It is interesting isn't it. You asked for a painting. A robot made the painting. You looked at it and said, "well, I guess it's good. Should I put it online or something? Dunno. Hey Fred, what do you think of this?"

I don't mind an a-hole using the research. I wouldn't even mind if someone used it without attribution. It's that I want to be given back things they do as well. I want them to contribute back. This project does something, a

It's slightly different. Obviously- else there would never have been GPL to begin with- I suppose. I wouldn't mind if people used the code, etc. It's that I want to be given back. That's the trade off. Not paid, free

Is there a way to do GPL anymore?

Sigh.. Is there anything better now though? All I see from AI, is an amplification of the enshittification of the internet. And people being even more alone.

Huh.. That is an interesting idea. I like it. You have a company, it is worth below X dollars? You do what you want. Above X dollars, now you get government minder for every decision. All of the "buying to shutdown competitors"-

Yes- thanks for explaining vendor lock-in to me.

Also it's name has "open" in it. Which means you can do what you want with it, and it's all open source! Just the other day, I tried to have openrouter route to my local ollama, and it refused. Apparently I have to pay

The "alternative marketplace" should be replaced with "no marketplace." How do people accept this "alternative marketplace" idea? This is obviously a way to increase friction in order to maintain dominance -

Imagine if Apple and Google and etc, didn't vendor lock-in. Imagine we could run what we wanted. Imagine that we could use whatever payment system we wanted. Imagine if apple wanted you to use Apple app X, it would need to compete and

Why can't we just use our computers the way we want to use our computers? It is so dumb that vendor lock-in even exists, and I'm sick of it.

Don't worry, the west coast comes online in a couple hours -- they will be positive.

The next generation is so f*cked. It's going to be far worse than I imagined before. We are going to have kids who, instead of imagining their own fantasy lands, are given them by AI. Of course the AI will be far superior to a 6 year

Here's a question. Tangential I know. "Digression!" If you had a kid, let's say 6 years old, and they had a "super hero" they wrote stories about. What would it mean, if you took away their creative process a

This is so depressing for me. The drip will be everywhere.

"don't we all think that ideas are cheap" No. We don't. Original good ideas are exceedingly rare. Also, what we really have learned, is that the typical techie isn't interested in pureness of thought and originali

Bot farms, AI stories, AI comments on AI. Waymo had a story on this site not long ago. All of the comments were mostly positive - but in real life, no real life human I know wants Waymo. None. And anyone who bikes is vigorously against

Interesting, thanks for the reply.

I'm not sure why, but my brain always gives a strong "this is not real" alert with Gaussian splats. Something about the lighting is really off for me. And whenever I see videos explaining the Gaussian splats, they always cla

If you are a computer programmer who meets up with your buddies to play every once in a while, no you aren't an artist. If you are in a band, and you are playing all the time, obviously you are an artist. The job is facilitating you p

Sure, if you devote yourself to art, you commit, and I'm not talking some insulated school environment, to improve and struggle, and then you burn out. Yes, this is a well known path for an artist. They failed, but they are still an

"I was an art major and switched to CompSci purely for the money." Translation: Not an artist. I worked for 30 years as a pianist. The number of programmers who have told me they too are a musician... No- you aren't. And y

Wow. These are horrible. Sort of refreshing. I thought video was better than this now, but I guess not.

When I see bullet point lists, I hit the back button. Is this just me? The smell of AI- it's like rotting vegetables.

Out of curiosity - is this a "couple hours" sort of thing, or a "tens of hours" or "hundreds of hours" or other?

When I was growing up, I thought "competition" was about better products. But looking at Google and Apple, Meta, and AI - "competition" is actually about creating monopolies through evil business practices. Growing up w

My thoughts exactly. Some openclaw got loose.

I think, the defining moment will be when one AI convinces another AI to convince third AI to do something. This might seem like I'm writing a nonsense, but read it again.

LOL. I realize this isn't 4chan from 2000s- but I can't tell if you are arguing that Luigi messed up by committing murder, or he messed up by offing the wrong guy . That's hilarious. I guess. Maybe not?
