The Irony of 'You Wouldn't Download a Car' Making a Comeback in AI Debates
  • Even if you come to the conclusion that these models should be allowed to "learn" from copyrighted material, the issue is that they can and will reproduce copyrighted material.

    They might not recreate a picture of Mickey Mouse that exists already, but they will draw a picture of Mickey Mouse. Just like I could, except I'm aware that I can't monetize it in any way. Well, new Mickey Mouse.

    My neighbor's exact thought process
  • I live in a safe area (not in the US), I know most of my neighbours at least somewhat but I wouldn't ever confront them directly because I don't know who's on the other side of the door and how they deal with confrontation. It only takes one asshole to put me in the hospital because I dared tell them they were being too loud, even if 99% of my neighbours are sweet and caring.

    What universally beloved videogame you just can't enjoy?
  • Probably the Nautiloid then (the area you wake up in that's all... Bombed and has those pods).

    (Ignore the rest of my comment if you have no interest at all in the game anymore, but read on if you want to give it another chance)

    BG3 has a lot of content and story, but if you've never played a CRPG (like D&D but digital), it's a bit difficult to get into. If you ever consider revisiting the game, there's no shame in picking the easiest setting and/or looking up build guides online to make the combat easier (and save scum).

    There's a lot of very well written story and characters in the game and it's one of those games where your choices actually matter. You can also take your sweet time with almost everything that's happening in the game if you feel overwhelmed (something that new players aren't really told).

    Signed, someone who thought this type of game wasn't her jam at all and is now 140h deep into her first playthrough ❤️

  • You're proposing to waste 10 hours sorting photos when the right tool could probably do it in less than 2 minutes? What?

    And how does taking pictures translate to being addicted to tech?? We've had photography for over 100 years

    Everyday, as an American
  • I'm pretty sure they don't mean "give up on time zones" but "express your timezone in UTC". For example, central Europe is UTC+1. Makes almost no difference in everyday life, only when you tell someone in another zone your time. The idea is to have one common reference point and do the calculation immediately when someone gives you their UTC zone. For example, if you use pacific time and tell me that, it means nothing to me, but if you say "UTC-8" I know exactly what time it is for you.

    Get rid of those angry, masculine mannerisms
  • This reads as casually sexist towards both men and women. Agression? Luscious hair? This isn't really a meme, this is just "man bad, (idealised) woman good", that's neither funny nor relatable
