AI is and will continute to be increasingly empowered with indifferent safety precautions because the power money confers is all that matters to techbros.
First world systems are far more fragile than they appear to humans. AI doesn't have that problem.
If that'll all they intended they could have agreed on a very narrowly-tailored agreement limiting the use to the same aspects of the film as manual animation.
Maybe Cage is doing some solidarity thing with animators or maybe Amazon intended to do much more and were attempting an underhanded trick.
It's hard to tell except you'd expect Cage to say something if animators' jobs were his cause.
It sounds like his agent or manager knew what was up.
> you apparently desire to use systems beyond their design points
Who doesn't include cost in design?
If my CPU/SoC is plenty fast for my task and the DRAM is faster than I need it to be and a CPU instruction to compress takes less power than a write out to the bus - it would just be wasteful to manufacture and purchase twice as much DRAM as the application needs.
Either the end user gets a better price (and all money is the result of expending energy, so we save again) or the manufacturer makes a larger profit (in a constrained market).
Now then - all you lunatics embedding Electron and costing me 400MB to send an 80 character text message - we need to talk about this.
CRAM seems like a great idea but it's not the solution to not caring about the Craft.
Can't tell if we should moderate the article as Troll or Flamebait.
Commenters have already pointed out the dishonesty of the prose based on their own published stats.

Yes, I'm enabling the clickbait by commenting.
What's next...Trans-Bots and DEI for underserved Bot minorities?!!? H1-Bot....?
There has never been an explanation of the motive for enshittifying Slashdot. It would be far more profitable with quality moderation.
It's as if Slashdot's owners hate money. While I respect the desire to do less work, even AI would be an improvement. Nerds wanting news and stuff that matters are a very large market.
JPEG-XL is a good format but I just realized yesterday that Google Docs on Android doesn't support inserting a webp image a decade after Google was pushing it. I had one from a website and needed to run it through imagemagick first.
Android supports it, all the apps using android image primitives supoort it, but one of Google's flagship apps still doesn't.
We used move much faster thirty years ago. If an app supported say GIF, PNM, and TGA when JPEG came out it was supported in the next release.
Hopefully this round will be better. It's probably a management problem
These threads are space filler and have been for decades.
Since 1999. If Redmond built OS and applications as well as their hardware the world would be a better place.
Again, is this a European thing? I've never heard of a shed dedicated to storing bikes....I can see this is brewing used as an analogy for something else, but the shed/bike concept itself is foreign to me.
How many NASA managers does it take to screw in a lightbulb? "That's a known problem... don't worry about it."
