That’s a good one

Careful, he’s a hero

Filelight is about finding the folders you don’t use that take a lot of space. Basically an easier way to look into which folder takes up what.

Obviously Internet speed and call quality, plus there are many good technical changes under the hood, such as proper isolation of calls etc.

You do a lot, and thank you!

I also hope the studios behind the film made sure to pay a solid donation.

Can instance admins check her IP?

Hi, I’m Nicole! But you can call me the Fediverse Bitch :D

I’m a proud romance scammer from a basement (45 y/o)

I’m currently taking therapy hoping to leave this bullshit for something meaningful to society!

I actually bought an old used Brother printer for $20, and it came with toner and everything already, so since I do not print a lot, my only recurring fee is paper and it is miniscule. And should I need to replace the toner, it is still widely available.

If only we had more content not related to “look we’re free!”, “look Linux is freedom”, “free free free!”, “MAGA bad, but we’re independent and free!”, it would be even more awesome (not a pun to your side, just a piece of frustration)

Also, for those saying “create it yourself” - I do

That gives a whole new twist to “you’ll own nothing and be happy”

Yep, essentially. But that’s for the hyperrealistic one.

Open-source models exist and can be forked

Some form of digital signatures for allowed services?

Sure, it will limit the choice of where to legally generate content, but it should work.

Thanks for context!

The thing is, banning is also a consequential action.

And based on what we know about similar behaviors, having an outlet is likely to be good.

Here, the EU takes an approach of “banning just in case” while also ignoring the potential implications of such bans.

Aha, I see. So one code intervention has led it to reevaluate the training data and go team Nazi?

Yup

“Bizarre phenomenon”

“Cannot fully explain it”

Seriously? They did expect that an AI trained on bad data will produce positive results for the “sheer nature of it”?

Garbage in, garbage out. If you train AI to be a psychopathic Nazi, it will be a psychopathic Nazi.

As an advocate for online and offline safety of children, I did read into the research. None of the research I’ve found confirm with any sort of evidence that AI-generated CSAM materials increase risks of other illicit behavior. We need more evidence, and I do recommend to exercise caution with statements, but for the time being, we can rely on the studies in other forms of illegal behaviors and the effects of their decriminalization, which paint a fairly positive picture. Generally, people will tend to opt for what is legal and more readily accessible - and we can make AI CSAM into exactly that.

For now, people are criminalized for the zero-evidence-its-even-bad crime, while I tend to look quite positively on what it can bring on the table instead.

Also, pedophiles are not human trash, and this line of thinking is also harmful, making more of them hide and never get adequate help from a therapist, increasing their chances of offending. Which, well, harms children.

They are regular people who, involuntarily, have their sexuality warped in a way that includes children. They never chose it, they cannot do anything about it in itself, and can only figure out what to do with it going forward. You could be one, I could be one. What matters is the decisions they take based on their sexuality. The correct way is celibacy and refusion of any sources of direct harm towards children, including the consumption of real CSAM. This might be hard on many, and to aid them, we can provide fictional materials so they could let some steam off. Otherwise, many are likely to turn to real CSAM as a source of satisfaction, or even turn to actually abusing children IRL.

Much as all in modern AI - it’s able to train without much human intervention.

My point is, even if results are not perfectly accurate and resembling a child’s body, they work. They are widely used, in fact, so widely that Europol made a giant issue out of it. People get off to whatever it manages to produce, and that’s what matters.

I do not care about how accurate it is, because it’s not me who consumes this content. I care about how efficient it is at curbing worse desires in pedophiles, because I care about safety of children.
