  Yeah, I’m not going to defend training AI with copyrighted works… But I’m not going to waste energy siding with anyone who was okay with X. If you stayed in X, you’vr made your own bed. Now don’t cry because the owner is an AI-pandering nazi, we all knew that already.

  Generally in Japan they don’t see much of Elon’s “prowesses”, so I can kinda understand why artists like him might not have caught wind of the Nazi direction the platform has taken until it actually hit them.

  And yes, Ignorantia non excusat, but it’s still something, at least.

    For anyone wondering, “Ignorantia non excusa” is Latin, and it means “I speak Latin, and you don’t. Suck my balls.”

      Quidquid Latine dictum sit altum videtur.

    Japanese here. They do know.

    They choose to ignore.
    Precisely because they sympathize.

      I’m not saying every Japanese person still on there is unaware of that, but the general coverage is MUCH smaller than what you get if you’re in English-speaking spaces.

      I also heavily doubt someone of korean origins like Boichi is a Sanseito supporter, but that’s just my guess.

        Sure. But the other artists in the article are English🌐 users.

        Japan is addicted to their SNS anyways.

  It threatens their bottom line. That’s all that matters.
