  • I think if any other (smaller) site were continually posting CSAM without moderation, it would be banned.

    On what legal grounds would that happen?

  • Uh. You do understand that this law breaking includes not cracking down hard enough on illegal content? Like that Hamas slogan?

  • What is?

  • I don't think you can do literally the same thing on the Epstein files. Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you have in mind.

  • There were reports of people trying to unredact the files almost immediately.

  • As you can tell from the previous answers: It depends.

    The bigger an LLM is, the more power it uses. AI models can be quantized or distilled to yield smaller but less capable models. Providers may try to route you to the cheapest model that can handle your prompt.

    Another question is the length of the output. The length of the input matters less but might be relevant for processing long texts.

    The energy used for training is relatively insignificant once you average it over its lifetime. The energy efficiency of a particular data center will certainly matter more.

    Providers like OpenAI claim that the typical query uses about 0.3Wh. That's about the same as an idling phone charger uses in an hour; ie charger plugged into the outlet but not into the phone.

  • People in the English-speaking countries generally don't have government issued ID beyond a driver's license. That's also true for the UK. Historically, ID cards are connected to military conscription. The UK could rely on the Navy for defense and did not maintain vast land armies like the continental nations. Political initiatives to introduce ID cards are usually rejected by voters as totalitarian overreach.

    The former slave states in the US have a history of using procedural rules to exclude blacks from voting. After the end of slavery, there was formally equality before the law. So, laws were created to maintain the status quo that were non-discriminatory on their face. EG literacy tests. This not only targeted blacks who were denied an education. Administering such tests was fully in the hands of local elites. They could be made arbitrarily hard to black people, while politically reliable white illiterates could be excused.

  • Legally, the people in the polling station may require you to show ID. It's just never done.

  • This is about GDPR. A German court recently made a similar judgment wrt TikTok, but that is being appealed.

  • I remember a guy about 3 years ago trying that grift with images. Went nowhere because the images it flagged as the "source" looked nothing like the generated images. In music, it might be more successful. Marvin Gaye's estate showed the way.

  • Hmm. What are the chances that they manage to sneak such a fraudulent scheme past courts or lawmakers?

  • I don't need an incentive to be truthful. I don't know why someone should misrepresent readily checkable facts.

  • Is that clickfarm your moneymaker? jfc

  • I heard that the reason why no one uses the ID card option is that the privatized post office lobbied the government to make it so expensive as not to compete with their service.

  • That may be part of the reason they are doing this. There's a noticeable push for more regulation and enforcement.

  • You never want to know how the sausage is made.

  • When I saw a model trained on DOOM 1-2 years ago, I didn't think this would be going anywhere. I have to admit, I was wrong. Now, the amazing potential is obvious.

  • Genie, quit livin' on dreams

    Genie, life is not what it seems

    Genie!
