Sculptus Poe@lemmy.worldto News@lemmy.world•China lashes out at JD Vance for calling Chinese people ‘peasants’31·6 days agoSocial media isn’t a news source. Perhaps forcing them to remove all the ‘algorithms’ might be the answer. Keep the echo chamber effect to a minimum. Excluding people from being able to speak based on the current administration’s definition of blatantly fake disinformation is a bad idea. Once again, look who is now in charge of what is ‘blatantly fake’… They’d be suing the crap out of Lemmy under that law… Europe is all in on censorship, so we can only hope the Nazis don’t take over there again or we’ll be boxed in from every direction.

Sculptus Poe@lemmy.worldto Games@sh.itjust.works•Switch 2 Joy-Con Will Not Feature Hall Effect SticksEnglish1·6 days agoWell… To be fair, I have a switch for me and a switch for my wife that we played daily animal crossing on for years besides our other games and never had a tracking issue, or any other issue, on either one, so it isn’t an inevitable failure. But it does give me anxiety expecting it to happen at any time.
Yes, my brain was trained on many sources and that was the reply that was generated. Now you are getting the hang of how AI works. Congrats. Take your new knowledge and go do great things in the world.
The word you are thinking of is not ‘art’ it’s ‘skill’. A stick man that takes 3 seconds is art. The person who sketched it is an ‘artist’. A painting a master works on for a decade is art and the guy who made it is an ‘artist’. One takes more skill than the other, but they both get to be called art. Nobody of note is claiming the skills are comparable, but you are trying to gate-keep the terms ‘art’ and ‘artist’ pretty hard-core. The same as the people who claimed photograpy wasn’t art because all the person did was “have an eye for the prompt… I mean shot. And curate a generated image, i mean capture an image on film and pass it off as their ‘art’.”
You’d know.

Don’t give money to begging children. They have handlers in the background who get the money and giving it incentivizes them to force more children into begging.
Don’t bother trying to use logic or the actual definition of art with these AntiAI cultists. “AI art isn’t art.” is more of a religious chant with them than a well thought out position. Their types also declaired photograpy as “not art” back in the day. The NeoLuddites of today don’t remember that and don’t even know that they are aping the same misdefinition of art for the same reasons. But they are. Educating them is sort of an uphill battle as it is with any kind of Luddite.
- I wasn’t wrong but i should have qualified it. There are instances where companies have pirated art, but the majority is stuff you can freely access online. I agree that they shouldn’t have the pirated art that was behind pay walls. What they do with it isn’t the problem there, it is that they have it. I should have said that the pirating of art isn’t fundamental to the process and really probably was due to overzealous people tasked with finding data to train on and who, like most of us, grew up in the Naptster/limewire era.
- That’s not how AI works.
- How is access limited and at the same time you are bullying everyday Joes who are actually using it?
- Delete all software and turn off your computer or be a hypocrite.
- The stuff they use for training is free for any artist to train on.
- You don’t own the definition of art and nobody you will encounter in a post of any sort is even doing it for major profit.
- You don’t own the definition of art.
- AI is for everyone, but is made for the rich to get richer, like literally everything else you see or do online.
People love it when they find something they can bully people with and feel self righteous about it. Especially when they feel like they have a big enough gang to back them up.
Yeah, that is pretty much how it goes. Some nice person shares a piece of AI art they find interesting and the AntiAI bros bully them nonstop and proceed to word vomit their nonsense for the next 3 years all over every site even when it isn’t relevant.

There are probably people there still who just got caught up in “911” sweeps for all we know. Even if they say they’ve moved or transferred all of them.
Sculptus Poe@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Open Source Genetic Database(OpenSNP) shuts down after 14 years to protect user data from misuse by authoritarian governments.English216·14 days agoWell, I’m not sure how I feel about preemptively burning your own books, willingly diving back into the stone age for no good reason. Most of the fears outlined in the article are pure speculation and over-reaction to current events. If data from 23 and Me (the source of most of this data being burned) is really getting out there to be purchased, this hiding of data and data destruction does not even inconvenience bad state actors, it only puts up a big bad-actor sourced pay wall in front of legitimate scientists. This is really a shameful cowardice at best, anti-science either way, and at worst they may be actually selling the data to someone and then deleting the public database behind a big flourish with smoke and mirrors. (Reading back my post to myself I guess I am sure how I feel about preemptively burning your own books. It makes me mad apparently. )

Nah, I just want a regular single android screen with the controls on the flip like it is. I don’t want the controls pushed to the outside. I also need the buttons and screen to be safe if I toss it in my pocket. It is a great form factor really.
