I like a good dutch oven, too, OP. What does yours smell like?

I'd prefer decommodification of housing but UBI is probably a step in the right direction.

This and the replies here are actually kind of inspiring. I guess I dont work right now and its very stressful because I feel stuck in my parents home, I dont have the power to craft my life the way I like just yet. But if I never had to work? It'd be so cool to just make art about what life feels like. I'd probably try harder at improving the social experience around me, as opposed to being so confident I need to move away in order to ever be important or build wealth.

My initial position was that AI art would be exciting when a more carefully curated training data is used. ... But after some talking with friends, I think we're living in a world that has minimal respect for copyright already, except when a corporation has a problem with it and wants to bring down the hammer of the law.

It does hurt and its easy to be emotional about artists' livelihoods being threatened by AI, they aren't the only laborers threatened by job loss to automation, but this one hurts the most.

So now its just up to AI and artists to make interesting art with it. And for artists to adapt to this environment that has automated art tools.

Oh. This happened to me as a kid, like, 20 years ago during the ADHD "No child left behind" scare. All the teachers wanted every problematic student to be put on Ritalin. They even had the pills on hand, no doctor on premises, and would try to use this secluded secret room and other coercion tactics to try and get kids to try Ritalin.

No one was fired or arrested, it was suggested in an anonymous letter to the editor that the "bad teachers be let go" when they built and opened a new elementary school building.

I thought this was a fart joke until I read the text inside that green cloud.

I'm sure you've heard this but just to reiterate, I'm super excited for this and I'm proud of you

Like I care. Amazon bought it, they have a monopoly, hey maybe these consumer facing startups would be more profitable if all the money wasnt already distributed so unevenly?

Awesome! I'll be checking it out, I love live streams and hate Twitch, got burnt out of the platform after watching for ~8 years.

This is lovely

 

I'm a CityNerd super fan. Ray's use of data to back up urbanist talking points is so entertaining and informative that I could just cry at the beauty of his videos.
