USA | What SCOTUS just did to net neutrality, the right to repair, the environment, and more
  • This is just not true and courts have ruled the opposite of what you're spewing for ages.

    EDIT: To elaborate, you're basically saying Congress needs to micromanage everything. It's absurd. This was settled a loooong time ago. This is a naked power grab by an illegitimate, corrupt institution, nothing more.

  • It's really not.

    Maybe someday you'll do some research into the history of art and music and get some context into how technology has influenced both and the repeating patterns of the reactionary art that tends to get produced by artists you've never heard of when that happens.

    Or maybe you won't!

    Either way, good luck.

  • Well now that's just close minded!

    Go back and read discussions about synthesisers when they first arrived on the scene and you will see much wailing and gnashing of teeth about how synths are not real instruments and etc and so on. Then do the same thing when hip-hop goes mainstream and people say it's not "real" music because the musicians don't perform with "real" instruments, I guess.

    You see where I'm going with this? There's lots of examples like these in music and visual arts and they nearly always stem from ignorance.

    I don't know anything about AI music generation, but visual art can be generated by AI models on local machines with a great amount of fine tuning and depth. Further, people feed their original artwork into the AI and manipulate that, so it's not so cut and dry. This idea that folks just write a sentence and the computer barfs out an image is uninformed.

    Anyways, I'm blabbing. Hope that helps.

  • Many such cases
  • There's also the games trap as MS gobbles up development studios left and right. I'm guessing that's not a coincidence.

    I'm personally not a fan of Steam, but HUGE props to Valve for thinking ahead.

  • As a "creator" myself, I'd like to say to my fellow artists who are anit-AI, get over it. AI artists are artists too. Yes there is bad AI art, but there's bad art in every medium. If done with care and skill, AI art can be completely awesome and if you have an open mind, you might even find some space for it in your work. But even if you don't, have some respect for the AI artists out there who put time and effort into their craft. There's room for everyone.

  • Any way to zoom in on comment pics?

    I can press on main post pics and take a closer look, but comment pictures not only don't zoom in, but if there's a way to open them in a browser for a closer look, I can't find it.

    I'm sure this has been addressed before, but I can't find any information, sorry and thanks you!

    Hell yes!

    This is my original Genesis I bought in like '92(?) with one of my first paychecks from my first job at Chuck E. Cheese's (yes I'm fucking old).

    I thought I sold it years ago but found out it was sitting in one of my mom's closets, so I bought a few cheap carts and hooked it up to a crt I keep around for just such occasions. It still works!

    I am so goddamn happy, I just had to share and I figured you all might appreciate that.
