The terrifying part to me is that cops across the nation have a long history of seeing that the tech they want to use is unreliable and based on junky science, but they still push it through anyway. Aren’t police dogs about as reliable as a coin-flip when their handlers aren’t nipping at their neck to get them to jump at anything? They don’t care if it’s right as long as they can use it to justify their behavior, so they make it policy.
I still have yet to argue in favor of more copyright, I don’t know why you’re still arguing against something we both agreed was bad, but this is the first time in a while I’ve heard UBI called radical in the face of capitalism, I don’t think it gets at the root of the problem of capitalism or of the smaller AI vs artist problem as I’ve explained previously. The relations of production and profit don’t budge an inch. I’ve also never said I oppose UBI though, in fact I said if it helps keep people fed and sheltered that’s great. I just see it as a stopgap ‘solution’ that will buy time and comfort until the market adapts on how to recuperate that money since it can expect every citizen to get that every month, I don’t trust a free market not to ruin that. Furthermore specifically in the face of AI versus artists, the consequences are already happening and the push at a political level for UBI is lower than when Andrew Yang was running, and since the political level is where UBI would have to come from, I don’t like the idea of not trying anything else until then.
Because the western world has no other framework for intellectual property other than copyright claims, and the people who write the laws and discuss the solutions are the people already at the top who have property to protect. If copyright in it’s entirety disappeared tomorrow with nothing in it’s stead the very first people to lose and lose the most will be the small artists, because there’s nothing to stop people or companies with massive resource pools just steamrolling over them, in fact I can’t see that move(eliminating all copyright) doing anything but accelerating a monopoly forming to whichever company can steal and distribute art the best. My best guess says if you try to solve that problem you’ll find solutions that will at least alleviate the AI problem for smaller creators. But again I don’t know what you’re expecting of me, If I had the regulation all figured out, I probably wouldn’t just be jawing about it on Lemmy, and you yourself said you cannot figure it out and it’s related to your field. Because right now like you said, more copyright will slowly strangle creators, and like I just said no copyright will let them be steamrolled over by anyone who can sell or distribute it for a lower price than them. UBI make sure the artist doesn’t die. Great honestly, better than just letting people drop, but if all the artists work can simply be stolen for profit by those that didn’t make it, and they have to subsist on the payments everyone gets, then there’s really no such thing as an artist in terms of vocation anymore, nor would there be enough opportunities to profit from your own artistic work. I don’t know the solution any more than you do, but to me I don’t think UBI is good enough because I believe being an artist is labor worth being paid for. I think we need something targeted at the AI problem, not something reactionary, and not something necessarily targeting the AI itself, perhaps targeting the relationship between people who create art, people who distribute it, and people who profit from it, since often times those aren’t all the same person.
My arguement is not limited to the only regulations being currently talked about any more than your arguement is limited by what types of UBI are currently talked about because im not hearing any talk on UBI.
Isnt forcing a copyleft licence exactly a regulation that would be sensible though? So why wouldn’t regulations and legislation work if thats your solution too?
Why does legislation or regulation surrounding AI necessarily have to be copyright maxamilism but UBI regulations are somehow in some undescribed way going to be strong enough to prevent lobbying from the people who still control the mean of production? You’re arguement gets to use the magic regulations that don’t get challenged or changed, but my arguement is stuck to the one mainstream idea that has people worried?
UBI is a bandaid that doesn’t solve the core issues of production under capitalism, the people with capital still control production, still make more money than eveyone else and still have more money and power to use influencing the politicians that write the laws surrounding UBI. And expecting me to solve the AI problem in a comment section is like me asking you to implement UBI in a way that landlords dont just jack up rent or business dont inflate prices with more cash and demand floating around, also whats your plan for when the level of UBI legislated , or planned increases in UBI is no longer sufficient enough to pay for housing food and other necessities? What do you do to counter the fact that the capitists still have more access to politicians and media empires they can use to discredit and remove UBI?
Sure but lets say you try to solve this problem. What’s the first thing you think a coordinated group could do, get sensible regulations about AI, or overthrow global capitalism. Its framed the way it is because unless you want ro revolt that’s the framework we’re gonna have to use to deal with it. I suppose we could alwyas do nothing to AI specifically and focus on just overthrowing capitalism, but during that time lots of harm will come to lots of workers because of AI use. I dont think anticapitalism has reached a critical mass (we need this for any real sustem wide attacks on and alternatives to capitalism) so I think dealing with this AI problem and trying to let everyone else know about how it’s really a capitalism thing would do more to build support and avert harm to workers. I hate that its like that too but those choices are basically the real options we have moving forward from my pov.
That would be a great anti trust suit if the US actually enforced anti trust laws, but they don’t. If you’re not already a dominant semi-monopoly, you can buy and do whatever honestly.
I dislike both Tesla and Musk but as an automotive company I’d wager they have good safety factors on at least most of their engineering, so for example in the name of keeping the battery from degrading too fast the tesla probably stops drawing power from the battery when the battery voltage drops to a certian number. The safety factor just means that the number it shuts off at is likely a good bit before the batrery would theoretically start to take damage.
I can’t find any other reason they would intentionally keep range off the product, because its not like they selling a solution to it. So I assume they probably just lowered the voltage at which the Tesla stops drawing power because getting stuck in the hurricane was obviously more dangerous. I could be wrong though, this is just from my expirences with bateries in engineering applications.
I still think he used Russian bot farms to help hype his pump and dump, which would explain why the dude has had corespondences with Putin. Then he buys twitter under the guise of getting rid of the bots. Honestly if you look at it like that him paying 44 billion to destroy a company makes sense.
Lmfao the absolute ego on that guy is something to marvel.
Let it keep learning from random internet posts, Im sure it will get better that way.
I knew of someone who had this but refused to acknowledge it and instead assumed that god was talking to them.
Hard to disagree with saying paying a human like 200 dollars once so a corporation can use their likeness forever, however they want, and keep all the money is unfair.
Every time those bastards see a small opening they take it.
You’re never gonna fix them by denying they have problems, welcome, that’s how we got to this conversation.
The US basically has no antitrust laws anymore huh?
Blizzard being horrifically bad at managing their business has no bearing on market share or monopoly building. That’s not suddenly okay because the last guy was an asshole.
Wonder if theres a neurological link between dominant hand, or maybe theres still social pressures kids feel to be right handed and us on the spectrum just don’t really feel that, the same way a lot of us seem to be less effected by peer pressure.
