To be honest, this isn't an AI problem, but a content moderation and labor force ethics problem. You can swap out AI with social media and you'll find the same amount of psychological harm to moderators.

It's going ok!

My sons daycare had to close for the week because of a COVID outbreak so I've been daddy-day care all week. It's nice to spend quality time with him, but man 2-year-olds are a lot.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but here in California you don’t have to report if someone died in your house after a certain period of time. The only exception, I’m told by my realtor, is if the deceased were a minor.

As long as it doesn’t affect my ability to resell, doesn’t bother me at all.

Good question! It's probably the most psychologically damaging job out there.

Ironically, maybe with AI? But that would mean we would have to train a model to recognize the worst images and videos possible...which means gathering all of that data...which means whomever trains that model will be scarred...actually, maybe not a good idea...

Copyright protection should only apply to people and if they are alive.

We're stifling artistic innovation when copyright is controlled by corporations.

Thank you! Bookmarking right now.

Mlem is no longer on testflight, they just announced a change in leadership, so hopefully it continues with development. Seems like it will, given their announcement: https://beehaw.org/post/693759

OH YEAH, they did a great job!

I don’t understand, as in it slows down?

How could I forget?!

I watched the 2011 The Thing last night which sparked the conversation today!

It takes time. I’m ten years into my career as a cinematographer and I still feel like I haven’t achieved “it” yet.

It's a tough problem to solve! It's definitely beyond my expertise.

I mean, it wasn't bad but also...not that great? Agh, I hate dishing on movies. They're so hard to make!

It was his last update before changing leadership. IDK what the status will be after that.

Just tried Limbo, though, and loving it!

I’m sooooo disappointed, but also sooooo not surprised.

Legally, Biden did have weak legal ground, but also legally then the decision shouldn’t have been allowed because the states who sued had, with unanimous decision by the Supreme Court, no legal ground at all.

NPR reports that the Biden admin will have a response and plan announced soon.

Thank you for clarifying!

I think all deaths, but I’m not sure. I’m not a realtor! :)

Thank you for clarifying!

It is?! I loved that one too

So weird! And why AIDS? Seems a little bit alarmist.
