Maybe use AI to filter the posts? :)

Totally agree. An analogy would be a physics journal getting flooded with articles about psychology because "ultimately the human brain runs on atoms". Instead, AI deserves its own field, outside (and, in my taste, far away from)

Why is it a problem? Sounds to me like emulation is a very good fit for AI.

"feel like" ?

But no worries, we'll soon get $5,000 from the US government and this will allow us to buy plenty of gas.

Unplug your ethernet cable?

One of the few advantages of "not owning your device". Glad that at least we have that now.

You can now melt polar ice directly with your AI prompts.

> If everything is derivative then it seizes to be meaningful. That's why we tolerate it for humans, and also because we cannot prove it. But yes, if you go too far in this, you will see legal consequences.

Why not? It would be easier to justify than the current war in Iran.

I guess Finland has strong geopolitical security motives here, to create more dependence of the US on them, like in Taiwan.

Do we have a theory yet why people hiccup? Wait, I just see you have a page on it :)

The same happens with humans, in e.g. chain stories, cumulative stories, etc. Not unique to AI.

The problem here is that OAI (and others) pretend or claim that this is uncharted legal territory, where in fact it is very simple. We have a machine that is fed data, and produces new data as a result. If that new data depends (in any way)

Look into court-grade eDiscovery Software. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_discovery Specifically forensic web preservation or web capture tools. PS: If they made it impossible for you to prove that you clicke

btrfs send is useful for sending incremental updates; this is used a LOT for backups; and it saves a lot of time because it does not need to traverse files/directories that were not changed You cannot do this without help from the file

Maybe. By the way, I chose Apple as an example but their software is just about as bad, only slightly better.

Most discoveries did not happen by someone looking in someone else's notebooks without them knowing.

There's something vastly superior over rsync still: "btrfs send" and "btrfs receive" (but require you to have btrfs on source and destination).

Did you read what they said? The question is now if OAI produced something new or just stole the researchers' good ideas.

(Perhaps it shows that Apple engineers are pushed to grind at the boring problems more; therefore maybe it is better to work at Microsoft)

If you document it properly then this basically destroys any legal claim they can make about that checkbox.

They simply find some problems more interesting to solve than others. Just like the rest of us.

Linux is hardly a niche. There are a lot of consumer products that contain Linux in some form or another. Just nobody wants to support it properly.

Wait if the speed of light were different, wouldn't atoms be a different size? And so the entire world would be a different size?

I'm not even buying. If governments think my data is worthless and e.g. don't kill the businessmodel behind data brokers, then why should I respect their copyright laws?

They forgot to mention SaaS, and that everything is a subscription now. Also, automatic updates that are forced on the user. And of course that the internet is breaking down our democracies.

Yeah but just one automatic update away from becoming a horror show.
