US Record Labels Sue AI Music Generators Suno and Udio for Copyright Infringement ( www.wired.com )

The music industry has officially declared war on Suno and Udio, two of the most prominent AI music generators. A group of music labels including Universal Music Group, Warner Music Group, and Sony Music Group has filed lawsuits in US federal court on Monday morning alleging copyright infringement on a “massive scale.”...

I mean yes to the sentiment but it would be quite a bit different if these artists signed a distribution contract with the AI company saying they got a miniscule percentage of royalties for every track somebody generated or even licensed this music to train on whatsoever.

Jsyk in this specific context it's hanged. Weird right?

Like:

Hanged from the neck until death

Not in that country they ain't. At least not about most things.

That's not what the term martyr means when we're referring to Islam tho. They're usually referring to Jihad which is much more specific. (And problematic)

Also, imagine thinking an American dictionary and en English word mean anything when the only 'true' reading of this religion is Arabic

GiveMemes ,

I can prove objectively that religion is bad for humanity. Can you do the same about atheism? There's a huge difference between the two. We respect people, not their beliefs. If someone's a racist, that's a belief with just as much evidence (aka none/blind faith) as a religion. Do I have to respect their religions? I do think it's really sad that these people died, though I view it as an easily preventable occurrence, and mostly the fault of those that partook. (The same way that I viewed the submarine)

Those are the hadiths which is kinda like a state law vs a national law where the national law overpowers the state law (except in specific circumstances) or how the us constitution overrides national law. The quran is the only book that's the word of God, and if you take all the hadiths as truth you open Islam up to all kinds of other critiques. Besides that, the shia/sunni split has a ton of hadith issues where they only treat some as truth and not others. For the record it's not just Muslims or something. All of the Abrahamic religions are immensely fucked and I'm pretty sure I could make a similar case for most others. Even fucking Buddhism is being used to justify an ethnic cleansing rn.

You have definitely made me reflect on what I said and I shouldn't have made such a claim when I don't really know what I'm talking about entirely.

The corvette is the best track car for the price by far, same with certain camaros. And I'm not talking about Nascar tracks, I mean nordschleife times.

GiveMemes ,

Some do. Some, like Shaq or Ryan Reynolds (or Kanye) use their money to invest in other companies. Ryan Reynolds coming out and saying Nazi shit would probably be bad for Mint, just like Ye's controversy was bad for Yeezy, just like Elon's controversy is bad for Tesla.

GiveMemes ,

You provided exactly zero reasoning for most of your statements and have now taken a condescending position. People like you are why we can't have nice things in the world.

GiveMemes ,

I prefer basing my opinions on logic, arguments, and facts over feelings. Your inability to articulate a response to certain arguments shows why this is still a debate. Further, you're relying on the idea that something is crazy to you, therefore it should be to everybody, but that's not how it works. There's racist people that use this exact type of reasoning to support their racism.

E.G.

"Black people are less than white people"

logical counterpoint
logical counterpoint

"WTF do you need a reasoning that black people are less than white people"

If your position is really stronger, then it shouldn't be hard for you to make arguments in favor of it.

I was able to pirate photoshop for somebody just last year but it's definitely a bit more in depth than just clicking a magnet link iirc. Doable on windows fs, unsure abt Linux and mac.

GiveMemes ,

You clearly know zero abt copyright law if you think law enforcement is legitimately getting involved. 9.99999999 times out 10 it's a letter from a lawyer.

That's true in pretty much every developed country over the past 2-3 decades lmao. The US still has branded packaging but the social attitude towards cigarettes has also completely flipped from being something everybody (including children) did to being seen as gross. I don't see how this arbitrary law is shown to have any effect whatsoever.

Vimms Lair is getting removal notices from Nintendo etc. We need someone to help make a rom pack archive can you help? ( slrpnk.net )

Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be...

Where are IP laws mentioned in the constitution?

That's a huge risk for robbery and basically just asking for trouble. Shit tier idea to make that public knowledge tbh. Criminal doesn't have a gun? Good thing they can just find someone that does. Already have one? Then they rob someone with 30 and put the guns onto the black market (still registered to the previous owner.)

GiveMemes ,

I forgot the answer to argument is a snarky remark.

GiveMemes ,

That's a chicken and egg situation tho. Is the bias a result of a mind? Or is it the result of being trained on data with common human biases all put together by humans? Are these traits actually measurable or are we just anthropomorphizing a machine like we do everything else?

GiveMemes ,

What about RFK? He's crazy but also probably the first 'good person' to run for office since Obama, and unlike Obama might actually follow through on his antiwar promises.

GiveMemes ,

He's currently taking voters from both sides of the line. More from Trump. You're imposing a false dichotomy and making shit up with little to no logical backing, which if you had half a brain left, you wouldn't do...

Environmental lawyer that spent his life taking big companies to court on behalf of smaller people isn't a good guy because of his privilege? You're literally braindead

This is just a random person's decision about whether or not the source is reliable/biased with provenly poor/unevenly applied methodology.

Is the IDF seriously claiming that Shani Louk died at the music festival? Post-truth era we live in. There's video footage of her alive from October 7th is there not? Clearly another victim of Israel's bombing campaign.

Are you referring to the Stanford prison experiment? That's been thoroughly disproven.

Can't have inflation when nobody can afford food.

Unless you consider alternatives such as e-bikes and public transport which we should be. We're not gonna make a dent in climate change without some form of sacrifice.

After announcing increased prices, Spotify to Pay Songwriters About $150 Million Less Next Year ( www.billboard.com )

When Bloomberg reported that Spotify would be upping the cost of its premium subscription from $9.99 to $10.99, and including 15 hours of audiobooks per month in the U.S., the change sounded like a win for songwriters and publishers. Higher subscription prices typically equate to a bump in U.S. mechanical royalties — but not...

To add to this, buy their merch and physical copies of their albums. Also, go to shows! Lots of small bands would love a bigger crowd and can be seen for cheap or free.

GiveMemes ,

Uhh you might want to provide a link for that bc their 2017 policy document says very, very differently.

If Kendrick was using this to pump his record sales up he'd probably be releasing a record to boost. He's just schooling a clown that danced on Pac's grave and as you say, it's already public knowledge. Not every fucking diss track has to be Story of Adidon level lmao.

GiveMemes ,

It has nothing to do with him being biracial and everything to do with him being a culture vulture pos that was a Hollywood actor as a teenager and claims he rose from the bottom. It's about his code switching and pandering to his majority white boy audience. It's about the way he 'only comes to Atlanta for a check'. It's about the way he disrespected two of the artform's greats with his AI bullshit. It's not about him being half-white at all and everything to do with him not being a 'colleague' but a 'colonizer'.

GiveMemes ,

Even more surprising is that it's a reference to a show that makes fun of racism and racist people all the time. 'Bear down for finals'

‘Huge win’: Brown University protesters reach an agreement to dismantle encampment ( forward.com )

This article describes the little-reported on success that Brown University had in disbanding student protest... by conceding to let activists present a case for divestment at an upcoming hearing before the university's investment board....

GiveMemes ,

Fordham also said they would allow the students to make their case to the CFO and the Board of Trustees, and the students(correctly) refused to take it as the school still hasn't even called for a cease-fire. How can a plan to divest from Israel be taken seriously when they won't even call for an end to Israel's genocide?

Russian people tend to disagree with you on this one. At least those I've met and read the work of.

A friend put it to me that 'the death of navalny was so hard because he was the entire face of resistance. Now there isn't anybody for the people to gather behind.' (not verbatim at all).

I agree that .world can be averse to truth, but I think you (and your instance) probably can be too
