  I thought you were saying ai was able to create that final book with an ending? I guess not.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨George R.R. Martin and other authors sue OpenAI for copyright infringement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Okay, now do a coherent book with themes and plot that carry through out the whole book.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨George R.R. Martin and other authors sue OpenAI for copyright infringement⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not at the moment at least, if ever.

  So I don't remember where but I'd heard about Microsoft wanting to buy Nintendo long time ago. The suits are always spitballing.

  Fuck off. The tech got popular and public got educated on what makes it work.

  I've been wondering this too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Mayim Bialik Declines to Host ‘Celebrity Jeopardy!’ Amid Strikes, Replaced by Ken Jennings⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought Ken Jennings was a cool dude. This doesn't feel like a cool dude move.

  Scabbing or not, it's semantics, but supporting the strike seems right to me. Though like you mentioned there's the rest of the crew to think about. Maybe they need this check.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube Can Read All Text Inside Your Videos and Flag It for Violations⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  And I think google offers to translate text from picture for a while? So why wouldn't they implement this to YouTube? And of course they have to moderate the content if possible.

  Found the next captcha.

  You think recruiting new blood is the biggest hurdle right now?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A generational gap on Wikipedia - 91% of WP admins started editing before 2010⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Hopefully they realize it's not healthy for Wikipedia in long term and make a course correction.

  No idea how they work internally but probably some kind of mentoring program would be in order. There's now way someone relatively new will learn all their quirks that have been developed in the past decade and too many people on the internet expect you to know everything already to be worth a shit to them.

  So that's why Elon Musk made those scientists invent a flamethrower.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Notes on using a single-person Mastodon server⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Do the AI scrapers use FediBuzz or just the same method as FediBuzz? If the latter, couldn't the servers just issue a private API key (or whatever, I'm not that tech savvy) for FediBuzz?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Notes on using a single-person Mastodon server⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Unfortunately, Mastodon is killing FediBuzz in its next 4.2 update.

  Any idea why they're doing this?

  This is an incredibly astute point. Haven't thought about it like that.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨We should stop saying "The customer is always right" because it's not true⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it even widely used anymore?

  Thats what goes for mildly inconvenient these days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Witcher season 4 filming on hold until 2024⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Haven't watched the third season since the second season was awful. They didn't understand what was working in the first season.

  Getting Cavill won't happen and even if it did, that was just one smaller problem compared to the whole show transforming into boring dumb fantasy. Cavill alone can't save the show.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨No Need for Twitter—TikTok Users Can Now Make Text Posts⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Not to mention so obvious joke that it's not even funny. Multiple times in this thread too.

  Like he doesn't actively silence people on his platform lmao.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apple says it will remove services such as FaceTime and iMessage from the UK rather than weaken security if new proposals are made law and acted upon.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  It's their brand. And I'm glad it is. It's something Samsung can't copy (I presume because of the Google backbone) or attack.

  (Written on a Samsung phone btw.)
