I tried it for a moment, made games stutter like hell, switched back. I know I need to go in and figure it out at some point, but it’s hard to muster the energy when X, for the most part, works fine.

From what I’ve seen, it probably has to do with my Nvidia GPU.

No they aren’t, they are arguing for making copyright even stronger than the system created by Disney, where not even distributing copies of a work lands you falling foul of the rights of property holders.

Charging for those copies in a competing market is definitely against current copyright law, and many the owners of the models are charging for access while some users are selling the results. Obviously this is new territory legally, but an argument can be made that these do not fall under fair use.

“Corporations” are not a monolith on this, what Disney or a publishing house wants is not aligned with what an upstart AI company wants.

Where do their desires differ?

I get my impressions from outside Lemmy as well, mostly sites with a large concentration of artists (ArtStation, Tumblr, DeviantArt) and personal friends who work in the industry. I also moonlight as an artist, though not yet good enough to worry about losing income from it.

Also, what is the unjust system you’re referencing? People aren’t advocating for Disney level copyright protection, but these are living artists with brand new works being collected for training with no say in the matter. Most certainly they are not on the same side as corporations, which are embracing AI art wholeheartedly despite the disputed status of copyright laws surrounding it.

The people “obsessed” with it are, by and large, independent and industry artists who are already struggling financially and most are definitely not making any money from royalties. They very often post their art in public spaces where they are free to view, or in Pateron for a few bucks a month. Certainly the outcry is against all of those public (but still copyrighted) works that were used to train models.

This is maybe the must frustrating argument I’ve seen, there are TONS of artists with disabilities work within their limitations to create art that is utterly unique and representative of their physical and mental struggles and triumphs.

I disagree with the other poster, I’d say your child is an artist making maybe the purest form of art in the world, taking their life experience and putting it to paper. I’d dare to say that letting them type out a random prompt and getting a decent image out of their limited vocabulary would be much less impactful than the most crude stick figure drawing of the two of you together.

What is bourgeoisie about being against AI art?

Do you think art is maybe more about the process of creating and physically manifesting your thoughts and emotions? Like maybe art isn’t just about the end product but the joy of creation?

They are trying their damndest with this and going after IVF, but so far it hasn’t moved the needle too much.

Hospitals and Healthcare related companies (e.g. Insurance) at least are required by HIPAA to meet certain security standards. Whether they actually do or not, well who’s gonna know if we are just really careful about hiding the stickynote with the password on it.

Cursed with multiple accounts to this day for a stupid service they could barely force me to use.

It’s just self-fulfilling prophecy at this point. No one trust Google to keep anything around for more than a couple years so they don’t use it. Then it gets scrapped as a failure and everyone is proven correct.

I’m learning that I’m just enough of a front end dev to make a very ugly site. Navigating all the various CSS and JS frameworks feels like pulling teeth.

At our company, the person who specializes in that is dubbed Software Architect. Every dev is expected to uphold those values to a certain degree.

Nah, no need for this kind of gatekeeping. Anyone who deals with js and its billions of frameworks on a daily basis deserves to be called a developer.

I got one with 10k karma and 133k comment karma. Of course, most of my karma is from talking about cartoons, so I’m not sure that really makes me the kind of “power user” that would spend money on this.

Honestly not being able to move the start bar and being told it won’t be changed because their awful new start menu needs it that way was a dealbreaker. Been running Linux Mint exclusively on my desktop for the past few months and it’s been pretty smooth, even for playing games. Thank goodness for Proton!

I wouldn’t call it lazy necessarily, everyone just has limited time and energy to invest in stuff and probably had no idea of the risks.

I mean, it took a couple months for AI to mostly figure out that hand situation. Video is, I’d assume, a different beast, but I can’t imagine it won’t improve almost as fast.

Surely they’re scared of more people realizing that saving these chats is important. How else will they get away with scummy practices?
