Anyone know what they mean when they ask for protection from AI? Voice synth is going to be very big for video games seeing the massive amount of NPCs certain games have. I don't think Microsoft is the kind to play ball and limit what they can do with AI

You usually only get to kill civilians once you become a cop, not before. Realism 0/10
Making llms requires a stupid amount of data, much more than what is found in the creative commons. Same goes for image gen. Unless you have been accumulating data since forever through tricking people when they sign up to your website or app, you can't train anything without scraping most of the data.
It has nothing to do with licensing but the fact that there just isn't enough "free-use" data.
Anything else is going to bite US in the ass. Asking for consent kills any kind of open source development. It puts AI solely in the hands of like three companies. Our economy is going to be very AI focused in the future, they would literally own all of us.
You aren't getting paid either way so we might as well all enjoy the fruits of humanities labor freely instead of been forced into a subscription model of it.
I remember when hazing was a thing and there was a scandal because a teenager got sodomized with a broomstick.
Shipping was sabotaged and it just doesn't make sense to buy local. The item is more expensive and there's a 30 to 60 dollar shipping fee tagged on. It's usually the same made in china quality.
For work related stuff, I bypass both and get straight from China.
I don't like it but the gov didn't step in and basically handed half our economy to Amazon. At the height of it, they decided to sell our national shipping service so prices went up (I'm in Canada btw).
In a perfect world, amazon would get the boot and we would have a government owned drop shipping infrastructure. Until that happens, I'm not ready to pay 3x the price for simple items just to keep a dead dream alive. Local got snuffed when it comes to consumer goods.
I've read memory of empire lately, which is a political intrigue in a Sci Fi setting. It's centered around one city palace.
I second Lebowitz, the expanse and Ursula especially. Left hand of darkness is amazing.
If you enjoy project hail Mary and the generational aspect of 1000 years of solitude, you might enjoy children of time which has similar themes. It's my current favorite.
Rainbows end, windup girl and scanner darkly are also great suggestions with no space travel.
That's nifty, I didn't know that. Hexbear more like hacksbear.
I'm no expert either but from what I gather, that's a big part of their cost so you end up spiking your normal rail construction by quite a bit.
Any rail is good rail though, I just want them to get on with it.
Nonetheless, I only see one instance abusing of the bug. It's definitely lemmy growing pains though. I'm hoping some instance just outright ban images and emoticon, I always hated them. The little 🤣🤣🤣 always screamed teenage bullshit to me.
No one is upset about people burning a Koran in their backyard firepit. The example is very similar to what is happening.
Big corporations are fueling the concern. The more restrictions that come out on it, the harder it is for small and open source developers to join in.
Legislations just widen their moat, nothing else.
