When they killed his dog, John Wick was trigger wanting.

 

Yeah if you're gonna point out a typo at least be funny about it, like that

 

I know it's not the point, but I can't believe Shia looks like that

 

I hate when articles start with someone else’s name who is more famous (I assume that’s the case here, no idea who Matt is but I know who Sarah Hyland is) so it will get more clicks even though Sarah has nothing to do with his crime / the situation. Someone just doomscrolling could only see her name and “arrested”, “assault” and think it’s about her.

 

damn, really sucks to hear

 

really curious what an advisor role looks like in this situation. not only is it sad to see big name filmmakers want to defend something like this, but i'm not sure what sorts of advice could they even levy for a company like this making sure the technology's output produces something coherent? or do they just want endorsements from recognizable names?

 

It has been less than a year

 

“Anyone who’s been paying attention knows that AI is already ubiquitous,” added Lyonne. “It seems to me that it’s better for us as artists to help shape this revolution than find ourselves at its mercy.”

seems reasonable?

 

It's just a long way of saying she will sell out others since she is getting paid.

 

Doesn’t feel great to say it, but Morrissey is right

 

I regret to tell you the movie business is an unkind place

 

No one disputes that, but if you start an AI company in the name of using AI responsibly, but it’s still scraping data from the actual work of creatives, writers, artists, etc without credit or compensation, you’re legitimizing that practice in your field and that’s a bad thing to do and a huge part of what the strikes she was a part of were fighting against

 

No one is surprised by celebrity hypocrisy or unfair industries. making fun of them is more than fair

 

I feel you, but less so than I feel that the practice is past the question of legitimacy. AI is in so much media we interact with, all creative work is corrupted, I don’t see a means to sweep up the scrapes and give em back. Creative people will be fine and create again with more tools. It’s not the end of the world

I see see downsides, surely not all, and my preference for discord and mischief probably endears me to disorder more than many i guess, but flame on or whatever

 

another point the article makes is that they claim their software is "proprietary". even if you were to give this company the benefit of the doubt and assume all work created with their specific generative AI models only referenced work by a pre-selected group of artists who've given their consent (which i doubt is happening), it still takes a ton of time, effort, and money to build a platform like that from the ground up. you know what you could be doing instead? paying other creatives to do the same thing you want your technology to do!
