I mean yeah absolutely protest your bosses unethical behavior but don't be surprised if they then kick you out. But that's good, more media coverage for your stated goal.

They said the same when the crypto hype came along. If AI dies off there will be other trends in computing that require cutting edge silicon. AI may or may not continue surging but hardware will be needed no matter what. NVIDIA is selling shovels, not panning for gold.

The register is a tech magazine, so the DIY/3D printed angle is relevant here. It's also relevant because it would, at least to some degree, allow someone to build it themselves in places where perhaps the legality of self determination is questionable. The Register is not a place where you'll normally find unnecessary clickbait headlines.

So it's not a problem with AI. It's just a problem for some mayfly companies that try to profit from the latest trend?

My lukewarm take is that all this hate on AI is really just hating on big companies trying to squeeze money out of some new development. AI (or rather LLMs) are not the problem.

All music is derivative. And if you think the best vocalists or musicians should be the most popular I may have some shocking news for you. The idea that American pop stars are authentic is pretty funny.

Yeah Korean pop idol culture has some extremely toxic elements to it, but so does American celebrity culture. I don't get the feeling that's what's bothering you though.

We do this in Ruby all the time, we just prefer methods over variables, usually.

This one paid off. Read the interviews given by mr Arbaugh. Musk is an ego-driven maniac, you won't get any argument from me. But as a result a bunch of scientists got more funding than they normally would for this project that gave great joy and some measure of independence to a young quadriplegic, maybe with more to follow.

You want to hate on Musk? I'll happily join you. But if you're one of those assholes rooting against these doctors and scientists doing ground breaking work with Musk's money, that's a pretty terrible take.

Might be an unpopular take but.. maybe being good at high school math tests is not really such an important gift in the real world.

Because we all decided that shit and free is better than good and paid

Why would you ask a bot to generate a stereotypical image and then be surprised it generates a stereotypical image. If you give it a simplistic prompt it will come up with a simplistic response.

I was under the impression that bloodletting could in some cases actually be beneficial.
