Also, he'll get stopped and fined by the cops for using his newfound multitasking ability to caress his iphone while driving.

Do yourself a favour and have your AI summarize this book for you. It has everything you are going to face very shortly, including answers.

It's not the OP's fault. He's just the "drug addict". You want to talk to the "drug pusher".

Writing in the manner of a human programmer, poorly, is just one possible classifying feature. Yet another classifying feature would be writing perfect code, in a manner alien to the natural output of human programmers. Neither may be desirable for contributions to certain projects.

A competent society does not respond to new technology by demanding it disappear.

What makes you think that some technology is worth protecting just by virtue of existing?

There are many telltale (shh!) patterns in AI code generators. They are not so easy to find if the codebase is large and the AI slop is only a tiny fraction of it. But when the codebase is small and the AI generated most of it, it's pretty obvious. And that's exactly the use case for this ban.

I for one approve of the death penalty for deserving politicians. If they know we can kill them it keeps them more honest.

Is the point it was posted on X?

Sort of: Nolan was upset X/Twitter's 280 character limit is not IMAX compliant.

Joke's on you! I would definitely fly to a cheap third world country (like Madagascar) to get the surgery done using old school surgeons who have already practiced a thousand times.

You're assuming public web rings.

The way things seem to be going is that sharing information in the public sphere is being abused by the social media and AI companies, both by copying without attribution or reciprocal agreements, and by slop generation which drowns the information in noise. Also known as :Tragedy Of The Commons

If we assume private web rings are to be the future, then a lot of the above issues become moot as long as the access controls prevent the general public / AI companies from being part of the web ring. Sure once in a while the access will be breached, but mostly that might do the job required, which is: To allow timely and useful information sharing exclusively among the minority who belong to the private web ring.

What if someone took your photo without your consent, and uploaded it claiming you're one of their "friends"? Still fair game? No.

You people who claim that these predatory anti-privacy practices are all self-inflicted have no answer to the true problem: Most of the information available "publicly" and shared "freely" on the internet and social media sites is not actually "available" and is not "shared" by anyone who owns the information.

There's no putting the genie of stolen data in the bottle, you're right about that. But there is a strong case for government regulation world-wide, and forcing companies to *prove* every time that all the information they make use of for any purpose was legally acquired from the actual information owners.

Is this a heavy burden compared to the free for all wink wink going on now? Sure. Will that destroy a bunch of rich companies that temporarily prop up the US economy? Sure. Should it still be done regardless? Sure.

I misunderstood you too.

That attitude is exactly what's wrong with most of you people in America. You think that society exists for corporations to make money off people. In the rest of the world, we believe that society's sole justification for existence is to serve its people. We call it the social contract.

Our differences cannot be reconciled.

Social media per se isn't an ideally useful concept. We humans are adapted to living in small communities of between 20-50 people at the most. Large community communication systems such as social media are unnatural environments that cause dysfunctional outcomes and behaviours in humans when used. That's what we're seeing today.

So no, I don't believe that social media can be done "right".

"It" doesn't exist as a legal entity. The legal entity that organized the hack was OpenAI.
