In terms of developing visual works, the difference is that AI is generally trained on images and videos that the companies have no license to. With CGI, it wasn’t like they were just taking a bunch of other people’s art, someone still had to do creative work.
It isn’t so much that they’re putting creatives out of work, but how they’re doing it. These AI models wouldn’t exist without art developed by humans.
Awww, that’s fun. People think we’re going to have an election in 2028.
And many, many more rely on their jobs not only for income, but also for access to healthcare. Something seems wrong here.
Can’t have the uppity peasants upending the status-quo, can we?
It’s like saying an embassy is not US soil. Sure, politically, that might be true, but for all non-political purposes, it very much is within the US.
Nobody asked for this! FFS, can megacorps stop shoving AI into everything. Lucky Charms and scissors will have AI soon enough.
A tragic death does not redeem an evil life.
I think there’s a reason he finally pumped the breaks on that idea. What would one call the act of one state sending their militia into another state against their express refusal in order to enforce laws without being under control of and indeed acting against the state’s elected governor? Man, the words for that activity slip my mind right now.
And remind me why Texans care that much about what’s going on 2000 miles away from them? Ask them if their state tax dollars should be going toward sending their militia outside their state borders to clean up someone else’s mess.
Things are getting bad. I keep hoping things will cool off, but it’s just not the way things are headed, is it?
It doesn’t matter. They can convince their supporters of literally anything. And even if they can’t, they’ve been so successful at demonizing dems that their voters would sooner vote for the devil himself so long as he had on a red tie and an ® next to his name.
My favorite is when the sites just block access to IPs in those states instead of trying to comply with the laws with a message that says “Your state won’t let us do business and we refuse to violate your privacy.” VPNs gonna see a huge spike in purchases, and lots of angry gooners gonna start writing their representatives as their favorites sites drop off one by one.
To quote dear leader who is most definitely implicated and ran his campaign on releasing the Epstein files, “Are we still talking about Epstein!?”
stop acting as the world police
That was actually a point that Trump sort of ran on during the elections. Getting other countries to start taking ownership for their regions and contributing to the costs of intervention, and the US withdrawing from those areas.
But just like everything else the goon says, he only means it when it suits him. His followers do not care if what he says and does are not in agreement.
I’m gonna point out to everyone downvoting that yes, the breed gets a bad wrap (I’ve owned two, sweetest dogs), BUT those surrendered to a rescue might just be the ones that have behavioral issues.
It isn’t a ceasefire until all parties cease fire. -Captain Obvious, 2025
He’s not talking to anyone but his echo chamber there. It doesn’t matter who else sees it so long as his followers do.
Turns out bombing doesn’t dissuade either country. Who could’ve known?
Trump is a boomer after all
Why? Age is relevant when it comes to political representation.
They overwhelm everyone knowing that 80% of this shit is gonna get outlawed or overturned, but that 20% that gets through is gonna be huge for them.
We’re already there, it just looks different than what you describe. Food, shelter, and healthcare all require money in the US. Sure you have some free will, but does it ultimately matter? Are you really gonna go be a homesteader and live off the grid?
You have to work- sell your time, rent your brain and body out to whoever you can find to pay for it. You are unlikely to ever truly own the place you live. Either rent or long term mortgage, someone can come kick you out of your home if you don’t constantly prove your worth. You must pay for your food, even the basics. Without selling a part of your life, you don’t eat. In that case, how much of your life do you really own?
Beyond that, nobody chooses to get sick. Especially not so sick that they can no longer work. But of course, it happens. Are you valuable enough for medical care? Have you sold enough of your life to earn healthcare, even when you can’t work?
Do you, as a human resource, generate enough value that you will continue to be fueled, stored, and maintained?
