Not even the ghost of obsolescence can coerce users onto Windows 11
  • This time really is different because windows is ending updates for windows 10 in 2025 AND they will not allow many computers to upgrade to windows 11, your only choice is to buy a new computer, which obviously isn't an option for everyone.

    I built my gaming PC in 2017 and it still runs all the games and editing programs I want, but it is not eligible to upgrade to W11 because their DRM won't work on my processor.

  • Seriously?
  • This is an audio prompt which you must listen to and then type. OP correctly typed the sentence but didn't know how the speaker prefers to spell their name and so it was marked incorrect.

  • LEAST favorite CAKE song?
  • I like Cake's music a lot however the one time I saw them live I have to say it was one of the worst live performances I've seen from a band. It really didn't capture the magic of their music, and didn't sound like their recordings at all. This was at Loufest 2014.

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • I get how LLMs work and I think they're really cool. I'm just trying to explain why OpenAI is currently limiting these abilities to continue operating within our legal system. Hopefully the court cases find that there is in fact a difference between publishing the information on a normal website versus discussing it with a chatbot so that they don't have to be limited like this.

    Publishing lyrics publicly online is illegal while communicating them privately in a chatroom is probably fine. Communicating them in a public forum is a grey area, but you likely won't be caught or prosecuted. If a big company hosts an AI chatbot which can tell you the lyrics to any song on demand, then that seems like an illegal service unless they have the rights.

    Feel free to look up the legality of publishing lyrics online, all I saw was information saying that it is illegal but they don't prosecute anyone but the larger companies.

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • It's not legal for anyone (human or not) to put song lyrics online without permission/license to do so. I was googling this to make sure I understood it correctly and it seems that reproducing the lyrics to music without permission to do so is copyright infringement. There are some lyrics websites that work with music companies to get licensing to post lyrics but most websites host them illegally and will them then down if they receive a DMCA request.

  • Thousands of authors demand payment from AI companies for use of copyrighted works
  • Well, they're fixing that now. I just asked chatgpt to tell me the lyrics to stairway to heaven and it replied with a brief description of who wrote it and when, then said here are the lyrics: It stopped 3 words into the lyrics.

    In theory as long as it isn't outputting the exact copyrighted material, then all output should be fair use. The fact that it has knowledge of the entire copyrighted material isn't that different from a human having read it, assuming it was read legally.
