Under your proposal:
1. How would the producer of a video cover the cost of producing the video before it even reaches BitTorrent?
2. How would a viewer learn of a video that they are likely to enjoy?
3. How would the system work around users who "leech", or view the video without contributing to its decentralized hosting?

haha good one, the boys down at the maga rally will get a real kick out of it as you stroke eachother off

You have it exactly right. I can see why you didn't post with an identity, you'd get punished by the reich wingers. Wage theft exceeds all other theft combined but maggots are still crying about shoplifters

It already has been making false positive matches. There have been several stories about people randomly accosted as they entered stores like B&M, with the security staff claiming they were criminals and often breaking the law themselves in the process.

Because the database is shared by several different chains, it's something that you can't ignore if it falsely flags you. You need to get them to remove your face from it, and ideally claim some compensation for the misuse of your biometric data. The baseline is £250, but I'd be looking for at least £750 due to the hassle and embarrassment caused.

The amount of queries needed to steal a model (which is possible though queries) is prohibitive. This is probably just an attempt to keep up the fantasy that China cannot do their own models. That is nonsense. For example, small Switzerland has created its own open model (https://apertus-ai.org/), mostly as an academic project. China for sure can do it. All I see China doing is comparative benchmarks and such and that is perfectly legitimate.

If China can do it, that means the likes of Anthropic are not nearly as special as they present themselves to be. But that false image of superiority is what keeps their cash-flow going, because they are still very far away from becoming profitable (if they ever do). Hence, in order to be able to keep burning the stupid money (from "investors"), they have to push this narrative.
