AI companies are most certainly making an effort to profit from the content they're deriving from copyrighted works.

Not me, but two people I knew.

The first was an exchange student from Ecuador who attended my high school. She actually cried. The other time she told me she cried was when she started dreaming in English instead of Spanish.

The second was a girl I knew in college who had moved up from Florida to attend Ohio State. The first snow that year was that dry snow that blows around, but there was enough of it that everything was covered.

Walking back to our dorm, she kept gathering up handfuls, trying to make a snowball, and she asked if we could make a snowman. We told her it wouldn't work because this is not snowman snow, and she was mystified. "There's snowman snow??"

First time we had that good, heavy, wet, sticky snow, we took her out and made a 7-foot-tall snowman haha

This is the one they were waiting for. There are several live cams trained on the area, and one of them caught the exact moment it erupted:

The kool-aid is laced, kid. You should put it down.

The bigger problem is that it teaches kids that they are powerless and must appease authorities. It took me the better part of my 20s to figure out that I hold just as much power as my boss and I don't have to appease anyone.

AI trained on plagiarized art created by real humans who were not compensated for work that AI companies are now making money on.

Aka stealing

Definitely makes me happy to put some action behind my genuine love of these owls (and birds in general)

Christ, just give cash money to the people harmed by this trash. And also prosecute the Sacklers for murder and put them in prison forever.

I completely disagree with the sentiment here. My 40s have been great because they marked the point in my life when I finally lost my last fuck to give.

The freedom that provides is worth not being able to drink the way I used to in my 30s. Enjoy that achievement.

Dude, this is so amazing, thank you! I just found a raptor rescue a couple towns over from me that I didn't even know existed because I never thought to look. I'm donating to them for Christmas. Thanks for bringing this to our attention

These are so great, thank you for all the time and effort you put into this sub. It's been a real highlight for me during a tough time.

Edit: Here's how it looks on the Boost for Lemmy app, for anyone curious
