They only would have ‘broken the law’ in this case if they tried to sell it as their own original work, which it isn’t, and that is what the prompt writer in the op is trying to do.

That’s a huge assumption that he was ever there mentally.

It’s perfectly okay to have sympathy for those who have no means of escape.

That’s not who was expressing their desire to stay due to some belief that their deity has a duty to protect them.

Not heartless at all. If anything, they’re respecting the religious freedoms of these suicidal-death-cult members.

It might be valid, but there’s no way McD’s was harmed. Their customers sure got that price fixing damage passed onto them, though.

At the rate these political hacks are going, students won’t be able to parse modern text.

I think the running conspiracy is that the platform is a psyop to get idiots to try doing idiotic things they wouldn’t otherwise get exposed to.

From what I’ve heard, the Chinese version of the app’s recommendations algorithm leans towards educational content instead of topics literally trying to tear at the seams of modern society.

Doesn’t that exceed political donation caps to PACs?

The limit for contributions by individuals and nonmulticandidate PACs to national party committees has risen to $41,300, while the limit for individual and nonmulticandidate PAC contributions to each of the additional national party committee accounts has increased to $123,900 per year.

It doesn’t need to be an animated visual to be distracting or NSFW…

That’s a lot of faith that the ads would be SFW, let alone not distracting.

Chump sucking off a foreign national/wannabe dictator…

Tale as old as time.

I haven’t played the third one co-op yet, unfortunately so I can only assume that it holds up like the second one does.

Nine Parchments - Top down Magic slinging romp. Similar to the Majica series, but with less knowing how to do certain key-press combos.

Orcs Must Die 2 - 3rd person tower defense where you place traps and use spells and weapons to take down foes. Continues the story of the first game, which did not have multiplayer, unfortunately.

Children of Morta - Top down dungeon crawler. Take on the roles of a family trying to hunt down an ancient evil. Like the Belmont’s of Castlevania fame.

Full Metal Furies - Top down action fighter. Fight the Titans as some of the last remaining survivors of Ragnarok. Fun dialing with a good-sized world map to explore.

Astroneer - 3rd person survival crafting on a randomized planet. Cute component designs and a unique air management system. Plays best with a mouse & keyboard.

Deep Rock Galactic - Space Dwarves Corporate mining simulator. You and up to 4 friends drive do into infested planetoids in order to make some Gold. Destructible terrain and shenanigans.

While, yes it is not copy and paste in the literal sense, it does still have the capacity to outright copy the style of an artist’s work that was used to train it.

If teaching another artist’s work is already frowned upon when trying to pass the trace off as one’s own work, then there’s little difference when a computer does it more convincingly.

Maybe a bit off tangent here, since I’m not even sure if this is strictly possible, but if a generative system was only trained off of, say, only Picasso’s work, would you be able to pass the outputs off as Picasso pieces? Or would they be considered the work of the person writing a prompt or built the AI? What if the artist wasn’t Picasso but someone still alive, would they get a cut of the profits?

The art isn’t being made btw so much as being copy and pasted in a way that might convince you it was new.

Since the AI cannot create a new style or genre on its own, without source material that already exists to train it, and that source material is often scraped up off of databases, often against the will and intent of the original creators, it is seen as theft.

Especially if the artists were in no way compensated.

the government aims to ensure that financial advisers “give advice that’s prudent, that’s loyal, that doesn’t invite overcharges, and doesn’t involve lying to people,” said Timothy D. Hauser, the deputy assistant secretary for program operations of the Employee Benefits Security Administration, part of the Labor Department.

FACC — argued that the rules would be “potentially devastating for the insurance industry

That tracks…

Not just taking away power, this will literally get people killed.

Most of those regulations that are hurting his theoretical efficiency were written in blood.

Fractally weird. No matter how or where you look at them they are just as weird as any other bit of them.

My trackball mice have had parts deteriorate at around the two year mark before. After this one breaks, usually the scrollwheel or the left click key, I’m switching to an opensource trackball system.

Especially when one of the loudest religions actively want to doom the world so that their sky daddy can show everyone else how right they were this whole time…
