Just because there are people available to work that doesn't mean they will be hired. And they won't be hired because of AI.
If the GOP continues to run the government the old people won't be a problem either because they will die when they lose health coverage.
Creating icons in the game is part of creating the game. You just said it wasn't used for that and then said it was used for that.
"I'm against AI slop as much as anyone, and in general a fan of regulation, but this really is something that should be solved by the market. If people don't want AI slop, let them not buy it"
This isn't about the slop. If you're a fan of regulation, and saving jobs isn't a good enough reason for you, wait you're not actually a fan.
My local supermarkets, at least the ones where I shop, don't allow purchases with credit. This is irritating AF even though I have the money in the bank because I get a percentage back.
the "general purpose PC that can also dabble in some gaming" is becoming less common.
It was left behind by the technology. When a decent GPU was only 10-20% of the cost of the system, no big deal. Now it's more like 50%.
No laws or or other words on a piece of paper are going to stop companies from outsourcing to AI.
Right, it's going to take Jihad.
Capitalism is about the Free Market (Free as in choice) not ruling.
False. Free Market is only one kind of Capitalism. Further, there has never actually been a free market of any significant size. It's an ideal which can only be approached, and ironically, it requires regulation to do so.
"I think I'm deeply uncomfortable with these decisions being made by a few companies, by a few people," Amodei told Anderson Cooper in a "60 Minutes" episode that aired Sunday. "Like who elected you and Sam Altman?" asked Anderson. "No one. Honestly, no one," Amodei replied.
When you get control of the money, you get control of the means of production. That's literally what capitalism is for.
Cursive is shit though and people should stop using it. If we're only keeping it around for signatures we should just learn to accept doing them without. They can learn fine motor skills in an art class.
I'm curious, what military application does Voyager serve?
Communications development.
If it doesn't have military applications then it doesn't get funded.
Keeping it going costs peanuts compared to the PR.
Admitting that I made the same mistake elsewhere years ago, one cannot factor a "largest prime number".
Insert simpsons meme here: Largest prime number so far. A native English speaker would understand this to be the meaning unless they were trying really hard to be obtuse.
It's just how they organize it. You wouldn't say NASA is a military organization because its funding is authorized by congress that also authorizes military spending, or because the president is also the Commander in Chief.
No, I'd say NASA is a military organization because it exists first and foremost to support our military. Anyone who believes differently has proven their vulnerability to gaslighting. Our spaceflight projects all have direct military applications.
Microsoft keeps claiming they're changing and then I keep seeing new ads for functionality I don't want to use pop up to distract me while I'm trying to work, and yes this is a locked down work environment where an effort has been made to turn all of that shit off. But you fire up Teams after some trivial update and it wants to tell you how you could use AI in it, no I am literally never going to do that on purpose. If Microsoft has changed it's only that they're adding more gaslighting.
Jesus fucking Christ. I didn't know every incel was going to get all philosophical.
It's easier than washing one's balls.
This has nothing to do with billionaires. You can decide right now to stop buying plastics, stop replacing your phone every year, give up your car and move to a city center, and stop supporting businesses that are oil based.
I don't want to stop buying plastics. I want to have the option to buy actually recycled plastics that actually get recycled. We can do this but we don't. We don't because the people with all the money who therefore control the means of production decide that we don't. "We" is a stretchy word. So is "you" and so's "can". Sure, you can choose to opt out of society, but it would make more sense to make society not shit all over everything.
