But then I'd ask how do you outlaw human systematic consumption of information. The camera on my car cant watch 24/7, then why should YOU be allowed to watch 24/7? What you're outlawing is the literal methodology.
This has always been an issue with my thoughts on AI. If the computer became sentient does the LLM learning rule go out the window? or is it because they are made of metal?
I feel like they need a test case to figure out how to define derivative work when the creator is not human.
If i make a painting and you see it and then make one in a similar style it would be considered derivative and not a violation. In your head is a distillation of my image. It doesn't contain the image and your output would be lossy. Similarly the LLM contains statistics and not verbatim content. So the question is "how is human synthesis different than AI synthesis."
Until that is resolved a class action would probably fall apart. Individual damages would need to be determined and even a single example of "you put your stuff out to the public and aren't going aftet Joe who made derivative work..." would derail the case.
You would think that but we did have a few tens of millions of people vote for someone who said he was going to fuck up the economy and now these people are all asking what the hell happened.
Maybe we should stop assuming and start calling a spade a spade.
Your examples listed above are skipping the part they are taking issue with, "becoming a billionaire." The problem isn't that it's emotive language, its that you don't care to focus on the portion they want to focus on.
To become a billionaire you make the vast majority of your money off the backs of other people. Some do it via markets, investment, buying and selling companies and all other things "capitalism." There are others that do it through actual slavery and other extremely abusive methods. But no billionaires do the work themselves to make this money. And all billionaires could give more back to those doing the actual work, relishing themselves mere millionaires and still never have to worry about money.
Maybe we should be acknowledging when a billionaire does a good thing but not ignore the fact that they are just giving away other's hard work. Maybe the only real good act a billionaire can do is not be a billionaire.
Sometimes you work in a codebase that was decided on by others for reasons you don't know.
The idea would be that the Gov renegotiates the loan, pays off some portion of the interest to make sure that all of us have money in savings expecting return to get it, and then the home owners would get a more reasonable rate. The government would also have to tell all the bank shareholders to take a long walk off a short pier. Oh and jail the C-level
The problem though was that many of the people taking on those horrible rates were people or properties that were bad investments. And the government never really cares enough to punish white collar crimes even they are industry wide like this. Look at Wells Fargo. They full on committed fraud, signing people up for accounts without their knowledge and no one went to jail. If you or I did that for one individual its a felony. But if you're the bank itself its no big deal. WF should have been broken up and sold off and a bunch of people should be living in a cell.
They aren't the same thing so the comparison is weird.
endl has a flush which is important when doing something like embedded work or RTOS development. If i was doing multiple lines they all were \n until the last line when i actually want to push the buffer.
Obviously depending on the tuning of the compiler's optimization multiple flushes could be reduced but the goal should always be to write as optimal as possible.
I'm imagining those early rocket failures where they just fall over and burst into flames.
Sorry i mean WILLINGLY pay.
It is the mechanism by which you get normal people to fund and promote horrible acts. How else could you get your grandmother to pay for hiding pedophiles from the law?
Sadly i don't think that will happen unless there is a substantial degradation of the quality of life in red states. The failure and the cause needs to be so mind numbingly apparently to even the most entrenched Trump supporter that they actually force their representative to join in on real reform. Unfortunately if we do have another election and control switches it's most likely going to still have 40% or more of the voting population have political blindness. Farmers will lose their farms and still vote Republican.
One thing you will eventually find out is there is a good portion of the company who thinks they are an effective employee when they really aren't. For example I work in Software and Hardware development. In 25 years I've worked in large companies and small, big teams, small teams and teams of one. I've had many project managers and in almost all cases they have ranged from bad to pointless. The well oiled teams found the project managers only got in the way and provided no ROI to their work. So much so that in one org the PM left and they never replaced them which resulted in the teams highest productive quarters two years running.
If we were to vote I'd ask for justification for those roles and what their returns are. What actual added benefit did they bring and what problems did they cause. The issue i foresee is that every single one of them would say they were very valuable and important. But if you asked the people under them doing the actual development you'd hear the exact opposite. With the pandemic and everyone working remotely you'd think their role would become even more important but a lot of places have shown that haven't.
