I believe the arrest did happened, but unclear what those two said in the comms, or did in school are before they were bamned. For sure missing details, and try to get readers emotional.

Please allow me to have a little bit of time deep thoughts and organize myself. It might take a while, but I will give you a response.

And the label just reinforced the confirmation bias.
- Comment on China announces plan to label all AI-generated content with watermarks and metadata. 5 weeks ago:
The problem is you can’t make a digital label that hard to circumvent. Much like a signature, you sign something you want to prove it is genuinely from you, but you won’t sign something that’s not from you while not signing things that are, especially in digital format. Digital signature can just be stripped out of the data. Watermarks on images can now patched with the help of inpainting models. Disclaimers in text can just be deleted. The default shouldn’t be “This thing doesn’t have an AI label so it would be written by human.” The label itself it a slippery slope that helps misinformation spread faster and aid building alternate facts. Adding a label won’t help people identify contents generated with ML models, but let them defer the identification to that mere label because it said so, or didn’t.

Then waht AI generated slop without label are to the plain eyes? That label just encourge the laziness of the brain as an “easy filter.” Those slop without label just evelated itself to be somewhat real, becuase the label exist exploiting the laziness.
Before you said some AI slop are clearly identifiable, you can’t rule out everyone can, and every piece are that identifiable. And for those images that looks a little unrealistic, just decrease the resolution to very grainy and hide those details. That will work 9 out of 10. You can’t rule out that 0.1% content that pass sanity check can’t do 99.9% damage.
After all, human are emotional creatures, and sansationism is real. The urge of share something emotional is why misinformation and disinformation are so common these days. People will overlook details when the urge hits.
Somethimes, labeling can do more harm than good.

Think a layer deeper how can it misused to control naratives.
You read some wild allegation, no AI marks (they required to be visible), so must wriiten by someone? Right? What if someone, even the government jumps out as said someone use an illiegal AI to generate the text? The questioning of the matter will suddently from verifying if the allegation happened, to if it is real. The public sentiment will likely overwhelmed by “Is this fakenews?” or “Is the allegation true?” Compound that with trusted entities, discrediting anything become easier.
Give you a real example. Before Covid spread globally there was a Chinese whistleblower, worked in the hospital and get infected. He posted a video online about how bad it was, and quickly got taken down by the government. What if it happened today with the regulation in full force? Government can claim it is AI generated. The whistleblower doesn’t exist. Nor the content is real. 3 days later, they arrested a guy, claiming he spread fakenews using AI. They already have a very efficient way to control naratives, and this piece of garbage just give them an express way.
You though that only a China thing? No, every entities including governments are watching, especially the self-claimed friend of Putin and Xi, and the absolute free speech lover. Don’t think it is too far to reach you yet.

- Comment on Trump tariffs threaten the future of physical video games, analyst warns 1 month ago:
I disagree. DRM breaks “forward compatibility” especially with online auth, and Steam dominates PC game sales. Not to mention some publishers avoid releasing on Steam but on their own platforms. PC gamers lost the ability to resell games long before the console gamers did. Still, I digress.
None of these helps nor proves PC gaming market grows and cause console’s to shrink.
- Comment on Trump tariffs threaten the future of physical video games, analyst warns 1 month ago:
But that game disk you bought 20 years ago won’t contribute to today’s growing PC market. Even then, I don’t think the “it” in the line refers to remasters but “new” or “first party” in the views of the publishers.
I would understand that original as, “But the publishers don’t want you to resell games. They want to have you buy games from their first party sales channel over and over again until the end of time.”
Maybe I misinterpret?
- Comment on Trump tariffs threaten the future of physical video games, analyst warns 1 month ago:
Nope. When was your last time bought physical game disk for your PC? In fact, do your PC still have an ODD? Physical disk mush not be the reason why PC gaming is growing and consoles are strinking. That’s a wrong attribution.

That’s just confirmation bias. The buyer/downloaders don’t get caught is just because there are too many of them and going after the distributor is an easy target.

Fiber has 1 or 2 and is VERY rugged in comparison…you can literally tie a knot in a fiber cable and it’ll still work.
Emm, not with glass fibers. My friend uses it between router and switch, and the one of the fiber breaks. So, traffic can be sent to router but nothing the other way around. He said he didn’t even touch or put significant stress on the cable. Yet, it breaks in a weird way, and hard to troubleshot without proper equipment.
- Comment on Californians Say X Blocked Them From Viewing Amber Alert About Missing 14-Year-Old 3 months ago:
Doesn’t have to, I think. Text is actually quite adequate. Sure, images are great but that’s only for a subset of alerts, like AMBER. You don’t really need images or video for alerts like floods, hurricanes, or even missile incoming alerts. For those you only need an address or coordinates that can point people to the closest shelter. Yeah, not all people are not familiar with the surroundings (like traveling) but in that kind of scenarios every people around you will pool together and get to the same location.

Not even another page should be the primary source. That page should be a secondary for updates. The alert itself should have included all the actionable details.
