Thanks to everyone that has replied, all fair points. When you use (read, view, listen to…) copyrighted material you’re subject to the licensing rules, no matter if it’s free (as in beer) or not.

This means that quoting more than what’s considered fair use is a violation of the license, for instance. In practice a human would not be able to quote exactly a 1000 words document just on the first read but “AI” can, thus infringing one of the licensing clauses.

Some licensing on copyrighted material is also explicitly forbidding to use the full content by automated systems (once they were web crawlers for search engines)

Basically all these possibilities or actual licensing infringements would require a negotiation between the involved parties.

This process is akin to how humans learn by reading widely and absorbing styles and techniques, rather than memorizing and reproducing exact passages.

Many people quote this part saying that this is not the case and this is the main reason why the argument is not valid.

Let’s take a step back and not put in discussion how current “AI” learns vs how human learn.

The key point for me here is that humans DO PAY (or at least are expected to…) to use and learn from copyrighted material. So if we’re equating “AI” method of learning with humans’, both should be subject to the the same rules and regulations. Meaning that “AI” should pay for using copyrighted material.

HaikuOS, simply FANTASTIC! Out of curiosity are you using it as a daily driver? I’ve tried early beta (2010 or so) and it was super fast but not enough to use it every day…

Open your wallet /s

I found Xenoblade absolutely impressive under all aspects. Zelda is fantastic, FF EX, Dragonquest… all with their distinctive art style and mechanics

But what really stuns me are the emulation capabilities. You can play all Nintendo portable games at ease + a ton of home console of the '90s and before and all in your pocket

New 3DS XL. Great screen(s), great battery, great emulation capability and great native games.

I love your reviews, thanks for your great work!

Correct, that’s when you try to hack a device. It’s purely random and chances are based on your skills, augments etc.

Are you referring to the device hacking? If that’s the case it’s purely random for what I recall. High hacking skills means higher chances to get a good node. The only part I was paying attention to were which node to unlock first. I chose them so that if they came out as bad I didn’t block two or more lines from potential success

Retroarch, hands down :) Any core will do fairly well, S22 is quite capable. I love the retro-achievements functionality, ir adds more depths to some games
