When YouTube does this it means that they tacitly endorse the behaviour of everyone who is currently monetised at the moment. I’m sure it would be easy to find many monetised chann…

Needing a licence to create or possess models is what they’re planning here right? It obviously makes sense for openai and other big companies because it makes it more difficult fo…

I don't really understand the backlash to this term. Is it really so crazy that learning how to use these tools effectively has become a thing?

I don't think it should be censored here but it is a sexist term. It is never used in a positive way. The publishing industry is female dominated. Imagine that during the recent co…

I don’t know why tesla didn’t name autopilot copilot and full self driving autopilot. I guess in reality a copilot is much more sophisticated than an autopilot (because it’s a pers…

Most of the posts here with “dies” in the title are about public figures who have died. If you are used to those and are scanning through the posts it is easy to read “dies” in tha…
