I don't think anyone in this thread has suggested software are people. But in the same regard it is very likely at some point the ability to simulate a human mind and persona is a real possibility.

Ha, I'm sorry do you think you've made a logical point by comparing rubbing your hands together, and "igniting a nuke." Again, this isn't a "this at small scale is ok, but at large scale it isn't" arg

Why would I attempt to come up with a "better" example of a premise I reject? Your vague response doesn't seem to have anything to do with the the base subject this whole thing revolves around. Plagiarism be it small scale or

Actually the burden is to prove that what AI is producing is plagiarism or copyright violation, this isn't about some special right, but that there are many making the case that things produced by AI are duplication of their work. I&#x

Are you trying to make a shoestring argument? Sure you can do that, but because there are several laws against that specific action already, you will be likely face prosecution, and the content (something poorly duplicated, not created) wou

Many things share characteristics with human, we have for decades created methods for systems to emulate and synthesize those characteristics. It is sort of delusional to think that the abilities of humans can't be produced by other s

Well because no one is attempting to claim that the structures or products produced by using Hammers are plagiarism? In a sane world, things produced by tools are owned and credited as creations by the users of tools, there are many who see

Is it a fallacy? Can you provide a legal or logical basis for this being treated differently.

The argument isn't small crime vs large crime. It is no crime regardless of scale. If it is acceptable for a person to learn, then it should be acceptable for a machine. And any derived works produced from that information isn't t

How large do you think your some total of all things learned would be as a dataset, we aren't that different in that regard, just in how we amass that dataset and how curated it is.

I was trying to stick to the example, but I agree, that getting away with something doesn't determine if it is right or wrong. And the whole concept of that makes for shaky ground for any form of legal or ethical argument.

Can you name a single password vault that has removed the ability to export, I would say it is a bit of wild speculation to assume this would happen. Even more so as there seems to only be anecdotal and speculative evidence this would happ

I have dyslexia, and perhaps its because I developed a lot of mechanics to handle it, I don't find the font useful, it doesn't resolve any of the issues I have, and I find Console fonts more appealing.

what an odd clickbait type article, it goes over the history of people who previously wanted to do this. But mention there is no current effort to do so, and asking the question is irrelevant.

I always found it interesting as the sharp term including C# was odd because it isn't the sharp symbol, which is ♯. All of them use the # hash character, so calling it sharp always seemed odd to me, though C-Hash also doesn't roll

I wonder where the divide of "shebang" vs "hashbang" lands geographically and chronologically, During college and for many years in the early 90s and 2000s in the south it commonly called hashbang, didn't hear sheba

when the defense of a project is that you can turn off the bad features, you aren't really making a chase better than say chrome or anything else. A product built on trust, shouldn't involve having to go turn off untrustworthy ele

I don't think your expectations are correct. Most sedans made today, the average max carry weight of a sedan is 900lb. And even at 900lb you fuel economy and performance is far less than "just fine." Also cargo weight distri

Hybrids are great until it comes to long term maintenance where you are not having to manage and work on two different systems. Having personal who can work on both electrical and gas has been one of the issues with the hybrid adoption in
