jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's your thought on AI generated content?54·6 months agoA quick search, and I was able to find a couple of AI sites that can create songs.
Trial and error, go for it!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's your thought on AI generated content?23·6 months agoNicely done, AI-generated response!
Which did you use?
I also think it is a tool being used to help push out whatever content the person using it wants.
It may be seen in the history books as akin to the Industrial Revolution.
The Industrial Revolution, sometimes divided into the First Industrial Revolution and Second Industrial Revolution, was a period of global transition of the human economy towards more widespread, efficient and stable manufacturing processes that succeeded the Agricultural Revolution. Beginning in Great Britain, the Industrial Revolution spread to continental Europe and the United States, from around 1760 to about 1820–1840. This transition included going from hand production methods to machines; new chemical manufacturing and iron production processes; the increasing use of water power and steam power; the development of machine tools; and the rise of the mechanised factory system. Output greatly increased, and the result was an unprecedented rise in population and the rate of population growth. The textile industry was the first to use modern production methods, and textiles became the dominant industry in terms of employment, value of output, and capital invested.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's your thought on AI generated content?16·6 months agoI think it is the future of media and content sharing for those that can afford it or know how to use it.
It is just another tool being used to create the content you desire.
Improvements are needed, but I have seen really well-done ones where a general introductory topic is discussed.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What will always be cringe-inducing to you?101·7 months agoApologetics and celebrity worshippers: people that defend politicians instead of being critical and forcing them to bend to the will of the working class.

Another big one is Peter Thiel.

Crikey is an independent Australian source for news, investigations, analysis and opinion focusing on politics, media, economics, health, international affairs, the climate, business, society and culture. We are guided by a deceptively simple, old idea: tell the truth and shame the devil.
Interesting.
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What factors do you think contributed to the "Reddit Hivemind"? How do you believe it can be avoided?84·11 months agoIMO: tribal thinking.
It comes down to “they do not think like I want them to or they won’t agree with me, so I will downvote posts.”
Controversial topics are even more downvoting just to downvote.
The self-built echo chambers are already constructed; self-censorship and anything outside of their views and sources are dismissed, labeled, and smeared so as to not think about the information being shared.
It happens everywhere; the status quo is welcomed, while anything outside of it will seem controversial or extreme.

- Noob Guide to Installing Linux Mint on 2014 MacBook Air [07:47 | FEB 05 2024 | jailbrayk] https://youtu.be/x4nbafBOB4Y
This process should work on any Intel Mac pre 2018 (without T2 security chip & secure boot). Thanks for the suggestion to install Linux on this old MacBook Air! It has brought new life to this old computer and I am really enjoying getting to know Linux, as I have never really used Linux in this capacity. Let me know if you would like a more in depth video of how I set up my Linux environment!
jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Do you approve sex work? Why or why not?127·11 months agoEdit3: improved wording a bit, and added info below; forgot to add this edit
Legalize and regulate.
I share this view with other issues our society faces as well.
Edit: forgot why.
Why:
Sex work as well as drugs will never be outlawed or enforced fully; looking at drugs, it is used as an excuse to jail the working class for slave labor as well as other things when you follow the money.[1]
Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.[2]

“A man chooses. A slave obeys.”
“We all make choices, but in the end… our choices make us.”
Quotes are by Andrew Ryan.

There are also groups that voted for Obama, then turned around and voted for Trump.
Obama: Hope.
Trump: Drain the swap.
They might have learned to never trust a politician at face value.

Maybe, just maybe, it is due to the continuation of the status quo, similar to warmonger Hillary Clinton.

You don’t have to let them in your home or do too much, but I would offer them a box with food, plenty of water, and a basic care package.
We all need to make time to join in helping our local communities. 1 hour a year is much more helpful than 0 hours a year.

jimmydoreisalefty@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What will happen to all the USA TikTok creators once the ban on TikTok takes effect?33·1 year agoGovernment censorship will cause TikTok’s services in the US to shut down, which will result in most users moving to another social media platform.
I think most people already use multiple platforms, so the only difference will be the time they put into their new main social media.
