If artists were compensated for their art being fed through the AI to feed the algorithm, sure. They are not. It’s not too dissimilar from our comments and data being farmed to better other LLMs and that is intellectual theft as well.

Yeah, my high school had a similar issue. There was an “alternative” school that was basically worse in every capacity and every deviant student or pregnant student was “encouraged” to transfer. The wild thing was you would still walk the stage with everyone from the initial high school so graduation day was like 20% people you didn’t even know or thought they moved away.

Haven’t checked in a while but I think my personal record is 1400+ hrs in Europa Universalis IV.

Tokyo Ghoul and Tokyo Ghoul:Re. A decade late but I loved it.
