No! I just lost the game...
I made it a little over a year this time though...

Any kbin user can see everyone who upvoted something. They used to be able to see all of the downvotes as well, but that was disabled with most kbin instances...

As far as I know, all you need to do is find a kbin instance that allows their users to see both upvotes and downvotes (or set up an instance yourself).

It's best to treat your votes here as public if you're coming from Reddit where you normally expect this to be hidden.

If you're going to be wasting space for a QR code, you might as well make it look good.

You're right, whether it's AI generated or not doesn't matter.

This is a copyright infringment matter in which "Fair Use" will become a major factor. https://fairuse.stanford.edu/overview/fair-use/four-factors/

In this case, if the courts rule in favor of Alcon there's a danger that this expands how copyright law is judged and future cases can use that ruling in their favor. It would make it a lot easier for them to only prove that someone wanted an image that "looks like" even when the image wouldn't normally be held to that level of scrutiny at face value.

You're right that there are other factors at play here:

The "Hollywood talent pool market generally is less likely to deal with Alcon, or parts of the market may be, if they believe or are confused as to whether, Alcon has an affiliation with Tesla or Musk," the complaint said.

They are absolutely concerned that Musk is trying to associate his product with Blade Runner and if the case hinges on the association rather than the image in question then I don't see a problem with that.

But it's very concerning that the image itself seems to be a major factor in this case, specifically that they are accusing "(WBD) of conspiring with Musk and Tesla to steal the image and infringe Alcon's copyright".

So you saying that anything AI generated that is similar to something else will get sued for copyright infringement makes no sense, unless you can already do that for hand drawn images.

Yes, you can already sue someone else for copyright infringment with hand drawn images. What matters for the decision are a number of factors (as listed out on that link to fair use) one of them being how closely your drawing resembles the copyrighted material. Here's an article about a photographer who successfully sued a painter who plagiarized her work: https://boingboing.net/2024/05/17/photographer-wins-lawsuit-against-alleged-painter-who-plagiarized-her-work.html

Very small... Only 17 participants.

@kameecoding@lemmy.world exactly this.

In the U.S. we have what's known as a legal" precedent". If a court case makes a decision on something, it massively increases the chances that other courts will use that same decision in similar future cases.

Disney lost their old camera tech used to make a "yellow screen" with sodium vapor lights.

It's actually better than a green screen because the yellow light is so specific that even if you remove that particular frequency of light, everything else still looks fine. You can do all sorts of things that would normally be very difficult to pull off with any of our green screen tech (like drinking water in a clear bottle or wearing a rainbow dress).

The producers think the image was likely generated—"even possibly by Musk himself"—by "asking an AI image generation engine to make 'an image from the K surveying ruined Las Vegas sequence of Blade Runner 2049,' or some closely equivalent input direction," the lawsuit said.

In my opinion, I hope that this lawsuit fails. I know that the movie industry already follows similar practices to what Musk has done. If a studio goes to a certain musician and the price is too high to include their music in the show, they'll go to a different artist and ask them to create a song that sounds like the song that they originally wanted.

If this lawsuit succeeds it's going to open the door for them to sue anyone that makes art that's remotely close to their copyrighted work. All they will need to do is claim that it "might have been created by AI with a prompt specifying our work" without actually having to have any proof beforehand.

According to the complaint,

Elon Musk's image:

Infringes on the copyright of this image from Blade Runner 2049:

This guy is like a character out of Homestar Runner.

What is this a reference to?
I thought it was the Russians that sent a dog on a one way ticket to Space?

For those who want to avoid Google/YouTube here's an alternative link to his Odysee mirror of this video: https://odysee.com/@SomeOrdinaryGamers:a/twitch-is-a-disgustingly-evil:f

The Netflix version of mobile games have their micro transactions removed (or at least all the ones I've downloaded).

You can hear them, but manufacturers had to add external speakers to electric cars to make them louder.

You can go into settings and change it so that it doesn't show to anyone. But at some point they made an update and it reset those options to the default setting even if you had previously set it to hidden.

At that point I just went in and changed my name on my account settings.

Title is slightly misleading. They don't care which country the battery plants are coming from, they're just against EV battery plants being setup nearby in general:

Locals fear environmental degradation, and previously spent years opposing South Korean battery plants.

“We fear that CATL will bring pollution and environmental consequences on our land,” Kozma said.

I have cat allergies, but as long as I don't touch my face after petting them I'm usually fine.

I don't have any cats, but I do enjoy their company when I'm visiting someone who does have them.

I think you're misunderstanding what AGI is.

A robot operating on its own does not mean that it has the achieved the ability to think for itself and reason at (or beyond) human levels.

It doesn't sound like anyone here was thinking that AGI had been achieved.

What expert believed they could pump out an actual AGI? The article doesn't mention ayone with that belief.

i'm also experiencing this issue.

One way to narrow down this issue would be to downgrade voyager to an older version before this started happening and figure out at which version it was introduced.

If downgrading doesn't fix it, then it's likely a GrapheneOS update that caused it... But considering I haven't seen this happen on any other apps I'm leaning towards this being a Voyager issue.
