    "Add to all the broken basics, the fact that your data is now locked away in a vault that will absolutely disappear at some point in the not-too-distant future, and it just makes n…

    I don't understand the issue here. The author of the post is mad because people have the choice to not publicly discuss things? Why do they owe the author their conversations? Is t…

    It's the same thing: you're entering input into a system and expecting output. I just summed up your post.

    I did. It's trying to play off randomness as art, hence the generative part, and trying to subtly relate that to AI through use of abstract artists like Pollock. It's also not new.…

    I respectfully disagree. At the end of the day, generative art is the same thing as googling an image to search for the end user, in as your aren't creating anything, but rather, y…

    This is the correct answer. It was taken as an assault on what everyone grew up with and learned their particular trade on (and still may use). It's also a bad comparison on Apple'…

    If social media was ever regulated, it would have to (and should be, IMO) done from the angle of the financial regulation. If social media is compared to a marketplace, then the ma…

    'Gospel' means you don't have evidence for something or can't prove it practically, meaning it relies on story/word of mouth, which is why it's generally associated with religion a…

    It doesn't matter whether a source likes you or not. It matters if what they are reporting is factual and verifiable. If you only go with sources that say nice things about you, th…

    So your argument against their argument is that you don't like their coverage. Ok, thanks for explaining that.

    What is naive about the point? And what is your argument? You don't make one to read. To me, this is the same thing we all lived through in the 90s in America when particular polit…

    India seems to be going after a lot of political opposition opponents these days to its main BJP party: https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/3/31/india-opposition-pr...

    Those aren't factual though, those are one just one side of an opinionated argument. Social media can also be argued to have positive values. IE, I would argue that most kids use s…

    It depends on what the change is. I wouldn't approve states trialing slavery. I don't agree with the social media law as well. It's a cultural tool, so let parents dictate what the…

    Any kind of search can be deemed constitutional if it goes through a warrant process, which is the point of warrants. This story is less about the how the information was taken and…

    Humans/life don't need data. Life survives off of experience and evolutionary pressures. Data is a watered-down/digitized form of experience meant as a replication of that experien…

    Those are tools humans use to created output directly to speed up a process. The equivalent argument for AI would be if the typewriter wrote you a novel based on what you asked it …

    In this case I would say AI is the crocodile, the same as all life is. It's specializing (or becoming specialized) in something, which is prediction, in the same way a human (or an…

    I think that is my overall point though - we created a system (AI) based on how we see one aspect of a particular organ or system (brain, cortex, etc.), and, in this case, labeled …

    I agree with the notion that governments shouldn't be able to coerce communication companies to echo their own positions. However, if they use a built in function of the software (…

    To me, it is one of those things like defining what 'art' is, as in creating a model in our heads around a concept. We take our definitions and then use those to construct models l…

    How does evolutionary instinct factor into the system model? Flight or fight responses, reflexes, etc. 'Thinking' does have consequences in terms of evolutionary survival in some c…

    This isn't any different from the entirety of human history. The people in charge of the books write the books. It's why China does it's best to make the world forget about Tiananm…
