  • Still, there's a lot of room there for some grace. I don't think it's unreasonable to strip them of the award, but the level of outrage I'm seeing in this thread and elsewhere isn't proportionate to the offense.

    People really need to chill with this.

  • People keep saying the problem 'wasnt that they used AI placeholder assets, it's that they lied on the disclosure', but boy does that still seem like a reach

    When you have dozens of people working on a huge creative project, it would take an almost omniscient creative director to know where every asset in every scene came from with certainty. It isn't hard to imagine a designer somewhere on the team sneaking an AI asset into a pre-release build and forgetting about it. The fact that it was later disclosed suggests that whoever was applying for the award wasn't aware of that asset being used and then replaced at the time of submission.

    I dont mind having some awards dedicated to genAI-free works, but people really need to stop getting their pitchforks out at every mention, otherwise they risk turning into a lynch mob. This doesnt sound like an intentional omission to me.

  • 14 years of experience has made me much more sympathetic to that man than I was when this first went viral

    I have definitely had this experience with my dog, except it was a flock of ducks and he swam halfway across a lake after them

  • That's a 10/10 headline, no notes

  • if you compare the Democrat and the Republican running in that race you'll find

    This is the fucking problem, right here.

    People dont make """"rational"""" choices when they're driven toward frustration and desparation, and democrats marketing themselves as 'not republicans' in lieu of offering any significant change is a massive source of that desparation.

  • Does anyone know what the ethical objections acrually were here?

    I would have thought they would have specifically called out data falsification if that were the problem that resulted in the paper being pulled - otherwise it leaves the door open to misinterpretation

  • That is where they were learning about what happened on October 7th, what happened in the days, weeks, and months to follow.

    You missed the part being referenced in the headline. She isnt just talking about Oct 7 but everything that took place following it. Her complaint wouldnt make sense in any other context, and it's the same complaint Netanyahu and Blinken have made, too.

  • Im not really talking about things like USAID, I'm talking about his consolidation of power broadly and the normalization of the abuse of presidential power

    • If trump dies, Vance doesnt need to be elected or Trump's popularity
    • The longer it takes for him to die, the more time he has to erode democratic structures that would prevent a technocrat like Vance from installing themselves permanently

    Frankly I think we missed the window for the good version of him dying - especially if he dies abruptly in a way that could be spun into suspicion

  • Disagree.

    Democrats have the leverage now, and there isn't any reason why Republicans can't put a temporary extension in the ACA credits now anyway.

    Buying time does nothing for democrats but gives Republicans slack to change the focus before committing to anything. This is a cowardly backpeddle, not a calculated maneuver

  • Why the fuck did they start offering concessions and bargaining after they swept the state elections last week?

    More evidence that moderates are not allies and are just as fearful of a leftward popular swing as the Republicans are.

  • I can't wait for angry liberals to blame leftists for another historic loss after they choose to run Newsom against all reason.

  • Why do people keep sharing this as if it's an achievement?

    Newsom and his tech donors can go get fucked.

  • I'm glad we're on the same page now.

  • K so Schwarzenegger? You think Schwarzenegger would be ok?

    What about Obama, if we're entertaining ineligible candidates?

    Zorahn doesnt even rank right now, but he's your guy for no reason other than his charisma?

  • I want you to defend their least popular policies and tell me ive missed some magic context that makes this statement true.

  • TO QUALIFY FOR VICE PRESIDENT YOU MUST BE A NATURAL BORN US CITIZEN

  • Democrats always have great policies.

    Lmao they always have what now?
