Je pensait que c'etait la NFP cette fois-ci 😅, mais ils savent tout mieux que quiconque.
Sounds like their arch-enemies are not even the CIA and fascists from any country (they are not even that good at identifying them). What they truly fear and hate is russian dissidents and people who actually live in the Baltics, Poland and Ukraine and understand what is really going on and can deflate their skewed worldview. They don't see them as enemies, they see them as traitors.
France didn't let you post if you didn't have enough karma in that sub...ok.
Problem is this is a Cell vs C18 fight. Don't let Cell win and absorb C18 :/ neither can win.
I get that you don't need to be a professional instrument player to make good music...or be a professional composer...but if everything that takes effort, knowledge, experience and practice is done for you, what are you really contributing? Curation, maybe?
This is great for people who make indie games to focus on gameplay and structure. You can make a full soundtrack and background images in a 2 minutes for free. But you can't say it is going to help foster the creativity that great composers valued, because you will eventually see e.g. music at the top level, as styles you can remix with some characteristics, but won't be aware of how they are built and can be rebuilt to create something truly new.
This will limit creativity, because we will associate novelty with a high-level remix/fusion in a preset number of dimensions instead of the much higher possibilities coming from complexity underneath.
...it's like I'm talking about low-level programming languages vs high-level ones :)
The self-repairable part is odd to me.You need to keep feeding, oxygenating it and to prevent infections, otherwise it will rot :S Besides, on humans the healing relies on blood for platelets and crusts to form and a whole immune system...it needs too much babysitting to be called "self-healing".
I think it's pretty clear they want to own it, not ban it.
First, they will use the rights of artists to gather popular and lawmaker support in their war against AI-content, then big labels will integrate it to turn around and screw creators over. It's a classic.
synthetic playmates..got it 👯
I was surprised it took them this long. But this just means that labels want to own AI songmaking, this is not good for creators or listeners either. Rick Beato was talking about this today:

...but...why? What is the point of living skin on machines? Even humans do everything they can to make their skin not look human :D
Suno and Udio could face damages of up to $150,000 per song allegedly infringed.
Who thinks google will still be a traded company in 10 years?
I mean... having a chokehold on cloud computing is still very much a source of the dominance US and Chinese companies have to shape world markets these days...

Kim - I'll send some your way too, then.
putin - Thank you senpai T~T

SpaceX's growing Starlink megaconstellation could be hindering the Earth's ozone layer from healing itself, researchers find.
Abstract from the paper in the article:
https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2024GL109280
Large constellations of small satellites will significantly increase the number of objects orbiting the Earth. Satellites burn up at the end of service life during reentry, generating aluminum oxides as the main byproduct. These are known catalysts for chlorine activation that depletes ozone in the stratosphere. We present the first atomic-scale molecular dynamics simulation study to resolve the oxidation process of the satellite's aluminum structure during mesospheric reentry, and investigate the ozone depletion potential from aluminum oxides. We find that the demise of a typical 250-kg satellite can generate around 30 kg of aluminum oxide nanoparticles, which may endure for decades in the atmosphere. Aluminum oxide compounds generated by the entire population of satellites reentering the atmosphere in 2022 are estimated at around 17 metric tons. Reentry scenarios involving mega-constellations point to over 360 metric tons of aluminum oxide compounds per year, which can lead to significant ozone depletion.
PS: wooden satellites can help mitigate this https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-01456-z
