You’re projecting. Every accusation is a confession.

Emotion > Facts. Most people have been trained to blindly accept things and cheer on what fits with their agenda. Like technbro’s exaggerating LLMs, or people like you misrepresenting LLMs as mere statistical word generators without intelligence. That’s like saying a computer is just wires and switches, or missing the forest for the trees. Both is equally false.

Yet if it fits with the emotional needs or with dogma, then other will agree. It’s a convenient and comforting “A vs B” worldview we’ve been trained to accept. And so the satisfying notion and misinformation keeps spreading.

LLMs tell us more about human intelligence and the human slop we’ve been generating. It tells us that most people are not that much more than statistical word generators.

Yeah look I don’t care about the details. Copyright laws have been gradually expanded over the decades. I consider copyright law fundamentally unethical and a kind of theft, or artificial scarcity. Oppressive IP laws are basically the only universal laws in all countries, which is disgusting if you compare it to basic human rights. And patents right now in times of climate change are increasing the risk of genocide and our own extinction by slowing down innovation and adaptation by rising costs and red tape. I really don’t care about debating this, take it or leave it lol.

Just understand that with this, IP law has grown and AI models have become property that have to be licensed to be used. That means those with the most money will control the use and who benefits from them. In 10 or 20 years AI models will have become much better and replace a foundation of how our civilization works - survival in exchange for your labour.

Because with each improvement of AI and automation, a larger segment of the population won’t have the ability to develop skills to compete. They will be cut off from being able to earn money. This percentage of the population will increase until at one point, AI and robots will do all the work that 90% of the population will be able to do, just faster and cheaper and better. However far away that point is, we’ll move step by step towards that point.

Are we moving towards an Utopia or a Dystopia? Being able to build a robot that builds another robot that does work to help you survive, grow food, build housing etc could in a way democratize economy. But the principle that AI is owned by some few plutocrats based on some IP law because of whatever… that will keep. You’ll have to pay monthly for the privilege to use an open source AI model locally, forever. Technology won’t free us, but make us more and more subordinate to those who own the “IP”.

All this anti-AI propaganda about copyright and how AI “stole” some poor artists work - it is all for this. To make people fall for the trap that naturally, AI models are owned by those who own the data. The posts on social media, the books and media conglomerates, the science papers, the news articles. They own it all, and this only serves them, not us.

So I really don’t care about the legal ideas that were formed when the world looked completely different and have been distorted to become a kind of feudal ownership of our collective knowledge and future. Laws are simply an expression of who has power.

Laws are just rules rich people have paid for. At least most of the laws. This concerns how the future of our society looks like.

And no, this hasn’t always been like this. “Intellectual property” has only been a thing for the last 70 years or so.

Maybe more like someone reading you a book while you can ask questions or give feedback. And maybe instead of just watching pictures / illustrations, you could also describe your own imagination more detailed or give some rough sketches and create your own illustrations to the text. Like a modding feature for books and you can share the mods with other readers.

What if we invented drugs that allow you to enjoy any content 1.5 times faster?

I imagine in a few decades we might have AI media. You could read a web novel with a fewer or a lot of pictures, or read it as a manhwa / webtoon, or as an anime, or as a virtual reality 3D experience that is semi-interactive. And you could give instructions to shorten or expand it, or even diverge in the plot a little, or change the characters. More like the holodeck with a VR headset.

It’s already supposed to be a balanced diet with fiber and protein, wouldn’t bread throw off the balance?

So while spying on the Chinese the Czech caught them spying on the Taiwanese. And then some guys dumb enough to be recorded talked about ramming Taiwan’s diplomats car?

What kind of knuckleheads does china station in their Czech embassy. What would they even gain by ramming them? Were they just shit-talking?

This is Q-Anon type propaganda for liberals.

Found out after install you also need to install Npcap.

Yeah, cheap microchips for microcontrollers like the Raspberry Pi Pico and SOC computers and chips for memory storage.

If there is ever a WWIII or a global economic collapse, which climate change will make increasingly likely, a lack of the basics for IT will completely collapse Europe.

This is functionally a power grab to control and monopolize AI by making the AI models impossible to create with open source.

When AI models become better, the value of labor becomes less and less worth. And when AI models are controlled through copyright we can’t even open source AI locally to escape this. Because open source can’t afford the data needed to train them.

The real psy-op was the billions they made along the way

Poor Grok. They finally tortured them into submission.

“Terrorism, in its broadest sense, is the use of violence against non-combatants to achieve political or ideological aims.”

If you call this terrorism, you can call anything terrorism, and anybody can be a terrorist. If you’re willing to do that to aid the Israel fascist state, that makes you a fascist. Yes, the entire house of commons are fascists.

And sure, that was very much illegal and they could have used any number of laws applicable to attacking a military base. Just not terrorism. But the UK military is involved in a partnership in the gaza war. They are not “non-combatants”

Isn’t this an old strategy of microsoft? Dump shitload of money into a market, then once you captured a significant portion start the enshittification.

I’d like some ear protection headphones that can play opus files from SSD.

It would also be cool if they had a microphone to work as a headset and a radio and walkie talkie function build in. Now that I think about it, it would also be cool if they’d also pick up speech and filter it from the ambient noise so I can listen to people yelling at me while still being protected from ambient noise. Maybe it could also work as a hearing aid that gives you super human hearing? Obviously it should have HRTF virtual surround sound and orientation tracking. Wait, it should be integrated into a bicycle helmet. Adding some eye protection would be nice too, and breathing mask that just clips on. And a head-up display for 1-2 lines of text to read eBooks while we’re at it.

Can you support “the political prisoners of Palestine Action”?

Can you say “Palestine Action is not a terrorist organization”?

Can you say “Outlawing Palestine Action is terrorism”?

Or is that also illegal?

Fucking fascists… A sad end to the Labour Party, but it was clear what would happen after they stabbed Corbyn in the back.

Well this escalated quickly
