I transcribe posts over on c/microblogmemes along with whatever else i feel like transcribing

    That's a weird thing to say

  • The training for the models still requires massive data centers, ai has caused data center power usage to double in the last five years

    That's a good argument for stopping the training of AI models, but the models we have are here to stay.

    The personal impact is the artist that does not want their art used this way.

    Maybe they shouldn't have publicly released their art to the world if they didn't want people or machines to make things similar to it. Copying is not theft, I think Nina Paley is right about that.

  • Honestly I think whatever this Ghibli trend is about, it's just good advertisting for the real Studio Ghibli.

  • It's a good read, but I'm not sure if it's a good take. This seems very emotionally-driven and not really logical. Someone could make low quality Ghibli style images by hand in large quantities. Is that just as bad?

  • The environmental impact argument doesn't really work anymore now that you can produce AI generated images on a standard gaming PC. Also I'm not sure what you mean by "personal impact". I can understand "social impact" but if the person generated the image themselves, I assume they would enjoy it and not have a negative personal impact from it.

  • I really wish seamonkey still worked for modern websites. It's so cool.

  • YSK that if you lose your Social Security Card (USA) more than 10 times, the Social Security Administration will have to, by law, refuse to issue anymore replacement cards, for the rest of your life.

    Jump

  • so if you want to ruin someones life, just steal their social security card 10 times?

  • Blizzard conditions hit the Midwest while wildfires and tornadoes threaten Central US

    Jump

  • I know its terrible but I really enjoy the hell-like conditions. Life is a lot more thrilling under a tornado warning

  • Maintaining roads has never been sexy

    Well I can't say building or maintaining roads gets me sexually aroused, but why is maintaining roads not "sexy"?

  • Some things never change

  • The GNU Image Manipulation Program is edgy to you?

  • I see these MFs on a daily basis

  • I don't think Windows, Mac, Android, iOS, whatever is "ready yet" either. operating systems are always in development. There are things I can do on my linux machine that I can't do on my windows machine, and vice versa.
