I know we don't want to say this but there might be a possibility some of the talent secretly are indeed sexist (wouldn't surprise me in the gaming world) and thus actually prefer to stay at a place that preserves the male dominat

Google search seems to have gotten significantly worse lately (sometimes to the point that it's barely usable). From scams like these (I've seen others) somehow getting a foothold, to a lot of internal "unbiasing" skewin

This has been true since forever though. (It's such a weird point.) Very believable photoshops have been possible since forever, but you generally only believe images that are verified by a trusted source. Even ridiculously fakable thi

This guy has been making money off of this though (through ads and his patreon).

I know the narrative is to be scared of this tech (maybe even push towards legislation of it). But me personally I just find these things amazingly awesome and super cool.

Could you describe your understanding of what that term means to you? I always hear it referenced but it haven't really clicked to me what people mean by mentioning it (reading the articles barely help for me).

This is why I let so many cool eye tracking ideas left on the shelf. I can't imagine many people will be ok with using it - even though there's so many cool use cases - simply because they'll be paranoid. Not sure how to star

I feel bad about upvoting this given that I kind of agree with the tweet that this sort of responds in an inappropriate tone to (if you resonated with the message).

The idea that I've heard people for ten years suggest as 'this brilliant app idea I had', which is finally no longer a technical impossibility.

This makes me wish there was a version of producthunt except where the culture was ok with brutally honest replies (rather than the forced encouragement on producthunt, which is nice and has its place too but you need to hear both voices).

I largely agree. But there are still some fun opportunities around. One are things google would never touch because of PR reasons (e.g. state of the art scalable face identification). Another is just silly out-of-the-box creative uses of AI

There's a difference between building a product using open source and not contributing back, and copying licensed code into your own codebase. One is rude and the other is straight up illegal.

If this really counts as fair use it turns into a giant loophole to steal any IP you want. Just create a website with a github-like TOS, upload some disney copyrighted pictures to it, train a GAN super overfitted on the images, and then cla

Yeah, by the name of it I thought it was going to be some alt version of TSP where you have to go around the world and reach every city on the list while always having sunny days.

Funny that it seems to not have been affected at all by HN's hug of death.

This huge revolt is interesting but I doubt it makes github very scared. They'll just come out with some new version of it which they'll show takes into account licenses (or uses a 10k or something dataset with hand checked licens
