  With the current US government, there’s far more roadblocks to running a company ethically than turning it to absolute shit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨why do transphobes mention pedophiles/compare them to pedophiles when most trans people (as do most people) hate pedophiles?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  As you said, most people hate pedophiles. So by constantly labeling trans people as pedophiles, transphobes are trying to get most people to hate us.

  Remember when Microsoft said Windows 10 would be the last version of Windows?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla, Warner Bros sued for using AI ripoff of iconic Blade Runner imagery, despite the producers having previously rejected any association between their iconic sci-fi movie and Musk or his companies⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t think making art in the style of a copyrighted piece of work is wrong. Like writing a fanfic in an existing world (Harry Potter, LOTR, Blade Runner, etc.) isn’t copyright infringement, it’s covered by fair use. I think Alcon are suing the wrong person. A better case for copyright infringement is the AI company who trained their AI using copyrighted material that they almost certainly did not have permission to use.

  I think what they’re trying to say is that if asking AI to make something in the style of Blade Runner is copyright infringement, that opens the door to asking an artist to make something in the style of Blade Runner being copyright infringement. I don’t know how I personally feel about that, but it’s at least how I interpreted the comment.

  They lost me when they refused to do anything about Kiwi Farms. Protecting privacy is one thing, facilitating hate crimes is another.

  AI as a technology is fascinating and can be extremely useful, especially in places like the medical field. AI as a product in its current state is nothing more than dystopian plagiarism.
