Fedilab is full of features and unfortunately it suffers from a lack of documentation describing them.
Currently, we don't know how to act with that issue. We don't have resources to write all this documentation.
Asking help is not so easy. We need persons knowing the app and that are familiar with dev (git + Hugo gohugo.io/)
We could create a fundraising for that issue but we will need advice for a such project.
Don't hesitate to share that message, thank you.

A drug addicted, uneducated, mean but rich South African lies about things he doesn't understand. Supported by another strange guy which pretends to be a politician, while being only a Goebbels successor (as President Biden found out).

Sounds promising, but in the long run, this kind of processing power will inevitably disrupt society. Machines will do any task a human being can do, just faster, better and cheaper. The owners of these machines will accumulate all the money, all the land, all the data and all the rights. 99% of humans will have nothing and be utterly useless, with no options left to change anything.
I didn't think this whole AI thing is a terribly clever idea. We are not prepared for this.
