  • Targeting an open source project. So brave, what a statement. /s

    This has 0 effect on all the big AI companies like OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, etc. All this does is make it harder for FOSS projects and leaves the corporations to dominate.

  • I look at art without paying anyone, I guess I'm stealing.

  • My post was essentially a knee-jerk response to a blog I read. It's not really all that important, I just thought it would make for a entertaining post. And it was.

  • Techy without nature? I don't know where you're going with this.

  • And how's that academic discourse working out on a service that caters to fascists and actively hates academia?

  • What kind of society would you like?

    Oh jeez, I'm not going to try and tackle that question right now, but I will say I'd like a much fairer one where people are taken care of.

    I wonder what you think of art deco such as the Chrysler building.

    I love Art Deco! The Chrysler building is beautiful, but I don't think the world needs skyscrapers.

  • I can't think of much I'd rather not do than live on a farm. I'm from the Midwest (Indiana) and it is a backwards, intolerant place full of backwards, intolerant people. They have tech and they still suck. I also hate gardening so that's also in my bottom 10. The ideals of solarpunk sound nice, but I don't know how well that would play out in reality. I probably wouldn't like it.

  • I switched to DuckDuckGo for a few years, then went to Ecosia for a while, and now I'm using searx. I'm not sure how searx prioritises the results, so I'm still adjusting to it, but overall it works okay.

  • Yeah, thanks for clearing that up. I think I just got a bad impression from some posts I read and terms I may have misconstrued.

  • I think something about the style of writing or terms I'm not familiar with. Some of what I read on social media was off-putting, but it's likely I misunderstood.

  • Thanks for the clarification!

  • Thanks for the clarification. Maybe it's the way stuff is written that has given me a bad impression.

  • The same way they are now? Copyright is barely a protection for independent artists, and largely serves the interests of big "IP" holders like Disney.

  • Ok, but that is beside the point. Copyright only serves the interests of large IP holders, like Disney.

  • Because not everyone thinks the same way. I can appreciate the basic concept of solarpunk and would love to be able to say I'm all into it, but there are some important questions I personally need resolved. If I didn't ask, I wouldn't know. They may not be questions you have, however that doesn't mean they're not valid.

  • Well, if you don't copyright everything, then it's not stealing. We need more open culture, not closed off "IP".

  • Anti-AI is a brain-dead idea anyway. Artists should be more open with their art, not less. Yes, even with AI.

  • AI is certainly a bubble but Nvidia has been working on this stuff long before the hype. I don't think you can easily dismiss them. Personally I don't think the future of AI is giant data centres, it will be running in desktops GPUs and dedicated AI chips. It already is.

  • Oh Spotify, when will you stop trying to push people to the high seas

    Spotify is worse than piracy. It's a robber baron.
