Reading this, I really wonder why the dev hasn't forseen this outcome. It was already obvious in March that OpenAI will censor all sorts of content. Building a sexually charged bussiness on the OpenAI API was always a dead end for th

I learnt to play 3 (serious) instruments during my lifetime. Guitar, traverse flute and piano. While I dont play any of them actively today, I would still miss the overall skills I gained from learning them. Motor coordination, memory, j

Looking at EDM, the sheer amount of bedroom musicians capable of producing that poped up since the 90s is part of the reason why it has become so hard to make any money from your art. There is simply too much music out there to actually be

Replace "Transforming" with "Disrupting" and the story feels more real. Frankly, I love music. That is why I'd prefer if Google did not mingle in this bussiness. Creatives already have a hard time making any sort

I was deep into rave culture at that age. Lets just say I know the "deal". However, I always knew I would never sell, because, surprise, I knew the penalty was not worth it. So, I actually know what I am talking about here, and

I am a touch typist since 30 years. I don't feel like I am thinking while I am typing. Typing happens automatically. Much like it works for musicians with sufficient practice. After a certain point, things become automatic, and you

I don't think I am missing the point. As you mentioned, the setting of TNG is radically different from today. And I submit that in such a different setting, it is orders of magnitudes easier to trust, because (most) people from the 2

Frankly, I dont care if they rely on a car or not. All I care is how much they endanger other drivers and pedestrians. And I dont want to wait for self-driving tech for this problem to be solved either. I am a blind pedestrian. I cant j

I suspect driverless cars get more perceived attention because switching cars over will actually make a lot more money then building up a public transport system. Its a bit like with washing machines or TV sets. Selling to each and every
