Why the Training of Generative AI Models Is a Violation of Copyright Law
  • Thought experiment: What if it an extremely intelligent person memorised every Metallica song on a free Spotify account, down to every small detail. Later that person writes a new song, it's heavily inspired by Metallica, it sounds like them, you might even mistake it for them except for the vocals, but the lyrics are new, the chords are new, etc. Did that person then violate copyright, even though it's a completely new song?

    I know the AI techbros are just scraping every datapoint they can get their grubby little hands on, but it makes me think.

    Imagine for a sec that all that AI buzz and hype leads to something that is indistinguishable from that extremely intelligent person (however unlikely).

    We're not anywhere close to a scenario like that, but at what point is a regular artist that spent their youth listening to Britney Spears violating copyright law, philosophically speaking, when they decide they want to make music like that?

    Penny for your thoughts.

  • Hamas claims responsibility for deadly Israel shooting attack
  • No it's not. More than one side can be monstrous in a conflict. "Yeah well but they did X so it's okay that we did Y" is bible level reasoning aka no reasoning and pretty much what is causing the whole thing anyway.

  • How to Pick a Safer Helmet, According to Science
  • The only relevant acronym is MIPS, the rest seem to be naming conventions for helmet models or similar technologies. MIPS stands for Multidimensional Impact Protection System. It is a sort of shell inside the helmet touching your head that can rotate independently of the helmet its attached to. This reduces forces on the brain by allowing the helmet to move slightly relative to the head during an angled impact. This helps protect yoru brain by mimicking the natural protective mechanisms, such as the meninges and cerebrospinal fluid.

    TLDR: buy one with MIPS or similar tech and chances are pretty high it's a good helmet, safety wise. Comfort is subjective and not unimportant.

  • About 15k euro or so. I could go to a school program to learn how to code without my financial situation declining because of medical costs i have for a chronic condition.

  • What is your opinion on tool?
  • Its a bunch of guys who are worldclass on their individual instruments. Tool says their songs mean whatever you think they mean. People seem to find them pretentious now but I think they maybe just lost some of their obscure coolness by being more widely known it seems.

    I can't speak for the personality of Maynard cause i don't know the guy but they are my n1 band in every spotify end of year list. The latest albums seems to be a hit or miss depending who you talk to but I freakin love Invincible, Descending, and Culling Voices.

    The music is complex and requires a bit of listening before your brain starts to predict thz patterns for that sweet dopamine hit but oh boy is it worth it. Popular music just sounds bland and repetitive in comparison.
