Yes, they should step in, and direct those parents not the rest of society that isn’t a failure to their children. Maybe letting your children engage in pornographic material should be against the law, not the porn that any reasonable person can consume without involving children.

Maybe if you aren’t fit to care for your children, you shouldn’t be allowed to have them.

The world isn’t made for children, where are their fucking parents?

Hadn’t used it for a couple of years, I went back there shortly after the whole Rhode v Wade debacle in the US and the place was a cesspool, the forums were horrendous. I actually went and wiped my account because I didn’t want to be tempted to go back.

Also all the old artist resources and community made stuff that I used to be part of was either inaccessible, unfindable, or just wasn’t catered to anymore.

And yet they still are. And yet you still complain that they still are. And yet you whinge that they aren’t elsewhere.

If twitter is dead then why are you still talking about it?

People go where the people are. The people are still on twitter.

Can’t speak for the rest but deviantart turned into a free speech absolutist shithole that caters to racists and bigots, no different to twitter.

Exactly, how is the end result not that of the user if they need to craft and modify and adjust and manipulate the prompts inputs and outputs of ai to produce something new or coherent?

It’s just a tool. A tool that will improve access to human knowledge and improve each individuals ability to create and produce more complex works with less effort. Each of which will feed back into the algorithm expanding the knowledge and capacity of ai and human ingenuity.

Information has always been free if you look hard enough. With the advent of the internet, you’re able to connect with people who possess this information and you’re likely to find it for free on YouTube or other websites.

And with the advent of AI we no longer have to look hard.

We’re not talking about perceptions as in making an AI literally perceive anything. I can feed you prompts and ideas of my own and get an output no different than if I was using AI tools, the difference being ai tools have already gathered the collective knowledge you’d get from say doing a course in photoshop, taking an art class, reading an encyclopaedia or a novel, going to school for music theory, etc.

Yes, it’s wonderful. Knowledge might finally become free in the advent of AI tools and we might finally see the death of the copyright system. Oh how we can dream.

The ai does have perceptions, fed into by us as inputs. I give the ai my perceptions, the ai creates a facsimile, and I adjust the perceptions I feed into the ai until I receive an output that meets the needs of my requirements, no different from doing it myself except I didn’t need to read all the books, and learn all the lessons myself. I still tailor the end product, just not to the same micro scale that we needed to traditionally.

I can read a copy written work and create a work from the experience and knowledge gained. At what point is what I’m doing any different to the A.I.?
