“Machines need data to create” so do humans
If a human had no senses, they wouldn’t be able to create art.
AI doesn’t “steal” or copy art, it just learns.
TextBooks used to have tons of typos, having ChatGPT prompts aren’t so bad.
Gulf courses use 30 times more water than data centers.
Iran can’t win the 2026 war
Iran lost its supreme leader, most irgc generals, and a trillion dollars worth of infrastructure. Iran also antagonized most middle eastern neighbors preventing any sort of thawing in relations with Saudi Arabia which was something China has tried to facilitate for a decade. Now anyone living in the gulf nations will view Iran as a greater threat than Israel due to all the missiles from Iran killing civilians. Worst case scenario for the United States now is they decide to stop attacking with gaining no concessions from Iran. Iran now has inexperienced leadership and an irrational revenge stance that will inevitably result in further economic disasters like Iraq faced in the 1990s. Iran will never gain back its losses and the United States now can get the Middle East to normalize relations with Israel due to the mutual fear of Iran retaliation.
Tool vs. Service
Having an art being painted for you and painting the art yourself are different things.
I made a previous post criticizing the logic of using a microwave doesn’t make someone a cook. Namely, because it’s arbitrary in determining who put in enough effort to become a regarded cook.
But I want to point out another thing. Someone criticized my previous post that taking an uber is not driving, which is true.
However directing a self driving car is driving, because the human individual making the final decision of the cars directions is the owner of the self driving car rather than anyone else. Just like if I bought a ticket for an airliner, I would never consider myself a pilot. But if I was directing a self driving airplane into which city it would fly towards then I would be the true pilot. It’s just that self driving makes being a pilot easier like the compass or autopilot.
I let ChatGPT explain why we shouldn’t stop ai art.
Incel Libertarian
I’m an incel and people always tell me it isn’t a right to have a girlfriend, but how come it’s a right to have kids or an abortion after choosing to have sex. I have to pay taxes to pay for poor people to have children for their education and healthcare, or to pay for a woman’s abortion. If people were willing to have sex, they should be required to pay for the consequences. I personally have money to pay for these kinds of things but no woman would date me since I was born short with autism. Parents who can’t afford to have kids or abortions after having consensual sex should go bankrupt

Parents do you think saying “because i said so” a bad way to parent?
Parents love to say “because I said so” whenever they need a kid to do something. But shouldn’t the kid just respond “if you told me to jump off a building should I do it?” Just like if a kid says “my friends were doing it” and the parent says “if your friends jumped off a building would you do it? Telling you kids to do things without reason is exactly why kids fall for peer pressure.
“Using a microwave doesn’t make you a cook”
Lots of anti ai artists criticize ai artists that ai does everything for us therefore we shouldn’t consider ourselves artists when using ai. Antis say that it would be exactly like saying using a microwave doesn’t make you a kitchen cook, however the definition of a cook is “to prepare food for eating using heat”. By definition using a microwave is being a cook. The only difference between a person using a microwave and a regular cook is based on the quality of the food. Food prepared in restaurants is better than microwaved food because of the lower quality of microwaved food. However AI produces art that is the same quality as non ai art, or else antis wouldn’t be so worried that ai would take away jobs from artists. Think about it, if your microwaved food was just as good as restaurant food would you still go to a restaurant? You might say yes because restaurants give you an experience that being in your own kitchen doesn’t have. This is what artists who want to keep their jobs should have in mind, artists need to expand their skillsets with skills that ai cannot do, rather than complaining about being replaced by ai all the time.
Flag design I submitted for Albany NY
I took some inspiration from Syracuse NY flag design and the rectangles from the Haudenosaunee flag. With the six pointed star representing the six letters in Albany flag.
Micron jobs
There are fabs hiring in my city, and I want to use my degree in data science and computer science to get a job. I don’t have a lot of semiconductor experience but I minored in computer engineering taking fpga and computer architecture. I want to do vlsi for my master in computer science. What other courses should I look out for if it’s possible to get a job at micron fab.
