I’m not even steeped in the depths of it. I’ve got friends who are using MCP and agents that can modify files on their own and work through problems over time and self-learn on your existing code, etc.

It’s crazy and makes my head spin. Many of them were super skeptical early on but the tools that are being developed are absolutely BONKERS.

No AI developer presents it like it’s static and in its final form. None. Not one of them. They are all racing for market share. We’re seeing leaps and bounds of improvements in the shortest of timeframes, even in the open source sector.

And this zealotry doesn’t even take into account that…humans make mistakes too. Much more than AI generates ‘slop’, there are a million garbage artists out there that produce complete trash. There are millions of people on the internet generating bad advice (Where’s Mankrik’s wife?).

I’ve seen people with this same attitude, attribute things incorrectly to AI slop because someone used an em-dash somewhere in their reply. So not only can’t the detractors actually tell what’s AI or not, their fundamentalist attitudes lead them to perceive every mistake as “AI SLOP”.

Mobile users are a cancer.

Have you seen how far it’s come in just a few short months though? It’s incredible the pace they’ve been achieving.

That one is a pedophile and sexual predator too, so nah.

Joke’s on you, I was already stupid to begin with.

If you continue going to the buffet with shit, that’s on you. There are plenty of them without shit. You’re just a vegan luddite at this point. You don’t wanna eat animals, so you expect everyone around you to also not eat animals because it’s against your beliefs.

Sorry. Not how the world works. AI is here to stay because it’s useful to people. Whine and bitch and moan all you want, it’s not going away.

You have the ability to choose an insurance company that doesn’t use those things. Hell, you even have the ability to self-insure in most states with enough collateral. Nothing is being forced on you. Hell - you EVEN have the ability to hire an in-person insurance agent – did you know that?

Sure, it’s not as cheap - but you’ve always been able to do this. You are not being forced like you claim, your own ignorance is what betrays you to the options you have available.

And what other people do with their ingestion of AI is their business, not yours.

Without AI, all of the things you say they are doing WITH AI were already possible. They could ALREADY spy on employees. They could ALREADY lie and manipulate people. All AI does is make it happen on a wider scale.

So instead of attacking “AI” “AI” “AI”…why not attack the things that are being done wrong, rather than the fact that it’s AI?

Nobody is forcing you to do anything by their use of AI. You don’t have a right to TikTok not having things made with AI because you have the freedom to simply not use TikTok. Just as an example.

No, because you use the uppermost-bound of the statement. Your opinion doesn’t take precident as the opinion above it (polluting the river) already violates the rights of others. Your opinion literally is the same as mine. That the person polluting the river (their opinion being they can) - shouldn’t be able to use that opinion to affect others. You’re saying the same as I am, but focused on the wrong part.

Like with religion – You’re free to believe whatever you want to believe. That you’re not allowed to have abortions, etc.

But the moment YOUR belief, says that I can’t have an abortion, is when it becomes invalid, because it’s not MY belief. I don’t have to abide by YOUR belief/opinion on the matter. Your opinions don’t dictate my actions.

Now, you can control your actions - by, say - not buying from me. You control your actions, so while you can’t force companies not to AI, there’s nothing forcing you to buy from them when you are aware of its use. You can’t stop them from using it because you don’t like it though. Your opinion of it being good/bad, or if they can/should/shouldn’t use it matters absolutely none.

Yeah, that’s what I thought.

Is that because you can’t pinpoint it yourself? There’s a reason that you can’t. It’s because no contradiction exists.

Have you thought about this for more than 2 seconds?

Have YOU? - Your example is clearly them violating the rights of others. This isn’t some paradox point of view or the “got ya!” moment that you think it is.

Oh no, people are assaulting me with their different opinions!

No - you can’t say no. People have a right to use AI in their productions, and your opinion cannot force them to do otherwise.

As with anything - the moment your opinion starts to dictate other people’s lives, it becomes invalid.

As is their right. His estate, or him personally, doesn’t matter.

If JEJ granted voice rights, then that’s peachy. Nobody owes someone else that job. Sounds like JEJ locked it down.

The idea that actors are required to be hired is kind of nonsense. Every industry has had to deal with less people required to produce the same amount of output. At this point, JEJ voice of Darth Vader IS Darth Vader. I can understand the studio wanting to retain that. Replacing voice actors is often jarring for the viewer.

Did they train something on an actors voice, or use the actors voice recordings without contractual permission?

OR:

Did they use an AI voice and some filters to make the character talk without hiring an actor?

Because if it’s the second, who cares? If it’s the first, they should be raked over the coals.

There was that one guy who got charged $60k in late fees at blockbuster though.
