I did. He literally does not answer the question. He "considers" it, as you said, and then moves on. Here's the context of the quote you posted earlier:
Would the market for organic food be the behemoth that it is if the choice of label had been something like "synthetic pesticide-free"?⁷ Admittedly it's not a kale-to-kale comparison, but I hope the point is clear. Why mention AI if the point is avoidance of AI?
He asks a question, then says "I hope the point is clear" without saying what the point is, and then asks another question. He then naively follows-up that nonsense with:
These AI-focused terms do bring the advantage that they are instantly understood, but look how quickly "slop," "6-7," and "enshittification" were able to enter the lexicon.
Those entered the lexicon because they're fuckingwords. They are sounds and arrangements of letters tied to concepts that we know and understand. You don't have to read an entire website to understand what "enshittification" means, as it's made up of words you already know. "zuzai" has no such connection because some guy just made it up. That's precisely why "no AI" and "AI-free" are the better options, because it uses words you already know.
At this point, I question whether or not you've read the thing. Because I don't understand how anybody can read this and think "Yeah this is a good idea" instead of "This is just a bunch of attention-seeking nonsense to boost his LinkedIn following for when he announces his upcoming book".
I think a big difference is that many people (in the US, at least) don't choose their own fridge. Renters often have the fridge included with the home. There's far fewer people who could reasonably inflict such a boycott.
That wasn't proof of anything. Not only does it not make any sense in the context of the discussion, it was incorrect ("every single person in the image looks different"), as there are more than three people in the image that you probably didn't notice, and they appear to be largely untouched.
It's kinda hard to judge the contrast difference, given that the left image is an arctifact-riddled JPG, and the right image is an artifact-riddled photo of a print.
I'm just saying, a generative AI model does not inherently need to apply changes to the entire image. That is a very outdated understanding of the process, which tells me that it's probably been a hot minute since you've been paying any attention to AI, and therefore you probably shouldn't speak with such an authoritative tone on the subject.
This is inaccurate, current models can target specific zones in an image. Midjourney was capable of that ages ago, and Midjourney is already basically ancient history at this point.
It's getting downvoted because it's answering the question with another question. They might as well have just replied with the 🤷 emoji, for how useful of an answer it is.
Does the author assume that the reader doesn't know what Australia is? "Australia! You know; the place with kangaroos, shrimps on barbies, and toilets that flush the other way around!"
If being a professional means providing no resistance while building the machinery of fascism, are you proud of that?
Brother, you don't even know the nature of the deal his employer has with Flock. For all you know Flock just bought some gravel from him for a driveway, calm down. People got bills to pay, and you can't fight fascism on an empty stomach.

Lemmy World isn't really a "leftist" community. It's left-leaning, if you're being generous.
These cunts live every day without nearly enough fear of being tarred and feathered. That really ought to change.

That won't get you a book deal like a "new word" will. The author thinks this will make him the next Cory Doctorow.
Oh good, I'm glad the author considered the question.
Tell me when he answers it.

You don't know what system you even are talking about.

Or they ran a prompt with more than one unique request in it?

But they're inherently not equal concepts.
Oh, so it only hurts the poorest and benefits those who can already afford to buy? How uplifting.

What did you call me?
I suppose that's better, but only "better" in the same sense that drinking piss is "better" than drinking diarrhea.

Doesn't Axon do bodycams/dashcams? I like those, they put a bit of accountability on the police.
Unless they're also doing ALPRs, in which case fuck 'em straight to hell.
Don't give me hope.
But what can you do at zombocom?
