If you have an argument, spell it out. Machine learning is not human learning. They are not the same. Arguing "because human beings learn" does not lead to the conclusion "therefore training models on an artist's work an

I remember several years back there was what I can only describe as a moral panic about "machine intelligence-driven", "automated" YouTube videos for children. The idea was that there were myriad channels using AI to p

The article is from 2015, so, not this article. Perhaps I have been lucky, but I have seen far more accusations of using AI to generate writing than I have seen of obviously generated writing.

The fallacy is thinking that macine learning is like human learning. It is not the same at all, and yet people continuously conflate the two whenever discussions like this come up. "Because humans learn, there is no problem with AIs be

Sorry, I don't understand. Are you saying that AI is of the same sort of danger as nukes? "The danger of nukes is more obvious than why AI is dangerous." Succinctly stated. This is why people are asking for canonical argumen

As an aside, I'm on mobile and tried to visit the TypeScript playground to play around with this, but weirdly, the default code is an implementation of FizzBuzz! There was not an obvious way to clear it to get a blank editor. Even &quo
