What about legally forcing AI company to add some invisible watermark to all images and video they hallucinate so they could be programatically recognized?

@Kingu Many image formats have a metadata field for this, but LLMs are already lying about everything else and breaking countless laws, why would they comply with this?

        @Kingu Of course, but none of the existing laws are currently being meaningfully enforced with reagards to AI companies, so adding another one to flout doesn't seem productive. 😕

              they already do.
              but there's no magical solution, it's just sooooooooo easy to bypass.
              and it will likely be just that easy for a very long time.
              i'm not just talking removing exif fields here, they also had a much more sophisticated method using invisible pixels and stuff, but it did not survive some color flattening and jpeg reencoding.

                If you are a group of three to five white cishet males in your thirties, it is mandatory to produce a podcast over a niche topic or just general talking.

                      That’s a circular oxymoron argument. People don’t believe they will sprout wings and fly, but that doesn’t mean we have a hidden set of wings. Something does not need to be real for you not to believe in something. Sadly, something does not need to be real, for you to believe either.

                            @kiana@labyrinth.zone honestly, it was very disapointing, given the place of the old arknights in the gacha landscape.
                            in the old one, the story had the center stage, and they managed to keep it coherent throughout updates. and the characters had cool designs, but they were still credible in the context of the war they were fighting.
                            the new one comes out, and no one knows where its plotline stands. Even old characters look like they are from generic family-friendly but still a bit raunchy gacha n°14340, and why the heck did they spend so much budget animating boobs?
                            i really enjoyed ex astris when it came out, and believed endfield would hold the same standard, but it seems the corpos in suit don't actually care...

                            this is just so sad...

                                            i do mind, though, that the ability to backup settings and data is paywalled.
                                            makes me not want to use it at all

cloudflare "ai" assistant :  The blog post "Why we named a service after the sounds foxes make" from Cloudflare's blog discusses the origin of the name "Zaraz" for one of their services.

Zaraz is a reference to the unique sounds made by foxes, which are often described as a loud, sharp "zara-zara-zara" or "za-za-za". The name was chosen because it is memorable, easy to pronounce, and stands out from more traditional tech naming conventions.

The post highlights the importance of naming in product development and how it can reflect the values and personality of a company. In this case, the name Zaraz represents Cloudflare's goal of creating a service that is fast, agile, and clever, much like the foxes that inspired its name.

                                                                                                                  - game in development forever

Let us take you back to around 400BCE, and a woman named Kallipateira...

                                                                                                                                  ...

                                                                                                                                  The original Olympics were distinctly men-only. Women weren't even allowed to cross the river Alpheios during the Games. The penalty was death if they dared.

                                                                                                                                  Kallipateira was a widow, and her son was boxing in the Olympics. She wanted to support him, so disguised herself as his trainer.

                                                                                                                                  Her son won, and Kallipateira was STOKED. To celebrate, she jumped over a fence to congratulate him. And in what was probably a hilariously slapstick pratfall, her clothes fell off, exposing her as a woman.

                                                                                                                                  ...

                                                                                                                                  Luckily, the story had a happy ending. Everyone was so stoked for the son and they respected her deceased husband, so they let Kallipateira live.

                                                                                                                                  But to ensure it never, never happened again and the Olympics remained free from girl cooties, a new rule was introduced: like competitors, trainers had to attend the Games naked.

In the 50s, this took the form of what was known colloquially as "nude parades". It did what it said on the tin. Women stood before someone who inspected their naked bodies.

                                                                                                                                  These tests were mandatory. If you wanted to compete, you had to show your naked body to strangers.

Women were banned from competing, shamed and humiliated and subjected to endless speculation about their bodies. Intimate medical details of women were leaked to the media, and for some athletes, even long after their careers were completed, details of their genitals would be published, taken from autopsy reports.

                                                                                                                                  This is, presumably, why it was decided it would be very inappropriate to subject a princess to such treatment.

                                                                                                                                  In the general, non-athlete population, incidence of CAIS is more like 1 in 20,000 people. So is testosterone really even that much of a performance enhancer if women who don't respond to it are overrepresented in sport? That's unclear.

I was trying to move some files from my phone to the SD card, when apparently the app crashed or got killed by Android while running in the background, and it corrupted the SD card so badly that Android completely refused to recognize it and Linux on my laptop can only read but not write it. fsck (Linux file system repair tool) finds the error, but upon trying to actually fix it (-r or -y flags) fails with an error message "failed to set VolumeDirty" and does nothing.

                                                                                                                                              Now backing up the SD card files (at least those that are newer than my last backup) on to my external hard drive, so I can reformat the SD card and hopefully fix it that way.

It just means “we are upset we didn’t get away with it” and trust has to be grained back.
