That’s because the Republican Party has devolved so much that the only thing they have left after abandoning their policy ideals in the name of power grabs are bigoted culture wars and, as sad as it is, they’ve found a modicum of success going all in on being horrible human beings.

In the case in question, fair use doesn’t really apply, particularly since it’s not a case of “commentary, criticism, or parody”.

In either case, the photoshop analogy isn’t quite accurate enough. With photoshop, you’re still performing the visual changes yourself which means you have a direct connection to the output.…

The problem is that when you write that prompt, by nature of the AI tools, you aren’t sure of what you get in return. Artists make aesthetic and subjective decisions about the elements in their art from the color to the composition. It’s those subjectively aesthetic decisions that makes it personal art vs something…

“While the AI may use source material to generate new artwork....”
And this is one of the problems, particularly since most of the artists of said source material never gave their permission for the AI to use their art in this manner.

Because anyone still supporting Ted Cruz really is just that stupid?

The No Fly list is getting all the attention but the fact that all that PII for pilots and flight crews was accessible is far more concerning.

AIs don’t create art, though. Art requires a mind that can make subjective and aesthetic choices to elicit some sort of response from the viewer. AIs simply take aspects of other people’s art based on algorithms and throw them together. It’s following a rule set with zero actual understanding of what it’s creating,…

This has nothing to do with the amount of time needed during the process of creation. If you slow the manufacturing of a tv dinner down to how long it took a michelin star chef to make and plate their creation, that doesn’t make the TV dinner any better.

But, what artistic value does something have when it’s generated at the push of a button by a machine?  That’s like claiming a TV dinner spit out by machines in a factory carries the same level of artistic creativity as a finely plated meal by a michelin star rated chef.  AI art isn’t art, it’s a fancier form of…

Avoid Samsung appliances like the plague. Samsung has several class action lawsuits pending over defective fridges and Samsung’s refusal to issue recalls even after receiving thousands of complaints about the same issues which render all or part of the fridges unusable.

It’s sad how confident man-babies are now that they have “wokeness” to blame for everything.

It’s amazing to me how people with blatantly hateful positions seem to keep doubling-down when they finally get called on their BS and have to deal with the consequences of their bigotry instead of stepping back and wondering “am i the asshole here?”

Lol, i don’t think you understand the concept of Terms of Service and platform moderation.  This is why people think people who use “woke” derogatorily aren’t exactly smart.

Intolerance is antithetical to tolerance so demanding tolerance of intolerance is idiotic and really should trigger some self-reflection on your part.

Also, how is hateful ranting in a public forum about a person’s right to exist not hurtful? Do you think cyberbullying isn’t a thing?

This is what’s wrong with a ton of media outlets nowadays, particularly gaming sites. Rather than just report facts to their readers and letting their readers make their own conclusions, they keep telling people what they should think or how they should feel about something, like people aren’t capable of making their…

The problem is that the need for lethal force is arguable in this case. He was armed and he’d already fired his weapons putting others at risk. Would it have been nice if police had another way toensure he was taken into custody instead of resorting to lethal force? of course. Were the police more likely to use lethal…

As a few others have pointed out, this definitely seems like a situation where police firing on a person doesn’t seem overly unreasonable considering how he’d already fired on other people and put people, including children, at risk. Trying to paint every black person who gets shot by the police as an innocent victim…

When you have an entire swath of people whose only regular interactions with people are via anonymous screennames where their entitlement and toxic immaturity go unpunished, this is what you get. It just keeps getting worse because there are hardly any repercussions to their harmful actions. One would hope that this…

Trying to design a game through bugs and calling out an asset that might be construed as overtly racist are worlds apart.  If a QA tester saw this, knew that it could be considered racist, and didn’t bug it, they deserve to be fired, period.

I dunno. On every project i’ve ever worked on, QA has always been under the mandate “if it looks like a bug, bug it” and let the devs decide if it’s actually a bug and if it’s worth fixing if it is. At worst, the dev calls it “not a bug” and people move on with their lives.
