Again, its five days since you posted your comment, not a week, and its just seen by me for the first time about two hours ago.

Also, this is my new signature line, so thanks.
You’re welcome. I appreciate you helping out with normalizing signature lines.
The point you felt was worth making a week later
Again, five days ago. Some people like myself stumble upon a post/comment days and days later from when its initially posted.
is that I am free to block someone who does something I find kind of annoying?
Yeah, for some reason people who complain about me using a license seem to keep forgetting that option, but instead just continue to complain, for some strange reason, no matter how many times I remind them of that option. Thought it was a good PSA to remind the complainers they they have alternatives to complaining.
That seems a little extreme to me.
If that seems extreme to you, then you need to touch grass more often.
Extreme would be continuing to complain about something that you have the power to change, but don’t change.
15·1 year agoWhy is the cc-by-nc-sa license disappointing? Is your disappointment exclusive to version 4.0?
My only disappontment is with those humans (and humans who use ““humans””) who side with AI model using corporations that steal other people’s content to train said models for profit, over regular everyday people.
What is that point?
at the very least it’s way less annoying to see it on a website than it is under every comment
You’re free to block those that use the license, if you find it annoying to see.
You’re free to reply to a week-old comment, too, but neither is a great idea
Actually, five days, not a week.
And also, sometimes its just about making a point, even if you stumble upon something later on. 🤷

what are you going to do? Sue?
Personally? I let Creative Commons know what’s going on, that their licenses are being ignored.
I’m pretty sure they’d have something to say about the matter.
Ah well then I might try and find a license that doesn’t require attribution because I don’t care about that part.
I would argue attribution is also really important, as it forces them to expose publicly how they’re training their models, bringing awareness.
Nice off-topic comment. Pretty sure by now everybody is aware of that (and other posts) on the topic of using a license.
35·1 year agoI’m a large language model and still learning.
How do you feel about this proposed rule passing, and how it affects you? …
Reporting Certain Large AI Model Training
In an effort to secure the development and use of artificial intelligence (“AI”), the proposed rule requires U.S. IaaS providers and their foreign resellers to report known instances of foreign persons training “large AI models with potential capabilities that could be used in malicious cyber-enabled activity” to Commerce.
yeah…its just surreal. I grew up when there was no Internet at all. Now we have bots mining data from a website to get more human-like responses (and more $$). Its a strange world.
Almost makes it useless to bother posting on online forums anymore, if you end up just wasting your time talking to an AI bot, instead of another human.
Which is a weird way lets the 1% win. If the rest of us can’t converse with each other because the ‘virtual town square’ becomes so polluted that meaningful conversation with other humans cannot happen.
There is a dude (or maybe more than one) that in all his comments he has an anti AI flair, or something like that,
I wonder who they are? 😜
For the record, I’m not the only one, nor the first one, to do it. I saw someone else do it, and decided to adopt it for myself as well. I’m aware of three people (and one large company) who are currently licensing their content here on Lemmy.
I wonder if that would have any effect.
One way to find out. It’s an easy enough piece of text to put into your comments…

103·1 year agoPersonally I suggest Fedora with KDE.
It has a great update cadence time frame, and good hardware support (indirectly backed by IBM). And games really well in Steam/Proton.
That’ll get you the most Windows like experience on Linux, for an average user who doesn’t like to tinker much and just wants it to work out of the box.
Just make sure to accept third party libraries / apps when you first install. It’s a single checkbox that you click.
n the meantime I’ve been changing my post sort from Active, to Top Posts in the Past 12 Hours.
If you set it to ‘New’ Lemmy becomes a whole new place.
11·1 year agoFor many many years even low end Android phones can perfectly run emulated game systems that came out a decade or two after atari, so cpu probably isn’t a bottleneck at all
Yeah, I kind of agree, but I just threw it out there as a possibility, as maybe their code base is really bad and non-performant.
If someone includes it at the bottom of all their comments, but never launches legal action when someone violates that licence agreement, then it’s literally useless.
Well, its ‘poisoning the well’. What happens next depends.
For AI companies that actually honor licensing, or are fearful of getting caught at some point, they’ll honor/follow the license for the content.
And for those who do not, if they get caught with their hands in the cookie jar, Creative Commons (and other license creators) will have something to say about it. And they will get caught, we all know about black-box programming their models from the outside via our comments.
Finally, Congress right this second is considering new laws about this, so you never know. Companies in the future may be forced to have to explicitly state where the content comes from that they train their AI models on.
As far as wasting my time, all I do is copy/paste this one line of text via a macro keypress …
[~Anti~ ~Commercial-AI~ ~license~ ~(CC~ ~BY-NC-SA~ ~4.0)~](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/legalcode.en)Its a momentary thing, so no effort at all.
From the article…
It did manage, however, to release a truly bizarre app for iOS and Android devices that requires two smartphones or tablets to work. One device displays the game and the other acts as a controller. It’s a weird idea and, according to Kotaku, “one janky piece of crap.”
The only reason I can think of them doing that is maybe because of CPU overutilization?
Either that, or they wanted to set one up as a game server, and then have multiple phones be the clients. They just forgot to add the feature to let the server run locally on the client.
From the article…
That’s what it comes down to, right there.
Google needs to spend money on people, and not just rely on the AI automation, because it’s obviously getting things wrong, its not judging context correctly.
