riskable

If the cost of using it is lower than the alternative, and the market willing to buy it is the same. If the current cloud hosted tools cease to be massively subsidized, and consumers choose to avoid it, then it’s inevitably a historical footnote, like turbine powered cars, Web 3.0, and laser disk.

There's another scenario: Turns out that if Big AI doesn't buy up all the available stock of DRAM and GPUs, running local AI models on your own PC will become more realistic.

I run local AI stuff all the time from image generation to code assistance. My GPU fans spin up for a bit as the power consumed by my PC increases but other than that, it's not much of an impact on anything.

I believe this is the future: Local AI models will eventually take over just like PCs took over from mainframes. There's a few thresholds that need to be met for that to happen but it seems inevitable. It's already happening for image generation where the local AI tools are so vastly superior to the cloud stuff there's no contest.

Her problem is she cited the wrong bible!

Clearly, she should've cited the real bible that has the true word of the gods in it. Not that atheist Christian bible!

Remember: If you don't believe in my gods, you're an atheist!

In other news, turns out pop music is very formulaic and easy for a machine to generate!

The distance between, "all of this was made on a computer with minimal effort" and, "this music was entirely generated by AI" is very short indeed.

I hope the SCOTUS justices aren't using 3-strikes-you're-out ISPs! All it would take is three random DMCA takedown notices and they'd lose Internet.

Democrats: "Pay transparency laws increase pay for workers across the board!"

Republicans: "YES! Exactly! Finally we agree on something! This is why we fought so hard to block them!"

I'm sure tigers say the same thing about us.

Their entire workflow is in Linux (KDE/Kate/Krita/Inkscape) which is awesome!

You jest, but if conservatives have their way, you'll soon have to verify your ID by uploading a video every time you visit the site (if not logged in). Even for non-adult content!

Because the reason for the ID isn't to "protect the children" or anything like that. It's about control. Conservatives want the power to decide what people get to see and ID verification systems are just a small part of that.

Doppelblume. It means "double blossom".

Alternatives:

• Domina Doppel
• Endowed Doppel
• Satin/Silk/Velvet Doppel
• Double-D Doppel

So... just like on Earth, the majority of the universe is full of wimps! And Black Holes are the universe's version of, "suck it up, buttercup!"

This is fowl play!
