Peasant uprisings, to take down the kings of today.
Wait until Trump gets reelected, then the American “criminal monitoring” systems will be used to target political dissident too. Similar thing already happening in Hungary, except Orbán is currently forced to pretend he still a supporter of democracy.
These are hugely unpopular moves from the supreme court.
If that gets updated, then it will favor big corporations.
Issue is power imbalance.
There’s a clear difference between a guy in his basement on his personal computer sampling music the original musicians almost never seen a single penny from, and a megacorp trying to drive out creative professionals from the industry in the hopes they can then proceed to hike up the prices to use their generative AI software.
I personally don’t care if someone “steals” my code (Here’s my profile if you want to do so: https://github.com/ZILtoid1991 ), however it can mean some mixture of two things:
Of course it could mean totally unrelated stuff too (e.g. just your typical anti-China and/or anti-communist paranoia sells political points).
Put content that is illegal in China into your code, problem solved!
Same here, although I already had a Mastodon account.
Where is my ARM notebook that isn’t a luxury device?
But what about game designers and artists? There’s a good reason why eurojank exists.
There’s a good reason why many call generative AI a scam.
And now, a new golden age of malvertisement will emerge…
It’s more like publishers etc. are believing they can just produce more and more, while not realizing the market of such things are already oversaturated.
Worse, public domain license, except you need to modify them a lot.
Since they’re being trained on GPL (and possibly leaked proprietary) codes, I have banned them from my codebases. I also banned AI art from asset usage on similar + ethical grounds.
Forced openness is good for certain things, but not so good on others. That’s the reason why I licensed my game engine under BSL (whith some components of course under MIT, ZLib, and Apache), within the game development community things like that more accepted. It does have branding material, which anyone can use unless they were either behaved really badly, or being used for non-engine related material. Certain engine assets are under yet another license (public domain).
I’m somewhat of a creator myself and I mostly use creative software that has Linux versions (will move to Linux once Win 10’s support expires and/or I somehow get enough money for a new PC), and they’re legit better than Adobe software for my usecase. Photoshop is nearly unusable for digital painting (it’s more of a photo-editing software with some drawing capabilities), Krita is pretty good, and my only pet peewee was that some of the brush compositing modes had confusing names and were hidden deep inside the menu, but then I found “greater”, which can somewhat mimic the behavior of the default CSP brushes.
Also can someone recommend me a guitar amp modeller (preferably an open-source one), that is available on Linux, so I won’t suffer from both the demo of Guitar Rig came with my Arturia Minifuse, or with trying to get one running in Wine with all their complicated copy protection schemes?
I used the limited HDR capabilities of my monitor (VA panel with no backlight zones I can spot) in some games, it’s somewhat better than in normal mode, otherwise I just use SDR to save power.
They should add Mastodon integration instead.
I think it will give a rise to blocking ads through intercepting network connections…
