rugged doesn't seem the right word. A rug pull represents the person creating and controlling a thing deciding to reveal it to be a scam and cash in at the expense of the suckers. Things like that tend to be illegal in the analogs you

It's no coincidence that populism is rising. That's the non-violent way out - electing leaders that are willing to change the dynamics a lot.

Task switching sucks. On the other side, I feel like using AI tools can reduce the cognitive overload of doing a single task, which can be nice. If you're able to work with a tool that's fast enough and just focus on a single task

I think you're already getting at the "why", which for many situations you can view it as a leveraged investment. This site shows education as the biggest expenditure, and there's some argument about that resulting in an

There's all that, but you can just look at Uber for the classic model of how a company like this enshittifies, which is: - offer a service well below market rate, gain dependent customers - crank up the price No need to do much of the

While not as bad, MLM style companies share a lot of the same techniques as described in this article. Seems like a lot of them hold people primarily by indoctrination rather than actual force

We're talking about accessible fresh water. If it evaporates and then rains over the ocean then it's lost, or as the article mentions, if it becomes contaminated then it's not longer usable as fresh water

To clarify, I'm not saying AI created stuff can't be art, I'm saying that someone that enters a text prompt is not the creator of the AI's output

People would say: I love when a person does that, it's cool to see someone's inspirations and participate in the process and journey of them developing their artistic talent. And I don't really care to be involved in an AI do

Ok but no one gets away with that type of art at comic cons. Also, people happily buy prints of digital artworks from real creators there. Peoples relationship with art at a convention is very different from the art that gets displayed at m

Makes sense to me, the whole structure of the artist booth is about connecting with the person that made the art. Why would you want to see a booth showing artworks that weren't even created by the person in front of you but by an AI?

I think you should understand the terms as "toxic masculinity" as opposed to "positive masculinity". It's not saying masculinity is toxic. Or if you want, as opposed to "true masculinity" - reframing mascu

The article doesn't use that metric though: > The units are “dollars per area-pixel”: price divided by screen area times the number of pixels So it seems like it factors in the pixel density too

It's dumb, but energy wise, isn't this similar to leaving the TV on for a few minutes even though nobody is watching it? Like, the ratio is not too crazy, it's rather the large resource usages that comes from the aggregate of

The article provide this: "Despite billions spent on safety technology, fatal truck-involved crashes are up ≈40% since 2014" Though I wonder how much that number compares to how much the trucking industry grew in that time. If it

No. Machines cannot do that reliably, it's still in the realm of research. Crochet is much less simplifiable compared to knitting

If you asked someone 300 years ago what an automated dishwashing machine would've looked like, it would be a lot more like a person than the wet cupboard we have now. I'm assuming many tasks will be like that -- it's more of

I'm reminded of the recent article about hospitals owned by private equity. I guess a fair system would allow people to not be locked in to one place so they could leave and move into a better one?
