While I agree that global warming is a serious issue without a clear future, it seems a little far fetched to attribute that as a factor in the deterioration of hackernews community's cultural standards.

We all stand on the shoulders of giants. Yes, I want artists and other creators to be compensated fairly for any work that they contribute into training datasets, but outside of that there is no moral responsibility AI creators should feel

That's true. Although when embarking on a brand new frontier without any empirical evidence available, one would assume there's ample theoretical evidence to make up for it. In this case both appear to be lacking.

Growing up in Asia, I've heard similar anecdotes about blood types. Yeah it sounds stupid in 2024, but back in the 90s, the bloodtype-personality theory was endorsed by politicians and business leaders. Pseudoscience yields anecdotes.

How does it look if the vision is not a 360 degree circle but rather cone shaped? I wonder if dynamic or mutating perspective "shapes" could also make for a more natural use case as well.

I'd say advancement in mathematics, computer science, and heck, even art is far from "pointless". Why does it feel like goalposts get moved everytime there is a significant progress in AI?
