Artfight platform Ruminations to license reductionism
Previously, Zei has retreated from art fight due to restrictions and, copyright apparently, or repetitive usage within boss fights. He had to remove it due to stresses now.
Oh, silly platforms, middlemen and the rent-seekers. Is this the case? What is this, is this the amount of ways that are made and that it's exposure again.
Exposure builds credibility (be it commercially), right? Or that's how it works through the public. This is the age within the Internet where there's infinity and free, what is there to license any more? Should we license? Paywall? Rhetorically, I answer here.
This was designed for one on one communications or small, viable audiences; the internet like a place like this.
Work means showing up on demand, in others terms and hitting specifications, a hobby is something one does to entertain oneself, like the YouTube poops. The hobby economy will still continue regardless, with new sites cropping up. Along with the shelf space like that.
Yet this is for the satisfaction of paying within one's own work forward, with minimal editing and interaction. That's supposed to be an art trade, some hours a day, drawing and done. Yet I can understand there are other commitments and bigger projects others could do.
Back to the struggle/share duality again, another choice to make. Can't argue with the free hugs guy, I'm a free hugs guy who does not give away licensed hugs.
(Going through the rationales)
It's non-profit and could be part of other education, so I'll give it that. The caterer gets front-page access, yet there's merely more braggability of doing other gift work somewhere else. Still that front-page space with a support to provide for the platform, the proprietary platform that I'm meant to entertain again.

S***s AI Udemy Review, and other clarifications
(I'll never sketch myself as the nostalgia critic again, and it's not even a coherent expression because it's old stuff, yet.)
Time to describe a bad decision. Following from Seth's Claude Dog Post , I've deliberately postponed this review.
Short version: I've tried my best to not make this an entertainment spectacle by making it into a format video with bells and whistles. Course I took is off-the-mark, and I don't recommend, I then think more about Licence quoting a Cryptography guy and calling it. Due to the illiteracy of licensing, I had to rewrite my TOS.
Longer version
I bought a course by Seth. I'm not convinced with my wabi-sabi tendencies.Short version: I've tried my best to not make this an entertainment spectacle by making it into a format video with bells and whistles.

Longer version
I buy it so you don't have to! I'm going through my disagreements and snorting book reviews. Maybe out of parasocial relationship, I've decided to buy his silly course on AI.
Welp, Here are 35 pounds discounted. I could not resist. Most interesting was building a career without AI. Comparing it with the weather and the species like Kevin Kelly. Yet here we go with a another movement I cannot predict.
Then I was recommended of Midjourney and Claude from Seth, and to put it on Youtube, youch. I haven't been into perplexity as it was.
With the ideas here, I'm certain that he's going somewhere here with a workable plan. He had going with something with productivity and value and why others must go and be impresario. A leader and not a follower (ain't that what entrepreneurs do?) Yet, urgh. It's still 85 quid now of this writing.
Axiological arguments of value creation do not apply to a Taylorist Industrialist, by the way, I think he notes that himself, yet that means that with are own urbanism that we are inter-meshed now it's a subject to be explored. That he did within his song of sigificance,
He then goes into tasks and projects, within how that such a thing will be driven my freelancer cobbler automation and that clients concerned about productivity by the industrialist would as Henry Ford, those are thoughts are another time.

He claims lawyers certain professions aren't gone out of in five years real estate broker, truck driver, a pharmacist, a daycare worker is inconceivably not going to be replaced.
So now I cover with better uses of what techno-domnion and techno-affliation with such a mindless thing, he draws on deterministic free will and Daniel Dennet's Intentional stance. Oh, He also makes a claim that people don't go to Hackneyed Movies from Hollywood any more, I get not courting their opinion. Yet, Disney get's traction.
What can happen with this though is Seth's attraction with determinism as a position compared to Dennet's Compatiblism in regard to interpreting free will when it comes to comparing this tech with autonomy.
I ended up writing the review. (It's going to be licence ramblings from now on. Already done it.
"As a wabisabi illustrator, Independent. The implications of using AI have reached wildfire within anti-ai, I hope copyright cases get turned down because being into creative commons licensing, attempting to out-license it ain't going to work. It's nice to see somebody try to cool the flames down.
It's inevitable that in our times, though, I guess illustrators are either going to embrace or walk the opposite direction. Impresarios such as us.
I mean, What will happen with disconnection of this day and age. I do hope that there going to be more essays that don't muddy the waters.
Brings me back to Niel Postman's Technopoly, that's such a thing. What the implications with our own designs such as it will pursue the conflicts here. You're thoughts on Henry Ford are poignant.
Thanks."
Further notes.
Well, thanks, I guess. I don't think AI-philes will get much, AIphobes will get average with the end with Seth's plan for those who plan to not build their business with it average, cannot fully recommend. He does summarise his ideas in his next post, hmm.Got my Certificate, eh, yeah. There's that credentialism that's apparently I have to show now. Ugh, Udemy.
Am I supposed to be proud?

Further notes.
Hmm. Time to revise positions again. Judging from my previous notes.
Considering Steve Klabnick has a similar to mine, with being wary'n technological puritan. Not a Tech opportunist. I'm simply not the industrial bottom line, not Disney, not Nintendo, not King who managed to lay off its employees.
Oh, It's still generative Ai, well that could be a marketing term right now. Now for the last notes.
. Jumping in bed with For-profit companies for content ID is not going to work, a nightmare system as it is. I'd wish they call it copyright infringement, but everything is loaded with RFAA terminology. It is even argued that it ain't the case, the push to make fair use and fair dealings obsolete to apparently control the diffusion models and LLMs. Trying to marketize style will only consolidate power.
Again, licensing tends to encourage monetize/marketerize-or-die kind of logic, which I'm trying to avoid.
. Environment is a loaded gun, none of the essayists or pundits than Alex Avile, fight me on that one. I'd have to limit my micro-blogging after this. Bluesky and Xshwitter aren't going to be deliberately misinformed licensing.
. Education and connections with controlling tech have been noted with Peter Thiel. Along with certain reaction streamers championing it (not all). They should not be taken seriously anyway, anybody who takes thou opportunist ambulance chasers are confirming Neil postman has said about Amusing ourselves to death.
12 minute video, apart from the thing, this is going to move towards a hyperreality. How it is malicious theory to control with aimless categorization and normalisation as the maths cannot be determined by those who preprogram it. I mean Alex Avile has already touched on educational programs who happen to use with the Khan Academy.
This is a question for future generations, and the ones that will come afterwords.
Merely shows how what's at stake here.
Maybe I'm drawing a close parallel to the postmodern villain that Video's Team wrote. Copyright will end with Disney wanting to license our thoughts.
Lets hope for copyright-gate by the sovereign citizen types

I'm agreement back to Flippo
"Unpopular opinion: the pro-copyright anti-information freedom response to generative AI is reactionary, and it’s bad in all the usual ways reactionary things are bad.
The tech is here to stay. The only thing being decided as a matter of IP law is whether open models will be a thing, or if the big rights holders will get to make a lot of money by licensing proprietary models. As before, I prefer a world where information and tech are free and accessible.
Like, I understand "I don't want to be put out of a job" but I really don't get "I want the tool that puts me out of a job to cost $159.99/mo from Adobe who licenses it from Getty, so I can rest easy knowing it was not trained on anything I made". IP law can deliver the latter, not the former.
Right on cue. Perfectly legal licensed training data. For OpenAI, Midjourney, and Google. Not for open source models folks can hack on and run locally. (If the copyright maximalist doctrine prevails.) All the downside, none of the upside. Yay for copyright!"

Licensing Ad Creep? ancaps with there license creep
It's time to revive argument debate garbage-bag ideology
Did I hit my head to ancaps?
That absurd place Seth roasted them now. Economists have dismissed, and still, still they persist, persist like troglodytes under the pretensions to be well-read. They called it a pipe-dream, yet it's still more a bone-dry slave.
Boosting this, Rynd was not a libertarian. It was an odd set of traditions that led into a new set of circumstances. Even anarchists have a historical background and justification, along with Pluralist and other ologies.
As they say, Ayn Ryad not apart from it.
There are notes, notes of why that she observed and amazed by Scientific management and then making all here fictional hero's like robots of efficiency. Then that was with all the selfish 'objectivism' and self-interest making contradictions and pretensions to the temple of self-service, or the justification of that. More reactionary with that silly idea, and somehow the west gave here a platform, something unique with the conditions of that pro-slaveness, that happened.
Now any sensible argument or construction of subject/object is tainted because of that.
As an edutainer, I must leave with this song of their mantra.

Fanart, derivative grey zone. License reductionism Talk.
No, we are below notice. As with the Seuss case.
I did Aggron within a neato butt.
This is why I'm https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ including my blog, including my ideas. Disney and Nintendo are too litigious. With there flexible permissions and the remixes of fan art of prospered.
I'm reminded that our licensing laws, as there fullest are full of controversy and disagreements, here's one I agree with Jimmy. Copyright, an obsolete concept, or something that may be undone by capital.
Oh my, the entire copywriting profession, being completely hackneyed, each is a vote for copyright, or a vote for the legitimising of such a system.
One of the reasons why I self-publish.
I'll continue. What I've learned from licensing that people, like libertarians, have a market fundamentalism view of that only artistic energy can be placed within the desire of making money, oh how easily measures yet naive. Also, that's not art. Not even the conversion rate an executive makes, well, that of the work's exchange value is reductive in of itself.
Work schedules, crunch culture, sigma grind set, Criminalisation/decriminalisation of sex work/anti-work, sexcess, design theories and praxis, those are all the things a craftsman can discuss that don't need licence. Pro-bono and other charity projects are always there that can be done without permission.
Including the ontology of licence. Along with the witherist position. The licensing industry complex, yeash. Sustainability being a trained skill again.
( Oh btw, since capital is going to disintegrate licences due to jingling keys with it's David Foster wallace Infinite Jest that can be played on doomscroll is qualitatively different from establishing a community that prioritize mutualism and equitable, resource redistribution of the co-operatives will always be more beneficial. No from the reactionary populism this big companies have. )
Here's a 15 video by Shiddy kickflips with cussing, I need to document it here in case you missed it.
Next time! Couch Gregor will look within Comfy UI, the stuff coco was made from. 🛋🔎

Diffusion model ethics to Broad brush
I investigate into the lands of the beep boops.
Previously on Couch Gregor's ai editorals. Since I'm dissatisfied with all the editorials, I made my own.
Looking at the coco workflow, there's the usage of noding and shaders here like it's used within blender, with 3d models.
Huh, according to the questionable lawsuits there n has been ethical questions in regard to this, I've had to check what this will do for independents.
Looks like it will have to relax and into noding, with minimal text-to-prompt speech, I'm afraid such a matter will move towards no copyright infringement. The environmental concerns along with the labour is another matter.
I can still see some inconsistency here and there, i think it will.
The only answer to this will be to do another art piece.
The only answer to this will be to do another art piece.
Since copyright licensing laws aren't going to stop this ( Disney has been developing its out diffusion models for to replace to concept artists.. ) Such a matter that copyright infringement it out of existence, it's going move into ethical questions with regard to its use and not contingent on commercial publishing and industry.
( Oh hint, my untested estimate is that I agree with 80% percent of the book, it's good at dealing with the transhumanist thought that's been erupting more within Silicon Valley and the saviour complex.)
With the rise of deepfakes will continue to occur, along with the
The age of scepticism is going to get more muddy. Herschel Gordon Lewis had a point with direct response rates
Disinformation campaign first, funding latter.
Going to have to boost this as such tech evolves, Fox Key did make a post that this will continue since films are the most labour-intensive and expensive forms that we take for granted. Including videogames, and such a licensing that will only move it underground, along with managing.Licensing politics! Yeesh. Have they slapped me with a copyright infringement from drawing an Aggron as a pin-up, perish the thought. I'm merely a content producer to them anyhow.
This book is on my audiobook list in terms of essays. So many coming out these days. Got the audiobook.( Oh hint, my untested estimate is that I agree with 80% percent of the book, it's good at dealing with the transhumanist thought that's been erupting more within Silicon Valley and the saviour complex.)

I'm not sure if we can out-license of with this will combine to some odd concoctions, I don't like this I.P loving people, (Even though I can imagine a system of resource redistribution not contingent on it, merely like how qualitative differences between a restaurant and a soup kitchen works. Does that make me a anarchist? Oh, well. )
It's not that the lowest common denominator word of content means the worst and the best. Bill Gates definition versus Martha McLuhan definition.
Welp, I'll have to keep track as these things unfold, and soul-searching will occur. This broad brush will see more erm, cases, so to speak. Both Industrialists and the silicon will be watched.
(Also it's copyright infringement, not theft, RFAA implanted that. )

Hiding the gun
Development of a new character, an idea, she needs more development. 15 min pen sketch. |
Kieron's trainer, has rejected a deal regarding fitness deal that she shouldn't have. She knows too much. She knows they argue in violence if they want to, the only best way to deal with such a mindset is not absolute pacifism, but a safety measure.
A sig bauer p224, hidden away by a cheesy art deco drawer. Silencer included, she's going to have to hide it better, but this place will work.
That pastime training at a training range, including of having a gun license, will have to pay off. These duds are enough to knock out somebody, and she could get away out of the window.
Wondering if she's done a smart move, she closes the drawer.
