Unless I'm misunderstanding it looks like they do work with rclone https://rclone.org/protondrive/

For anyone who hasn't seen this, it is an excellent documentary and well worth it even if DS9 isn't your favorite.

I'm not convinced that the group of people who are already skeptical of the veracity of the non-AI content they see on social media are going to suddenly start believing that short form videos are reflecting reality simply because an AI made it instead of a human. The current problem with misinformation isn't that it's "too poorly animated".

EDIT: I should say if and when CNN starts generating realistic AI videos claiming they are reality, then we have a problem. But anyone skeptical of randomdude69's Tweets is not going to start believing them "because AI".

I don't really get the concern. Anyone who cares about understanding reality isn't looking to social media for it, and the people who don't care about reality don't need AI to believe whatever nonsense is convenient for them.

Are we doomed? Yes, but AI isn't changing that.

Outside of computing costs, there is no limit to the length of video generated, but keeping the output coherent and contextual for more than a few seconds is a completely different puzzle to solve.

Same reason ChatGPT 3.0 could make realistic Reddit comments half a decade ago but the latest models still can't generate more than a paragraph or two before losing the thread.

This is the best thing I've read in weeks

I think what Optional is getting at is that "running an initial wide search then checking the specific sources" is not an improvement on the current system.

Y'all will always blame the woman for the actions of a man.

jesus christ why do some of you people even watch the show

No opinion is so important that it needs to post it to Reddit imo

Weird I literally see "free":

404 does have paywalled articles but I've tried a few browsers/VPN and this doesn't seem to be one of them.

Suuure

Are you a bot lmao it looks nothing like lcars

This is cool but why can't we change the whole theme😖

Kevin Rose and Alexis Ohanian own Digg now. Alexis Ohanian never worked at Digg and Kevin Rose was replaced as CEO by the board in 2010 for non-involvement. It's still going to be a non-federated for profit platform. But there's no reason to think they would ruin Pocket or even change it dramatically.

Any inconveniences you've noticed with Graphene? For example I've heard tap to pay functionality doesn't work.

There's no need for hostility, your characterization of what is happening does not reflect reality.

Well said, I was thinking maybe the entire reason OPs charisma is -1 is because they're out there trying to convince people to do something instead of just doing their own thing.

I agree, I really don't think the concerns about "not being able to tell what's real" will be a major issue (at least to those who care about knowing what's real). Social media has been full of human-made slop for years and if someone is getting their sense of reality from social media posts, then that is the problem and AI isn't going to dramatically change that.
