  • The issue is, if you want a job in this sort of field, 90% of the time it is contract, with no option or ability to switch over to permanency. I have worked for several years in my current IT job, but I am technically a contractor, and every 6 months, I need to make peace with the fact that I might not have a job for no reason. I definitely do not rock the boat, because even though they’re “not allowed” to fire me if I join a union, they only have to wait till the end of the contract to find another worker bee.










  • What the fuck are you talking about?

    Porn has existed forever. Onlyfans is a type of porn consumption. A stiff, plastic, clammy-skinned woman with anime proportions isn’t about to replace the social intimacy that people get from OF. And yes, I know that there are some really good AI gen’s images out there, but it’s a different market entirely.

    And if I want porn, there are a million sites for images and videos that don’t require a machine to steal the likenesses of a thousand women to output the most generic bland porn I’ve ever seen.

    If AI is going to replicate the social and porn aspects of the industry, so you really think the creators aren’t going to exploit horny idiots out of their money?


  • While I am no fan of the NYT and other news site’s pricing models, I don’t think that this goes against “protecting the press”. Journalists do a job. They research, compile, draft, and write articles in their own voice (or the voice of the news outlet). They are paid for this work. OpenAI wants to scrape the words off news sites so that their language model can regurgitate them for free.

    This is the AI Art thing all over again. Creators should be paid for their work.
