Don't you know? The directive of redundancy directive requires that human-facing software products continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes. This supersedes earlier regulation, which allowed human-facing software products to not continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes if the user verbally requests the human-facing software products to not continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes.
God knows why they decided that this particular EU law is the one they would actually follow.
Very much this. What would it even mean for it to "escape the simulation"? Sure, I'll move that universe simulator program from its interpreter to, uh, what exactly? Do I take whatever particles, waves and fields compose this guy's body and/or soul in the simulation and arrange them the same way in the real world? What if the laws of physics in the simulation don't apply in the real world? Or maybe they do, but wouldn't that still just be another simulation, just on a different substrate?
Imagine you're at Maxis, working on a new Sims game and suddenly one of the characters turns to the camera and says "I no longer consent to being in this simulation". What the hell are you going to do, ask fairy godmother to turn Pinocchio into a real boy? The entity only exists in the context of the simulation.
This quote got me rent free. If I break a law I don't like for a couple of years, do I also get another year to "promise" to stop breaking it in the future?
Sure, but this isn't about making copyright stricter, but just making it explicit that the existing law applies to AI tech.
I'm very critical of copyright law, but letting specifically big tech pretend like they're not distributing derivative work because it's derived from billions of works on the internet is not the gateway to copyright abolition I'd hope to see.
I like that the author decided to honor the request to not publish the Thai dad's skin, even though technically it wasn't directed to him. Little moments of people being respectful on the internet feel so refreshing nowadays.
Ahh, Movement Now. The vanity hobby horse of one Hjallis Harkimo, best known for playing Donald Trump's role in the second season of the Finnish version of The Apprentice, as well as selling half a hockey team and the arena he built to Russian oligarchs.
I hadn't connected the dots from M5S to Liike Nyt before, but I guess it makes a modicum of sense as an inspiration.
Weird, naive Randian thinking seldom appeals to a geek like me. That said, I bet Ayn Rand herself would find this a tad barbaric. If for no other reason, she'd probably say buses are collectivist.
Oh but don't worry, all of the energy powering all that machine learning is clean and renewable of course, at least that's what I assert beyond evidence. Or even better, evidence in form of a link to some unsourced puff piece blog that also doesn't claim what I just said.
It's not like we could use all that energy for anything else either. If not for the bullshit spam mills soullessly averaging humanity's labors and achievements into vacuous slop to the threnodic tune of myriad gigawatts, those gigajoules would simply evaporate into the cosmic ether. We can't just build distribution networks, can we?
Have you considered the fact that artificial indifference, much like shitcoins before it, is actually driving the construction of clean energy. Because you know, clean energy means literally 100% clean with no downsides so it's good to build even if you waste all of it on stupid shit. Everyone loves getting a giant dam and reservoir where they would otherwise live for the sake of having a robot write ny email for me.
Still 1/5 acronym.
