This is the way.

Ok, I’ll give you that one. Japan is a unique country in that regard.

It’s not a free lunch. It’s just your taxes going to something you actually benefit from.

That’s true in extreme circumstances but we’re no where near any threshold for having a lack talented people willing to work for a fair wage.

I can’t recall the exact timeframe but the world’s population has doubled in the last few decades. I’m not advocating for removing anyone but if we could slow down the making of new people that would benefit everyone.

Wow, there is a lot of anti-men talk in that twitter thread. As if female narcissists don’t exist.

A) Most companies jumping on the AI bandwagon are training their own models.

B) The music industry has been legally using samples to create new songs since the 90’s.

AI is here to stay.

“warns”??? Why are low birth rates always reported as a horrible thing? This world needs fewer people!

Very well written and accurate. I just want to add that the financial requirements to raise children have been out the window for some time as well. Not that they would want to exist in a world with climate change anyway.

That’s not a requirement for everyone. And I don’t mind paying someone for their efforts.

Sync followed by Liftoff

Meanwhile at Raytheon…

Smart move. They also clearly understand that AI is here to stay and it’s better to embrace it rather than fight it. This will give Japan an unhindered advantage while the rest of the world cries over who allowed a computer to look at their artwork.

True journalism went out the window over 20 years ago.

Like 15 years ago I bought the cheapest Brother laser printer. It’s still going strong. The ink never dries out or fucks up. I’ve never felt like the company was trying to rape my asshole. Why anyone still plays the ink jet game I do not fuckin know. I’ve boycotted HP decades ago and to this day I continue to see reasons to never change that decision.

Virtual Reality and related subs are pretty small/nonexistent here still.

Indeed you can. Same with Pico.

PCVR is where the high quality games are. Quest and Pico do have quite a few gems now though!

I thought Flash was surprisingly good! Like I didn’t even want to see it because it’s DC but I laughed my ass off the whole movie. Perhaps I’m in the minority.

It’s so disappointing, the sword play in the first episode or two of season 1 was amazing! I was so pumped for more of that shit. And then we got… what we got.

I haven’t started the new season yet. Hopefully we see some badassery.

I tuned out when she said AI doesn’t create anything new.
