There are links to images. The author correctly assumes that there’s no reason to insert examples since they are so easily found.

My interpretation is that, in current circumstances, cruelty is the principal way to enforce hierarchy. But, I might have to give up on trying to understand US politics because the differences between the two parties are shrinking.
The article mainly appeals to me because of I’ve seen some people claiming that hate towards AI art is “reactionary,” when the exact opposite seems to be true when you think about the overall context of the technology. A pretty reasonable argument in favor of this is that human artists sometimes have their work called AI slop, simply because their works were scraped and people recognize some similarities in style. The obvious rebuttal is that this is victim blaming. AI models plagiarize, and misinforms people with the unfortunate side effect of sowing division between us.
Huge agree on the object/meta discourse. It’s way more important to talk about specific values than use that binary way of thinking.
Please try to make it past the first paragraph of what’s linked next time

Law prohibiting driving after consuming substances declared as unconstitutional. Of course, the antidrug agency bypassed the courts and parliament to pass it anyway.

Why are you using debate terms?? None of the claims here are exemplified or argued in any way, ironically given its “criticisms”.

It’s curious how much the author wants to make it seem like it does. Even one guy on lemmy asks
Is it so that you don’t have to read replies?
It will be added
Aargh, what’s the point??
flaviato TechTakes@awful.systems•Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending 15th December 2024English11·5 months agoSomeone made a… thing where you run all your mastodon toots through a prompt before posting them and thought it would be a great idea to let us lemmy users know. Comes with ugly autoplag image on the github. The names of the “bots” are hilarious: “ennui” for low-effort posts; I don’t think that word means what they think it means. “Legion” for automatic spam posts. Cause that’s not a dogwhistle or anything.
Hah, I was expecting someone to think that. I wrote the thing so that at a glance the shape of text looks like it’s spicy autocomplete. The text itself doesn’t read like that though.
