PSA: The latest NVIDIA App update adds a Default-ON option that allows AI Agents to control the app... Might want to turn it off.. Even aside from being lame AI features, that feels like making security even worse by defaulting it ON.
Screenshot of the Nvidia app's "Settings > Features" section.
Showing the newly added "AI Agents and App Connections" section.
The option for "Allow Agents to control NVIDIA App" is enabled by default.
This happened in version 11.0.9.565

It’s so laughably naive for anyone to say genAI can be used “ethically“. The cat is already out of the bag, the models are already trained on stolen work. Even if you could build viable models on only rights-free work there would still be the issue of energy use, inaccurate output, etc. Be for real.

Manga page from the way of the house husband, written and illustrated by Kousuke Oono, where Masa (an underling of the main character former gang) says “I’ve never used chat got in my life” and his aura is so powerful it burst out of him and push away all the other members of the gang.

(Original text says “I’ve never smoked a cigarette in my life”)

Webtoons is a brand name. People have been calling the medium "webcomics" for about thirty or so years now. I think this distinction is important.

Discord is going to reintroduce Global Age Verification, which restricts teen accounts.
Teens will face several limitations:
- Blocked access to NSFW channels and servers
- Sensitive media automatically blurred in chats and direct messages
- Mandatory message requests for incoming texts
- Restricted speaking access in Stage Channels
To lift these restrictions, unverified adults can confirm their age via one of the following options:
- Credit Card checks via k-ID x Stripe
- Official ID through k-ID
- Selfie
- Google Wallet

Some people might not be aware, but it is entirely possible that without Dolly Parton we wouldn’t have had a COVID vaccine. She partly funded Moderna’s research and gave the largest individual contribution to make it all happen. Just gives you an idea of the kind of person she was.

I was wondering why it looked off as I read it. I'm happy to realize it's just how they coloured it. I think Webtoon has a fear of having black and white comics cuz I never see any on their originals.

I knew about the AI translations, it was literally mentioned on their site (their Notice section had something about it). But the other one kind of gives me the ick. Webtoon is known for having stories that feel recycled, that feels like a new low.

I got into webcomics through websites before going to Webtoon. Making webcomics much more corporate and less indie removes the appeal for me. I still want to support human artists, but more & more I see so many cool projects go under the radar because of corporates. Support Indie creators & cites

It's not enough to be against AI, you need to be pro art. You need to be a champion of the art you love, you need to share that passion and joy, and do what you can to support the artists who make it, because it's not enough to hate AI, to hate what it's doing to art and media; you gotta love.
