I did say that, because this isn’t a pie chart situation, it’s a Venn diagram situation.
For instance, AI art is 99% theft and 60% garbage. It’s both because there’s overlap.
Stolen and bad aren’t opposites, why would this be a dichotomy?
Oh, I enjoy lots of great art! But do you think I watch every film? Listen to every band? There’s tons of shit out there!
Do you really believe, of all the songs that are written every day, that less than a third are crap? Even Taylor Swift doesn’t publish everything she does. Sometimes you work on something for weeks and then end up tossing it in the bin. More often, you work on something for 30 minutes before deciding “I’m gonna start over, try something different”. The majority of art is crap, but then you keep the stuff you think works.
And what’s that expression, “good artists copy, great artists steal”. I mean, that’s a bit satirical, but the fact is, everything is derivative to some degree. It’s not that there aren’t new ideas, it’s just that our new ideas are based on older ones. We stand on the shoulders of giants (or at least, on the shoulders of some people who came before us).
All I was really saying, was that the accusation “2 parts copying, 1 part crap”, well honestly that’s par for the course, that’s how humans work. (And we do some great work that way).
AI artworks 1/3rd shite and 2/3rds theft.
To be fair, that could be said of most art.
So… Ted voted against his own bill?
Probably lots of people in red states. Farmers for instance, people who generally buy the Republican bullshit, but may personally rely heavily on immigrant workers. ICE puts them in a really tough position.
There could be money involved…
I can’t really blame the studio though, I mean the publisher went bust. The game was coming along slowly, but it was definitely coming along, and I really liked what I was seeing.
I just wish Private Division wasn’t such a mess. It’s all just so disappointing.
Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.
What types of data does the US sell to advertisers?
Types you haven’t even thought of. Every type of data is sold, and then derivatives of data are sold. Directly collected data, inferred data, guesses, it’s all packaged up.
It’s already happened once. A couple years ago some astronomer spotted a small asteroid with a high albedo (it was very reflective, brighter than normal).
Some Internet folks verified, and with a few more observations they were able to calculate its orbit. Turns out the orbit matched that of the Tesla shot into space. The high albedo would make sense as the Tesla is still connected to the falcon 9 upper stage, which is painted all white.
You seem really invested in making sure Teslas are off the road, but not at all interested in regulation that would keep all dangerous autonomous vehicles off the road. So… do you work for BMW, or Waymo?
I don’t understand the complaint. I mean given their track record, with a system like this, they wouldn’t be on the road.
You know, unless it all worked.
That’s almost like a “three strikes” rule for drunk drivers.
Oh man, that would be amazing. If after 3 strikes, all drunk driving could be eliminated… If only we could be so lucky.
He’s not talking about a per-vehicle points system, he’s talking about a global points system for Tesla inc. If after a few incidents, essentially Tesla FSD had it’s license revoked across the whole fleet, I mean, that’s pretty strict accountability I’d say. That’s definitely not handing out free passes, it’s more like you get a few warnings and a chance to fix issues before the entire program is ended nation wide.
You weren’t the user who posted that video, but you seem to be quite knowledgeable in this specific case…
Can you link that crash report? Or can you cite some confirmed details about the incident?
Not the article, the post from njordamir that you were directly replying to.
shouldn’t accountability be in place now,
Again literally what that user was suggesting
Actually, lots. The issue is that if it doesn’t work it’s dangerous.
Man, I cannot figure out why that vehicle was turning. What is it trying to avoid? Why does it think there could be road there? Why doesn’t it try to correct its action mid way?
I’m really concerned about that last question. I have to assume that at some point prior to impact, the system realized it made a mistake. Surely. So why didn’t it try to recover from the situation? Does it have a system for recovering from errors, or does it just continue and say “well I’ll get it next time, now on with the fetal crash”?
and these robo taxis don’t have drivers.
Oh yes they do… The diver is Tesla, inc. There’s no problem with charging a company fines, that’s easy. It is difficult to issue higher penalties though, jail time, or license revocation. We’ll need to work out solutions for that, they should not get off free.
But we can certainly fine the driver…
There’s no accountability for this horribly dangerous driving, so they shouldn’t be on the road. Period.
Well that’s exactly what their post was about, adding accountability.
Do you mean what ubiquitous toxin will be next?
Or do you mean how can we get by without plastic?
If it’s the second one, the answer is easy, fucking aluminum. We’ve had the answer forever and it still works great. Glass too, good for many applications.
Now the actual problem isn’t plastic bags or beverage containers though, it’s clothing and tires. Most clothing is plastic these days and tiny plastic fibers break up into micro plastics and take to the air or end up in the sea. Car tires are also just plastic these days, not rubber (which is arguably better for the environment than leveling rainforest for rubber tree plantations, sigh…), the tires rub off on the road like a pencil eraser on sandpaper. This also ends up in the air and sea.
So anyway, replacing plastic beverage containers is a great step, a no brainer, but it also doesn’t address the real problem at all. I hope that some day soon tires and clothes can start to be made with biodegradable “eco plastics”, but if that doesn’t turn out to be feasible, we’ll be in some serious trouble. And once we have some real, feasible, affordable replacements, then we need to actually outlaw the use of older plastic tires, in every country on the planet, despite heavy lobbying against any new measures from vested interests… I can’t even imagine how to make that happen. How did we do it with lead? Has every country outlawed lead in gas?
