Option not to train the AI?

[pisum]

@questagame

Re the ability for QG and iNat users to communicate - this seems a legitimate goal, and something we’ve been wanting to implement for a while. We think we have some relatively easy solutions for this and hope to trial them asap.

it looks like you guys are continuing to do things without consultation: https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/new-questagame-feature/4869. i get that sometimes it’s better to ask for forgiveness than permission, but it seems like you guys have overplayed that card here.

@questagame

The only real AI “fear” we have is the lack of reasoned discussion about its design and purpose; a lack of transparency

cross out “AI” from the above quote, and this fairly well summarizes how i personally feel about how QuestaGame has decided to latch onto iNaturalist.
