I don't have a problem with games creating their own models trained only on things they created. I believe charging money for anything using assets generated by a model trained on data they didn't have the rights to should be illegal. If a model is trained on data that they do own the the rights to, but didn't create, that's a weird gray area where I think it shouldn't be illegal to sell its results, but you should have to disclose that you used it.

I like to use AI autocomplete when programming not because it solves problems for me (it fucking sucks at that if you're not a beginner), but because it's good at literally just guessing what I want to do next so I don't have to type it out. If I do something to the X coordinate, I probably want to do the same/similar thing to the Y and Z coordinates and AI's really good at picking up that sort of thing.
To me, what makes the difference is whether or not it's trained on other people's shit. The distinction between AI and an algorithm is pretty arbitrary, but I wouldn't consider, for example, procedural generation via the wave function collapse algorithm to have the same moral implications as selling something using what most people would call AI-generated content.
Democracy is dead in the digital age. It's a non-functional and corrupt system incapable of representing or addressing the majority's actual needs properly. The US has fallen before many European democracies, but they will crumble under the weight of AI-powered digital disinformation and manipulation too.
It should be illegal to revoke or modify people's purchases. All games should be able to be kept and played using the version you bought it at except maybe MMOs due to technical reasons. Forced updates and DRM need to be outlawed.
That makes sense to me. You might piss people off less by doing that if you put their username in the title or something.
Why'd'ja take no_nothing's post? They seem pretty upset about it.
The frequency with which cm0002 posts would make me say bot if they didn't leave lots of conversive comments too.
Could a state order all businesses operating in that state to stop paying taxes?
That would mean that the corporations basically paid people's taxes for them, right? Wouldn't that just get factored into salaries?
So the enshittification begins... I can't think of a single valid reason for wanting only account-havers to view your post.
