This is a statement from an AMA by the creator:

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Satire and parody are the only legitimate uses of AI

…text to speech, dictation apps, translation systems, enemies in video games, chess bots, cancer discovery, image, video and file compression, cluster algorithms, CGI, world generation, etc.?!

That statement is just ridiculous

if the majority of content ends up being AI generated

yeah…

The majority of the internet is porn. Literally. That doesn't mean that every information you look up is porn. Just because there exist much of it doesn't mean wikipedia and other credible sites will suddenly just disappear.
And honestly, while AI generated articles are absolute garbage, it's not like LLMs you can chat with are completely useless.

by opening videos you don’t like and give them a thumbs down

You don't need to do this. There literally is a feature for exactly this: Click on the three dots and on "Don't recommend". If you do this, content like that won't be recommended to you anymore.

That song in particular is a song I've heard of before, it was one of the first AI generated songs I found (and was sent around a bit because it was an early example of what ridiculous stuff one can do with AI).
You can also hear it to be honest, if you listen closely to the vocals. (Luckily you can still spot AI songs that way, I wonder how long that'll work.)

Also I looked up obscurest vinyl, and apparently all their songs are AI generated.

You can just click on the three dots and on "Do not recommend" or Don't recommend from this channel, then it will stop.

That’s literally the train I use everything I get to uni (and back).

Well, return it. While being refurbished, it doesn't necessarily need to be in perfect shape, it still needs to work as it would when you buy it originally.

The Supreme Court is upholding the rule of law. If Musk refuses to take action on the massive propaganda and disinformation campaigns that are rampant on his platform and lead to a fascist (like a literal fascist who praised the military dictatorship and openly said it's only mistake was not to torture enough) getting elected, banning it shows that the democracy is still defensive and able to protect itself.

We can't let tech monopolies just ignore any democratic rule and do whatever they want.

The actual answer is pretty simple: Donating the body to "science". Last Week Tonight recently made an entire episode about this: donating your organs and body and where it can end up (and especially in the case of donating the body, it can end up in all kinds of places).

So it's ethically as in the people donated it and were aware of giving it away, but at least most of them certainly didn't know that this is what their skulls could end up being used for.

Thanks for the nice answer. I see it the same. I can imagine this is a cultural thing, and if you have that many bad experiences with customers, I can get why you have a prejudice of someone knocking at the door, but as you said, there still are important reasons why someone might do this, and you never know their true intentions.

However, I originally didn't think that they were aware that the store is closed (I experienced the same when a store closed earlier than stated on the sign and online), in which case it's just nice to explain them. But if they knew about it and just wanted some personal acknowledgement or even trying to still get served, of course that's really awful.

(I also edited my post to make this more clear).

Hey, I edited my post. I'd appreciate if you could tell me what you think about the edit. But to summarize it, I thought that they didn't know the store is closed and tried to put myself in their shoes (in that situation it wouldn't hurt to just clarify it). Of course if they knew that the store is closed, and just wanted some personal acknowledgement, that's ridiculous. And if they wanted to push the worker to still serve them or something like that, that would have been really awful.

Some people here told awful stories about customers, and if that's the baseline, I can understand why you have a bad prejudice against someone knocking at the door. This might also be a cultural thing. But I still usually think that it's not good to ignore them (and you can never know their true intentions), there can be valid concerns (e.g. I once lost a wallet inside a store and was very grateful for the staff to help me).
