I have often wondered how much of someone's actual voice leaks through into their impersonations in a way that can be detected. I just saw an incredible Facebook reel of a voice actor, Shelby Young, saying the same thing in a striking

That too I guess. And it sets a few cookies.

I don't mean to suggest that this particular toy is much use. I just mean you should not give random internet games standardised samples of your voice, for this reason. It's a standardised sample, already correlated to text, clo

Congratulations: you gave someone a standardised sample of your voice they can use in a programmatic scam. Don't do this.

Well, you couldn't, as the licences stand, because they are specifically non-transferrable too, right? In the wording.

It is a notable exception but it is a complicated one; not what it seems. For one thing, Trump will talk to 60 Minutes when it suits him, I suspect. There is no journalist who has criticised him who he hasn't called terrible names and

That truth should answer to power is one of the USA's greatest exports; it strengthened journalistic traditions the world over. If you're happy to see this curtailed in the ways you're expressing, I cannot help you understand

In general, if you harm everyone in an instinctively obvious but factually hard-to-demonstrate way, there aren't any meaningful penalties. The situations in which "we all suffer" are the ones where people get away with it,

I did reply to another comment about my concerns about Diary of a CEO in the context of nutrition advice.

And yet, and yet, I still wouldn't take his diet advice that seriously.

> the fact that his life-long diet caused his cancer and killed him It's not even a fact that it was a life-long diet. It's certainly not a known fact that it caused his cancer. You don't know. Nobody knows.

I don't know if it would or would not. But some cynicism feels warranted by association. And then there's the further research you can do: https://sciencebasedmedicine.org/ketogenic-diets-for-cancer-... I dunno. I

Going to go out on a limb here and say you probably shouldn't get any scientific advice about nutrition -- or really any scientific advice at all -- from anyone on Diary Of A CEO.

Not much evidence that keto fights cancer any better than any other exclusion diet; it might even be worse than meat exclusion diets.

He's not a prime example of anything to do with fruit making things worse. His chosen therapy just as likely had no worsening impact on his cancer; the problem was it had no positive impact either and he put off surgery. He had a rar

This is is sort of like the argument against a blank tape levy or a tape copier tax, which is a reasonable argument in the context of the hardware. But an LLM doesn't just enable direct duplication, it (well its model) contains it. I
