Just 'cause you think something is sexy doesn't make it porn.
And just because you think something is salacious doesn't make it porn either.
And EVEN IF something is porn? That doesn't make it worth banning. Just 'cause you don't like it doesn't make it WRONG.

Even if you don’t like “pornography” or think kids shouldn’t be allowed anywhere near “pornography,” consider that the people with power to legislate what that MEANS have a very different definition than you do

I'm sure Adobe will take it out on their users. What else could they possibly do? Give people a reason to use their software? Ditch the subscription model that made everyone hate them in the first place?

i really hate how the term "accessibility" when it comes to gaming is used for:
- the ability for anyone to play it regardless of disability
- the ability to secure a copy of the game
- the ability for the average person to jump in and play a game comfortably

Saw a lot of headlines saying "wikipedia is embracing ai" being tossed around tabloids, and I'm pretty sure they were maliciously written to make you feel a certain way about Wikipedia. What's actually happening is that wikipedia is demanding payment for data scraping and the corpos don't like that.
Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.
Hoping that @molly.wiki can help explain.

There is NO EXCUSE for the death of an unarmed civilian at the hands of an armed "officer." EVEN IF that civilian attacks them. If the "officer" "can't" stop them from attacking without killing them, they WANTED to kill them.
If you’re trying to blame Renee Nicole Good for being murdered by ICE… shame on you.
There is no justification for what that agent did.
She has a family who will read & see the things you’re saying.
Have compassion. Put the phone down. Don’t add to their trauma.

Regurgitative AI is now implicated in multiple deaths but still there is no sign of regulation.
Meanwhile, governments are working to ban trans people from public life based on imaginary scenarios that haven’t happened.
Not even AI could write a situation as stupid as this shit.

This article doesn't propose Dell is ditching generative AI. They state all the AI stuff is still there. They're just *making a point of not mentioning it anymore.* They didn't "figure it out," they outright stated that they think the problem is AI confuses people, not that people don't want it.

Reducing car dependency is not taking away cars.
It's letting people thrive in places designed for people as opposed to, the way it's been in most places for as long as I've been alive, making cars a hard requirement for everyone except the most deathwish athletes.
It's in the name.

If you're using AI in your game dev, be loud and proud about it. All this wishy-washy "It's just concept work! It's just coming up with ideas! It's just QA! EVERYTHING IN THE GAME IS BY HUMANS WE SWEAR" comes off as whiny and desperate and begging for forgiveness. Just be a dick. You know you wanna.

Okay real talk, the only sense in which GenAI is "here to stay" is that even after the bubble pops, AI is digital asbestos that is poisoning everything and we'll probably be picking the detritus out of everywhere it's ended up for years, assuming there's a will to remove it en masse that is.

But if you work in the ART DEPARTMENT and you need a death machine stuffed with your colleagues’ work to give you ideas
Quit.

Every writer who generates a slop image for their work is a class traitor.
"I can't afford a visual artist"
So your solution is stabbing artists in the back? Stealing from them?
Furthermore, slop-generated imagery suggests slop-generated writing. That's how you're presenting yourself.
