Well now how am I supposed to enjoy the sensation of someone else’s sweaty hand sliding down the pole to slowly touch mine while they remain oblivious of the entire situation?

I only take on gross work, as per rhyming conventions gross work is your gross worth.

Someone should do something about the holes in the schoolhouse roof.

somehow it is hotter than ambient.

Hot air rises, and you’re in the attic

Just in time for all the searchable information to be completely drowned out by low quality AI content.

Considering last year was six days ago…I agree.

Yes, but at least they aren’t getting any useful data out of it. Jokes on them…

This is why I’ve created a life so tedious and boring that there’s no advantage to spying on me.

I’d say more than that. I don’t think anyone is that close to AGI…yet

A calculator does most of it too, but this is a LLM that can do lots of other things also, which is a big piece of the “general” part of AGI.

Richard Feynman said “You have to keep a dozen of your favorite problems constantly present in your mind, although by and large they will lay in a dormant state. Every time you hear or read a new trick or a new result, test it against each of your twelve problems to see whether it helps. Every once in a while there will be a hit, and people will say, “How did he do it? He must be a genius!”

We are close to a point where a computer that can hold all the problems in its “head” can test all of them against all of the tricks. I don’t know what math problems that starts to solve but I bet a few of them would be applicable to cryptology.

But then again, I have no idea what I’m talking about and just making bold guesses based on close to no information.

A legit ~50% reduction in the government based on a random metric with no thought given to consequence or if the government would even still function.

One might even call it “arbitrary and capricious.”

If ‘anybody’ does anything similar to tracing, copy&pasting or even sampling a fraction of another person’s imagery or written work, that anybody is violating copyright.

Ok, but tracing is literally a part of the human learning process. If you trace a work and sell it as your own that’s bad. If you trace a work to learn about the style and let that influence your future works that is what every artist already does.

The artistic process isn’t copyrighted, only the final result. The exact same standards can apply to AI generated work as already do to anything human generated.

I take it we don’t use the phrase “good writers borrow, great writers steal” in this day and age…

But you know Nestle wouldn’t. To them child slavery is like steroids on steroids.

Without legislation forcing it, why would they bother? They already have enough separation from the crimes to avoid legal repercussions, and they get to sell data with the “this will be used for profitable criminal activity” premium baked into the original sale price.

It’s like expecting Nestle to take any steroids action (weird auto-correct) to prevent child slavery. Why are they going to stir the pot and screw up the nice thing they have going?

It kinda makes sense. All the people who know better already use an ad blocker so they don’t know what it’s really like and all the people who don’t know to use an ad blocker don’t know any better and that’s just what the internet looks like.

refuse traffic to you if you don’t run a complaint browser ( cough…firefox )

Ah, so I’ll need a new extension that fakes my browser to say it’s chrome before I can use adblocker. I think this is a cat and mouse game with no end.
