Good, at least no keayboard with the letters getting easily worn off

Yet.

One small problem: some services won’t let me change my e-mail for dumb reasons, thus I’m struck with MS for now.

Religions that seek to dismantle secular democracies should be persecuted, otherwise we’re just ending up with a different take on “tolerating the intolerant”, and end up like the USA, Hungary, Poland, Russia, et cetera.

Religious freedom should stop at wanting to dismantle secular democracy, just like we don’t allow murderous cults, we should also not allow anti-democratic ones.

What if it’s done with consent, to an adult?

Pedophilia is a paraphilia, and unlike sexuality, it can changed, but needs the willingness of the pedophile.

I liked fruits occasionally, until a kindergarden teacher forced me to eat an apple with worms. Since then, I have an extreme aversion to most fruits, except banana and citruses.

AI could be useful for art, except it’s not made for artists, but the average people who think art is all about an idea, not the implementation. Frame interpolation would be useful, but instead we have hard-to-tame video generator models that can make a few images be animated…

Issue is, AI is often trained on real children, sometimes even real CSAM(allegedly), which makes the “no real children were harmed” part not necessarily 100% true.

Also since AI can generate photorealistic imagery, it also muddies the water for the real thing.

Note: this is likely hallucinations thanks to the AI being fed with cyberpunk novels that likely covered this kind of topic, but there’s also a non-zero chance that the AI is being taught from user interactions (I need some verification on that from people more knowledgable on LLMs than me), and Elon would be reckless enough to not turn it off.

I know, but I used to really piss off transphobes with that line. At least one immediately quote retweeted me, while calling me out as an “extreme misogynist” (she was defending Matt Walsh of all people, saying he’s just practicing his “right to religion”) just before blocking me.

GPT-4o seems to be like that by default, likely to hide some of the AI artifacts that are there due to the training material is full with JPEG images, and the AI does not know what to do with it.

Also it still has the usual issues the moment you don’t provide it with a reference.

Gamedev using D here, my main gripe with programming isn’t AI, but that I decided to go with my own engine, and now there’s barely any documentation on graphics API use that isn’t the OpenGL manual, as I’m encountering very interesting bugs recently (textures disappearing, texture glitches, etc.), while most article nowadays being about how I wasn’t supposed to learn any programming, but instead art, so I could create the next Undertale, Touhou, etc. all alone, and it would be truly my game with my true intentions.

Some people are often asking “but what about these other tools”, when I criticize AI. IMHO, some of the tools that made game development more accessible also made it more atomized, since you have less need for a programmer nowadays, with some tools not even requiring “classical” coding, but is visual in nature instead.

Trans women are adult human females.

“Men and females.”

There were some AI models that could interpolate animation frames, specifically made for animators.

However, all trace of it disappeared and development resources were instead concentrated on generating animations from a few text prompts, primarily made for non-artists like corporate executives and investors.
