  • Artists are making creative companies apologize for using AI

    Jump

  • No-one. Training a neural network, natural or artificial, is not "stealing". Or no artist would be able to study the works of other artists to become a better artist themself.

  • Congress Wants Tech Companies to Pay Up for AI Training Data

  • Human brain (any brain, really) is a natural neural network which is trained throughout its life the same way an artificial neural network is. Nothing is original, every creator is "stealing" from every other creator who's work they have studied to become better creators. No creator ever in history has created anything in pure, absolute vaccuum. Every creation is a remix and amalgamation of previously created works.

    And intellectual property is a spook , anyway. No-one can own an idea.

  • The climate action zones - tech vs behavior

  • Same for decarbonisation of heating - if I want to install a heat pump and insulate my home better, that costs money!

    And older multi-story apartment buildings are often practically impossible to switch to heat pumps. These older buildings make up a vast majority of european city dwellings. All you can realistically do is update insulation and the central heating system to be more efficient, but decarbonizing the latter—I don't even know if there are heat pump based solutions that can heat water to 50...60°C needed if it gets to -20°C and colder. And if there is, installing it would be a nightmare.

    Individual heat pumps for each apartment? Where to put the 2 to 4 external heat exchangers per apartment that is needed? If they're on the walls 30 meters from ground how do you have access to them for deicing if they clog up with snow and ice? If they're on rooftops you need mighty long piping to lower floors.

    Heat pumps are awesome, but for apartment buildings you have to plan them in from the beginning.

  • Israel Knew Hamas’s Attack Plan More Than a Year Ago

    Jump

  • The very day Hamas attack happened I suspected that there's no way Israel's intelligence orgs, some of the best in the world, did not know about the plan for the attack way before it happened. This whole affair stinks to the high heavens.

  • flocks are social right?

    Jump

  • That would be a murder, and yes, it's social.
