caskethopper··on Famous AI Artist Says He's Losing Millions from People Stealing His Work
Will code generated via LLM be handled the same way, or does this only apply to expressive elements in art?
caskethopper··on Jeffrey Epstein documents to be unsealed, potentially revealing acquaintances
I can definitely say in the early days of Echelon development (mid to late 1990's) any attempt to raise awareness would be dismissed. Some of that is surely due to people not understanding the technology at the time.
caskethopper··on Ketamine that's injected during arrests draws new scrutiny
From the article, it sounds like it is on a completely different list altogether.

"Most states and agencies say ketamine may be administered when someone exhibits “excited delirium” or agitation, which is typically associated with chronic drug abuse, mental illness or both."

In that scenario, the police would be beating the culprit into compliance and we would all be looking at videos on youtube shaking our heads. I'm not saying cops should be carrying hypodermics in their utility belt, but how many non-lethal options do you remove before you have to accept more lethal outcomes?
