Die haben im Anschluss mehrere Straßen illegal blockiert und da wurde nichts von der Polizei abgeschleppt.

Die Traktor-Terroristen terrorisieren wieder mal Deutschland und die Polizei schaut nur zu. Eine Schande.

I’m pretty sure everyone outside of the UK knew that.

Everyone knew that brexit means leaving the single market. The entire point of Brexit was to ‘take back control’. People voted for this Brexit in 2019. They made their bed, now they can lie in it.

Brexit means Brexit, not breakfast in Paris.

So you know how annoying it is when someone tells you they know your gender better than you. That you are wrong about your gender and should do therapy to be the gender they think you should be? Oh, you do? Then please stop doing it. Thanks.

Ich habe meine Wohnung nie unter 21°C.

Ich liebe es wenn in Sommer 35°C in der Wohnung ist mit offenen Fenstern. Bei der trockenen Hitze hier ganz entspannt.

It’s not the company, it’s the workers. The workers of the delivery company are striking and refusing to do any work related to tesla. Workers together strong.

Vielleicht solltest du erst mal akzeptieren, dass deine Meinung zu Migration in Deutschland nicht von der Mehrheit der Wähler geteilt wird.

Imagine if you only watch a show on Netflix is you are physically in Texas and as soon as you are in Oklahoma you can’t anymore. And then believe Netflix would pull out of the US market just because the federal government passed a bill mandating that content needs to be available in the entire US and not just select states.

Even worse, as he is comparing a cherry picked current mix with the german total over 6 months (Jan to June), Germany’s current mix is very similar to the current mixes he has shown.

Recht hat er schon, aber von der falschen Seite betrachtet. Richtig rum wäre es “ein attraktiver Arbeitgeber hat es nicht nötig den Beschäftigten hinterherlaufen.” Muss man such mal vorstellen, Menschen die freiwillig in einer Firma arbeiten wollen weil Gehalt und Rahmenbedingungen stimmen.

Nichts. Der Rechtsstaat ist nicht so einfach auszuhebeln, schon gar nicht wenn die in einer Koalition sind.

The problem that I see is that you aren’t very present in the art.

Now that depends on how much agency you give yourself, doesn’t it? If you just give Midjourney a prompt and call it a day then yes. But the result won’t be very good, will it? Similar how you could just input random notes to a synthesizer and get shitty music in return.

The problem is that the majority of people does exactly that and then shares the resulting images online, making it appear that is all there is to it. You can however express yourself artistically by using prompt engineering to get something good and than working with that to further approach what you imagine by editing the result. There are many people out there who could not artistically express themselves as they lacked the ability to translate their vision to a canvas. With the help of image generating AI they can finally express themselves. I think this is something beautiful.

How are we going to develope [sic] new styles?

While I do agree with you that our current AI image generators won’t be very innovative, this is by design and not necessity.

This is what you would have gotten in let’s say 2017 when asking an AI what it thinks a dog looks like (s. DeepDream).

And a couple years later you can achieve this with Midjourney.

Things are developing very fast and in the end of the day, even if we would never get an AI that can innovate art there is nothing stopping humans from just doing it themselves as we have always done over millennia. You can already greatly increase the creativity of existing image generators by tweaking the randomness factors and those algorithms don’t just remix existing images, they are actually creating their own. You need the training set of existing labeled images to train the AI as it doesn’t know what a frog is, nor a tree or anything really.

AI is just going to continue to remix remixes of remixes

This is indeed a concern. If you feed too much AI generated images into the training of an image generator it causes a sort of degenerative disease in the AI that results in inferior results. Some sort of AI incest so to speak. The prevalence of AI art on the internet and the inability to reliably differentiate it from human art is proving to be a challenge for making new training sets.

The entire point of generative AI is to generate things not present in the training set by teaching it to abstract the concept.

It’s a very fair comparison because in both cases you take the physical skill requirement that takes years to learn and even longer to master out of producing art. To make a good electronic song you need to compose, but you don’t need to know how to physically play the instruments. To make a good image you need to know how to compose it, but not how to physically draw it.

I am not a good illustrator though, but I’m good at working with AI and Photoshop. Using generated images as a base gives me the best quality in a reasonable time.

I’m pretty sure there are musicians who would roll in their graves at the thought of generating music in synthesizers, yet without we would have electronic music.

Kochen ist auch nur angewandte Chemie. Am Ende kommt es nur darauf an wie viel und welche Chemikalien man zu sich nimmt, nicht wo diese produziert wurden.

This was weeks ago and iirc referred to getting the blood of lathander without having to steal it.

Hey, you dropped this \

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I can already get a canvas and brush and draw what I think u/DessertStorms looks like naked and there is nothing you can do about it.

Wenn du der Meinung bist über 20% der Deutschen Wähler sind Faschisten mit denen man nicht mehr reden kann dann sehe ich das als Kapitulation ein.

Mal angenommen das stimmt. Was denkst du wählt dieses faschistische Fünftel der Bevölkerung in der nächsten Wahl? Was willst du als Faschist sonst wählen außer AfD? Es würde bedeuten das nächste Wahl und die darauf und die darauf folgende usw die AfD über 20% der Stimmen kriegt. Einmal AfD immer AfD, denn denen ist ja nicht zu helfen.

Ich frage mich nur warum diese ganzen Faschisten die ja auch schon vorher unter uns gewesen sein müssen nicht schon 2021 AfD gewählt haben. Was hat die ganzen Faschos unter uns davon abgehalten NPD zu wählen bevor es die AfD gab?

Die AfD ist ohne Zweifel Faschistisch, aber wenn du auch die Wähler als Faschisten bezeichnest führt es nur dazu, dass sie dir nicht zuhören und dann trotzdem in 12 Jahren sagen das es ihnen ja niemand gesagt hat und es niemand gewusst hat.
