The problem with AI CSAM generation is that the AI has to be trained on something first. It has to somehow know what a naked minor looks like. And to do that, well... You need to feed it CSAM.
So is it right to be using images of real children to train these AI? You'd be hard-pressed to find someone who thinks that's okay.
It's not Trump the shitheel being president forever that's necessarily the problem. It's that he'll set things up for Trump the idea being president for life. The next person to take the reigns from him, likely someone more competent, will be that US Emperor because of the damage Trump and the Republicans cause.
What "creation and self expression" means to corporations is micro transactions in the form of skins, textures, and single bits of paid content. Like buying a horse, then having to pay for the farming bundle.
I recently got out of the military and it's been a complete shock how bad the private healthcare system is. So much red tape, so many charges, so much money being spent on both ends: to the insurance company, again to the insurance company (copays), and then to the provider when the insurance company won't cover things.
With Tricare? "Hey doc, I need this med for my migraines." "Alright, here you go." No charge.
The American health system is a complete scam keeping people under the boot of their employers and of the for-profit insurance companies.
I don't give a shit if lunch is supposed to be on "my time," companies should be paying for every minute you're there. Lunches should be part of the 8 hour workday because dedicating 9 hours just to be paid for 8 is bullshit.
This was me. Not that I was racist in any way, but I was brought up with a father that absolutely did not (still does not) think that systemic racism existed, that wokeness was damaging, really that any issues the left focused on were mindless and stupid and damaging.
I went into my first sociology class with that kind of mindset, and the moment I actually started doing research for papers, I realized how wrong I was.
Really the only people who rail against "woke" education are the ones who haven't gone to college (my dad) or those making money and power from the grift.
I more and more believe that religion should be treated like a mental illness.
If you told people that you heard voices in your head, they'd put you on meds. If you tell them Jesus spoke to you they'll put you in charge of a country.
