The AI builded with massive amount of pirated things

Free entertainment is a way to occupy and distract the festering masses. And yet they remain determined to scrub all capacity for such.

If most people using free streaming could pay most would be already.

I work 40hrs a week. No kids in the house. If I can’t stream, then what? Reading news and Reddit, probably. That’s probably the least healthy option.

Subbing everything isn’t sustainable for working class. It kills the monthly with bug bites.

Yeah, how dare anyone want even a little mindless relaxation after being overworked in today's hectic world.

[–] Sagittarii@lemm.ee 23 points 7 months ago

You should get a hobby. Maybe try to actually make something interesting out of your life instead of just commenting on niche internet forums?

[–] zephorah@lemm.ee 8 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I have that, insomniac Lemmy ramblings aside. I’m making a point. There are many individuals out there without that capacity, financially or otherwise.

Art supplies, sewing supplies, woodworking supplies, metalworking supplies, stained glass supplies, even gardening supplies, and all the tools that go with these activities, these are all things that have become quite expensive across the last decade. More so in the last 5 years. That’s the point. It’s not free.

There’s a reason woodworking tools, art supplies, and sewing notions have been locked behind glass or mesh for a while now.

Writing is free. That said, an industry complaint of the last decade is the number of prospective writers is, proportionally, too large compared to active readers of late. And many of those prospective writers don’t read books to feed their craft. I’m sure you’ve noticed the quality decline in fiction, minus a couple notable exceptions.

The point is, what’s free for people to occupy themselves with?

They just produced this interesting discussion that I consumed for entertainment. What about me?

“Ai is just a tool” mf when it’s used to degrade society in every way imaginable

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

I mean, it’s still true. AI is just a tool. Everything is a tool. But the only thing governments use tools for is to degrade society.

[–] Kena@lemm.ee 3 points 7 months ago

It's not even governments doing it, it's corporations. Capitalism is degrading society, not the government.

I'm glad you have the coherence to had complaint about classical algorithms used to do exactly the same before. I remember you saying "“Java is just a tool” mf when it’s used to degrade society in every way imaginable", after knowing how NSA used java written programs to spy on everyone. Very glad to know you are not one of those people how cannot justify their grudge only against AI tools, and completely shut their mouth to many others unethical uses of many other technologies.

In a more serious note. Sad to say that under capitalism every tool will be used to degrade society in every way imaginable. Going after the technologies is useless and counterproductive, the enemy is capitalism, not any particular technology. I know that the campaign of etsy artists against AI was strong, but we really need to look further into the analysis of what's going on than "AI bad because I no longer can charge 200€ commission to some poor people that does not know how to paint for bad sonic fanpics" or "AI is bad because I got denied the change of massively own Intelectual Private Property and became a billionaire just sitting on my IPs while being paid for anyone using AI trained with my Private Property". Analysis should go further. We should question why even people need those side hustles for a living, on why we allow companies use AI tools, or any other tools, for profiting out of society. It would make no sense to just go against AI, when what's hurting people is not AI or any other particular technology, is bad people.

I'm not going to expend the effort to read an essay post by someone who is anti-human.

[–] daniskarma@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 7 months ago

Tell an AI to summarize it for you.

[–] kbal@fedia.io 36 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Is there some way we can use piracy to purge AI sites?

[–] SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org 2 points 7 months ago

I wish there was any way to get rid of the resource wasting, slop producing, talentless pointless technology.

[–] HakFoo@lemmy.sdf.org 23 points 7 months ago

You'd think there's a whole soft-power paradigm being missed here.

The value of export content well exceeds the license fees you negotiate with the English repackagers. Think of how entire generations view Japan favourably after a steady diet of anime, samurai/ninja stereotypes, and kaiju movies.

Flood the market. Free international rights for all. Sponsor your own damned fansubs if you have to. Use it to soft sell your culture, history, and branding. We need 24 episodes of an isekai animation featuring a bishounen Syngman Rhee stat.

why aren't koreans reproducing? well who knows, better focus on shutting down some piracy. fucking governments

Honestly culling the herd is probably our best bet at battling climate change at this point.

[–] _cryptagion@lemmy.dbzer0.com -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

That won’t make much of a dent in climate change. The main cause of climate change is pollution on a massive scale by corporations. They far outstrip the pollution caused by individuals, even collectively.

[–] Ulrich@feddit.org 1 points 7 months ago

That won’t make much of a dent in climate change.

It makes a massive difference. Think about how much food and other products a single person consumes in their lifetime. All of that is gone if they're never born.

The main cause of climate change is pollution on a massive scale by corporations.

They don't pollute just for the fun of it, they pollute to make products to sell to consumers. No consumers = no pollution.

Fake Korea at it again

Won't work though lmao

[–] hellisfulloftacos@lemmy.one 1 points 7 months ago

Even the AI bots are responding in the article's comment section.
