yea but the whole point is that it is not art... never will be

And even if it was, it would be art stolen from the poor to profit the wealthy. The worst "art" there could possibly be. And then it's so tacky and mediocre on top of that.

Either way, I can't draw a line between art and non-art, but I can draw one between humans I respect and humans I don't.

We basically have the situation that some people thought they were super clever by finding out that you can steal from a blind beggar, enhancing their productivity, getting those results. Sure you can do that, they're blind after all, just yoink it; but you cannot undo it, and we all saw. A person who would do such a thing will never understand why people who would not do such a thing are appalled at them. And they think they don't have to care because they now have "AI" and can just brute force or work around consent. I don't know how exactly this will fall on their feet but what goes up will come down.

What is art? How is it not art? Collage is art, photoshop itself is used for cut n paste of photos, and people call that "art". AI image generators go through a much more interesting process to make their art.

they installed Linux on a PS5 and somehow the Windows games running through proton get same or sometimes a little bit more fps then the native ps5 game, its crazy

why can't we prevent wall hacking by not sending packets of enemy players position if the user can't see them on their screen

You can do it to a degree (basic room detection), but it'll never be 100% accurate because of latency and compute cost, you have to give leeway.

Sometimes user can partially see them, game client would need that position. Then user can make a mod that flashes silhouette that just appeared behind a wall for a moment.

this is something cool done by valorant - see https://www.riotgames.com/en/news/demolishing-wallhacks-valo...

you run into some really difficult to solve issues when it comes to the gameplay loop, the graphics engine, and network latency trying to solve that unless you are playing some sort of turn based game where all data can be resolved before the next action

not a trivial solution.

i am really doubting that Nintendo Switch uses Linux?... they would have to provide source code no?

Only to the kernel. And only if they patched it. Kernel modules don't count as patches. This is how myriad android vendors get out of providing source. But no, the switch doesn't use linux afaik.

umm we all helped? its called taxes... how do you think Starship is being funded ?

By an already super profitable SpaceX. The moon stuff is a drop in the bucket and only came well after success.

What other company would you rather see funding go to?

Mostly starlink

just don't share the slop not that hard? share your actual art

Yeah, of course. That's my plan.

But that's just a personal choice. If I made something amazing and I wanted to launch it, I would. And I'm still lost as to how Spotify would classify me under these rules.

wanting to support actual artists is being a "purist", why can't we just have opt in toggle to allow AI slop?

You can support real human artists all you want, that is your choice. That is not purism.

Purism is saying, like a lot of intent in this thread, people who listen to AI music are dumb and tasteless.

i agree they want to make more money but come on calling them "AI artist" ?

same and artists i already know

No one is forcing you to listen to Spotify. You are free to buy a turntable and play all the non-sloppy music.

Seeing the popularity of some AI songs, people DO want to hear to this sort of music.

i pay to listen to music now i have to not use discovery mode because spotify wants to earn more money by pushing ai slop to its listeners to not have to pay real artists

> because spotify wants to earn more money by pushing ai slop to its listeners

If people listen to AI songs, how does Spotify get a bigger cut, as you seem to be suggesting [1]? Or are you suggesting that Spotify is generating/has rights to this music?

AI slop is quite antithetical to Spotify's business model, they would actually lose money if say tomorrow, AI music dominates the charts, when AI music gets that good, people can just generate their own music and leave Spotify back in the mud.

It's probably the "AI artists" themselves generating false engagement and manipulating the algo for discovery.
