Comment Double Think. (Score 1) 214

I don't get the world anymore... The majority of the first part of the paragraph below outlines WHY meetings need to occur over weekends... and then the last sentence calls it unnecessary... How about: the business sets the requirements for employees , and you either enjoy it, or you leave and find something else. Male/Female/Other shouldn't matter... you're there to do the work.

"International meetings are often scheduled over weekends because that's the only time venues have availability. Few cities have both suitable venues and enough hotel space to welcome 21,000 people from around the world, and even meetings for 3,000 researchers must be booked many years in advance. Because local businesses and regional associations tend to book venues during the working week, large meetings that span three to five days often need to start or end over a weekend. Women who continue to break the glass ceiling in biomedicine are now pitching this timing as an example of unnecessary conflict between work and family."

Comment Copyright protected derivative work. (Score 1) 140

AI is the ultimate in derivative work... even if it was solely trained on copywrited images, those images aren't present in the output.

It's like saying artists can't draw cars similar to Ferrari's because Ferrari holds a design copyright. Looking at it backwards, if we want to prevent artists from drawing things that are like those that are manufactured... they wouldn't be able to draw a jeep in their works for example.

Silly artists.
