Plus the bands that open for the bands I like. Even if I don’t go to the concert, I look up who’s opening it.

I use Tidal and I’ve never heard anything AI-generated there. How’d you bump into it?


I never bought into religion, never bought into astrology, never gonna buy into chatbots
You can tell me I’m great and everything will be amazing 1,000 times. It doesn’t matter at all to me if it’s not real
I like to escape into music or movies, but real life is real life and must not be corrupted


I almost did too. Should’ve been uppercase


The less popular ones still do it by hand mostly.
Oh, my! 🫢


Now this is quality journalism
This is why I only read Playboy for the articles


If someone used my face and voice to make money without so much as asking me I’d be pissed off too.
In 2023, Scarlett Johansson’s attorney demanded that an AI app stop using her likeness in an advertisement. The actor also called out OpenAI in 2024 for using an “eerily similar” voice to hers for their GPT-4o chatbot despite having declined the company’s request to provide her voice. OpenAI subsequently announced it would no longer be using the voice, but did not indicate why.
In 2024, Tom Hanks called out the “multiple ads over the internet falsely using my name, likeness, and voice promoting miracle cures and wonder drugs.”
Look at this shit. This is illegal as fuck. Imagine being a doctor and some RFK-type podcaster uses your name, face and voice to promote some hack cure and destroys your reputation.
And they ASKED Johansson and she said no and they still did it. Fuckin AI motherfuckers. No shame


Hey, you! Yea, you reading this.
This scan won’t work on you. The app will get lost in your eyes. 😏


Crime seems so easy
To think I’m here, working my ass off and still broke, when I could be swimming in “These pills will grow your dick by 3 inches” money


Draw a dick with your cursor every 5 minutes


Who’s your distributor? I used SongTradr for a while and I’m looking for a new one for my next release


Spot deez nuts!


I don’t have a lot to give in this world. Despite working hard I’m not earning much, but I believe it’s important for each and every one of us to give a little of the little we have. So today I give you my downvote. Please take good care of it.


Awwww, silly little Microsoft is upset the browser monopoly isn’t theirs


I mean… it’s just been introduced
And according to this site it has a 1% chance of being enacted? What’s that about?


Bad actors submitting garbage code aren’t going to read the documentation anyway, so the kernel should focus on holding human developers accountable rather than trying to police the software they run on their local machines.
“Guns don’t kill people. People kill people”
Torvalds and the maintainers are acknowledging reality: developers are going to use AI tools to code faster, and trying to ban them is like trying to ban a specific brand of keyboard.
The author should elaborate on how exactly AI is like “a specific brand of keyboard”. Last I checked a keyboard only enters what I type, without hallucinating 50 extra pages. And if AI, a tool that generates content, is like “a specific brand of keyboard”, does that mean my brain is also a “specific brand of keyboard”?
I get their point. If you want to create good code by having AI create bad code and then spending twice the time to fix it, feel free to do that. But I’m in favor of a complete ban.


Room for one more? 😉


Solid burn


Nah, this is a practice in America. John Oliver did an episode on it but I can’t remember for the life of me what the main topic was.
Don’t worry. They’ll figure smth out. Probably some kind of pay-to-work scheme, like a reverse internship
