My point?
What benefit could i have from “caring for another being”? Me, personally? The other being, yes, maybe. But me? I could never care ADEQUATELY for any animal.
Hypothetically, if someone that was very close to you was in a terrible accident at has become paralyzed and no longer capable of taking care of themselves. What benefit do you have in taking care of them. Will you just abandon them? I would hope you are not cold hearted as such. Obviously there is such benefit as companionship with another living creature. Im not judging you for not wanting a pet, i dont have one myself. But you are coming off very cold.

The prompt is the human interaction instructing the machine to produce art in the vision of the prompter.
- Comment on Indie devs have begun adding a no generative AI stamp to their store pages 5 days ago:
And whos to say generative art doesnt receive a lot of thought and intent in producing something worthwhile?
Sure, you could let the machine spit out whatever garbage purely from random inputs, and that is not art as there is zero guidance or intent. But anyone that used generative ai knows you have to guide it to get anything worthwhile out of it. And even then, very likely require manual touchups to correct mistakes.

So, if a machine makes the ‘art’, its not art? So photographs are not art. The hubble telescope,or any space probe for that matter, doesnt produce art.
Art is something that provoke emotions and expression in its observers and not produced naturally. Machines are built by people and require non-random inputs to produce something thefore anything those machines produce is art.

Isnt…that what democracy is? Unless you want to argue the system is rigged to promote only two parties. But thats not a problem if representative democracy. Thats just the frameworkers attempt to stiffle the majority.

Humans are confident statistical black boxes. Art doesnt have to be made by a human to be aspiring.

You really going to make that argument when people still voted for the dump despite having all the information telling them its a terrible idea?

No digital is all or nothing. What you are describing is some digital packets making it through and the algothrim is designed to accept some packet loss. Its more complicated then i make it out, but thats the jist of it.

Modern Tv project fake static when there is no siginal because of fimilarity. OTA broadcasts are all digital, either you get a siginal or you dont.

- Comment on Nintendo Targets YouTube Accounts Showing Emulated Games 4 months ago:
People got way too greedy with Switch emulation
The fact emulators are faster than the real hardware, can you blame them? Also, modding games is vastly easier, and people like mods.
Nintendo is just shooting themselves in the foot by not making these things more accessible. its a service issue. But nintendo prefers to invest in lawyers and not into their engineers.
