue fatwas. The ruling here is that AI can relay fatwas but not originate them, since it lacks human understanding, spiritual insight, and accountability.

- A study on GPT-3.5 found it could issue family law fatwas with surprising accuracy, but also made errors in sensitive areas like divorce and inheritance. Scholars emphasised the need for oversight and warned against relying solely on AI for religious rulings.

There are concerns about AI’s role in shaping moral decisions, especially when it comes to automation in warfare, surveillance, or biased algorithms.

- Scholars stress the importance of intent, transparency, and human accountability when deploying AI in Islamic contexts.

So while there’s no universal fatwa declaring AI haram, there’s a growing body of scholarship urging caution, ethical design, and clear boundaries.

The key thing is for us to be at the forefront of research and development and pioneer the next wave of technologies and play by our own rules. Not 'theirs'.

Dust Storm was long overdue this Monsoon Season. 🏜️

Finally getting power back, internet next.

Precisely.. I was supposed to review a 1000-page proposal document for work. It was all AI slop. Glad they had emojis all over so I can tell my boss, "we'll have to skip this proposal. We would have no idea if the company knows its shit or not"

He agreed. ✌🏼

I need to look for his takes on bitcoin.

But again, his entire channel seems to be about screaming at people 😂 I’m sure if someone comes to him and says bitcoin, he is going to dump on it just for views 🤣🤣

So I started listening to this episode, but just based on the clip, there’s definitely truth to what he’s saying no doubt, but there are a few issues:

1). I don’t agree with some of his assumptions about why this all happened, he thinks America just made “mistakes”, I think they were sabotaged from within

2). There hasn’t been a true red America or free markets in the US in the past 45 years.

3). His assumptions about the near future don’t consider the transition from dollar to btc. Everyone makes it sound like “yeah it’ll just happen”. There’s a lot that can go wrong for long periods of time.

4). Sure no doubt China is a beast due to industrialization, but if there’s a bitcoin standard then the CCP doesn’t control money, and money is speech. So they will have to adjust to a new world.

5). AI is a major factor of course. My view is that controlling AI as an authoritarian govt will be difficult. There will be truth available which can hurt you in a variety of ways, sometimes unfairly.

I still need to go back and fully give it a listen, but this is what I was thinking so far.

I wonder what would have happened if instead of sending our kids to school for 1st - 3rd grade, we instead got them to learn by talking to an AI about math, science, or languages.

Seems like it would be very good. There is a chance they will learn more than in school.

Fiat sheikhs should be outed.

That could really give TR the final push to BRICS. I mean, they're already flirting.

So yeah... This was a bust... Only 2 people showed up in meat space and only 4 or 5 people tuned in.

The cool thing was showing how fast it is to install Linux mint. Took us like 15 minutes. Super easy.

Oh well. I did what I said I was gonna do. Bright side is that I'm getting the Bosnian brother to join us on nostr inshaAllah. He seems very interested. nostr:note148gccfu2e2utdjvwvtvvez88cpvfv9ucjgemdkljlsjj0tjjkuks6k8m8q

🤣

It’s just a joke. Things have been relatively clean.

People are using and following the hashtag #birdstr

I wouldn’t call myself part of the birding community but I do participate in a yearly bird count. Happy to see more bird content 💜🦆🦉
