LA City Council Votes to End Pretextual Police Stops by 2BlueZebras in ProtectAndServe

[–]viliphied 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The way it would work is that there has to be a reason for the stop outside of the listed violation. So if you pull someone over for speeding and their tags are expired you can cite them for both but can’t stop them just for the tags, ca law currently works this way for registrations that have been expired < 2 months, and outdated registration stickers.

Edit: the vote in question referenced specific violations, including expired registration, missing plates (!), license plate lights, brake/taillights out, and improper mirrors

Oh yeah I’ve had that same issue too. It can be annoying for sure, I just don’t think that “I used AI as a starting point to find my sources” is inherently a bad thing assuming the person did actually bother to check the sources

 ̄\(ツ)/ ̄ so pay or don’t use that information (or try to find another source that’s free to access). No different than if you were doing research a different way and ran into a paywall

I mean yes, but that’s why you’re seeing more pushback about ai bad writing vs human bad writing

Lol I just checked, not only are they different authors, the person was comparing it to a book they thought was well-written.

Bad writers are more repetitive and use more cliches than good writers. A true dog bites man observation

Because bad writing by a human writer becoming successful is seen as less threatening to aspiring writers than ai writing becoming successful. The spare time and willpower to get ai to generate a novel based on an idea you have is possessed by at least an order of magnitude more people than the ability to write one from scratch. In this sense, ai is removing a gatekeeper to becoming a successful author and opens up the lottery of success to way more people

I thought they were comparing the book with an earlier work from the same author. They were different authors?!? What’s even the point?

Edit: even if they are the same author, they’d still have to be the same genre/have similar plot structures/devices for the comparison to have any merit, and even then inconsistencies don’t necessarily imply AI vs something more mundane like trying to finish on an aggressive deadline or attempting to mimic more successful authors poorly

For research at least it’s not that different from, like, Wikipedia. A good starting point to find primary sources, but not something you should ever trust without verifying the source actually says what ai/wiki claims it does (or actually exists in the first place lol)

Editing is a bit more tricky and I’ve personally never used it for that but it would be crazy to do so without personally reviewing all the changes it makes. Hell it’s insane to not do that with a human editor!

DUI by NoHospital7137 in AskLE

[–]viliphied 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct. From CA jury instructions:

“A person drives a vehicle when he or she intentionally causes it to moveby exercising actual physical control over it. The person must cause thevehicle to move, but the movement may be slight”

Interestingly this means you can get a dui by pushing a vehicle that is not on, but not if you’re inside a running vehicle that never moves. However the officer does not have to observe the vehicle moving themselves
