GOG is good too.

Right? Call it what you will, changing terms of sale or use after taking someone’s money is wrong.
There are probably safeguards in place to prevent the creation of CSAM, just like there are for other illegal and offensive things, but determined people work around them.
the AI has to be trained on something first. It has to somehow know what a naked minor looks like. And to do that, well… You need to feed it CSAM.
First of all, not every image of a naked child is CSAM. This is actually been kind of a problem with automated CSAM detection systems triggering false positives on non-sexual images, and getting innocent people into trouble.
But also, AI systems can blend multiple elements together. They don’t need CSAM training material to create CSAM, just the individual elements crafted into a prompt sufficient to create the image while avoiding any safeguards.
It would not need to be trained on CP. It would just need to know what human bodies can look like and what sex is.
AIs usually try not to allow certain content to be produced, but it seems people are always finding ways to work around those safeguards.
i feel like he sounds like psychopath even now.
I think it’s rash to judge the tone of his writing like that. It can be a struggle to identify and admit one’s flaws, and it’s certainly a struggle for most people of the modern era to write elegantly with only pen and a few sheets of paper.
A person like what? There’s no connecting thread between morality, emotional maturity, and programming skills.
Actually agree, generally.
Bitcoin is a pyramid scheme basically, but it’s not the only block chain in town.
Anonymous peer-to-peer financial exchanges can actually be good.
Cooperative ledgers can be good.
Public ledgers can be good.
It’s not a brilliant new idea, it’s a good old one. Jitneys are back baby!
I’m sure grit + wealth is far better than either alone. It’s really probably grit + wealth + connections + luck.
Xavier, Renegade Angel, biblically accurate? Maybe.
Isn’t the old bit about organized crime how they always have a second set of books? After all they do want to be able to track their finances.
Or at this point, the one whose tracking is easiest and safest to avoid or circumvent.
Also mind that soon these new cars will be used cars with the same bullshit.
Yeah. No one ever gave me AdSense dollars for nearly busting my fucking head.
I’d like credit scores systems to be fully public and developed by the government. It would be far better than the three private systems Americans deal with now.
They’ll tolerate arguments over precise economic policies that amount to discussing how many angels could dance on the head of a pin, but hold far tighter to what amount to cultural arguments. “USA bad” means “Russia good” because Russia is against USA so if Russia does bad then it’s good actually or else no it didn’t happen.
Gab is for the fringiest of the right wing. And people often cluster disparate ideas together if they’re all considered to be markers of membership within their “tribe”.
Leftists, or at least those on the left wing of liberalism, tend to do this as well, particularly on social and cultural issues.
I think part of it is also a matter of not so much what people believe as what they will tolerate. The vaccine skeptic isn’t going to tolerate an AI bot that tells him vaccines work, but maybe generally oblivious to the Holocaust and thus really not notice or care if and when an AI bot misleads on it. Meanwhile a Holocaust denier might be indifferent about vaccines, but his Holocaust denialism serves as a key pillar of an overall bigoted worldview that he is unwilling to have challenged by an AI bot.
