Self-Styled "AI Artist" Furious That People Are "Blatantly Stealing My Work"
  • ai is simply aggregated

    Try a collage in Photoshop instead

    Idk about that logic

    The dudes stuff is pretty nice. Most people can't make stuff that nice in midjourney. Not necessarily saying it should be copyrightable mind you, but I think there's at least some artistic ability this guy has. Copyright is a clusterfuck as it is so that seems like a moot argument anyways.

  • The book does not exist
  • Y'know when you post stupid bullshit like this it really glosses over real issues with ai like propaganda but go on about how you can get it to hallucinate by asking it a question in bad faith lmao

  • Nintendo plans to sue Palworld-maker Pocketpair
  • Pocket pair has money. Pal world was a smash hit and sold millions of copies and they could still be buried under legal fees by a behemoth like Nintendo via bullshit like repeated appeals

    Edit: in the us at least, not sure if this is suit is in Japan only, seems it was filed in tokyo. See the downfall of gawker for a US example

  • If lemmy.world became the biggest in the fediverse with a user base that could rival Reddit. Would it become monetized?
  • I think there is an arms race with content moderation that even if the instance is not themselves trying to monetize, clever and unscrupulous ad agencies will slip ads into feeds under the guise of actual content. I think it's a big reason Reddit went to shit even before it went public.

    How do you separate a user who innocently includes McDonald's into a post or comment from someone doing so with the intention of driving revenue? (Do you want some fries now?)

    It's probably already the case now just the 'ads' are mostly all political shit. Same idea just with a top-down political agenda rather than driving sales. They have all the public fediverse data to base their strategies on already.

    I think this issue is just handwaved away with "oh go to a different instance" but we're here for content ultimately and not all instances have what we're looking for. Ad agencies are going to be able to adapt to a changing landscape like that because it's literally their full time jobs/careers.

  • The Mandelbrot Set
  • It's actually fairly recently discovered, first described in 1978 and kind of required computer graphics to show the crazy details.

    Blows my mind how such a simple algorithm creates such complexity. There are other minibrots found throughout the set so it goes on infinitely.

  • Supreme Court rejects multibillion-dollar Purdue Pharma opioid settlement that shielded billionaire Sackler family
  • I think there is likely to still be just as large of a personal variance in the rate that lisdexamphetamine is cleaved into the active metabolite, so the same problem arises.

    I think anything that delays the active metabolite from taking effect technically dampens the addictive potential; the longer the better. I also think it's unlikely to really solve the problem though tbh. People can still tell what's causing how they feel when they start a new medication.

  • Malaysia plans 'orangutan diplomacy' to boost palm oil sales
  • This is because it grows where rainforests are supposed to be, what is maybe the most productive natural habitat. There is likely far more wildlife per land area where palm oil is grown than places you can grow other vegetable oils.
