Any pronouns. 33.

Professional developer and amateur gardener located near Atlanta, GA in the USA.

I'm using a new phone keyboard, please forgive typos.

  • "Hey ChatGPT, was the American Civil War about slavery?" Having that fact stored in your head is inherently different than looking it up. Knowing that America has a history of racism and the south have a history of revisionism is very important. This is why some gullible folks really do believe confederate monuments are just about heritage despite being built in during the civil rights movement. It's not the sort of thing you'd think to "ask AI" at all if you didn't already have some of the groundwork. An education is important.

  • Its better, yes, of course, but the talk should be about things like consent and stuff, not a shit post of an idea about jerking off if you feel like raping someone.

  • Disney Exits OpenAI Deal After AI Giant Shutters Sora

    Jump

  • I recently stopped working as a developer for Disney, and even if this deal is gone for using their IP in AI, they're still really big on AI at the moment. From the C level there was a push for everyone to be using it as much as possible. Everyone needed to be showing how much they were integrating it into their workflows.

  • Birthdate field under discussion also in Arch Linux

    Jump

  • I feel this law has the intent to damage and disrupt things in general, yes. Parental controls have existed for ages but lawmakers don't seem interested in them. For example, all the porn bans, rather than forcing sites to use some sort of self tagging system that parental controls could easily see (like some response header) they just want them to take IDs. All of it is a push to forcing people to always be online transparently with their real identity well known.

  • You don't need to be suspicious, they're explicitly adding it because of that. They said as much. Look at what they wrote under "Motivation."

  • Hard lessons

    Jump

  • Well, yes, but they didn't say that, they said something that has two interpretations. I've gotten clients out of worse.

  • Starule Valley

    Jump

  • It's one of the few examples of a, well, I guess it's still technically nearly a plot hole, not a true formal plot hole. You've got this person who cannot be hurt by radiation who helps you by going into an irradiated area to get something to save people. Then when THE SAME THING happens again, they just say "nah, this is your story, you're meant to die here, I'm literally going to let you kill yourself to save everyone even though I just helped you to do the same goal with the same complications and same caveats."

  • You're saying that in a post age verification world though, my whole point is that if this were there before it wouldn't seem bad. I'm not saying we should add it now because it would've been fine before.

  • This website says my device is less trustworthy because I'm using incognito and privacy focused settings. Fuck 'em.

  • Looking for a holiday apartment to celebrate my wife's birthday, came across one with AI pictures

    Jump

  • If you use a tool that generates AI images instead of one that just does upscaling to do upscaling then I'd expect this.

  • Starule Valley

    Jump

  • How in the hell did that happen? Did Fallout 3 devs already have that ending in mind when they began only to add a radiation resistant companion later who explicitly does a task for you along the main quest line to get something out of a heavily irradiated area? It's so stupid.

  • The thing that's frustrating is that if the age verification laws weren't there and they wanted to add a birthday field it wouldn't seem bad. Details about the human using the account like first and last name are already stored. All you really need is username. But because it's explicitly in reaction to age verification laws we have to be skeptical about adding it.
