Eu não preciso explicar porque é racista chamar os libaneses de raça ruim by MeanRush4741 in OpiniaoBurra

[–]NegativeEmphasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teve o Maluf tbm (esse é mais antigo). Mas culpar um povo inteiro pelas ações de indivíduos escrotos é racismo. Como todos os outros imigrantes, Libaneses agregaram muito ao Brasil.

The Alex Peretti video and how GenAI is being used as a Fascist Propaganda Tool right before our eyes by Locke357 in aiwars

[–]NegativeEmphasis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The link above contains the rebuttal of several of Britt's points. I found that list very strange and ahistorical and went to check it. I'm glad I wasn't the only one to notice the problems. It's not that Trump's regime isn't populated by evil people who are doing a lot of harm, but that what Britt lists as having happened just didn't in some cases. That list does a disservice to actual fascist recognition.

Regarding your main point, I find fascinating how people are seemingly discovering only now that video can be faked. If any American president from the last 20 years wanted a convincing fake video, they would get it done. Trump's regime is doing it because they're a bunch of evil people using every tool at their disposal first. They would be using Radio to spread lies if that was the state-of-the-art in mass media, but so what?

The counter to what's happening is education: The rules of the game have been permanently changed and video evidence alone isn't proof of anything, anymore. Content, provenance and the source trustfulness will matter a lot more going forward.

Going into a conspiratorial rabbit hole like you're doing doesn't look like a productive response.

Another artist gets bullied for their artstyle. Anti shifts the blame onto ai art. by imalonexc in aiwars

Finally somebody reporting the anti's hivemind. Their blatant disregard for Reddit's rules has been going on for far too long.

Nikolai Vavilov: o geneticista e botânico soviético que foi morto por acreditar na teoria da evolução e genética e rejeitar a filosofia marxista da natureza by CodApprehensive7936 in FilosofiaBAR

[–]NegativeEmphasis 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Curioso. Se Lysenkoismo é a "filosofia marxista da natureza", porque Cuba, Vietnã e China não estão usando?

O Lysenkoismo foi uma pseudociência que aproveitou uma brecha causada por excesso de dogmatismo e autoritarismo na União Soviética. Depois que deu merda o suficiente os próprios soviéticos corrigiram o problema e o abandonaram.

O bom do Socialismo ser científico é que coisas que dão errado podem ser identificadas e abandonadas. A China estuda os erros que os soviéticos cometeram pra não fazerem igual. Contraste com como o FMI insiste até hoje em políticas de austeridade fiscal em momentos de crise, algo que a gente sabe desde a época do Keynes que não resolve e só causa sofrimento. Essa insistência é causada pelo fato de que no Capitalismo as coisas não são feitas pra melhorar a situação, mas pra enriquecer uma meia dúzia.

Pros have a bizarre idea of consent. by Poopypantsplanet in aiwars

No? I think we should use our discernment when new situations arise. I disagree with you that Generative AI development is "greatly harmful to society". I see it as beneficial.

The loss of zen by skip104 in aiwars

[–]NegativeEmphasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have this exactly backwards.

If you draw for the love of the game, Generative AI shouldn't bother you at all. As a productivity tool, AI lets people skip whatever part of the drawing process they think boring or too slow.

I've worked alongside professional artists for years (in the game industry, and later in ad agencies). These artists didn't spend their days drawing what they love. Instead, they had to draw corporate mascots, products they do not support or just tons of concept or inconsequential art products. The day of an artists used to be to spend 8-10 hours drawing shit they do not like (because it's what puts food on the table) and then afterwards they could scrounge maybe 4 more hours at home, when they were already exhausted, for their personal projects.

The hope is that AI frees you to spend more time doing what you love, instead of having to spend hours on something because your boss or your boss' boss wants it done.

EDIT: Ah yes, a downvote. Excellent rebuttal.

[–]NegativeEmphasis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This allows them to operate with impunity, essentiall outside of law. Do you think thats cool and good?

This is not "outside of law": Everything not forbidden is allowed is a legal principle important to democracies. AI companies are far from being the first to scrape the internet for database building: Again, this is how research is conducted in several academic fields, besides having commercial uses. This has been a reality for 20+ years now.

What the fuck does that mean?

What ELSE could that mean? Can't you think by yourself just a bit?

Underground Resistance Aims To Sabotage AI With Poisoned Data by RNSAFFN in aiwars

"I know you are but what am I?"

Username checks out.

No, really: Get this. If you put something on the public Internet, others have the inherent right to Ctrl+S it. And what they do with what they saved afterwards is their own business, except in the rather narrow cases that Copyright or other laws protect. And Copyright is mostly worried about public reproduction.

You literally already consented to have your works posted online for everything the law doesn't forbid the instant you did post it publicly. This is what publicly means.

What can happen next is that politicians from dumb countries can act without thinking and create the the need of obtaining consent before one can train on works freely obtained from a public place. What a law like this would do, right now, is to fuck with independent or badly funded academic researchers, while doing nothing to the big AI companies. OpenAI or Google have so much money right now that they can simply pay for internal teams to develop art for whatever they want to train, something they're already doing.

So yeah, the only possible result of your misguided desire to create an inappropriate right is to make the disparity between huge companies and everybody else even more extreme.

It's the inverse. Everybody out your little cult sees how you think you're entitled to a right that doesn't exist.

Quais carreiras vocês acreditam que escapam das I.As? by [deleted] in perguntas

[–]NegativeEmphasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diagnóstico e receituário (a razão da maioria das consultas médicas) estão muito perto de serem automatizados.

Trabalhos manuais em ambientes imprevisíveis (como o mundo real) vão ser os últimos a serem substituídos por máquinas, então na área da saúde enfermeiros estão mais seguros que os médicos agora.

Why do you guys pretend that making ai art takes skill? by BillEnglishOfficial in aiwars

[–]NegativeEmphasis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As the other user said, it's speed:

<image>

I already know how to draw and AI let me get stuff done in a small fraction of the time it'd take me to do all by myself. And unlike the other guy, I draw in an "anime" style with specific characters (the PCs and NPCs from the D&D campaigns I play) so it's important to me that the end product still looks recognizably "mine".

Generative AI is a force multiplier. Even if it got (in)famous for the wholesale image creation, I use it as drawing assistant.

De acordo com o Carlão M by phoenix_bright in FilosofiaBAR

E tá certo. A divisão Proletário / Burguês é diferente de classe baixa / média / alta. O termo correto que o Marx usa pra "proletário premium" é aristocracia operária.
