Yeah, unfortunately, they’re good at what they do. Hopefully a better service will come along, or archive.org improves their archival methods. It’s also going to be hard to find a service that ignores requests to delete archived pages.
Obviously, scanning the content of messages and content is controversial, but Apple says it performs the scan on the device. Users can also turn the feature off in the settings. “Sensitive Content Warning uses on-device machine learning to analyze photos and videos. Because they’re analyzed on your device, Apple doesn’t receive an indication that nudity was detected and doesn’t get access to the photos or videos as a result,” its website adds.
I’d rather these kind of systems be set up to run locally like this, even better that we are given control to disable it. For the ML model it’s a balance between too many false positives and too many false negatives.
We probably should find a better archive service:

It’s a cat and mouse game.
The more popular something is, the more likely tools will be made to circumvent it.
In this case the author is advertising their tool as a method to circumvent Anubis:
By taking on the meme generator, Saflor may hit a wall if the court finds that his arguments apply to any meme generator and a finding in his favor could risk undercutting the entire meme ecosystem, Goldman said.
This will definitely be an interesting case to watch unfold. In my opinion it could definitely be a win if websites that run any kind of meme generator are forced to pay the official artist to have their template on their site.
This doesn’t really seem fitting to this sub, but I guess this is tech related news because they have multiple websites?
In most countries, the output of a single prompt will not be copyrightable. However, once someone starts arranging the output into something more, then copyright can be applied.
Overall, it depends on the country, but in some they are asking their legislators for clarification. Many are trying to apply pre-existing copyright laws to LLMs.
The U.S. Copyright Office wrote up a report about this and included a list of how other countries are handling it.

Certainly looks interesting, but I have to mention that I’m not a fan of the Discord Rich Presence feature. The directory access that this typically requires immediately bumps up any flatpak to a medium risk category.
Granted I’m definitely one of those users that does not care to share my current status to all other users as to what I’m watching/listening to at every moment.
That article completely practically skips over the section in the report that says that copyright can be applied by compilation to an overall work. See section II - F: “Modifying or Arranging AI-Generated Content”
Or you can also just skip to the conclusion of the actual report itself:
As described above, in many circumstances these outputs will be copyrightable in whole or in part—where AI is used as a tool, and where a human has been able to determine the expressive elements they contain. Prompts alone, however, at this stage are unlikely to satisfy those requirements.
https://www.copyright.gov/ai/Copyright-and-Artificial-Intelligence-Part-2-Copyrightability-Report.pdf
Edit: The article you linked does mention that the works can be copyrighted as a whole, but it does not mention this in the conclusion.
According to the U.S. Copyright Office, it absolutely can, but it depends on how much control the user exerts on the final product.
If a single prompt was used and they copy pasted the entire thing, then yes, as you have said, it is not copyrightable.
However, if multiple prompts were used and the end result is compiled/arranged with enough direction by the end user, then it can be copyrighted by compilation.
Generating content with AI is often an initial or intermediate step, and human authorship may be added in the final product. As explained in the AI Registration Guidance, “a human may select or arrange AI-generated material in a sufficiently creative way that ‘the resulting work as a whole constitutes an original work of authorship.’”¹²⁶ A human may also “modify material originally generated by AI technology to such a degree that the modifications meet the standard for copyright protection.”¹²⁷
As several commenters noted, human authors should be able to claim copyright if they select, coordinate, and arrange AI-generated material in a creative way.¹²⁸ This would provide protection for the output as a whole (although not the AI-generated material alone).¹²⁹ A relatively common scenario in registration applications is the combination of human-authored text with AI-generated images. In one early case, for instance, the Office found that the selection and arrangement of AI-generated images with human-authored text in a comic book were protectable as a compilation.
You really should know by now how scrutinous people are about AI anything.
Well, we are on the Fediverse here where there’s a very loud echo chamber of anti-AI sentiment. Outside of this bubble, there’s a loud minority that’s anti-AI, but the vast majority of end users are more neutral on the subject.
For any AI Translations, it’s good practice to open up a different chat with the model, and have it translate the output back to your original language so that you can double check what is being said.
That’s more of a “there is no such thing as bad publicity” angle to the situation.
A copay is the amount that you pay for certain healthcare expenses. The rest is paid for by your insurance company.
knowingly, intentionally continue to fund neo-Nazis in Sweden.
Am I understanding you correctly that you’re accusing anyone who continues to use Mullvad as someone who supports neo-Nazis in Sweden?
Edit: I was thinking of the default defederation list
As far as I understand it, it’s not “hardcoded” in the sense that all piefed instances have it (otherwise I wouldn’t be able to respond to you).
From what I understand, there is a default list, but this can be edited by any instance admins.
Yeah, it happens. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I probably could have been more helpful by listing out some specific features, so I went back and edited them in.
Looks like someone is already asking them for clarification in this thread here: https://codeberg.org/Codeberg/Community/issues/2929
Maybe the banner will be updated to more closely match what Defnulls said. Unless that banner changes it’s certainly not a stretch to say that “Cryptocurrency projects are no longer allowed.”
It’s similar to Lemmy, but with more features and has better integration with Mastodon.
On Android, SherpaTTS pulls in a number of different Piper and Coqui voice models. They definitely sound a lot better than this.
