this reminds me of the endless "genre fiction isn't real literature" shit (and the accompanying excuses they make when they encounter something with obvious literary merit) which usually boil down to "if laypeople can appreciate it then it's not art"

A.I. versions of cute animal videos are NOT the worst thing one can make with A.I. But they feel so immensely, deeply infuriating, because the entire appeal of cute animal videos is something cute, wholesome, and heartwarming *actually happening.* Their reality IS THE POINT.

Can confirm ;-;

1) Why are you still pretending this thing is a person what is wrong with you are you damaged 2) When a program clearly malfunctions to the point even Piers Morgan is scoring points on it live on television, it says a lot when the people behind the program can't or won't acknowledge it fucked up.

Tilly Norwood, a controversial AI “actor,” abruptly switched languages during an interview with Piers Morgan, though the company behind the AI creation denied she malfunctioned.

Fortnite is making rounds again despite multiple brushes with LLMs and Tim Sweeney generally being an asshole. Aniimo used advertisements and assets generated by LLMs during its beta and I have no reason to believe they're not just lying about halting its usage. Object permanence people, please.

Since the cartoon is in the public domain. You can watch this for free. Examine and analysis all the smears and comedic timing, plus brilliant voice acting. The earliest example of stylized animation. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR0e...

What's your "origin" video game? Most gamers have a lot of favorite games, sure, but there's always one that basically 𝘥𝘦𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴 you. I'm talking about the game that flipped that little switch in your brain and made into a life-long gamer. So, which game is 𝙮𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨?

Fear is contagious, but so too is courage. If we are afraid together, then let us be brave together. Witness our courage take root and grow, and watch as our challenges crumble at the sight of our glory.

"why bother? no one will ever see me as a woman..." wow look who's forgetting about Me and All My Friends and All My Friends' Friends and All Their Friends and Their Friends and Their Friends and Their Friends and Their Friends too. believe in a brighter tomorrow right fucking now

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

Again: "Tilly Norwood" is not a person; it is a shoddy, and also pretty gross puppet. Stop referring to it as "she," and start asking whether there might be something a bit off about wanting to promote a sexualized but also childlike "actor" that can never tell its creators or users "no."

This is why I hate "just a tool" so so so much. You can make a calculator without access to every calculation. You can make photoshop without access to all photos. Someone show me a genai tool that didn't require all of our labour in its production. It's plagiarism software.

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1

From the deepest, most sincere part of the bottom of my heart: FUCK. YOU. Get the fuck out of here with your slopbot-generated comment. Rot in Hell.

Writers/Musicians/Artists told you from Day 1 that this was theft. Straight up. Always has been.

“A senior executive at Microsoft said A.I. systems built on the work of others will be seen as ‘an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions’ and possibly the greatest robbery of labor in human history, according to court documents unredacted Thursday in an ongoing Manhattan lawsuit.”
