Doesn't it? The people making the new game don't want to dilute focus on their new product. When somebody searches for Delta Force on Steam, they want it only to return the new game. This is like when Rockstar pulled classic GTA: SA before dropping the remaster.
I'm both posting as high output as I feasibly can of OC, and aggregating links from blogs and creators I follow to !tabletopminis@lemmy.world, as a way to minimize reddit content.
!wargaming@lemmy.world is also full of links to articles and blog content relevant to the hobby that isn't ripped from reddit.
So many people complain about dead niche communities or niche communities only recycling reddit content. If that same energy was put in service to making new content, the communities would be improved. There is a bystander problem where loads of people complain, but if you check the profiler of the complainer, you often find few to no posts.
I've been posting creative OC for ages because I enjoy it. It's great to have people bounce their own creativity back. I don't need an audience of millions.
Recently I started doing commissions, which means that the stuff I'm posting is also being paid for, which is nice. It doesn't change my desire to post my stuff for the sake of it.
And this is why I'm asking, because I know little about UK law, and am trying to figure out how this is going to move forward. She can sue, now I wonder about the theory that leads to a win. Protected categories is a start, but it feels vague, and I'm curious what the precise angle and evidence brought in will be.
I am waiting to follow the case for updates, because while I hope that the outcome pushes back on AI system like this, I am skeptical of current laws to perceive what is happening as protected class discrimination. I presume in the UK the burden for proving fault in the AI lays on the plaintiff, which is at the heart of if the reason is legitimate in the eyes of the law.
If the AI is flagging faces and immediately alerting employees, it is likely also going to throw up a flag for abnormal interference like that. Or if it doesn't do it now, it is a feature that could be added if such hats become a common enough.
