As am I.

No shit. This has been a problem with movies for decades. Somebody starts on an idea, and there’s already another studio trying to clone that idea. Blade and Vampires. Antz and A Bug’s Life.
And then when it comes out and is successful enough, you have all of the straight-to-video clones, and a couple of porn clones.

- Comment on hypersniper05/MCP-Image-Generator-Uncensored: Self-hosted MCP server for image generation and editing with the uncensored Qwen-Image-2.1 model 1 week ago:
Why tie it to a model? Just have the model as a parameter or config option.
Also, it didn’t even dawn on me how easy it would be to use a MCP to tie together the main text-based LLM to a pure text-to-image generator.
- Comment on I Sent an AI to My Job Interview. So Did the Company. 1 week ago:
Yeah, all of Graham Dot Zip’s interviews are fake. One of his videos had a separate tab, where it was obvious he was prompting an agent for the setup.
His entire channel is just this whole fake premise.

It’s like bean mouth with animated movies and cartoons.
It turns out that most people weren’t that creative, anyway.

You’re the one that equated “unpopularity” with “not a viable solution” with that ~1% response.
Popularity and technical viability have nothing to do with each other. It’s just that the former requires a lot of marketing to push the general public forward, way more than is necessary in my opinion.
- Comment on [Technology Connections] My water heater is cooler than yours 1 month ago:
Solar panels make up ~1% of all residential power generation. I guess that means it’s a horrible way to generate power, right? 🙄
- Comment on [Technology Connections] My water heater is cooler than yours 1 month ago:
If you watch the video, you’ll understand that the temperature transfer process to a hot water tank is incredibly slow. So, water tanks are not a very good battery.
I mean, unless you want to spend 12 hours trying to dry your clothes.

Not sure how that statement is right-leaning.
- Comment on Scientist says RAM pricing has risen to normalized 2007 levels, AI shortage undid 20 years of progress in a matter of months — memory prices had been falling exponentially for decades 2 months ago:
I partially blame the whole Oracle / OpenAI / NVIDIA cabal.
But, let’s not ignore the memory cartel’s involvement in this sham. Shitbags left themselves vulnerable to a demand crash with tiny numbers of competitors (three), tiny amounts of facilities to produce RAM, and the corporate stranglehold to keep it that way.

Not typically in the world of YouTube. That’s kind of the point.

- Comment on AI-generated stories rated better quality than human-written ones, study finds 2 months ago:
And what is your plan exactly?
- Comment on AI-generated stories rated better quality than human-written ones, study finds 2 months ago:
There’s only two choices:
- Learn how it works, adapt it to your lifestyle, use it as a weapon against the rich fucks that try to use it against you.
- Continue to act like luddites, bury your head in the sand, and pretend that it will go away. Which it won’t.
That’s it. Those are the choices. Most are sucking in that copeium for the second option.
- Comment on AI-generated stories rated better quality than human-written ones, study finds 2 months ago:
I think a lot of it depends on the model and the amount of context it has. LLMs usually get worse with time because they are running out of context, or they don’t have a good summarization of the story at large. For story-writing, it’s best to have a full outline planned and set up as its own Markdown doc, along with critiques on things you think don’t make sense or just don’t like as a plot device. Then, start a new session with each section, keeping it in a Markdown doc as it goes. Some sort of character doc is probably a good idea, too. Give it as much reference material as possible.
It’s just like planning features for code. You don’t just say “gimme a story like blah”. You have to set it up like writers write movies.

- Comment on Copyright Is Not Enough: Why writers need new strategies to stand up to AI. 2 months ago:
The fucked up thing about AI right now is that AI companies get to act like we’re in a post-copyright world, pirating from literally everyone, while the rest of us are still stuck in copyright hell.
That’s the double-standard that they always upheld. Two large companies play by the rules. One large company against a small artist? The company steals as long as they can get away with it.
Marathon vs. Antireal is a prime example. They steal her artwork and style, put it in the game, and get away with it. The only reason they settled and paid her was because:
- They got caught
- The evidence was obvious
- The bad PR was affecting their sales
If any of those weren’t true, they would have gotten away with it, stolen it outright, and not paid her at all.
No AI involved in any of that. No need when corporations already held the power for centuries.
I don’t think it’s realistic that the rich will dismantle IP in the name of AI progress
I think they’ll accidentally do so, by creating so much from AI and a judge declares that it can’t be copyrighted because X% is AI generated, and existing precedent already required human input for copyrighted material.

I replaced it with a Patricia Taxxon video, so fuck Grey. He seemed to not get the point of his own damn video.

Well, that’s a damn shame. I guess I’ll have to find a different source for the history of copyright.
