Anything created with aesthetics in mind is art, even if it's shit.

Disallowing AI generated art is perfectly valid though, it's their show.

I have to disagree with this sentiment.

As an example, John Cage's 4'33" is not music.

Well, that is quite crazy - according to the description all the people, who actually are quiet are performers of his piece, do we own royalties as well? :-)

[...] Of course people are free to do these things but we should also be equally free to reject their works from even the set of what constitutes art.

Agree, being silly is OK, but if the "naked king" has group of claqueurs praising his clothes then it becomes questionable.

I believe you're right about it - indeed settlement is not a precedence, however the fact that the judge decided to allow this to proceed is interesting - wouldn't it be the same as an obese person suing food producers, or any other addiction suing companies producing stuff allowing the addiction?

Or maybe not and any one who claims to be an "artist" while presenting ai should be laughed out of the room.

You have a valid point, it is not created but generated, however - as always - it is not so easy to mark the line, as AFAIK all (most) computer graphics programs use AI for some options/features.
We also have a precedence with introduction of photography - painters of that time for sure claimed it is not art and should be banned from the art exhibitions.

I will sustain my suggestion of allowing as a separate category.

I'm sorry, but how was her lack of self-control someone else's problem? Have any alcoholics successfully sued Budweiser? No? Then why settle a doomed lawsuit?

Good points, to me it is interesting how it will turn out to resolve, as candy, alcohol, tobacco, etc. producers would be next, just allowing it to proceed is a precedent (?) - would displaying "highly addictive - do not watch without self-control" be enough to avoid such lawsuits?

Laugh now. You know I'm right.

It's not a fusion reactor so let's cut the hype headlines.

People are so desperate for "clicks" nowadays that every science news is a "breakthrough" or "revolution" now, especially in fusion, superconductivity or quantum computers - however reaching this "new density in plasma confinement" is still interesting.

The moon is probably less dumb than orbit. ...

Good points, though the orbit still beats the Moon on latency and access, once the Moon had permanent bases then the access would be balanced and I'd assume people would start building astro observatories there - lots of data to process/store.

Both are probably vastly inferior to your nearest desert or ocean.

Of course, just we're discussing the beyond the Earth locations' pros and cons.

Are your calculations for AC? As I've just heard of popular developments of DC local zones gaining momentum to simplify all the power management and save on energy losses due to conversion - for sure it would simplify the power units and on the Moon no point of using AC in data centers.

Howerer the Earth's orbit is a better place IMO - having constant Sun exposure for power and easier maintenance, so I wonder why the Moon then.

I just did a search, on both DuckDuckGO and Google, to find what it is and got pages of results only on this bloody exploit!

From what I checked this name specifically refers to the discovered set of vulnerabilities in the React proprietary client-server protocol, which (the bugs) allow for shell execution on a server.
