Hmmmm….bleeding out is a hell of a business strategy. Let’s see where it goes.

I wonder how much interest dipped once people realized they can’t make counterfeit SpongeBob anymore. Also, a million people may have downloaded the app but how many can actually use it if it’s still invite only?

This feels unfair to Hank Scorpio, though. His doomsday device actually worked.

According to their people, a basic quality generation costs ten cents a second which means $1 a generation. If a million people got to do 30 generations a day that’s a lot of cash burn. I doubt there will be enough users willing to pay to offset any costs. No one wants to pay to make meme videos.

I will never not laugh when Ed insists on calling him Wario Amodei.

Both of my parents are still alive thankfully, but I can still imagine how upsetting it would be to log into social media and see someone puppeteer their digital corpses for likes.
Anyone who says they’re doing this out of love doesn’t know the meaning of the word.

Hoults Luthor is still delightfully petty though. He created a monkey troll farm just to pick on Superman. World class hater.

“There’s a-doings a-transpiring!”

So their next big idea is ….Cocomelon for grown ups?

A sentence I’d never dreamed of ever saying for multiple reasons but….

Don’t take medical advice from the President!

Hmmmm….someone’s up to some shenanigans.

Bills definitely afraid of fading away. He never misses the opportunity to crap on youth culture. He clearly never came to grips with his Abe Simpson moment when it hit him.

In addition to that, I have family telling me fertilizer prices spiked this year. So….it looks like thanks to the tariffs overhead is way up and potential profits are way down. They’ve complained about Bidens policies but nothing he’s done has led to something like this so quickly.

So her ultimate goal is…Borg Queen, I guess.

What’s irritating is the company’s CEO is implying they are bringing Welles’s creative vision back from the grave. You can’t copy a mind from video or text. Whatever “vision” comes from this it won’t be Welles.

Warner Bros. Joins Studios’ AI Copyright Battle Against Midjourney Warner Bros. has become the third studio to sue Midjourney for blatant infringement on its copyrighted characters.

Good. Tear them apart.

If only it could be like the Return of the King where when “he” dies his underlings get swallowed up into the ground.

I wonder what’s going to happen between this and AB 2013 going into effect in the new year. I would think something would crack wide open.

If anything it’s just as dystopian as we were afraid it would be. Every driver I’ve had for years behaves like they’re doing it at gunpoint since the money is crap and getting anything less than five stars will destroy you.

I see we’ve entered the Gabbo style stage of marketing…

Very tasteful. Who among us hasn’t dreamt of dying horrifically and coming back as a jib jab animation?

Gives me Moviepass vibes. Make big promises to distract from the insane cash burn.

I don’t know what’s more upsetting. That someone would fantasize about exploiting a dead man’s voice or that the best thing they can think of for its use is….giving directions.
When someone passes on it is permanent. This forces you to make new relationships and bonds.That’s how life works.

Given that now Elon’s Grok had Nazi sympathies and can now apparently be a waifu it’s not hard to guess who his chief engineer is.

Scoop: Blackburn to offer amendment to strip AI pause from budget bill Sen. Marsha Blackburn will offer an amendment to strip the AI pause in the reconciliation bill.

Call your senators asap. (You can do so via 5calls.org ) and ask them to support Senator Blackburn’s AI amendment!

We only need 4 GOP senators and all Dems senators to stop this abomination (amongst many other abominations within that terrible bill)!

Let’s go get em!

Illegal downloading they were convinced they’d get away with until they got caught. That’s stealing. Even eminent domain required just compensation.

That’s the result of technological innovation not the result of stolen property. Most sane people wouldn’t sign away their life’s work to train their replacement, unless they’re greedy or desperate, so tech companies opt to not give them the option in the first place.

I can’t think of any instances where a persons own property is used as a resource to put them out of work. Cars weren’t derived from the horse and buggy, they were created independently from them. Stealing a horse wasn’t necessary to build an engine.

The Real Reason Bob Iger Declared War on A.I. Disney is racing to keep its fight with Midjourney inside the judicial system and out of the political swamp. Insiders insist the endgame isn’t a licensing deal, but actually to compel A.I. companies ...

Disney's got an eye on what the Trump Administration is doing on the A.I. front—and the lawsuit against Midjourney is just the beginning. puck.news/why-disney-a...
