"Shame, then, is a human tool—a vital one—for negotiating the borders between ought-to-be and ought-not-to-be. Positive space defines negative space. Demonstrations of decency shames the indecent. Principles shame their lack. Solidarity shames bigotry." www.the-reframe.com/the-extraord...

It will never stop being funny to me that the street fighter subreddit has a much better, well reasoned ai policy vis a vis literally all universities.

Hi, thanks for posting! We do appreciate you thinking of us even though we have to moderate.

Our stance on all AI generated content (Images, Video, Voiceovers, and whatever else LLM based AI gets up to in the future):

At best, they are approximations of street fighter characters as the AI has no clue what it is trying to create. Because of this, there is no street fighter content so they are not allowed. (rule 1)

Also, they aren't allowed per our source rule. As AI sources cannot be tracked, we must assume that they use uncredited sources in the learning data. (rule 5)

Finally, AI images, video, text, and voiceovers are barely any different than posting a screenshot of a google search. The level of effort is so low that we consider it spam (rule 3).

Because of these reasons, AI art and other AI content is not allowed.

If you would like to contact the moderators about this removal, you can do so here.

sylvia townsend warner in 1926, foreseeing the type of author who would use AI:

"That offensive young man at the Sabbath ,"
she remarked , "I know he wasn't you . Who
was he?"
"He's one of these brilliant young authors ,"
replied the Devil . "I believe Titus knows
him . He sold me his soul on the condition that
once a week he should be without doubt the
most important person at a party ."
"Why didn't he sell his soul in order to be-
come a great writer ? Then he could have had
the party into the bargain .”
"He preferred to take a short- cut , you see . ”

"Listen. I don't like to preach, but here's some advice. You'll meet a lot of jerks in life. If they hurt you, remember it's because they're stupid. Don't react to their cruelty. There's nothing worse than bitterness and revenge. Keep your dignity and be true to yourself." - Marjane Satrapi

I tell the rogues to read, read, read, read, read. Those who read own the world; those who immerse themselves in the internet or watch too much television lose it... Our civilization is suffering profound wounds because of the wholesale abandonment of reading by contemporary society. — Werner Herzog

Yes — “The older I get, the more I realize, I don’t want a busy life. I want a deep life. Slow mornings. Focused work. Calm people. Meaningful progress. Good books. A quiet mind at night. Nothing flashy. Nothing trendy. Just a life that feels good to live. Depth over noise. That'll do.“ Karun Pal

Secretary Rubio's remarks indicate that Israel put U.S. forces in harm's way by insisting on attacking Iran. And the administration was complicit—joining their war instead of talking them down. This is unacceptable of the President, and unacceptable of a country that calls itself our ally.
