You're giving them money and engagement with which to continue. Having your eyes on that content and then returning the next day to see more is explicit approval of that content. And having those ads served to you makes Elon money which he then uses to serve more ads to everyone.
Essentially, visiting X is paying Elon real dollars directly and telling him thank you for the propaganda, may I please have another
There is absolutely no situation in which I would be okay with one of these people being in a leadership position. They've proven that they can't be bothered to do the basic citizen's duty of caring about politics enough to cast a vote at all, and you want to put them in charge of operating the government? No.
Foreign money in US elections used to be illegal. A law that isn't getting enforced isn't a real law.
You say : the type is dynamic
We hear : the type is imaginary
Genuinely curious how long you could continue getting people to sink advertising dollars into the bot playground. If he played it smart I bet he could get a solid decade or so of people paying to show ads to AIs without telling them all the people are gone. Maybe longer, if he's really smart and actually tells them for real that there's no people in there but that their marketing materials will be incorporated into the AI in/output.
Sure would be a shame if someone pointed a big fuck-off electromagnet in that direction eh
Because when you get pissed off at one shitty video and click off it to find a better one, that's free real estate in which to double your ads.
And what are you gonna do? Go to Peertube? YouTube is too gigantic to have a real competitor no matter how much we try. It is a beast so massive and bloated at this point that we just can't kill it without legislative interference. And Google knows damn well that they're basically the only game in town so they aren't afraid of significant user backlash.
I catch myself using "GG" in real life all the time, it's just become part of the local parlance in my gaming group. Usually it comes out as part of "RIP GG", basically, good try but we're cooked.
Yep. Spin up your own website and throw a couple YouTube ads out into the world. We'll have legislation drafted making this illegal before your first server bill comes due.
I mean, yeah it might have been, not because that makes it okay but because of a lack of attention on the subject. Then again he also might have gotten sued after the fact like Trump with his campaign trail music he keeps using without permission.
However, Elon did ask first, and was met with the response of "no, we absolutely do not want our product associated with you or your business in any fashion." So he then carried on to create a barely legally distinct derivative which easily calls to mind the iconic scene in question, and then name drop Blade Runner in the accompanying speech.
Imagine for a moment, you write Bill Gates and ask him if you can use his likeness for advertisement. He tells you no, absolutely not, go kick rocks. So instead you have your local AI whip you up a character - Bull Gotes, a thin, white haired, elderly, bespectacled Caucasian man who made a lot of money on his computers, which he calls Macrosoft. This might be permissible as parody, but I don't think you're going to win a court case if you use it in business advertising and Bill decides he has something to say about it.
Has Temu ever had their act together from the beginning?
I always got the impression it was the Wish.com version of Wish.com
How is it that you, me, everybody, everybody's cousin, and also the FBI were all fully aware that Trump & Co were guaranteed going to try and cheat the election, and yet the first moment all the republican electors come out and say "Yep Trump wins!! We promise!!" everyone is just accepting this as fact?
I have severe doubts about the validity of these numbers for at least the next several weeks. Republicans have proven repeatedly that they are not going to play fair in any fashion. I don't believe a damn thing they tell me without receipts for it and we've got until January to produce the receipts.
