>But if I took 100 paintings from a single artist and combined them all into new works of art, that would probably be copyright infringement in my view, and is what seems to be happening here. If I look at 100 paintings by Pablo Picasso

Meh. If I want an oil painting to decorate my new apartment, I'm not going to be asking an AI to give me one anytime soon

It's satire that's making fun of transgenderism. It would only work as satire that isn't intentionally misgendering if it was mocking conservatism's refusal to accept someone's gender. Which is absolutely not what t

Yeah this is the thing I don't get. If you don't like the terms, then don't agree to them. If you agree to them, then you lose all right to complain when they hold you to your word in my opinion

I agree with your first sentence but completely disagree with the second one

Anecdotally, I find the discussions here to be far less aggressively stress inducing and rude than the rest of the web

Then they shouldn't have agreed to not joke about that stuff in the first place

The article you're commenting on specifically mentions that this all started because of someone asking Microsoft to do this on Twitter

You probably got downvoted because the war itself happened in spite of diplomacy: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian%E2%80%93Ukrainian_Frie...

Fair, I didn't look specifically at Australia on my first read through in retrospect. Maybe I should reconsider my living situation lol

I think his comment was about appeasing psychopathic bullies because "give him what he wants, he won't go any further after that!" didn't work, not that there were nukes back then

They literally had a treaty agreeing not to build nukes if Russia doesn't invade. Diplomacy FAILED to stop the war

A good chunk of the population would deny that it even happened. I remember reading a blog post earlier this year where someone IN KYIV thought that the war was fake since he didn't see any fighting on the streets. Even had a bunch of

If the article is accurate, it doesn't sound like your odds are better there, just that your misery will last longer

I don't inherently disagree, but "if you turn your back for a second, then out come the wolves" sounds like a sign of a toxic culture

Idk about dalle but with stable diffusion if you type in "Mona Lisa" or "Van Gogh" you have to fight pretty hard with your prompt to NOT get identical reproductions of those respective works

Probably not, but I can imagine something similar to hijacking a popular library and publishing a new version that opens a certain port and waits for instructions. All a malicious actor needs to do is increase the amount of exposed servers

Everyone has teeth. Not everyone has had direct exposure to nuclear explosions.

After reading the article, you're overstating the "dangerous" part here. It's far from a fear mongering blog. They mention it's potential for misuse - no need to be saddened by that

The "Beast" was Nero. Like that was actually his nickname. It adds up to 666 in gematria, which John of Patmos was using. The image of the beast was literally his image on Roman coins, which was the only legal currency, so they ne

I haven't downloaded the database myself, but I imagine if you did it wouldn't be too hard to get that data. Looks like you can get the torrent here https://laion.ai/blog/laion-400-open-dataset/

At worst you're just back to a regular VR display in that case, so unless current non-eye-tracking headsets are discriminatory, no. Plus I would think it would still be able to use your non-lazy eye

Yes, that's a/the Cold War. I don't think anyone would deny that the Cold War is continuing, it's just that no one has ever called it WW III, since the terms "WW I" & "WW II" have always explicitl

His point wasn't about ANY authority figure though. It was about ones with directly relevant expertise. In his example, firefights are authorities... In regards to smoke and fire. Yeah I'm gonna trust what they have to say, both o
