Comment Good Bye WordPress (Score 1) 23

We can only hope AI coding shortly deletes the disaster called WordPress from existence. It was 'easy' and 'free' until it wasn't either. If you want almost any specific functionality you have to pay for add-ons or new themes. My guess is in 5 years, if you want a free website you will just buy a domain and then ask AI to make any changes in plain english.

Comment It couldn't be more obvious (Score 1) 59

It couldn't be more obvious Deep Seek is 'distilling' aka using other AI's. The Deepseek responses have even claimed to be operating as ChatGPT when asked what version they are. Now, whether this is legal or moral is debatable. If using ChatGPT outputs for another AI is specifically against the ChatGPT API license then probably not so legal. It sounds like ChatGPT claims they are skirting their protections to do this. As we all know Anthropic already got in big trouble to using pirated books for their AI and anthropic fixed that by actually buying all the books it uses now.

The SEC protects against monopolies. These companies are not even in the same industry. There is zero reason to block this merger. Any claim about issues here is purely from Musk haters who hate that he supported Trump in an election and hate that heâ(TM)s provided massive value to the world producing electric cars, reusable rockets, and ChatGPT.

Comment AI is just an Advanced Photoshop (Score 1) 60

AI is just photoshop with a different tools for input: text. Copyright protects the distribution of copyrighted materials not the production of them. AI tools are not stealing because even if you were to create a copyrighted image using AI, you are not breaking the law until you sell it. This is like these same people would be claiming that copy machines would be responsible for stealing when it allows a user to copy an image, or Windows is responsible for theft because it lets users do Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V.

Comment Controversial Opinion (Score 5, Insightful) 53

Tips should not even be an option on delivered food or groceries - and especially not before you even receiving your food. The entire reason tips are a thing is to recognize good service, and when you are forced to tip before any service is even experienced then it's no different than a fee.
