When will rank-and-file Democrats learn that the GOP DOESN'T CARE if the mases starve or not receive medical care? Pubs were perfectly happy waiting until they could declare martial law and break the Constitution. At least the people got SOMETHING back. They were never going to get ACA funding.

It's interesting how tastes change. When this came out, I really disliked it - and not for the video, but I really didn't like the kinda weird sound of the sitar. But now I agree, it's a masterpiece and I love listening to it.

Same when I flew from South Bend, IN to ORD to the point I questioned why I didn't just do a $35 car rental, drive the 2 hours myself and save like $200

I was working mid-shift in tech support during Y2k, so I was asleep when it started. I got up and asked my wife if China had gone dark yet or not. When she reported it hadn't, I went back to sleep, secure I wasn't going to be disturbed the rest of my "night" (well, at least for Y2K-related issues)

NOTE: This is a hypothetical, so "no model does that" is not a valid argument. This is not about what might be present now, in reality. It is about the question - is Generative AI inherently unethical by its mere existence, or is it unethical only because it was trained unethically/illegally?
