That's not correct. The watermark is robust to screenshots, file format changes (saving as jpeg/png) and at least light transformation (cropping, saturation level adjustment, etc).

"Monkeys with typewriters," is in one sense, a uniform sampling of the probability space. A brute-force search, even when using structured proof assistants, take a very long time to find any hard proof, because the possibility spa

Oh, gotcha - if you'll permit me to paraphrase: it's not culture itself that you find evil; but that the powerful tend to warp the culture to protect their own interests.

I think you must be using an unusual definition of culture. As I understand it, culture is, broadly speaking, the shared values and practices of a group of people. The only way to avoid having culture, in the usual sense, is to prevent grou

It sounds like you might be quite lonely recently. It's nice to have an on-demand chatbot that feels like socialization, I get it. But an LLM doesn't "know you," and thinking that it does is one of the first steps toward
