Isn’t it the case that every writer has “trained their model” off of the hard work of the authors that came before them? If you’ve borrowed a book from a library you’ve even done so at virtually no cost to yourself. Now... there obviously isn’t a clear 1:1 correlation between how humans refine (train) their art and…

Well... it strikes me as common sense that it probably doesn’t extend to him standing on a soap box shouting political opinions out to dozens of people randomly passing by in a park... but probably does extend to him running a talking-head show (strikingly similar to his FOX show) where he shares his political…

The details matter and we don’t have a lot of them at this point... but from what I’ve read elsewhere it sounds like he wasn’t hit by a bus nor struck down by a completely random brain aneurysm or something (the sort of thing that could conceivably be linked to stress, but far more loosely than something like suicide…

Could he not stand on a soapbox in the park and do the same thing without violating the non-compete?

While the OP probably should have provided some links, a few seconds of Googling will answer all of your questions (including some comments direct from McGinty’s mother). This article is a rare example of these sites showing a bit of tact while the details trickle in.

Imagine how the industry negotiations are going to go once the AI tools really start taking off in these fields. You’ll probably (sooner than you might imagine) have a single art-minor directing tools for every 100 fully trained artists working today. It has to be disheartening for folks that have dedicated their…

“Fox defends its very existence on freedom of speech grounds,” Bryan Freedman, one of Carlson’s attorneys said in a statement last week. “Now they want to take Tucker Carlson’s right to speak freely away from him because he took to social media to share his thoughts on current events.”

Is the title of this article meant to be misleading? It makes her sound more like a soulless lobbyist than a research scientist.

Setting aside the fact that you seem to want to “gatekeep” my ability to be critical on, apparently, any level (rather than actually challenging the points I raised)...

This doesn’t seem surprising to me, but it’s worth noting...

apparently nothing about how the united states takes advantage of video games for propaganda purposes itself.

Peter is the guy who says “No One Dies”. That’s someone who would fight fate itself to save anyone and everyone.

So... do we think it’s more than... like... 7 trolls behind this?

My biggest pet peeve with movie-tv-Superman, as a hero, is that he doesn’t actually deal with difficult choices. If he is presented with two unavoidable bad choices he’ll miraculously pull a third choice out of his butt (or simply reveal some new impossible way of using his powers). The struggle is only ever token. I…

You mean the Jews?

I think it is fair to say that a Luddite is anybody who sees new technology changing their lives and would rather fight the change and delay the inevitable than try to adapt. That can be out of inability, greed, or laziness.

I get that... but those products were ostensibly designed and sold before he took on that massive lease for the neighboring building... which (going by virtually all his videos on it) has proven to be a much more costly investment that, so far as I can tell, hasn’t started producing extra revenue for the company.

I hope…

It’s not about “winning”, it’s about better understanding reality so our arguments and actions have some hope of making sense. I certainly won’t apologize for pointing out that you haven’t actually engaged with my point on any level.

To anyone actually following this exchange, please note the complete absence of content in the two previous replies from daba. This, along with an appeal to imagined realities where humans behave in ways not at all consistent with our actual history, are typical responses from people with rigid far-left socialist…

Claiming, on a tech blog, that you’ve never heard of LTT is the worst humble brag I’ve seen today.
