Greetings Fellow Pioneers of the Fediverse!

Are you a digital nomad who has recently migrated from another platform? Or perhaps a curious explorer who’s caught wind of Lemmy’s potential? Have you just begun your journey into the vast and promising landscape of decentralization?

For those still navigating the complexities of our brave new decentralized platform, I highly recommend watching this video. It does a good job encapsulating some of the immense potential and foundational principles of The Fediverse.

Once you’re up to speed, it’s time to delve deeper w/ FOSAI:

Are you experiencing FOMO around emerging technologies? Maybe you’re a hobbyist, researcher, or developer passionate about free and open-source projects?

If any of these resonate with you, congratulations! You’ve landed in the perfect hub for everything related to free and open-source artificial intelligence - a.k.a. FOSAI - a new, sub-movement of FOSS for AI-particular tech stacks and software implementation strategies/platforms.

At FOSAI, my aim is to keep you informed on the latest, most significant advancements in the rapidly evolving landscape of AI/LLM/Diffusion technologies. This endeavor is fueled by my genuine passion and hope for technology, not by clickbait, sensationalism, or social media rage-bait and disinformation campaigns this technology typically gets a bad rap for.

At the end of the day - I don’t care how many (or how little) people are following the movement so long as the information I share is valued, true, and used to support a goal that will better your life (and others).

Eager to dive into the world of AI today? I recommend visiting my resource-packed FOSAI Nexus Post or getting acquainted with my Lemmy Crash Course to Free Open-Source AI.

Embracing the philosophy of FOSS, we envision a future where empowerment, creativity, and ethics intertwine seamlessly with technology. Where the human experience is enhanced by innovation, not detracted by it. We believe in a future that lets you experiment with AI in any of its stages easily and accessibly - no matter the cost.

Here, we believe in a future where anyone can work with democratized super intelligent software and platforms that are not controlled by a select few, but by a majority of many. Where you own your data, your technology, what you do with it (and everything between). A future where you are not monitored for every action. Where your data is not being sold to the highest bidder.

A future that is free, a future that is open. A future that is as bright as we make it out to be without compromising the truth of our reality and the direction of our species.

My hope with this community is to foster patience, optimism, and trust in one another. I want to collect and share truths, processes, information, and workflows that educate and enhance our lives, fostering personal growth, development, and change. Real change. Tangible change. Not just the change you have been dreaming for, but the change you deserve.

When posting here, all I ask of you is to Know Thyself, be prepared to engage with dialogue that is intellectually empathetic, and to share/document processes and knowledge that is empowering to others, no matter their walk of life, experience or technical prowess.

I ask you to know our community. Know the impact of the words you share in earnest and to trust in one another that the empathy in which you seek to support is already there.
