Russians would like to have Ukraine in their sphere of influence, but after bungled invasion in 2022 and subsequent grinding war, Ukrainians will go out of their way to be outside of this Russian world. I think we are talking about decades before normalization of relationship between Ukraine and Russia.

I don't find it very courteous to say that you're steelmanning someone's argument. Sutton is certainly smart enough to have steelmanned his argument himself.
Steelmanning : do it in your head, don't say it!
Great article!
It seems like the whole industry has overfitted to the System designs interviews of FAANG, thus focused on extreme scaling need that few companies actually have.
Anyone here play the RPG Dink Smallwood as a kid? There was a side quest where you hit (holy) ducks with your sword so hard that they cook: https://youtu.be/zWxXWG-U0Uo
I think the lack of friction AI has is a real problem.
AI models output is always overly confident. And when you correct them they will almost always come up with something like "Ah, you're totally right" and switch around the output (unless there are safeguards / deep research involved).
AI doesn't push back, therefore you more often than not don't second guess your own thoughts. This is, in essence, the most valuable tool in discussions with other humans.
> "We are hearing from a lot of rightsholders who are very excited for this new kind of "interactive fan fiction" and think this new kind of engagement will accrue a lot of value to them, but want the ability to specify how their characters can be used (including not at all)"
Marvelous ability to convolute the simple message "rightholders told us to fuck off"
That, and the dragon looking straight out of How to Train Your Dragon - I wonder if they have agreements with the right holders, or if they expect massive lawsuits to create free advertising for their launch.
Here is a direct example of a derived work, to the point where the prompt is "n orange-brown anthropomorphic dog sitting in a chair at a table in a room that is engulfed in flames, happy dog sitting on chair at a table viewed from the side, dog with a hat, room is burning with fire all across the room".
That's covered by Fair Use, I suppose they will argue this if they get sued. Interestingly, commons doesn't allow Fair Use, but the according to commons, "this is not a derived work".
Thank you, interesting!
I don't know that much about Fair use: if I understand well, the key is that the use should be "transformative", right? Am I correct in understanding that:
- if the original "This is fine" meme was under copyright, the dog picture would be exempted from copyright by Fair use as it's a transformation
- here it's not even needed since the original is not under copyright ("this is not a derived work")
It was a batshit insane decision, and a wrong one. Also: Commons doesn't allow for Fair Use images, so actually the decision was made that this wasn't transformative as it wasn't a derivative image.
You tell me if that was a derivative image or not. I argued it was, and the argument was completely ignored.
