I agree, this is why I consider myself a ‘patient gamer’… I don’t want to reward releasing half-done games, or trickling out DLC that should have been included in the original release.

I had to re-evaluate my stance on this when Baldur’s Gate 3 was released because I really wanted to play it, but was going to wait until it went on sale. Then the reviews starting coming in saying that it was a full game, no major issues, and no planned DLC. I immediately purchased it because **THAT **is the behavior I want to reward, and I’m very glad that I did.

It is, and supposedly tastes like pork.

There had been a plan in the early 1900s to introduce them to the Louisiana swamps to be raised for meat. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Hippo_bill

Noooooo!

Time to buy up stock in Philip Morris!

We’re getting to the point where even a frequency jammer might not stop an AI piloted drone. Just teach the drone what a ‘rally’ looks like and where the target typically stands, and then launch it. No radio or GPS signals required.

I agree, not necessarily that I like hearing about other people’s dreams, but that I think people should be more willing to actively listen when someone talks about their dreams.

I don’t necessarily like hearing other people’s dreams, but I do like talking about my own dreams, so I will listen. While dreams aren’t real, what happens in dreams can effect people because it is still something they experienced, and talking about stressful situations is a great way to let go of any negative feelings associated with the experience.

But even then, if every pixel gets marked as ‘created by AI’, it would still be trivial to take real CSAM and run it through an image-to-image generator with denoising turned down to 0.05 and suddenly you have real CSAM that has been marked as ‘legal’ since it is technically AI generated.

Also, keep in mind that there are several open source projects out there where anyone who knows what they are doing could just strip out any protections that might be put in place.

The US could easily match what China’s doing

Not with the unions in the US they can’t. Part of the reason China is able to produce cheap cars is because they have cheap labor.

I feel like this isn’t 100% accurate, so I fixed it.

God, I read that in Casey Kasem’s voice.

The problem is that you have governments like the Taliban in Afghanistan, pre-9/11, destroying ancient statues, trying to erase the history they don’t agree with.

Instead of returning stolen antiquities, countries that are currently in possession of them should be required to send an equivalent value of their own country’s treasure to be displayed in the victim country’s museums.

Imagine having to go to Egypt to see the crown jewels of England.

Oh look there, a link to twitter… like there’s any way you can trust anything posted to that platform.

Thus, ACAB.
