  • Age verification is ID verification. By requiring ID site owners effectively have a monopoly on the bot armies infesting reddit, YouTube, Facebook, etc. These armies aren’t going away. They are just getting smarter and more influential with AI.

    Everyone is focusing on the privacy aspect and glossing over the fact that these laws give Silicon Valley complete control over online discourse. They’ll know who exactly who you are and how best to manipulate you with their bots.



  • For me at least it’s that the perspective is off. When someone is learning to draw or is just a shitty artist and the perspective isn’t very good you can immediately identify it. It looks like someone drew “front” eyes on the side of the head or something like that. When AI makes an image, the perspective is off, just in a different ways. The eye doesn’t look like a “front” eye or a “side” eye or a “top” eye. It looks like all of them and none of them. It makes the entire thing unsettling.











  • Uber: We just facilitate rides between our “independent contractors” and customers. We’re not liable for anything that happens

    Amazon: We just facilitate purchases between our “independent retailers” and customers. We’re not liable for anything that happens

    AirBnB: We just facilitate rentals between our “independent landlords” and customers. We’re not liable for anything that happens

    It’s nice to see the first steps in destroying this completely BS business model. Hopefully this can start a domino effect.
