I’ll go Linux when I don’t need any more windows based software, and there’s been almost 0 progress made in that sector in the last 5 years.

Between games that don’t run on Linux (Apex, CoD, any other shooter) and professional tools such as Lightroom and photoshop, there’s no way to switch to Linux without needing to boot back to windows multiple times per day.

I see how far it’s come and I fucking hate it. It creates nothing, it wholly brings down the quality of art in the world and destroys countless people’s lives. There are no benefits

It’s not assisting you in anything. It’s doing all the work for you

The un-fucking of Windows 8 release

It actually was a pretty useable OS most of the time

An AI does not learn like a human does. Therefore the same laws and principles can’t be applied to computer “learning” as can be to human learning.

They’re fundamentally different uses of the material.

Nope, tracking is still shit. It’s the one major problem with my G2. I use it mostly for Simracing now, so it’s not a problem, but beatsaber was a frustrating experience.

They put laws in place that reflect their desire for control. Is your head so far up your own ass that you think that the people setting those laws actually follow them?

There’s separate laws for the ruling class. They don’t give a flying fuck about “values”, they just want control

Better yet, deepfake over him with someone he’d hate. Changes nothing, enrages him

They learn completely different from an AI model, considering an AI model cannot learn

There’s currently multiple lawsuits in the courts to decide just that.

If they’re scraping the internet to add to a database of training data, I’d consider that obtaining and storing the work.

However since it’s required to use all of the illegally obtained and in-licensed work to create it, it is a copyright violation, just as tracing over something would be. Again, existing copyright law cannot be applied here because this technology works in a vastly different way than a human artist.

A hard line has to be made that will protect artists. I’d prefer it go even farther in protecting individual copyright while weakening overall copyright for corporate owners.

AI does not learn and transform something like a human does. I have no problem with human artists taking inspiration, I do have a problem with art being reduced to a soulless generation that requires stealing real artists work to create something that isn’t original.

The “AI hate train” is people who dislike being replaced by machines, forcing us further into the capitalist machine rather than enabling anyone to have a better life

Considering most models can spit out training data, that’s not a true statement. Training data may not be explicitly saved, but it can be retrieved from these models.

Existing copyright law can’t be applied here because it doesn’t cover something like this.

It 100% should be a copyright infringement for every image generated using the stolen work of others.

It’s not learning

That’s just one of the dumbest things I’ve heard.

Naming has nothing to do with how the tech actually works. Ignorance isn’t an excuse. Neither is stupidity

Computers can’t learn. I’m really tired of seeing this idea paraded around.

You’re clearly showing your ignorance here. Computers do not learn, they create statistical models based on input data.

A human seeing a piece of art and being inspired isn’t comparable to a machine reducing that to 1’s and 0’s and then adjusting weights in a table somewhere. It does not “understand” the concept, nor did it “learn” about a new piece of art.

Enforcement is simple. Any output from a model trained on material that they don’t have copyright for is a violation of copyright against every artist who’s art was used illegally to train the model. If the copyright holders of all the training data are compensated and have opt-in agreed to be used for training then, and only then would the output of the model be able to be used.

Is it a MBP M1? The ones they’ve been handing out at my office are tanks compared to the pre-2017 (modern) MacBooks.

I think that’s also just part of how laptops are made now. How Thin/Light a laptop is can be a major selling point

I use my phone for web browsing and a barely anything more. An iPhone is practical for my use case, if a little expensive. Personally I really dislike the android interface, and that’s enough for me.

That’s it. If other viewers of streamers you watch are watching those streams, it’ll push them to you
