TenForward: Where Every Vulcan Knows Your Name@lemmy.world•Creating the cloaked, self-replicating mines qualifies Rom for "miracle worker"

7·1 month agoReplicator technology is so overpowered that star trek almost always steers clear of actually using it for anything useful, so I’m not sure why they decided to do it in this one episode. Like with replicator technology you could have an essentially infinite number of enterprises, or make a million billion defiants. You could build a self-replicating clown car and quickly bury the entire surface of a planet in a pile of clown cars that’s 3 miles high.

Games@lemmy.world•Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash
61·2 months agoWe weren’t all saying copyright altogether was unfair. In fact i think most of us have always said copyright law should exist, just that it shouldn’t be like ‘lifetime of the creator plus another 75 years after their death’. Copyright should be closer to how it was when the law was first started, which is something like 20 years.
(And personally imo there should also be some nuanced exceptions too.)

What makes you think they use US ai? And even if they do it’s surely just a stopgap till they make their pwn. And and all the search engines have a way to turn off ai in your searches. And and and this is the type of purity test that prevents progress from happening
