Chaotic neutral should be a solo laptop screen.

Both of you are assholes.

Nothing warrants destroying things over a perceived misgendering.

At the same time, a bit of an asshole response from you, when you could have just politely said that you meant dude as gender neutral term

Unpopular opinion, but Tesla model 3 has been the best car with the lowest total cost of ownership.

Electricity is cheaper than gas by a lot, no moving parts or fluids to replace except washer fluid, brakes last forever since it’s Regen braking.

It’s also pretty fun to drive.

Not a fan of the dude, and never bought into the hype on the tech side, but it’s a solid car.

The cloud givith and the cloud taketh

No, because I need too much information for work. This would render me unable to perform my work, so I would need at least the replacement salary.

Rampant alcoholism.

Just switched to them. Would recommend so far.

You can also copyright the original character and make AI generate all the motions of that character. Since the originals was (human) created and copyrighted, it doesn’t matter that AI created art derived from that character isn’t copyrightable in of itself.

Plus there is also trademarks for character likeness.

All in all, I agree with you, this is a non issue for Hollywood studios.

You can train an effective one for a few hundred bucks now.

But that’s as high as the meter……

This was more or less a reflection of my personal experience.

When I was in school, we were taught how to do research. It involves going to Libraries and looking for primary secondary and tertiary sources via the Dewey decimal system. We were taught how to use almanacs and even had an almanac competition on how fast someone can find information.

Public institutions such as the Library system in the United States, were our “temple” of knowledge. Public support for Libraries was historically VERY high.

However, since the popularization of search engines, it has radically reshaped our expectations of finding information. We expect to find it at our fingertip, in less than 200ms, at the cost of quality and gatekeeping institutions that filtered out a lot of junk knowledge.

I was able to find a few articles talking about this: https://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/2477/2279

I especially love the quote, “Conflation of information retrieval with knowledge”

Sure, just do what California did via the CCPA and CPRA.

You can opt out of that party selling your data.

It 100% is more tax efficient and effective than going through the judicial system for every single warrant they want to execute. Can’t blame them for that.

I think the logic is more that if AI is inevitable, might as well be the first to make a shitload of money from it.

Which total wars though

Or a fart in a blanket :)

Slap some 2D anime girl avatar on it and you got yourself a top grossing v-tuber.

Google search engine destroyed lots of jobs. I would even argue, from a US perspective, it even changed our relationship to institutions of knowledge curation (libraries, news papers, magazines)

We’re all just learning here, but yeah, that’s pretty interesting to learn about effective synthetic data used for training.

My old canon printer is still going strong. 3rd party cartridges are very cheap.
