An Embedded Software Engineer who does game dev as a hobby.
Yeah, the only outcome I can see from this is everyone is given a choice to stay and shut up or leave if they disagree with the new direction. Most will chose, the people who stay behind to cause trouble will be removed shortly after and then business will return to normal.
Na, I would be trying to the least amount of work possible.

You forgot about asking your employees to bring their own toilet paper. That saves a couple bucks.
This person needs to get help. I doubt more than one or two women are laughing at him, if there is anyone laughing at all.
Who has time to do this while driving?
Generational wars doesn’t do anyone any favors.
Good question.
Ok, so let’s say the artist does exactly what the AI does, in that they don’t try to do anything unique, just looking around at existing content and trying to mix and mash existing ideas. No developing of their own style, no curiosity of art history, no humanity, nothing. In this case I would say that they are mechanically doing the exact same thing as an AI is doing. Do I think I they should get payed. Yes! They spent a good chunk of their life developing this skill, they are a human, they deserve to get their basic needs met and not die of hunger or exposure. Now, this is a strange case because 99.99% of artists don’t do this. Most develop a unique style and add life experience in their art to generate something new.
A Software Engineer can profit off their AI model by selling it. If they are make money by generating images, then they are making money off of hard working artists that should be payed for their work. That isn’t great. The outcome of allowing this is that art will no longer be something you can do to make a living. This is bad for society.
It also should be noted that a Software Engineer making an AI model from scratch is 0.01% of the AIs being used. Most people, lay people, who have spent very little time developing art or Software Engineering skills can easily use an existing model to create “art”. The result of this is that many talented artists that could bring new and interesting ideas to world are being out competed by one guy with a web browser producing sub-par sloppy work.
For personal or public use, I’m fine with it. If you use it to make money, that’s when I get upsetti spaghetti.
I still think a good chunk of the code will be visible. You can have all the code up to the point where you call the proprietary function. Obviously you won’t get to see what’s inside that function but you can guess. Also, a lot of proprietary libraries have that functionality really well documented.
Oh yeah, he could kill them all and then appoint a bunch of new very brave conservative justices.
It’s highly unlikely, but it’s funny to think about.
Only in so much as the Supreme Court decides that it is “legal”.
So the details are that the Supreme Court left it open to interpretation as to what could be considered an “Official Act”. If the Supreme Court decides your murder spree is an “Official Act” you are good to go.
So if the Supreme Court Justices are conservative when Biden goes to trial, then yes, he can be found guilty.
I don’t get the “take off your shoes” part. Is this a meme I have missed?
I am sorry others didn’t hear you. I saw your edit and I think it makes sense. I hope you feel better soon. Emotions are a wild ride. I know from experience.
I don’t think you are causing any problems by not posting a small description of the project.
Sounds like you just don’t want to, why not just say that?
Oh sure, it will be hard. But we have done lots of hard things. Maintaining a road system is very expensive. The government has built aircraft carriers. We went to the moon.
Being hard and expensive has never stopped the government before. It’s just a matter of whether or not we want to do it.
These issues are systemic. I don’t like cops anymore than the next guy. But if the cop didn’t do his job, another cop would do it for him.
Big corpos are not going to stop being shitty the moment they lose their law enforcement friends either.
Oh you know that’s where the engineering effort is going
Hahahahahaha…
It’s cheaper if we starve to death.
This happens in close source software too. You just don’t find out about it until it gets bad enough.
I feel like you are missing the point of OPs post. I think OP is complaining about the price.
