I wonder if we are being groomed to hate it because it would be an effective tool to fight fascism with as well.

The copyright industry isnt our friend. Neither of them are fighting for us, they are fighting over who gets to fuck us over.

The record companies already have all the data and all the rights. Petitions like these are meant to rig the game in their favor, so we get the official Warner Music AI at a high price point with licensing fees, and anything open source is deemed illegal and cant be used in products.

If you’re on the side that stands with Disney, you are probably on the wrong one.

Please, save the copyright industry! If using these for AI isnt made ridiculously expensive, we will never be able to build a proper monopoly on top of this tech!

They get popular artists to sign these things but its the record companies (all three of them) that are really behind this.

P.S. I don’t do anal.

No deal.

Batteries are not something you should mess around with without experience. There is a very real chance of a fire and your insurance might not pay out if its caused by you.

It’s doable but I would be very careful and triple check everything. The better solution is probably to plug it into an outlet or directly wired into the house, with the solar panels on the roof instead serving the entirety of your home.

Not to mention the gun that was left in easy reach by his parents even after being told he was depressed.

I have to give it to Valve, their marketing team is really good.

I don’t either hut the alternative is much worst in my opinion. It would mean the algorithms are so advanced they are predicting conversations instead of listening to them.

I’m okay with that but it’s frustrating that it’s the complete opposite for men. We can’t even make the lewd jokes! My signature “jingle my bells” holiday pants completely ruined my middle school teaching career.

basically no real use

"The horse is here to stay, but the automobile is only a novelty — a fad.”

Also, will you get mad at the next new industry? I highly doubt it.

As much as I think this is a great solution and should be written into law, the anti-ai crowd only asks it from one industry and it’s a clear sign of bias.

Not to mention that the big companies are literally doing it, either building new nuclear plants or restarting old ones. They aren’t the one holding green energy back, the oil cartel and their corrupt politicians are.

If literal genocide wasn’t enough, I doubt this will be.

I buy my chips directly from China when I can. The fact is, if I buy it from a distributor here, it comes from the same place but costs a stupid amount more. I’m talking about opamps that are 80 cents from China but 30 dollars on digikey.

The US has a greedy middle man issue. I think bringing up home grown production is good for security reasons but I know someone’s buddy is going to get all the profit and we won’t actually have competitive prices.

Making a prototype of something is bloody expensive already, even when dealing directly with China.

Reddit and newspapers selling their data preemptively has to do with LLMs. Can you clarify what scenario you are aiming for? It sounds like you want the courts to rule that AI companies need to ask each individual redditor if they can use his comments for training. I don’t see this happening personally.

Getty gives itself the right to license all photos uploaded and already trained a generative model on those btw.

They won’t need to, they will get it from Getty. All these websites have a ToS that make it very clear they can do whatever they want with what you upload. The courts will simply never side with the small time photographer who makes 50$ a month with his stock photos hosted on someone else’s website. The laws will be in favor of databrokers and the handful of big AI companies.

Anyone self hosting will simply not get a call. Journalists will keep the same salary while the newspaper’s owner gets a fat bonus. Even Reddit already sold it’s data for 60 million and none of that went anywhere but spezs coke fund.

If we can’t train on unlicensed data, there is no open-source scene. Even worse, AI stays but it becomes a monopoly in the hands of the few who can pay for the data.

Most of that data is owned and aggregated by entities such as record labels, Hollywood, Instagram, reddit, Getty, etc.

The field would still remain hyper competitive for artists and other trades that are affected by AI. It would only cause all the new AI based tools to be behind expensive censored subscription models owned by either Microsoft or Google.

I think forcing all models trained on unlicensed data to be open source is a great idea but actually rooting for civil lawsuits which essentially entail a huge broadening of copyright laws is simply fool hardy imo.

All video generation models are heavily trained on YouTube. YouTube and Hollywood are essentially the only datasets.

Smoking rabbit is my spirit animal.

Fuck. I guess out of the three I’ll keep smoking but stop using condoms and vaccines to compensate.
