AI threatens jobs and financial monopolies, and Intellectual property. So the sooner we can move past that BS, the better. The old society will die, but the new one should be awesome! I hope I live to see it.

From what I can see they have a string of several failures including this weeks flop Redfall. Making bad games is a sure way to fail. The only MS game I enjoyed at all was State of Decay 2 and it is still buggy as hell.

Please help me understand how todays Generative AI software is dangerous. Obviously you have the academic fraud and plagiarism to counter, and perhaps a bit of misinformation, but what is the danger of an ai that helps you generate words and graphics. If you still trust anything you read on the internet without researching it you are the problem, not AI. Also, schools have always had plagiarism and issues with people hiring others to write their papers and take their tests. AI just does it better and cheaper. It seems to me they are all panicking over loss of corporate IP (intellectual property) which is also not a real issue. If we had decent copyright and patent law things would not be in copyright limbo forever and we could actually grow as a society. You can't currently copyright AI so your creations are always in the public domain. I understand that and AGI or Artificial general intelligence could grow to be a threat if let out of it's cage, but just don't allow that legally. Sure, someone will do it but then you can just arrest them and destroy their creation.

Tom Hanks will have jobs now until they work him to death at apple studios.

All the Putin Fanboys who think Ukrainians are Nazis must be rather confused with their glorious leader banning their preferred payment method. How are they going to survive Biden's "New World Order" without crypto?

Ratiation! Let's not forget the reluctance to allow a non-government agency the right to test the radiation levels.

It you attack a cop with stones or a knife or even your hands, it is not excessive force for them to shoot you. Why should it be any different for the public?

So when are we going to start regulating birth rates? I know this is seen as racist by many, since the minorities are the main ones reproducing at an alarming rate, with obvious octomom exceptions, but it is about the future of our planet and the survival of our race at this point. Race isn't even a factor.

Funny you bring up custody battles over children.

Can you imagine how nasty those battles are going to get with this sort of law in place?

One of my friends ex-husbands can already get the cops to raid her house every few months if she pisses him off. They have to do it because he says she is hurting the child and they have to check it out.
Now he can ge her declared a sex offender as well. Sure she can do it back, but he can afford the better lawyers and would probably win.
