Technically TikTok is not actually state run either. But in both cases the governments in question can simply pressure the owners to submit to their demands.

If you don't use Facebook maybe you can speak out against it, but as far as watering down evil goes, no major technology company is innocent.

If the issue is age appropriate content, that should also apply to the games being played. Yet children can watch people playing GTA just fine and nobody cares.

Look, I'm Latin American. If you are gonna tell me US is more trustworthy and less likely to attempt to undermine other countries and inflict inhumane conditions upon them, I'd suggest for you to read a bit more international history and all the dictatorships they have backed in other countries.

Do US corporations have any accountabilty? These days, looks like that only applies to their shareholders. I remember those leaks revealing that the US government has more access to internet company data than it lets on.

Still, I wouldn't want to live in China either. But as far as getting screwed by companies from other countries, I don't see much reason to trust one over the other. Any rights and protections that you may have do not apply to me.

All that considered, between Tiktok or Instagram? They are equally bad as far as I see.

Even if AI detecting tools are flawed, most pages that feature AI art have it explicitly stated in their own text, which it's something their crawlers could definitely pick up on.

Are we finally going to get the Any key?

Not to defend China in any way, but its influence over the world is far more economic and profit-driven than militaristic. Often it's hard to separate China from for profit corporations simply due to how much those corporations rely on chinese industries.

Yes, but the answer here is Google. Google is already making these calls, whether or not we get to discuss it.

Not really. However much Google might index everything, they decide how to prioritize search results. The order of results makes or breaks a search engine. This argument likely wouldn't be happening if AI output were left several pages away from the top.

If someone is searching for reference images, it should not put AI generated output over photography and original art, because by its very nature AI generated images can't be the ultimate origin of any kind of image.

I know, Rick kinda is the ultimate representation of that, both ways.

Some people are so petty or have such bad self-esteem that they will contemplate the infinite only as a means to put someone else/themselves down

Interestingly I think the 2D Zeldas aged less than the early 3D ones. ALttP is pretty good to this day.

I'm almost certain this is why so much blurring and flare was pushed as "realism" a couple generations ago. The devs and artists needed their eyes checked.

As someone that already has to deal with a somewhat blurry perception, I don't want any more of that, ever.

The games really need an option to just turn off tutorials. I imagine it's a little bit trickier than that because they need to be designed in a way a small child won't accidentally turn it on without realizing. But there must be a way to do it.

Persona 1 and 2. As a Persona fan I see some people saying how great they are, and the story does seem interesting, but I can't deal with that map movement, battle system and endless random battles.

Really, any RPG with random battles is a little harder to get into compared to overworld monsters you can avoid or target at your own pace.

That is an endlessly fascinating experience. No wonder it inspired so many other games

Baldur's Gate 3 is amazing. There is so many hidden things everywhere and it does D&D better than some campaigns I played

Playing sus amogus Vampire Survivor DLC

Yeah, the moral scandal of shouting that kids are being exposed to sex is just too effective at enabling all kinds of overreach.

But if you say that sex education, teaching about consent and risks and how to seek help, is far more effective at protecting children than any sort of censorship, they'll act doubly scandalized. And parents who don't want to talk about sensitive matters with their precious little angels fall for it every time.

I get wanting to keep porn away from children, but on the flipside I don't trust governments with a history of criminalizing homosexuality with my porn history. Looking up, it seems that these states even kept laws against sodomy in their books.

Bofuri?
