  • Indie Dev Who Pulled Game From Xbox In Solidarity With Palestinian-Led BDS Hopes Others Will Do The Same

    Jump

  • Your opinion is bad and you should feel bad. Palestine leadership may not be great (or even good), but at least they're not actively carrying out a genocide.

  • Copyright Office head fired after reporting AI training isn’t always fair use

    Jump

  • That's crazy talk. You should put that idea on ICE.

  • After an Arizona man was shot, an AI video of him addresses his killer in court

    Jump

  • True, many people would have that problem, which is why the context in which the video was shown was acceptable; it was after the verdict had been given.

  • But that's what she did. She was upfront about the fact that it was an AI video reciting a script that she'd written.

  • After an Arizona man was shot, an AI video of him addresses his killer in court

    Jump

  • So it would've been equally bad if instead of a video, she'd just read a statement she'd written in his voice? Something along the lines of:

    My brother isn't here to speak for himself, but if he was, he'd say blah blah blah

    Jump

  • Why not? It wasn't used to influence the trial in any way; it was just part of the victim impact statements after the verdict was rendered.

  • First American pope elected as Cardinal Robert Prevost becomes the 267th pontiff

    Jump

  • We bought our own pope! Now we can inflict even more suffering on the poor!

    USA! USA! USA!

  • No doubt it's weird, but it was also a genuine attempt by a sister to speak for her beloved brother. I think it's beautiful and a perfect example of the importance of keeping an open mind, especially regarding things that make us uncomfortable.

    Jump

  • Oh, I agree that it's creepy and something that could very easily be abused. But in this case, it seems to have been the right move. Whether the dead brother would have approved, we'll never know. But the living sister seemed to earnestly believe he would have, and that's enough for me.

  • What makes it immoral? Nobody was hurt in any way, physically, emotionally, or financially. They disclosed the use of AI before showing the video. It even helped the perpetrator get a smaller sentence (IMO prison as a concept is inhumane, so less prison time is morally right).

  • Technology isn't inherently good or evil. It entirely depends on the person using it. In this case, it had a very positive impact on everybody involved.

    • Woman's brother was killed in a road rage incident
    • In preparing her victim impact statement for the court, she struggled to find a way to properly represent her brother's voice
    • Her husband works with AI and helped her generate a video of her brother for the victim impact statement
    • The video was very well received and apparently true to her brother's personality. Though she didn't forgive the killer, she knew her brother would. So, in the AI video, "he" did.
    • After all the real people made their statements to the judge, the video was played
    • The judge loved it and thanked the woman

  • They didn't learn and now they pay the consequences.

  • Yeah, fascists are bad, but facists? I got accosted by a facist a few years ago. I still seethe when I think about how hateful he was to me simply because of my resting bitch face.

  • Why did a guy walk into the mud when he saw me coming down the sidewalk?

    Jump

  • You've already got some good answers, so I just wanna say that, as one who appreciates personal fashion, that is a nice outfit! Great use of creative clashing between the fishnet and the poncho. And the belt is a good bridge for them.

  • Where did everything come from?

    Jump

  • Everywhere

  • Trump reinserts himself into Canadian politics, saying 'as a state, it works great'

    Jump

  • What we need is a parental figure to take Trump by the scruff of his neck and force him to apologize for what he's done.

    Excepting that, I hope conscientious Americans are writing to other countries' leaders to apologize for Trump on behalf of the reasonable half of the population.

  • Fitgirl Oblivion Repack already released

    Jump

  • Good stuff. Important for people who want to play the game but don't want to give money to Bethesda and, by extension, their genocide-complicit parent company, Microsoft.

  • [Game] Hogwarts Legacy Adds FSR 3 and XeSS 2 With Mod Fixes in New Update

  • FYI, it's an acronym: TERF. Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist

    Personally, I disagree with Rowling's views regarding trans women, but it's unfair to condemn everyone involved with making the game for the IP's creator's backwards views, especially since she had no role in its development.

  • Why? Why can't? Why don't?
