I understand, albeit in layman's terms, more or less what LLMs and image generators are doing, and used the ship of Theseus as shorthand referring to the processes by which real photos are laundered into data sets.
I am aware of the literal difference between an individual model and the data it trains on, and understand that Grok and it's like are divorced from their output. I have even played with running a local model. This level of concern would be unwarranted if humans were decent and only trained Grok on and requested of Grok to generate puppies playing in open fields.
That doesn't mean any image created by it henceforth is in any meaningful way a picture of you.
Of course not, it is a picture of hundreds of thousands or maybe millions of people who offered up varying degrees of consent* for the use of their bodies to make any kind of porn.
*Usually 0%, as data illegally scraped is not subject to a hostile TOS agreement if it is uploaded as training data by the scraper without even the knowledge or consent of the original company hosting the data
Like anyone who has ever seen a child or depiction of a child producing any sexually explicit illustration of any sort everafter, then? Because even human artists do not create ex nihilo, they start from a foundation of their cumulative experiences, which means anyone who has ever laid eyes on your child or a photo of your child is at some level incorporating some aspect of that experience however small into any artwork they create henceforth and should they ever draw anything explicit...
I think this largely speaks for itself as some of the worst words ever put together in any order generally. Comparing human creativity and how we draw inspiration from our forebears to the present subject is abhorrent. Imagining human minds turning every single speck of human flesh they see into jackoff material because you assume that is how the mind works because you learned it from a robot is beyond everything.
Die on some other hill unless you're being paid well. This is a neo Nazi's CSAM and propaganda machine. If they want to fix it, they'll scrub their training data and figure out the weights and do a massive ban wave on the abusers. It is not on this world to suffer excuses for this hideous fucking bullshit.
Your power button is the chunky button that powers the pc on and off. Typically you'd push and hold it for several seconds until your computer shuts off, ditto for starting again.
It probably looks like one of these and is on the front or top of your computer case near the front, odds aren't has an LED.
It's usually advised not to press it unless you have to, since apps like to close and save and stuff before they get shut down so the button doesn't give your pc time or notice to do that.
Luckily in the "start menu" or whatever UI element where there are buttons for navigating the list of apps there is usually a built in button for shutting down the pc, saving the currently opened stuff to RAM and putting the pc into "sleep", possibly a similar function called "hibernate" too. On Pop if you are using GNOME or (I think) Cosmic as your desktop, those elements aren't the top bar in the upper right. Otherwise you should be able to simply search "shut down" in whatever search menu/launcher pops up if you hit the Alt key.
Your firmware update might ask you specifically to use the power button on the outside of your pc case, but it should prompt you on screen if that's necessary.
I hope this helps! You probably wanna get any updates you've been putting off done, it could even help without mouse issue.
