This is interesting. It seems a fair resolution would be to pay the content owner what they would have made in ad revenue.
As long as the AI is not reproducing original works to the extent that it violates fair use, I don't think copyright laws really apply. But there's definitely lost revenue.
While I am generally in the "copyright doesn't matter when it comes to AI" camp, I also work in advertising. Most people do not use ad blockers.
This is an interesting point that I haven't previously considered.
The cost is too high? Seriously?
You're not paying anything for the service. You have no concept of what their costs are. You're mildly inconvenienced by some annoying and slightly obtrusive ads.
It's a business, not a charity. And they owe you nothing.
Sponsored search placements haven't really changed. Most ads are run through AdWords which are found across the web and on mobile apps. Even this post is about ads run within videos. Thus unrelated to search.
Yeah, completely agree. But this is also Lemmy. The majority of users are either a communist or almost a communist. And usually have a pretty bad understanding of what that even entails. Generally they just want everything to be free or paid for by someone else.
Who do you expect to pay for it?
Always was. How tf do you think they make money
So many people in this comment section are pissed that YouTube isn't both free and ad-free. It's mind blowing.
Yes, YouTube is a business and exists to generate revenue.
It's definitely written by someone who's never used a VR headset. It only takes a second to realize that these screens are nowhere near the resolution of your eye. Ya know, cause small text that would be easily read on my phone is blurry as fuck on a VR headset
More likely, the price changed between screenshots.
We don't know what the price is on the left.
No. The manufacturer has a minimum advertised pricing policy in place. Amazon has the item priced below this point. So they can only display the price after it's been added to the cart.
Hackers like to glitch other users. Randomly turn into a toilet, have all of your ammunition disappear, suddenly fly into the air and die on impact. It made public servers unplayable. Friends only sessions were necessary
