  • The wider issue is you have to generate that energy, and you have to be able to capture more carbon than that generation released.

    As I understand it doesn't at all. This is why it's seen as analagous to a perpetual motion machine, it's an endless chain of power plants capturing each others carbon to no end.

    You could use solar of course, but then why generate anything with fossil fuels just to capture the carbon with solar? Just use solar.

  • It's not any of those reasons, it's because it can only exist by being trained on human authored art and in many cases you can extract a decentish copy of the original if you can specify enough tags that piece was labelled with.

    The ai model is a lossy database of art and using them to launder copyright violations should be illegal, is immorally stealing from the creator, and chills future artists by taking away the revenue they need while learning. This leads to ai model art having not enough future work to train on and the stagnation of the human experience as making beautiful things is not profitable enough, or doesn't give the profit to those with power.

  • I'm posting the same comment in two replies here now, terrible behaviour, but yes exactly this was an attempt to force a sale and get tiktok into American ownership.

    It feels very neat that America would think tiktok would ultimately choose the option where it gets more money, but that the Chinese instead choose control.

  • The comments here show the real problem, adverts dont have to say why they've been selected.

    All online ads should have to say which filters they matched to advertise to you. The advertising in most cases now is centralised into Google or Facebook, this is absolutely technically possible.

  • I think you've been down voted a little unfairly.

    Yellow warnings are useful for people, to know a local stream will flood or to remember to bring in plant pots from the wind etc.

    But they're not worth a real news story are they?
