You know, I was gonna say you’re wrong here, but I think you’re right. Because “unbearable” feels like a potentially worse connotation than “impossible,” the phrase would be clearer if it was “Even a 54 second interview would be unbearable.”

Looking forward to your other reviews making broad generalizations based on not even watching the show and comparing what you didn’t see to your own personal experience only. So insightful.

So you believe that in World War II, we should have simply let the Nazis slaughter whoever they wanted? You’re arguing to allow them to “finish the job,” and that’s abhorrent. Your selective reading of King is an utter lie, and you know it. And you have not a single practical replacement for violence in the face of…

What a naive take. Violence is absolutely necessary in the face of attempted genocide. Dr. King did not espouse absolute pacifism–he only argued for the efficacy of non-violence in *social movements*. The X-Men’s struggle is not primarily for civil rights, but against the attempted genocide of mutants.

It’s not just the best screen adaptation of X-Men - it’s easily one of the top five Marvel adaptations ever. What a joy to have a huge, faceless corporation do something right every now and then.

Self-driving cars, VR and AR, and chatbots have all made big technical strides in the last few years. Let’s not confuse “market dominance” with technical progress. They’re two very separate issues. “Breakthroughs” are rarely how tech improves.

Give me an example other than cold fusion, because I don’t think that applies very well here. There isn’t a single cold fusion facility producing consumer electricity, and there never has been. And the industry consensus is not now and never has been that it’s “ten years away.” There are dozens or hundreds of…

Artists can ask for whatever they want - most legal analyses of the cases that I’ve seen suggest that the tech giants are likely to prevail on the merits of claiming fair use because the output is substantially transformative. Even if the models were just creating collages (they’re doing a lot more than that), collage…

Why do people think the Prius isn’t fun to drive? I just got a 2014 model, and if you put it in “Power” mode, it accelerates faster than any ICE car I’ve ever driven. I’m sure it’s not as great as an expensive sports car, but it’s got a LOT more acceleration than your average sedan.

“It’s about the actual emotional impact of the piece- the artisitic quality”

You’re misunderstanding how they work if you think they “draw from a database” continuously. Once a diffusion model is trained, it no longer needs the original material to function - only the connections created by processing that material. You may be able to have material removed from the training sets of *future*…

Absolutely sooner. Look at the exponential improvement since Dall-E Mini launched to now. If things continue to improve at the same insane pace, in a year we’ll no longer to be able to detect the hand of AI in an image with the naked eye, even when zooming in and scrutinizing it. Our only hope will be that…

Such a boring take.

It’s “okay” for you to say anything you want. It’s okay to be wrong, or even dead wrong as you are here.

How does a couple hundred people changing towers more rapidly than normal “overload the network”? Your theory is growing thinner with every post. Just take the L on this bizarre hypothetical you’ve become strangely afraid of. Nobody’s been putting their phones on airplane mode for years at this point, and this rural…

Ehhh... I love him, but Christopher Walken was easily the worst part of Dune 2. Absolutely phoning it in.

If this isn’t a bit, I think you misread that - by “time jump” they mean “we flash forward to a future time,” not “Rue is a time travelling detective.”

That’s just another person speculating without any data.

What on earth are you even responding to? This is an article about a dog.
