I'm curious, what would you personally consider to be a step too far in the fight against CSAM?

I use Firefox with uBlock and besides a couple of times where video start was delayed by a few seconds it has been working as well as before.

Section breaks keep the formatting changes from affecting the previous/following content so you can place and format images as you wish.

I've seen that sentiment on reddit as well and I can't phantom how you think it being on purpose is more likely than a mistake when

1 - The error is so blatantly large

2 - There is a graph without error right next to it

3 - The errors are not there in the system card and the presentation page

Sure but "Also the the sora videos are proven to be modified ads" is demonstrably false, for the demos OpenAI shared and the artist made ones.

Oh, so not the actual demo videos OpenAI shared on their website and twitter.

Can't find anything about that, you got a link?

MJ coomers? The same MJ that bans accounts for coomer content?

Not sure that will change just because of a new frontend.

It is very obvious that the amount and type of damage is not the same if you clone any random person's voice or clone a political leader's voice.

It is not the same damage.

> Even if it takes a thousand tries, that means one out of thousand users would get it.

If they use that particular prompt that primes the model for regurgitation.

It's not one in a thousand of regular queries.

It is clear you're arguing from an emotional, not logical, standpoint where facts don't matter.

How can we disagree on facts? There are no billionaires just sitting on billions. They are in circulation.

Believe it or not billionaires are part of the public and those billions are in circulation. There are no dragons sitting on hoards of gold.

More importantly: money that is not in circulation doesn't affect you or me, it has the same weight on the economy as all the gold still not mined.

How did you rule out survivorship bias?

This issue here is thinking you, holding the knowledge to 3D model, are not also a holder of capital. Capital isn't just money.

> but it's not a problem our economy seems equipped to solve

It's not a problem at all in my opinion.

> Since people like working on art projects, people will often line up to do so even when conditions and pay don't economically square with their effort.

The pay has only to be accepted to be fair. You're free to start your own production company that pays more "fairly" but you'll find yourself with fewer opportunities to give people this "awe" than the company that can finance more projects.

> To benefit from this vocational awe

Warner Bros. is losing money by scrapping the movie, how are they benefiting in this case?
