Maybe it’s time to go to the court house and change their name to Lua?

These models are mad libs machines. They just decide on the next word based on input and training. As such, there isn’t a solution to stopping hallucinations.

Proton is just a company and would always give in to legal requests and all other companies and any email provider would do the same

It’s amazing how people easily forget about lavabit and what a company that is committed to real privacy is about.

This is going to be like the self checkout lanes at the store but for creative jobs.

At the end of the day, a company will be able to produce the same output with fewer people. Some stuff will be of lower quality, just like sometimes people spend time on Lemmy and then phone in some crappy work.

We’ll, strictly speaking you could have an AI that only knows about the world up to 1928 and talks like it’s 1928.

I just hope it’s not just a way to get users then close back up the platforms once they have enough users.

How much money would they want to skim to distribute the music? 33-66 split doesn’t sound so bad considered that they don’t produce the music, sign artist, promote them, etc

They can always start their own label if they believe that vertical integration will be more profitable for them.

They tried that with podcasts and it didn’t go as planned

They decided to pay wholesale prices for electricity sold back to the grid instead of residential prices. That means that any excess power sold goes from around 33 cents to 6 cents, meaning that most people won’t see a change in their bills after installing solar because most households use power at night when there is no sun. This leads to people just not installing solar panels anymore.

This sounds like the textbook definition of a collider. Meaning that being toxic is the likely “root cause” and that toxic people are more likely to engage in political discourse (because it’s likely going to be toxic anyways? Idk) and they are more likely to comment toxic stuff in general.

The ultimate power move for Apple would be to require an iCloud+ subscription to use this service.

Why would they charge for it? If you build an app with it and want to charge for it, they will take 30% of whatever you make.
