"But if it was limited only to public domain it couldn't function like it does!" I mean: a) That's why I noted "licensed and compensated works" b) It doesn't excuse IP theft or materially argue for the value of a tech apparently only possible through IP theft c) It's not too late to compensate!

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

Shout out to our driver yesterday who warned us about rogue road closures in Florence and how often people get tickets for failing to realize it. Google maps was zero help there. 🫠

TIL. Sienna and Firenze are not friends even now. The cypress trees are planted near roads because they hold and stabilize the stones used for the roads (strade bianche).

Mostly a driving day but we're here in Tuscany now. Amazeballs roadside gas station sandwiches. Everyone had a massage, dinner was great, the hotel is 🔥 Italy 10/10

Up early! Grabbed our rental car, managed to fit 4 humans and too many bags. Stopped at an Auto Grille and had an amazing cappuccino. Almost to Scanno in the mountains in Abruzzo.

Today was a long day and it's not over yet. And I definitely added an extra hour of driving for myself but I got to spend an hour with my Grandma. She'll be 90 in March. And that hour was totally worth it. 🖤

I've basically been in the car since 9:30 this morning running errands. The good news is so far everything is going well. The best thing that's happened is that there was a convenient place to get a decent cappuccino after my fifth stop. 😅

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

Dear Uber driver. No amount of deodorizer will hide that you recently smoked in this car. I can't tell which stench is worse. The stale smoke or the deodorizer. They both give me a headache. Smoke in your car if you want but don't sign up as a comfort vehicle for Uber, cause it ain't 😒

Thanks Chicago, a great time as always (even if I didn't get a Chicago dog OR a slice of purple velvet cake from Jennivee's 😓). Headed to the airport and now on to DC.

Just gonna light this bag of dogshit on fire and walk away from the doorstep, but the people in media I hear saying AI has made them "more productive" appear to be producing less than ever, and worse things than ever. I wonder if they can even tell.
