and I’m certain they don’t check for nearby children

What??? Why wouldn't they check for nearby children? Israel loves two things: doing genocides and killing children. How else are they going to keep the score? Gotta make the number go up!

This is one of the many showcases of how AI is "not like any other technology". A knife is constructed in such a way that using it to cut comes natural. Making a wheel turn on a road feels natural.

Now do the same but with "invented a child bombing machine" or "rape machine", for the people who are annoyingly dense and tone-deaf.

That's not all it is. The how of the it is also important.

fair

18 to 21 years: the time a person born today when I register the work, will have to wait until becoming an adult member of society who ought to be able to work for society and thus be able to consume my creation on their own terms, not constrained by a "mandate" or a "license".

Hopefully fewer than the ones who will fork because of the pro-AI voting.

Honestly this would be the expected effect if one understand what Reddit even is in the first place: an aggregator.

The "correct" (or "more correct") thing to do would be to mirror reddit's links to the author's/creator's webpage / service in the post, so that the people who can respond to the creator can, and the people who want to just talk about the thing linked, also can.

And, given that Reddit now restricts visiting without being logged in, the only "practical" way to even get some of the links there is for someone else to mirror them into the Fediverse anyway.

Do you really not understand concepts such as "necessary but not sufficient"? Just because I don't like strawberry juice doesn't mean I have to dislike all strawberries (or all juices).

Or are you trying to sell AIs for someone else?

Come on, be honest.

The main issue is DNSSEC - with it, negative answers are authoritative and signed, so they’d need to stop supporting DNSSEC altogether to restore the record.

Makes sense to me. Technologies and laws have to be graded in terms of who they hit negatively. if DNSSEC can be used to censor and erase people on a toddler's whim, then it's perhaps best that it's removed, or that it's at least temporarily dropped for cases like this.

It sounds like you are mad at our economic and societal structures, but taking your anger out on the tools.

I can be mad at both the exploitative structures and at the toolkits that enable, further and synthetize them. They don't need to be mutually exclusive, and in general it's not useful that they are.

You need to divorce your thinking

I already did, but you refuse to read it. I explicitly said this is about how A (or what people call "AI", because it certainly has not existed for "around for 50 years now") exist in this world how we have created it. Via theft, exploitation and destruction, and oriented to the fulfillment of the elites and the oppression of the worker class.

Absolutism is toxic, yes. Moderated realism upon a flagrant observation of reality as conducted, is not.

Please, try at least some modicum of intellectual discourse. Electricity is quite a physical phenomenon of nature, like rain, we can not impart moral judgment on them.

All that said, there are ways to use electricity without "exploitative resource extraction", for example with a potato.

There is no way (in this world that we have created) to use AI "responsibly". No matter what you choose, you are building on the base of wage theft, human suffering, environmental destruction and empowerment of the oligarchies.

AI is not "like any other technology". That's techbro acceleracionist slopaganda.

algorithms and processes are not copyrightable. Code is an expression of algorithms, and thus is copyrightable. If anything, that's the stance that the entire movements of Free Software and Open Source are going with to function, so this sounds not a good idea even if it is a good ideal.
