<p>We know it's not inevitable because people are sticklers about the process of creation today.<p>People claim certain artists work is uninteresting because they didn't paint or sculpt it themselves but instead acted as more of a creative director.<p>People claim The Odyssey has more value because its physical effects and uses film not digital.<p>People claim digital art/digital photography isn't real art/photography still.<p>It's not an insignificant number of people but yeah it's definitely not everyone too but there are definitely ones born way after the argument was already settled on a lot of these things and still argue it. Will be mostly interesting to see how children today think about the value and ownership of education, knowledge, art, etc in a world where they're completely devalued and democratized and if they still have people who think it's not art if you didn't paint it and it's not your work if you didn't think it.</p>

<p>Clocked this a while ago, crazy how the smell of the same model they're using is so distinct that entire areas of town are starting to look homogenous.<p>Someones definitely going to write a think piece about how this erases aesthetic identity of cities and cultures.<p>Looks like absolute ass too, easily beaten even by something designed by someone completely naive to design/art, good sign of a place to avoid.</p>

<p>Quik & Silva was a banger, noticed a bootleg sonic was in it as a kid but had no idea about that fact. Amazing soundtrack too <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXtT3L0zEqs" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WXtT3L0zEqs</a><p>Something special about growing up with an Amiga instead of just a mainstream console because a lot of the games were opinionated creations from individuals that went viral through physical disk copies rather than everything just coming from  a corporation.</p>

<p>It probably was distilled but the point is why is that an issue at all, Claude is just distilled from all our work. Why is stealing our work fine but stealing Anthropic's work bad.<p>Anyone doing so should have zero guilt because it was already stolen goods to begin with.</p>

<p>> They train in false information about Taiwan and Hong Kong. Or pretend like history is in favor of China.<p>American labs can open their models or their old models at any point if they actually care about this, but until the day OG GPT 4 isn't averrable to download or Claude 3 then they're only pretending to care about this because they can profit from restrictions.</p>
