  • Apparently there's some huge drama in data hoarding communities about manufacturers switching between different recording technologies, and how everybody is worried that they aren't going to last for 5-10-100-1000 years.

  • You could take the interpretation of "ownership" to many ridiculous conclusions, from "all ownership is theft" to "nothing is owned" to "all governent is crime" to "all taxation is theft" etc...

    From a practical standpoint, "ownership" is an arbitrary threshold of exclusivity that is generally respected by society under appropriate conditions. Where that threshold and what the conditions are will vary by the type of property and general social sensibilities.

  • I cannot for the life of me find it, but there was an article before the modern explosion of ML into the public consciousness where a guy found that one of the big search engines offered an API to "rate" nsfw images on a numeric scale. The idea was that site admins could use it to automatically filter content with a bit more granularity.

    So naturally, he trained a naive image generating model with the nsfw score as the sole metric of success, and got results much like you describe. Results were pretty much "what if Dali and kronenberg had a baby with slaanesh?"

  • I think the heart of the accusation is "initial" in the headline. We're all seeing a repeat of bank bailouts, ppp loans, etc, where the bucket is going to run out immediately before anybody who actually needs it gets a drop, and everybody else is going to end up footing the bill.
