I was more of talking about if the program was actually performing as advertised. Guess I could have phrased that better.
I am all for this bs AI bubble popping. Extra points for it being China who did it, since there is a bunch of American propaganda fed about how China is pure evil.
Eh, it is visible here. If people are curious about the information in this post, they will see it.
Supposedly, it is open source. So, we will find out IF it is very soon.
With the coming govt. actions starting to more directly and visibly affect people’s lives, it will probably wake up (lol) at least a few people. Assuming they are all evil will harm us more than help us. At the end of the day, we are all human. We need all the help we can get and if they are offering, it would be rude to dismiss them.
Unless they come out the gate swinging, please be careful. I don’t know about you, but I want to get as many people as possible on board with combating the far right.
Attacking somebody who is legitimately trying to learn will only entrench them deeper in their prior beliefs. It might take a few sentences to find out if they are being genuine, but if you can change their perspective, it is worth it.
PSA: IF THE TROLLS DO MIGRATE HERE, DO NOT FEED THEM. BLOCK AND REPORT IF THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN HAVING A PRODUCTIVE, CIVIL CONVERSATION.
Especially if Silksong comes out this year. I could see a board memeber pointing at it saying, “IF THAT FLAT GAME CAN MAKE A MORBILLION DOLLARS, WE CAN MAKE ONE SO FAST AND GET SO MUCH MONEY!”
We bouta get space factories before affordable housing.
I’ll miss Concord.
The big issue is the US trying to ban Tiktok explicity for “national security” without showing the public a shred of evidence. What do you call it when China blocks access to an American app because of “national security”?
Please read the article.
Lawmakers and the White House have justified the crackdown on TikTok by claiming the app’s link to Beijing makes it a national security threat. But supporters of a ban have not offered direct evidence of the Chinese government ever attempting to obtain data from the company, nor any proof that authorities there have ever influenced content on the platform used by 170 million Americans.
No, if you eat their food you “Nut Now”.
This article from 2024 gives a pretty good rundown as to why using this reasoning to ban Tiktok will set a very bad precedent:
If the govt cared about your data privacy, they would create data collection regulations that they could then use to ban tiktok if/when they violate them.
“Too big to fail” = “We cannot give real concequences for bad actions, but we can take a cut after the fact in the form of a weak ass fee.”
But are you diagnosed with microplastics?
I mean, the message of your meme is calling out people who have these biases. I am not surprised those people jumped to defend them.
