Piracy is a service problem.

Yes but also it is increasingly becoming a price problem

You just gotta let the sink in or something

Carlson gave Putin a platform. I see a trend forming.

Not to be that guy, but how long until the assassination attempts?

Red Sparrow is the better Black Widow movie.

And it is attached to a subscription service that rotates games on a whim.

I don’t entirely agree with you because what you are saying is basically stop here. Here sucks. Hard. The window shifted. We need to shift left a bit imo. That includes taxing rich more and spending it in house not abroad. Military doesn’t count. They don’t need the extra money. And yes, authoritarian tendencies are bad. They are just made worst by a strong loyal military. How long before they remove the clause about not following orders that are illegal?

Front + trunk

This isn’t the first EV to do this. It’s not even the first Tesla to do it.

I don’t think OP is asking for merch of that Lemmy. The platform Lemmy has a mascot, just like Reddit. They are not the same thing. I understand people not knowing who Mr Kilmster but doesn’t everyone here know who the mascot is? With that said I wouldn’t mind some stickers or something.

Maybe instance owners/maintainers can fire up an Etsy shop or something similar to sell stickers and 3D prints relating to whatever instance they run. I’d be okay with something like that. As long as they don’t go full “creator warehouse” where the instance becomes secondary to making sales.

I’ve heard this argument thrown out before but my issue is always that you have a permanently declining user base since you can’t buy more copies. This is a band aid delaying the inevitable. It will not allow a game like this to live forever.

I still have that feature on a few different browsers. Mobile and desktop. What browser are you using that doesn’t?

The FCC and the government at large isn’t to blame for this one. The ISPs collected the governments money to run high speed Internet to the rural parts of this country. Blame your ISP for not using the funds as intended. Maybe also blame the government for not holding them accountable for not delivering.

Creating material that is copyright infridgement is not a desired output

Agreed.

the purpose of guns is to kill (when used).

Guns is a term with varied definitions of which not all are intended to kill. There are rubber bullets, air soft, small caliber, and even paint ball guns. These MAY be lethal but were made with other goals in mind.

Nvidia on the other hand made GPUs for applications that revolve around video, the G literally stands for graphics. Some people found out that they are also efficient at other tasks so Nvidia made a new line of products for that workload because it was more lucrative. Gamers usually only buy 1 graphics card per machine, a few years ago some would even buy up to 3. In contrast, AI researchers/architects/programmers buy as many as they can afford and constantly buy more. This has made Nvidia change their product stack to cater to the more lucrative customer.

AI manufacturers depend on copyrighted material to “train” the AI

With everything I said, these AI creators CHOOSE what to feed into these new tools. They can choose to input things in the public domain or even paid-licensed-content but instead using copyrighted and pirated content is the norm. That is because this is a new field and we are collectively learning where the boundaries are and what is considered acceptable and legal.

Reddit recently signed a deal to license it’s data (user generated content like posts and comments) for use with AI generation. Other companies are using internal data to tailor their AIs to solve field-specific problems. The problem is that AI, just like guns, is a broad term.

the method of creation makes it more likely to infridge.

Nvidia has given us the tools but until we define what is considered acceptable, these kinds of things will be inevitable. I do believe that the authors had their copyrights infringed but they are also going after the wrong people. There have been reports of AI spitting out full books on command, clearly proving that those works were used to train. The authors should be going after the creators of those specific AIs, not Nvidia.

There is a long and bumpy road ahead.

This feels like suing gun manufacturers over murder. They made the tool but they’re not the ones responsible for the crime.

Agreed, I read it as League of Legends

Fines should be paid directly to the workers that had to work under these conditions. They should also be paid in multiples of yearly salary, it’s a trillion dollar company. The company pays more as a consequence and those that suffered get compensation. Maybe also a percentage should go to the agency (not Amazon related) overseeing this kind of thing like the NLRB.

1 year ago we had Will Smith eating spaghetti and a never ending Friends episode. Today we have a company sending $25 million to fraudsters.

You’re on the right track but I think your timeline is off. I’m guessing in a year or 2 AI can make a full Pixar movie.

AI is really good right now and it’s getting better faster than anyone anticipated. This went from hypothetical to reality seemingly overnight. Nobody is ready. The fallout will be huge.

Yes but both are Mike Myers doing the same accent and OP, the one I responded to, is describing living in a swamp.

The hotter it gets the more we use AC.
The more we use AC the hotter it gets.

It’s a vicious cycle.
