Ooo, that list is super useful and it's getting bookmarked

Woah, that looks surprisingly in-depth for an rpgmaker game! I will have to give it a go

Oh gee, I hadn't heard of books before.

In seriousness, this came about from visiting a museum and wishing that there was an easy way to revisit it through some sort of 3d simulatio.n And then thinking back on how I enjoyed Carmen Sandiego growing up.

Obviously neither is ideal for learning (focused books are a more effective tool than walking through a museum with a bunch of disparate exhibits), but I wouldn't discredit the educational impact of the experience. Humans are very visual and tactile creatures.

That being said, I don't spend my downtime attempting to do things as efficiently as possible. I'm not on a deadline, so there's no reason for me to pick up a textbook and write essays for the most efficient learning possible. It's OK to enjoy the experience.

Probably falls under same case law with Sony's VCRs being able to record cable TV way back when https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_Corp._of_America_v._Universal_City_Studios,_Inc. Though this predates use of internet for streaming/piracy/etc, supresupreme court could interpret differently now

I agree that it's too early, but disagree that it would never be possible. If the EU can successfully move away from Microsoft like they're trying to do now, then I think that will provide an excellent model for moving away from other tech monopolies.

Personally, I prefer social communities to not be so heavily monetized. On the other hand, it would be nice if Frendica ran a bit better, but I can hardly complain if I'm not giving any time/money to that project to make it so.

~~The article is 5 paragraphs long. Is it really that hard to read it and answer your question?~~ Nevermind, I think I misread your comment. Sorry!

What Sony is specifically trying to do is see if any AI song can be traced to specific songs- e.g., if someone prompted "make me a song in the style of Lady Gaga", would Sony be able to conclusively determine this based on the outputting song?

I am a bit skeptical of this working, but then again, there were some image generators spitting out gettysburg watermarks.

I think you misread it - 71% said drive. 29% is still pretty bad, but it is kind of a "who is buried in grants tomb" question.

Yes, it's disingenuous for him to bring up all the time used for humans to evolve as well. If we're going to go that far, we also ought to include the energy/time used by the engineers who created ChatGPT, and all the energy used by plants/animals in the evolution leading to those engineers. Not to mention all the time/energy/training of all the people who created the training data over the past few centuries.

Frankly, at that point, any human artist is more "efficient" than AI - they're able to master their field in mere decades.

I think if he meant it that way he would have said that, instead of talking about the energy that humans use and particularly talking about food.

I think it's fair to expect students to use computers in a programming class. I don't know if there's a need for students to be using computers for the entire school day

Yep - I've already been bugging my grandma to get a passport so that she will be able to vote if SAVE act passes (she changed her name when she married, but doesn't have a passport since she's never left the country). Gotta avoid doomerism and make the fascists fight for every inch we can.
