This is definitely the type that grants wishes.

But the people making money off of all of that are mad now, hence this article.

You can’t be sued over or copyright styles. Studio Ponoc is made up of ex-Ghibli staff, and they have been releasing moves for a while. Stop spreading misinformation.

Microsoft is wasting their money on this.

The dream is dead.

This doesn’t mean you can misrepresent facts like this though. The line I quoted is misinformation, and you don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m not trying to sound so aggressive, but it’s the only way I can phrase it.

Generating an AI voice to speak the lines increases that energy cost exponentially.

TTS models are tiny in comparison to LLMs. How does this track? The biggest I could find was Orpheus-TTS that comes in 3B/1B/400M/150M parameter sizes. And they are not using a 600 billion parameter LLM to generate the text for Vader’s responses, that is likely way too big. After generating the text, speech isn’t even a drop in the bucket.

You need to include parameter counts in your calculations. A lot of these assumptions are so wrong it borders on misinformation.

30B means the model is 30 billion parameters, basically how big the model is. MoE means it’s a Mixture of Experts. A mixture of Experts model is a team of smaller models that work together to process tasks. In the case of an MoE model, the 30B stands for the total parameters of the whole team. For example, Qwen3-30B-A3B’s parameter total is split between 16 checkpoints.

Did someone dare you to do it?

So you don’t interact with AI stuff outside of that? Have you seen any cool research papers or messed with any local models recently? Getting a bit of experience with the stuff can help you better inform people and see through the more bogus headlines.

It definitely seems that way depending on what media you choose to consume. You should try to balance the doomer scroll with actual research and open source news.

Ok, but is training an AI so it can plagiarize, often verbatim or with extreme visual accuracy, fair use? I see the 2 first articles argue that it is, but they don’t mention the many cases where the crawlers and scrappers ignored rules set up to tell them to piss off. That would certainly invalidate several cases of fair use

You can plagiarize with a computer with copy & paste too. That doesn’t change the fact that computers have legitimate non-infringing use cases.

Instead of charging for everything they scrap, law should force them to release all their data and training sets for free.

I agree

I’d wager 99.9% of the art and content created by AI could go straight to the trashcan and nobody would miss it. Comparing AI to the internet is like comparing writing to doing drugs.

But 99.9% of the internet is stuff that no one would miss. Things don’t have to have value to you to be worth having around. That trash could serve as inspiration for your 0.1% of people or garner feedback for people to improve.

But the law is largely the reverse. It only denies use of copyright works in certain ways. Using things “without permission” forms the bedrock on which artistic expression and free speech are built upon.

AI training isn’t only for mega-corporations. Setting up barriers like these only benefit the ultra-wealthy and will end with corporations gaining a monopoly of a public technology by making it prohibitively expensive and cumbersome for regular folks. What the people writing this article want would mean the end of open access to competitive, corporate-independent tools and would jeopardize research, reviews, reverse engineering, and even indexing information. They want you to believe that analyzing things without permission somehow goes against copyright, when in reality, fair use is a part of copyright law, and the reason our discourse isn’t wholly controlled by mega-corporations and the rich.

I recommend reading this article by Kit Walsh, and this one by Tory Noble staff attorneys at the EFF, this one by Katherine Klosek, the director of information policy and federal relations at the Association of Research Libraries, and these two by Cory Doctorow.

Hail Satan.

I recommend Bakemono no Ko.

Is she on vacation on the Destiny Islands?

Aluminum sulfate in the bread, anti-freeze in the wine, and chalk in the milk.

Is this a Program Advance BTW?

Pure unadulterated capitalism means adulterated bread, wine, and milk.
