@dsantat @atrupar I don’t think the people that need to be reminded, are. When you have major media outlets like Fox News filtering out his insanity to their audiences. Go to their website right now and see how they white wash that ass hat then vilify his opponents.

@atrupar Why do people need to be reminded every 2 weeks what a piece of shit this guy is?

Trump: "Can you imagine a wife not telling a husband who she's voting for? Did you ever hear anything like that? Even if you had a horrible -- if you had a bad relationship, you're gonna tell your husband."

@Rahll Let’s not forget that all publicly traded companies have been “implementing AI”, in the hopes of satisfying investors and for a hopeful stock bump. Here is a look at Lionsgate performance in the last year….

The more I think about this, the more I think Lionsgate got scammed. AI output can't be copyrighted and Runway is being sued in a class action that just went to discovery. I don't think it's a coincidence that one of the smaller studios signed up first.
Reid Southen@Rahll

Lionsgate has partnered with Runway. I wonder how the directors and actors of their films feel about having their work fed into the AI to make a proprietary model. As an artist on The Hunger Games? I'm pissed. This is the first step in trying to replace artists and filmmakers.

@pamsson Biden was solid on the policies once he got rolling, but he looked like he was in pain the whole time. I actually felt bad for him. Once again I’m going to vote blue because the alternative is actually a monster. 🫤

@pamsson It’s this weird hubris that the older political generation seems to have that has everyone in a panic. People are having PTSD flashbacks of when RBG passed and the debacle that happened after. I’m going to vote blue, but fuuuu%€!

I’m still trying to wrap my head around this Democrat “panic.” These next few months are really important for policy, the economy, Israel/Palenstine, etc. If you think this man is that incapable after a bad DEBATE performance, shouldn’t you be calling for his resignation now?

@Rahll Aren’t all gen-AI companies trying to take a page from Uber? I.E. quickly/unethically forcing cheap goods on a market, while undercutting/pushing out competitors. The moment the competition “goes away” they jack up the prices hoping to finally make a profit.

@Rahll Let’s not forget the exploited workers in the kitchen that Wendy’s is trying to phase out so the share holders can scrape in a little more profit.

@linakhanFTC @AOC @SenSchumer Is this even legal? It’s definitely not ethical. No company should EVER be able to turn around and sell it’s users data for profit w/o giving the user the option to OPT IN. Not this nonsensical/faux opt-out already in play. x.com/Rahll/status/1…
Reid Southen@Rahll

I don't understand how anyone can claim fair use when literally selling other people's content WHOLESALE. Seriously, what the f*ck is going on, where's the @FTC right now. 404media.co/tumblr-and-wor…

@dsantat They are trying to extend the grift just a lil’ bit more before all those cases come crashing down around them,or all the money dries up, or they find another grift to latch onto. This isn’t a tool, it’s just a new component to the hype machine that will do more harm than good.

@dsantat I also take solace in the fact that this is not sustainable (at the moment). They are trying to impress/terrify you with the shiny new object, but not telling everyone that they are operating at a loss and burning so much energy to make any of this happen.

OMG. The demonstration for the new AI, SORA, has gotten me a little depressed. I can’t even tell the difference anymore and it’s only been a few years and it’s only going to get better after this. Tell me again why people think this is a good idea? youtu.be/NXpdyAWLDas?si…

@DapsDraws wages there are struggling artists willing to undercut other struggling artists. We all need an actual town hall to figure this out. Because of the way things are going, huge tech firms and corporations are going to co-opt "creativity" and have the rest of us fighting for scraps

@DapsDraws I have been asking that same question for a while now, and no one seems to have an answer. BUT, what it seems to come down to is that we as artists have been forced to constantly compete for work amongst ourselves. So when it comes time to fight for fair...
