Don’t known don’t really care. A child is dead this isnt a “won’t somebody please think of the children” thing, multiple people have had complete mental breakdowns and will never be the same.

Idk I think if you make something that destroys mental health it becomes your responsibility to fix it.

I think if you are working for the federal government and not actively sabotaging them you are at least complicit.

I think the AI bubble is really close to poping. If they can’t make a profit on it in the next 2 years (maybe sooner with how badly the economy is about to start doing) VC money will dry up and then they will have to up prices dramatically.

There’s a lot of factors I could get into but it seems like they are going to have to start pricing AI use at the very least cost soon.

Based on everything I’ve heard I think your power is genuinely too expensive for it to be worth while. In the US and china power is much cheaper.

They can even scrape likes/dislikes and make profiles for people that don’t comment.

Fucking source‽ Yes companies do scummy shit with IP all the time but no companies are not reprinting books without paying authors unless there is some crazy contract bullshit.

So what should be done so that authors and inventors are fairly compensated under our current economic system? I am not in support of capitalism to be clear but we are stuck with it for the foreseeable future and I don’t want small authors to have large companies just steal their books and reprint them.

IP is important in the current capitalist world. In an ideal world I absolutely think IP would be abolished but without it there would be no way for a small company to make something and not have it stolen out from under them by a mega corp.

I do not think current IP law is perfect or even very good now but under capitalism it is something that is necessary. Even in open source it matters because without it all the licenses in the world would not matter.

So more energy use for what they people that are into AI are calling a worse model. Is someone going to get fired for this?

for refrence Walmart has had me in the “applied” stage of resumee review on their shitty website for nearly a month. I don’t think people quite get how bad it is. I had to wait for a spot to open up to interview at McDonalds that I’m still waiting for because the closest one was two weeks out.

Do you realize how hostile the outside is to non-adults? Like genuinely I’ve seen people call the cops because there was a kid riding a bike unsuprivized in a suburban neighborhood. Malls are dying and there’s nothing to replace them as a meeting spot.

This isn’t even getting into the seeming requirement to spend what feels like 100$ to see a movie now or any of the other stereotypical hang outs. Or how many people have parents that simply do not have time to drive them places.

I’m genuinely interested in your response because I genuinely think the world has become actively hostile to kids being kids.

What is it with liberals literally only seeing bug problems when it’s in other countries.

God this made me remember my parents getting me an iPod touch and a 50$ gift card. I listened to an owl city album for days on repeat lmao.

You could just be young. By the time I was old enough to start pirating Spotify had already existed for years and it’s just significantly easier than getting into a tracker. My wife has yearly playlists she’s been making since she was a teen and doesn’t want to loose those.
