The access isn't as easy at all. It's also the culture though. Nobody buys guns for fun or to show off, they aren't toys, there are barely any gun ranges and you don't bring your kid to it.

You maybe have a gun for hunting, it isn't an assault rifle and you only pull it out when you do go hunting.

Have you ever seen anyone arguing against mental health help? Only one of the two solutions you mentioned has a bunch of idiot fighting against it.

You also can't make mental health illegal overnight. People are born with mental health issues, it's not something they buy at the store or grab from their fathers closet.

Ban guns, ban guns now. Fuck gun culture and fuck all gun owners (even the responsible ones)

I understand your point, but everytime I see someone pointing at mental issues, it just seems to be like they will point at anything except the guns. We can thoroughly take care of the more complicated part of the problem once the easy part has been solved and they are killing childrens with knives instead of bullets.

What about the third option, everyone gets to have the power?

I've seen what Marvin Gaye and Conan Doyle's relatives have done with the power. Dump it in the creative commons. Nobody should own the tonalities of a voice anyways, there quickly wouldn't be any left.

What do you think "someone who has no legal right to be there" is a reference too? When would a citizen not have the legal right to be in his own country? How often have you heard of a citizen being deported from his own country? It's literally against international law.

I think it's a bit more complicated than that. This could pave de way to getting rid of a lot of handicaps and diseases, not to mention fdvr. I care about monkeys, I just care more about paraplegics for instance.

Really easy to see where this is going.

"open source image synthesis technologies such as Stable Diffusion allow the creation of AI-generated pornography with ease, and a large community has formed around tools and add-ons that enhance this ability. Since these AI models are openly available and often run locally, there are sometimes no guardrails preventing someone from creating sexualized images of children, and that has rung alarm bells among the nation's top prosecutors. (It's worth noting that Midjourney, DALL-E, and Adobe Firefly all have built-in filters that bar the creation of pornographic content.)"

Paid software that can be reined it so it doesn't compete with Netflix and disney is fine, the open source stuff is satan spawn.

The easy solution would be to go after the ones that distribute the pictures, this is only about keeping the gravy train going.

There's different ways to automate it. There was a thread a while back where someone outlined their system. He kept the free Spotify account and had a script that checked it every week for his new recommended playlists, then it would download it automatically. He used an other software to host the library.

Google literally considers itself an ad company. They have a huge framework meant to profit off of ads shown on other products and platforms. They sell data as a service to better target consumers for advertisement. It's not comparable to a tv channel.

I just haven't seen any talk of legislation that wouldn't harm the small players and us, the consumers.

I'd like to see legislation so the windfall profits from AI (and our economy in general) is shared more equally. Stifling AI directly is just bad news imo.

Most legislation being pushed seems to concern the use of scraped copyrighted material in the training data. There is no open source software like stable diffusion and the llama llm if this data becomes unavailable to them. This would put companies like google, microsoft and adobe at an insane advantage since they already own all that data.

My family was wrong afterall, back to the bottle it is.

I'm all for the first proper walkable city built from the ground up. Elites already own everything anyways, they run the government. Last generation of elites gave us nothing but gridlock and car fumes, I welcome the change.
