This coming from the company that made the artistic decision to play hip-hop music when the black protag starts a fight.

Requiem is presented well, but I can't get past the unrealistic situations they put the characters through, especially near the end.

It's the "P" in "GOP":

  • Gaslighting
  • Obstructionism
  • Projection

You can convince people that AI is capable of original works, or you can convince people that AI is nothing but a tool to remix and mashup other people’s artwork.

What is original and what is a remix and mashup of other people's artwork? For every example of "original artwork" you could provide, I can show you how it's derivative of other people's artwork.

We've been copying and remixing creative ideas for centuries. There's no such thing as "original works".

So, what's the fine here? $350?

while OpenAI & friends have been infringing copyright on a much, much bigger scale, and getting away with it.

Based on what? Distributing numbers in a big database doesn't infringe on copyright, and downloading a web page or image doesn't either.

The feature creep is a feature, not a bug. They want to be in a perpetual state of early access. They realize that it brings them more money than actually releasing the game and everybody being disappointed.

Just think of the hype of Cyperpunk 2077 before launch and after launch. Before launch, people would be willing to sacrifice their first-born child to play the game. After launch, the hype completely evaporated into scorn.

Oh, they paid her legal fees? How nice!

Of course, that doesn't fucking matter when she was put in prison for five years.

And I am of the opinion that spreading access to knowledge is vastly more important than copyright laws made decades before the internet was a thing. Especially when is comes to US copyright laws being forced upon the rest of the world.

Breaking the law is not how you change copyright laws. Ironically, AI is the best way to crack copyright laws like an egg, but everybody seems to be vehemently opposed to it.

Not sure why this is getting downvoted. It's completely accurate.

They pushed this "digital library" idea to even beyond their own definition, got punished for it, and now they are at-risk of losing their core function. Corporations and alt-right shills would love to get rid of any trace of accountability, and this is one avenue that calls them out on the bad shit they post online.

 

To most of us, this is probably just a summary of events over the past year or so. But, it's good to know that this sort of news is reaching non-gaming channels.
