  • More scarecrow. He's always in the background, doing his strange little fear experiments. I'd like to see something like the Year One comic, going into his unhinged actions as a professor, his weird shit with grandma, and Batman tracking him down like a serial killer.

  • Do we know how energy usage of AI compares to other daily tasks?

    Like: rendering a minute of a fully animated film, flying from L.A. to New York, watching a whole series on Netflix, scrolling this site for an hour, or manufacturing a bottle of tylenol?

    How does asking AI "2+2" compare to generating a three second animation in 1080p? There has to be a wide gamut of energy use per task.

    And then the impact would depend on where your energy comes from. Which is a whole other thing, we should be demanding cleaner, more efficient energy sources.

    A quick search on energy consumption by AI brings up a list of articles repeating the mantra that it's substantial, but sources are vague or non-existent. None provide details to be able to confidently answer any of the above questions.

    That's not to say AI doesn't consume significant power, it's saying most people don't regulate their lives by energy consumption.

  • You know what? I was so out of brain this morning I stared at that for a whole minute wondering if it was right. I write for work every goddamn day and I was like "WTF... how did I forget this. I use these words EVERY DAY." I knew until I thought about it.

    I almost looked it up but then was like... no, 50/50 shot and everyone will know what I mean. No one will point it out.

  • Appeal to Fallacy.

    It might not be a fallacy.

    A fallacy doesn't make an argument wrong.

    There are degrees of fallacies.

    Claiming a statement is wrong because there might be a fallacy is a thought-ending argument. There's more nuance and relatability in rhetoric. Refusing to engage because someone's using a fallacy is reasonable, but calling it by name isn't a magic spell that forces someone to throw in the towel.

  • It's not a bigoted one either.

    "I like feminine people of all genders, what is that?"

    "Normal."

    We don't know OPs gender, but it doesn't matter. All sexualities are normal.

  • Pro: Everywhere it's legal has seen a drastic reduction in the amount of violent drug-related crime, lower incarceration rates for non-violent offenders, and less abuse of prescription painkillers. Plus an incredible rise in quality when pot is regulated.

    Con: Your straight edge friends who've never touched a joint in their lives start smoking regularly, since it's legal. Your 30+ year old friends will start talking like junior highschoolers who just smoked oregano for the first time and think they're high.

  • A guy in my art school made a piss sculpture. He collected it in jars every day and then arranged them like pixels on a rack. It was neat to see the colour variation, since he deliberately ate things to try to get more hues.

  • I did. Specifically this part:

    Im not promoting their use. They are symbols of feelings that many of us are having right now. Just like the guillotine.

    But we aren’t going around building guillotines. At present, Ive not seen any riots in the U.S nor use of either of these except on Nazi cars on dealership lots.>>

  • Some artists are voluntarily contributing to training models when they're paid for their content.

    Other artists are training their own models individually or as collectives for specific purposes.

    Using stolen work without compensation and attribution isn't okay, vandalise away, unless the work is meant to be artistic or social commentary in itself.

    It may not be black and white.
