If you are a moron, ya, it is.
- Comment on Judge backs AI firm over use of copyrighted books 1 day ago:
A lot ofnour laws are indeed obsolete. I think the best solution would be to force copy left licenses on anything using public created data.
But I’ll take the wild west we have now with no walls then any kind of copyright dystopia. Reddit did successfully sell it’s data to Google for 60 million. Right now, you can legally scrape anything you want off reddit, it is an open garden in every sense of the word (even if they dont like it). It’s a lot more legal then using pirated books, but Google still bet 60 million that copyright laws would swing broadly in their favor.
I think it’s very foolhardy to even hint at a pro copyright stance right now. There is a very real chance of AI getting monopolized and this is how they will do it.
- Comment on Judge backs AI firm over use of copyrighted books 1 day ago:
The companies like record studio who already own all the copyrights aren’t going to pay creators for something they already owned.
All the data has already been signed away. People are really optimistic about an industry that has consistently fucked everyone they interact with for money.
- Comment on Judge backs AI firm over use of copyrighted books 1 day ago:
Because of the vast amount of data needed, there will be no competitive viable open source solution if half the data is kept in a walled garden.
This is about open weights vs closed weights.
- Comment on Judge backs AI firm over use of copyrighted books 1 day ago:
Yes precisely.
I don’t see a situation where the actual content creators get paid.
We either get open source ai, or we get closed ai where the big ai companies and copyright companies make banque.
I think people are having huge knee jerk reactions and end up supporting companies like Disney, Universal Music and Google.
- Comment on Judge backs AI firm over use of copyrighted books 1 day ago:
The lawsuit would not have benefitted their fellow authors but their publishing houses and the big ai companies.

It’s been shown again and again that evs require less maintenance.
- Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs 1 day ago:
I can’t find anything on such a tax?
I feel like there has been an uptick in pro oil bots in the past week. Oil is a pretty ugly business too? What is wrong with you people.

You could compromise with a vacation cottage, budget permitting.
- Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs 1 day ago:
We are in the middle of a crisis. You don’t need an other reason.
You can either look ugly in an EV or drive straight towards dystopia in a cool looking ICE vehicle.
What the fuck are these comments?
- Comment on Tesla's European car sales nosedive for fifth month as customers switch to Chinese EVs 1 day ago:
They speak English too
- Comment on Judge backs AI firm over use of copyrighted books 1 day ago:
80% of the book market is owned by 5 publishing houses.
They want to create a monopoly around AI and kill open source. The copyright industry is not our friend. This is a win, not a loss.

There is no link and you should list them anyways. As it stands, this is click bait without the click.

- Comment on American attitudes about AI today mirror poll answers about the rise of the internet in the '90s 1 week ago:
People are being harsh with the downvotes but I get what you mean. I get bored and restless doing nothing productive for long lengths of time.
I’m also guessing you don’t mean a 40 hour grind where all the profit goes to a small group of individuals in your example.
If I was told I could work or study but didn’t have to and it was public profits, I’d probably still end up doing a 20-25 hours a week in something.
- Comment on How Much Energy Does AI Use? The People Who Know Aren’t Saying 1 week ago:
The oil industry must be so giddy to have found a new scape goat out of nowhere.
Datacenters take a lot of energy because they serve a lot of people. The impact can be lessened with a proper grid centered around renewable.
There are actual things that are fucking up the planet, individuals using AI, gaming or having a Google account aren’t the actual issue.

Grown educated adults sometimes anthropomorphize llms, I doubt even a fifth of children will be able to understand that their talking barbie isn’t an actual living entity.

Are you not self aware at all? What do you think the article is about?
- Comment on In this day and age is it possible to create a commune? With majority of vegetables coming from one acre and all put in to get wifi to our subdivision? So the bill is not that high? 1 week ago:
You will need a lot more money, there is more to daily expenses than food and wifi. Also 1 acre is not enough for a sizeable group.
You absolutely can though. I know the preppers forum had one. You see it a lot more in Latin America these days, mostly retired expats and hippies (not trying to be derogatory). I find it’s kind of hard to ask people to put in all that effort though when they don’t get proper land rights. A commune doesnt offer a stable retirement other than trust me. I always imagine tension can run a lot higher than they should in these types of communities.
- Comment on Disney and Universal Sue A.I. Firm for Copyright Infringement 2 weeks ago:
These lawsuits set precedents. The laws will apply to midjourney as much as the open source, but the big players can buy the data.
- Comment on Disney and Universal Sue A.I. Firm for Copyright Infringement 2 weeks ago:
I don’t see the irony. They perceive AI as a loop hole and need to squash it to keep their grip on things. If anybody can just prompt a movie in ten years, their business is dead.
They made it fucked up in their favor, this lawsuit is a continuation of that.

Ya, I’m guessing insurance costs have risen and that definitely comes into play.
- Comment on Disney and Universal Sue A.I. Firm for Copyright Infringement 2 weeks ago:
Disney isn’t fighting for the little guy. They will still agressively use it to cull their own workforce. They want to control who can use it and don’t want to compete against an indie animation scene.
This is corporate AI against open source AI.
- Comment on Scientists discover that feeding AI models 10% 4chan trash actually makes them better behaved 2 weeks ago:
Yup. Sucks for everyone having fun jailbreaking them. It is going to get much harder.
- Comment on Scientists discover that feeding AI models 10% 4chan trash actually makes them better behaved 2 weeks ago:
Those are actually some very good results. Funny situation, if the copyright companies win the AI legislative war, 4chan is going to get twice as much as reddit did for the data at the minimum.
It’s also interesting the model gets worse faster if it has to untrain the toxic data so to speak.
- Comment on Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. 2 weeks ago:
"Artificial intelligence refers to computer systems that can perform complex tasks normally done by human-reasoning, decision making, creating, etc.
There is no single, simple definition of artificial intelligence because AI tools are capable of a wide range of tasks and outputs, but NASA follows the definition of AI found within EO 13960, which references Section 238(g) of the National Defense Authorization Act of 2019.
- Any artificial system that performs tasks under varying and unpredictable circumstances without significant human oversight, or that can learn from experience and improve performance when exposed to data sets. - An artificial system developed in computer software, physical hardware, or other context that solves tasks requiring human-like perception, cognition, planning, learning, communication, or physical action. - An artificial system designed to think or act like a human, including cognitive architectures and neural networks. - A set of techniques, including machine learning that is designed to approximate a cognitive task. - An artificial system designed to act rationally, including an intelligent software agent or embodied robot that achieves goals using perception, planning, reasoning, learning, communicating, decision-making, and acting."
This is from NASA (emphasis mine).
The problem is that you are reading the word intelligence and thinking it means the system itself needs to be intelligent, when it only needs to be doing things that we would normally attribute to intelligence. Computer vision is AI, but a software that detects a car inside a picture and draws a box around it isn’t intelligent. It is still considered AI and has been considered AI for the past two decades.
Now show me your blog post that told you that AI isnt AI because it isn’t thinking.

Dog has a very clear definition, so when you call a sausage in a bun a “Hot Dog”, you are actually a fool.
Smart has a very clear definition, so no, you do not have a “Smart Phone” in your pocket.
Also, that is not the definition of intelligence. But the crux of the issue is that you are making up a definition for AI that suits your needs.

“You” applies to anyone that doesnt understand what AI means. It’s a portmanteau word for a lot of things.
Npcs ARE AI. AI doesnt mean “human level intelligence” and never did. Read the wiki if you need help understanding.
- Comment on Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. 2 weeks ago:
No, it shows how certain people misunderstand the meaning of the word.
You have called npcs in video games “AI” for a decade, yet you were never implying they were somehow intelligent. The whole argument is strangely inconsistent.
