Millennia of human cultures would correctly have recognized this as demonic

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

It is unbelievably funny how load bearing American democratic norms turned out to be

Tbh this would make the redwood line so much more intuitive to me

Love to get sick before a big trip. Nothing like traveling for 12 hours (minimum, assuming no delays) while also feeling like my throat is made of gravel. It’s the best!

Source on these? They kinda go hard

Sora is not the real problem here. The real problem is that in 12, at most 24 months, there will be a Sora clone from Tencent or Alibaba that is just as good and can be run by anybody with a 5099, at which point everyone in society needs to rapidly agree to treat all digital video as fake, period.

Honestly I cannot begrudge the parents. I cannot imagine the kind of pain they must live with on a daily basis, and the emotional fortitude it takes to dedicate yourself to a cause like that is immense. But the person who built a model of a dead child should have said “no, we shouldn’t make this”

Parents of Parkland shooting victim use AI to "bring him back" The "AI Joaquin" uses the 17-year-old's voice and his past social media posts and other writings to mimic his personality.

Resurrection, as in using this technology to create a simulacrum of the deceased. I think that one day soon somebody is going to run a business where you can zoom with your late spouse. In fact this has already kind of happened with one of the Parkland victims www.axios.com/local/miami/...

I think a real problem in this world is a lack of posting bushido. You can go to war with the mods, with the big accounts, hell with the government itself on X the Everything Site, sometimes it is the honorable thing to do. But you should have your death poem written.

how is it that the posts that get traction always have obvious typos

One thing that especially sticks in my mind is that you don't even need to be far sighted to see this. You cannot build this shit without knowing that and just not caring. And I also don't think you can untangle it from the reaction against MeToo.

Really snapped at a family member recently when he asserted that he simply wouldn't care if someone used his image to create a humiliating video of him having sex with a horse. It's pretty indicative of me to where all this shit is going, which is total normalization.

What are you gonna do, set up a government registry of RTX cards? Best of luck with that. No, I think the only thing out is an ironclad culture against that kind of behavior, and I'm not optimistic that we'll be able to muster it.

I do not how you even deal with this other than social norms of a strength that we have spent the last 10 years proving we can't hold onto. How are you gonna stop the most anti-social teenager in the highschool deepfaking every girl in his class into the most obscene situations he can imagine?

Don’t build this shit man! Do not fucking build that machine that haunts people with novel videos of their loved ones long since gone. If you’ve got talent to cook that shit up, go to fucking Wall St or something

Gonna get real dark when people start trying to honest to God res people with AI

this zone can (will) get so much cooler

ever think about how they haven't even fired the "nationwide ban of mifepristone" gun yet?

Useful idiots, you might say!

The French? Rude? Say it aint so

Also pretty telling that everyone's strongest defense of this person is that they were one of the earliest people on BlueSky --- ok man, who gives a shit? You just reinvented the idea that people who have been around forever get a pass on bad behavior!

Of course death threats and harassment have always existed, but democratizing them is not a good idea, actually.

I do think basically every site would be better if a much firmer hand was taken with anything that even resembled a death threat. That kind of thing no longer resulting in social sanctions is genuinely part of what has brought us to where we are today

Both the left and the moderates love to accuse the other of focusing more on identity politics instead of kitchen table issues for working families, because both believe incorrectly that people vote their interests rather than their values.

Beyond the candidates, the entire party reaffirmed and accelerated the framing that republicans gave for the border war. The democrats have been collaborators in justifying the current reign of terror and this is a massive liability in counter messaging now.
