You clearly are trying to fuck me. 🥴

It’s a toss up.

Holy crap that’s wild. So someone was convicted for copying a photographer’s work? That’s really difficult to prove in the US. Artists influence each other all the time.

I agree that techbros copying should be paying for the rights btw.

That’s not how AI works. It isn’t like copying and pasting previous patterns exactly. It is a compressed (kind of representation) of the original. Similar to how our memories work. Imagine the mona lisa, you can probably imagine key features, eyes, nose, hair smile. But you probably don’t remember every detail of the background. Models don’t store the exact original. So it isn’t technically plagiarism.

Now can you argue that it is? Maybe, but a model not trained to specifically recreate the mona lisa is very unlikely to produce a replica of it but it “knows” features of the mona lisa. So it could apply a similar smile or look to another “known” set of faces.

If a painter has seen a photograph and later blindly creates a similar image that isn’t plagiarism, is it? Maybe I am wrong.

After it runs over his dog.

Suddenly all the kids have old flip phones to deposit into the Phone locker.

If only we had invested in renewables we could power all the AI we could ever want…

So just UDP?

He’s just turned on, doc is right.

So the whole thing is just a really effective marketing campaign for a school for identifying scams.

Um, don’t be silly. We can just dig down and blow some nukes to fix it. I saw a documentary from the early 2000s about it.

“Great, based on your schedule you still have 45 minutes to get to the gate… I love you”

What don’t you agree with? He’s been doing exactly what he’s said he wants to do.

When going to a negotiation table you say you want to eat the obscenely rich! Then you negotiate down to just taking their money.

Paperwork is cheaper than that pesky quality healthcare stuff.

Well I mean fire bad…

Are we alone? What is the meaning of life? Is anal cheese art? These are the world’s greatest mysteries.

You never go ass to mouth.

The issue is that ferrari is only as valuable as it is perceived. If the brand is not thought of as being the best, then the product will not sell well (at the price).

I wish there were more teachers like your wife. I also wish I could afford to become a teacher myself, but could never afford the pay cut.

The real problem is that teachers aren’t being paid enough to give a fuck.
