"To clarify, when you describe LLM output as copyrightable, are you implying the copyright holder is the LLM provider, or the owners of the original training data?"

To clarify, nobody knows yet! But I do mean the owners of the original data. It's not actually been decided whether their copyright can apply to code produced by LLM which was trained on it, and until it has been, at the VERY MINIMUM the AI code should be required to be labeled. Not doing so is willfully pretending this is not an unsettled legal issue. Linus is gambling for NOTHING and the stake is the future of Linux!

Uncontrolled immigration of people with demented religious views is a disaster for many countries

Yes, it destroyed the native nations in the places we now call the Americas.

The puritans' religious views were so demented they kicked them the fuck out of Europe. Too bad they made it here.

Columbus' allegedly religious views on slavery were so demented he was stripped of all honors when his sponsors found out what he'd been doing.

Our nation stole all of the land we live on, which is factual because it wasn't all just conquered — there were treaties, and we broke literally all of those treaties.

The uncontrolled immigrants who ruined everything were white people. Even fucking Russia is an example.

If the reactor was already entering the decommissioning phase, we must assume that it was in bad shape.

I don't think that's true of all of the reactors they're looking at, some of them were just unprofitable to run before. But some of them will have deteriorated while not in use due to seismic activity etc since a lot of reactors are sited really badly.

But the corollary is, if they were unprofitable to operate before, this AI shit must be really, really expensive...

if you were building out that much gas, why do you need all that wind and transmission?

You need the wind so you can use less gas. You need the transmission so you can use the wind. Burning fossil fuels is bad in many ways so doing as little of it as possible makes sense. I tried to use small words for you there.

Comment Re:UBI is worthless by itself (Score 1) 133

I don't know of anyone who thinks the UBI would replace universal healthcare or free education.

In the USA it almost certainly would. Remember, even our glorious alleged liberal Obama's health care plan literally wrote health insurance company profits into the law. (Meanwhile he got a Nobel peace prize for drone strikes on noncombatants without judicial process, including killing one American citizen, though that really shouldn't be the bar.)

In elementary school they taught me that Columbus discovered America, and that I should pledge allegiance under god, so our free education is equally indoctrination.

Is that enough shame for you?

You'll be providing phosphorus whilst you rot. They won't need you. Your billionaire worship won't save you: They don't need you, so they will never appreciate you. They think you're the dumbest dogshit on the street, especially for supporting them, double especially because you have concocted this fantasy for yourself on their behalf. You epitomize internalized abuse.

I've worked around and with poor people, and they're awful far more often than working class/professional class types, and they're even awful far more often than the rich are.

Your bias is typical and boring. The rich are stealing from all of us all of the time with their tax avoidance, and they own the businesses that steal wages, and wage theft exceeds all other theft combined.

So yeah, awful people.

You'd suck an awful person's dick for free. We can see that because you're doing it right here in front of all of us.

You can't just give people money or things and expect improvements or happiness.

You literally can.

You need to help them back on their feet

You mean like giving them money so they can exist in our society which requires you to have money if you don't want to be treated like vermin?

and give them an incentive to do constructive things that will help their self esteem

You mean like not giving them enough money to go on holiday?

Another thing that helps is giving some people purpose though work. Some people can't work.

Alone, those sentences are worthless. Together, they are confusing. Make up your mind.

$1.2K a month isn't an income a person could survive on, that might be half or less of an UBI.

The average SSI/SSP recipient is living on $1233.94/mo.

So people were given a donation, and mostly boring things happened.

Yeah, mostly a bunch of people who know fuck-all wrote a bunch of ignorant comments about something they know less than dick about. Thanks for your worthless contribution.
