My first instinct is to say “No shit Sherlock”, of course people who get paid more for their projects can afford to contribute more time to them…
but I do understand that having empirical documented evidence of something, even of it should be common sense, is really important, cause common sense isn’t as common as people think it is (especially when a lot of people in power seem to quite intentionally lack it)
Image manipulation has always been a thing, and there are ways to counter it…
But we already know that a shocking amount of people will simply take what they see at face value, even if it does look suspicious. The volume of AI generated misinformation online is already too damn high, without it getting more new strings in it’s bow.
Governments don’t seem to be anywhere near on top of keeping up with these AI developments either, so by the time the law starts accounting for all of this, the damage will be long done already.
Too many people end up in debt spirals with these BNPL companies because there’s no consistent safeguards against it, so we absolutely should be regulating them better. We shouldn’t be leaving financially vulnerable people to the wolves.
Wow a Republican with a spine, I didn’t think those existed anymore
As far as the companies go, their lack of resources is an entirely self-inflicted problem, because they’re won’t invest in increasing those resources, like more IT infrastructure and staff. It’s the same as many companies that keep terrible backups of their data (if any) when they’re not bound to by the law, because they simply don’t want to pay for it, even though it could very well save them from ruin.
The crowdstrike incident was as bad as it was exactly because loads of companies had their eggs in one basket. Those that didn’t recovered much quicker. Redundancy is the lesson to take from this that none of them will learn.
I think what @riskable@programming.dev was saying is you shouldn’t have multiple mission critical systems all using the same 3rd party services. Have a mix of at least two, so if one 3rd party service goes down not everything goes down with it
Elon Musk openly flouting the rules of the platform he owns to knowingly share misinformation to disparage a woman he doesn’t like…
Tell me Elon is a right wing shill without telling me he’s a right-wing shill
It’s a tale as old as time for the right-wing… in the words of Bono, “Well, tonight thank God it’s them instead of you”.
The right-wing doesn’t know empathy past their nose, so as long as it’s innocent Palestinians being killed in droves and not their own, they won’t care two shits.
Whelp, anyone who took bets on him acting like a war hero over this can now go collect your winnings - which is just more listening to Trump unfortunately.
Because that’s comparing oranges to apples.
In terms of pure image quality, real objects would win every time because they only have to be filtered by our eyes - digital images are filtered through the GPU and screen before ever reaching our eyes.
As such, the real contest is the ability of displays to make digital images look comparable to those real objects - because that’s harder to do vs. ust looking at the real life object, it’s more impressive to us.
It’s sad that asking NATO Governments to not be fucking hypocrites regarding international law is something applause-worthy now
Possibly Newgrounds, I used to lurk around there a lot when I was younger
To jump on the bandwagon, OP’s showing their age. I can’t remember where I first saw Badger Badger, but it was definitely pre-Youtube (or at least mainstream Youtube) when Flash was all the rage
Who knew all you needed to make yourself above the law was appoint your own judges… The level of corruption going on in front of our eyes is astounding, they’re barely even trying to hide it at this point.

FTFY
No, but it’s on a similar scale as far as Boeing is concerned.
Exactly. This is like if you charged the average person $1 for causing a major motorway accident.
It’s a joke of a fine in the face of Boeing’s profits - basically telling them they can get away with severe and wreckless disregard for human life in return for just over a week’s profits.
Tell you what it certainly is a “special” military operation considering that it’s taken over a year, and at this point requires conscription… An awful lot like if Russia had started a war
I thought Earth was Neapolitan style, but it was Chicago deep dish the whole time! If only I’d have known earlier!
So the profit cap has been removed and the non-profit has been kicked out of the control seat. Sounds like they’re taking off all the safeties in the name of money.
Goes to show the money always wins, and if AGI comes true, humanity will pay forfeit.
