Overall a good idea. Yeah, there are potential legal issues that could potentially come up if court cases go against the AI gen companies, but that’s the bridge that will get crossed if (not necessarily when) it comes to it.

One thing I don’t get though is the whole “guardrail” thing on live-gens. There is no system that is 100% preventable from someone getting it to say problematic stuff.

If Anthropic and OpenAI can’t screw it down all the way, how can some game company do it? In practice, this’ll mean that basically no game will come with a live service AI. This is like tying people saying stuff in voice chat to the company running the multiplayer servers.

Well-intentioned idea, but not gonna actually work.

Because someone decided it was such a funny idea to use these places to launch missiles at their enemies.

Fucking godawful people Hamas are, ruining the lives of 2 million people and assuring untold suffering for probably generations. The sooner those fucks are gone, the better.

Honestly, I have no real clue.

Twitch isn’t quite completely impervious to adblockers, with proxy extensions allowing us to skip ads still for now, but YouTube could do the exact same thing tomorrow if they wished. uBlock Origin wouldn’t save you, SponsorBlock wouldn’t save you, the only thing that could be done would be a black screen whenever an ad pops up.

Maybe YouTube doesn’t want to fall into the hole Twitch is in, with the proxy loophole, and they view fighting adblockers as a better choice than having to spend a massive amount of encoding expense to have the silver bullet in every country.

Netanyahu quitting while there are rockets going into his country? Will never happen.

They didn’t behead babies!

They only use their own citizens as human shields and parade tourists around like war spoils before killing them. Such shining examples of humanity Hamas is.

Alright, Czech guy, are you gonna put your constituents’ money where your mouth is and help build up Europe’s defense force? Or are you not gonna change a thing because you know the US will continue to act as the world police?

I think you know which one you’ll choose.

Ban weed smoking too.

Things like edibles, sure let 'em have it, but we’ve only just gotten to the point where life doesn’t smell like nicotine anymore, we shouldn’t be replacing that with everything smelling like weed.

Do I pirate? Yes.

My philosophy? I don’t wanna pay for it.

Honestly, with the exception of abandonware that can’t legally be bought anywhere, piracy can’t be legitimately excused. If you do it, you do it because you want something that you should pay for, but don’t wanna. Which is a choice you can make, I won’t hate you for it, but own that instead of pretending that you have a logical moral argument to getting it.
