Sony is probably working on a music generator as we speak. So it’s not like Sony vs AI but Sony AI Monopoly vs Diverse AI ecosystem including FOSS.

I also consider the data stolen in either case, since Sony isn’t going to give a dime more to their artists when they either sell the data or come out with their own software. Actually, if everyone owns it and can use it to train, I see it more as sharing tbh.

I guess I might be bias, I hate these fat cat companies trying to strangle new tech so we have to lick their boots while using it.

If copyrights apply, only you and stack own the data. You can opt out but 99% of users don’t. No users get any money. Google or Microsoft buys stack so only they can use the data. We only get subscription based AI, open source dies.

If copyrights don’t apply, everyone owns the data. The users still don’t get any money but they get free open source AI built off their work instead of closed source AI built off their work.

Having the website have copyright of the content in the context of AI training would be a fucking disaster.

Sony and 4 other companies basically own all music. If they can opt out, it gives them a defacto monopoly on any music generators. The AI music is still going to come and artists aren’t getting a dime either way except maybe some big names that don’t need the money anyways.

There is nothing to be gained from taking Sony’s side here. Sony is a pos company that exploits all the artists under it. It will exploit it’s data to create more profit through AI, without paying them.

Its either open source AI anyone can run at home or closed source AI that only a few companies can legally run, offered with a hefty subscription fee and censorship.

I’m only replying because you were asking me to translate it and talking about variables. You aren’t making much sense yourself and I was asking you to specify specifically because I’m not going to rewrite his whole post lol.

What part needs translating? What is it that you find hard to understand?

I think you need to make a special request to get that level of deletion that comes with gdpr. I’m not certain, I just remember other users specifically talking about how you need to send them an email so they have to comply.

I also wouldn’t be surprised if their dataset is mostly stripped of user names to get around GDPR though I’m no expert.

All that to say I’d be very very surprised if they deleted comments in their dataset.

Very valid point of devaluating the user experience thought, especially when you take into account google searches. I’m sure they have already fallen off compared to a year ago where reddit would pop up half the time no matter what you searched.

Tbh, it’s going to be a lot cheaper and easier to use computer vision with regular 20$ webcams.

The only advantage I can see is for the elderly as a warning system, since certain changes in body temp are a precursor to health problems.

This is an awesome product outside of home automation though.

Why not?

I want to have fun generating my own shows and movies eventually. Just for my own fun. You can literally just not use it.

What part don’t you understand?

Each time this pops up, there is a rush of people saying to delete or edit your comments.

They have a database of your comments and all your edits. Its easy to see when you mass delete or edit them. Anything done past a certain point in time, especially all at once, is automatically reverted.

By deleting and editing, you are taking the data away from scrappers making the dataset they are selling actually unique and more valuable.

Its the equivalent of putting his hands on his ears and screaming childish babbling to drown you out.

They are being difficult, it’s quite clear what happened.

Anyways, no matter how vague you are, it isn’t normal to think the email is the thing that needs sending when the email chain itself is about sending out a product.

Sounds like he has some form of dyslexia. Best thing to do is be as clear as you can with him and expect him to take things very literally. Its a tough line to walk though since it’s easy to come off as patronizing and have him feel insulted.

This particular model isn’t on there yet but ollama is pretty user friendly if you have a bit of experience using a command line interface.

Lmstudio has a better UI but is quite a bit slower.

With right-wing leaning people not favoring regulation.

Do you want to explain why you think this? It seems very reductive, basically saying anyone that doesn’t agree with you is an idiot.

I’m very left leaning and against regulation because it will only serve big companies by killing the open source scene.

The bigger defining factor seems to be tech literacy and not political alignment.

They don’t want them to, they want you to keep using gas.

Every car manufacturer receives massive subsidies no matter where they are located.

This is oil money, nothing more, nothing less.

And the government just realized this now and are going to make it clear it isn’t okay by fucking up any export out of China that has the word green in it.

Nothing to do with oil money folks, just China got caught red handed and we just weren’t looking before. Yes, you can still keep your iPhone but fuck your solar panels and any car that doesn’t crave gasoline.

That’s true and all but this decision is solely about oil barons and their fat fucking profits.

Its no coincidence that they are going after electric cars and solar panels. Chinese workers have had it rough for 30 years but green tech is where we draw the line and not literally everything else, who believes this?

Its not to protect the economy, it’s not to protect the Chinese workers.

This is only about oil profits.

What we call a bear these days isn’t a bear.

Because languages change over time and words take on new different meanings.

That’s fine but like you said, nothing else is being targeted. Out of all the products, they specifically target the ones leading to a greener, less oil dependant society.

You were asking why it’s being targeted and it’s specifically not because they are ignoring labor rights, worker safety or environmental protections.
