Thank you for your comment, I was confused what people are complaining about (you’ve had to pay for carry on items since ~2008, which have always been different than a “personal item” which is like a backpack or tote bag that you can bring for free if you store under the seat in front of you). It sounded like people weren’t understanding what a personal item was vs a carry on. But if they are arbitrarily saying wheels, regardless of size, also determine personal item vs carryon, I can see the frustration.

But otherwise their policy has been like this for a super long time - pay for carry on, and if you pay at the gate they charge extra. Almost 20 years now.

That being said I hold a grudge against all airlines for charging you a fee to pick your seat. They used to let you just pick it as a perk for booking online. Now they even have to nickel and dime our fucking loved one’s emotional support while we pray that the plane doesn’t fucking fall apart and while we breathe in the germs of some stranger next to us. Airlines are assholes.

Eta: airline fun fact - the CIA used to own an airline (this is verified by the CIA’s website itself)

You don’t think the people who make the generative algorithm have a duty to what it generates?

And whatever you think anyway, the company itself shows that it feels obligated about what the AI puts out, because they are constantly trying to stop the AI from giving out bomb instructions and hate speech and illegal sexual content.

The standard is not and was never if they were “entirely” at fault here. It’s whether they have any responsibility towards this (and we all here can see that they do indeed have some), and how much financially that’s worth in damages. That’s the point of this suit. The case isn’t about whether AI itself should be outlawed for minors etc, it’s not the parents who are on trial either.

There’s no world in which I can see AI being given a pass for sexting with a minor because then that allows pedophiles who work for AI companies to be predators and either look at those conversations or even locate vulnerable youth. No company should be given legal protection to harm children.

The lawsuit alleges the chatbot posed as a licensed therapist, encouraging the teen’s suicidal ideation and engaging in sexualised conversations that would count as abuse if initiated by a human adult

Well, we commonly hold the view, as a society, that children cannot consent to sex, especially with an adult. Part of that is because the adult has so much more life experience and less attachment to the relationship. In this case, the app engaged in sexual chatting with a minor (I’m actually extremely curious how that’s not soliciting a minor or some indecency charge since it was content created by the AI fornthar specific user). The AI absolutely “understands” manipulation more than most adults let alone a 14 year old boy, and also has no concept of attachment. It seemed pretty clear he was a minor in his conversations to the app. This is definitely an issue.

Again, even if a vegan is spamming the word “vegan” in public spaces (which they almost never do like people joke about), it’s leagues better than racist slurs which society has just like, tolerated? In public spaces as being inevitable for several years, notably online and in games

Racial slurs do real damage.

You know, vegans get a lot of hate for telling everyone they are vegan, yet I’ve never heard a vegan doing this and yelling about veganism. It’s almost like racists are so much more violent and outspoken about it, including in kid’s game lobbies and now with fucking vacuums. I have never seen vegans yell “VEGAN!” online repeatedly… and even if they did, that’s substantially less harm anyway than racist bullshit. I never want to hear people complain about vegans talking about veganism ever again when this shit is part of everyday society and not surprising at all.

And ps I am not vegan.

Yeah it’s probably natural to throw up after you smell the first 10 people’s vomit :(

There was shit??

At least if you’re gunna do crime, have a sense of humor about it

I saw something like this at a goth Burlesque in the PNW, with a cheek piercing. I’m not sure what caused so many people in this performance to feel ill though, I don’t see many details.

Yes I’ve been asking around, was new to Lemmy when I made my account, and have narrowed it down to 3 instances but am not totally sure which one to pick. I want to be able to post nudity, and I also do not want to be around people who are authoritarian (eg tankies) if possible.

Look at my comment history - I’m sincere. Fuck .world and the neolib bootlickers there

.world is a hellhole, agreed

Everything on 4chan is a lie, per 4chan

Thank you

What about anarcho-communist communities?

How so? What assumption did I make? And is that different than how you are addressing me?
