The audio was terrible and very obviously out of sync with the video.
You didn’t show me how Samsung tablets were better (I saw they can display sheet music, wow very nice).
You ended the ad with “With Galaxy AI”. Do you understand why people were mad at the Apple ad in the first place? It was because AI was crushing human creativity. https://mastodon.social/@verge/112449473882043669
@drahardja If you put an Apple logo at the end and an iPad on the stand, it would work as a recovery ad for Apple, too. (But Apple wants to move on from this.)
The ad has no message apart from ”creativity great” and then immediately undermines it with the AI thingy at the end.
Much as I dislike the theft of human labor that feeds many of the #generativeAI products we see today, I have to agree with @pluralistic that #copyright law is the wrong way to address the problem.
To frame the issue concretely: think of whom copyright law has benefited in the past, and then explain how it would benefit the individual creator when it is applied to #AI. (Hint: it won’t.)
Copyright law is already abused and extended to an absurd degree today. It already overreaches. It impoverishes society by putting up barriers to creation and allowing toll-collectors to exist between citizen artists and their audience.
Labor law is likely what we need to lean on. #unions and #guilds protect creators in a way that copyright cannot. Inequality and unequal bargaining power that lead to exploitation of artists and workers is what we need to address head-on.
@drahardja I kind of agree and I think copyright law is entirely insufficient to deal with what AI is doing. I think it falls more along crossing lines of ethics and also undermining fair competition because of the automation of copying and reconstituting. We need new laws.
@990000 I would go further to say that applying copyright law to AI will take us further from the equitable future we want. If copyright is successfully applied to AI, what we will see after the dust settles is a handful of media behemoths that profit mightily from AI, without slowing down the damage that AI does to the value of creative human labor.
I always return to this pithy guide by @emilymbender when thinking about this topic: we need to think of AI as automation, albeit one that is more effective at displacing a wide variety of human labor than ever. We can’t use copyright to stop automation; it will just enrich a different set of kingpins without stopping its effects.
Oh look, another Elon company stiffing its contractors.
“Texas property records show that Hydroz is one of more than two dozen companies that have filed at least 72 liens since 2019 against sites developed by SpaceX and its contractors. Combined, Reuters found, the liens have sought payments totaling more than $2.5 million.”
Oh wow, no way, I thought firing everyone in the Supercharger division was a deliberate, well-thought-out decision!
“Here's the inside story of why Elon Musk fired the entire Tesla Supercharger staff—Employees say it was a snap decision after he got an answer he didn't like”
Pinot is a skilled pixel artist and animator who does his work on #vintageComputing hardware, mostly early #Macintosh computers.
He suffered a devastating stroke in 2022 and lost much of his motor control. I’m glad to see him back doing #pixelArt and posting again! Give him a follow on Instagram if you’re there.
At least it's a big ship so they might be able to get away from each other when they want. And I think they can get some supplies delivered from shore.
