Ask six people to identify the ‘soul’ in a piece of art and you’ll get seven different answers. It’s an entirely subjective concept.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as the saying goes. Maybe we should stop gatekeeping what art people enjoy and stop brigading them when they dare to like something ‘real artists’ decide they shouldn’t.
Sure, makes sense. How any car made post 2020 can justify not having wireless Android Auto or Carplay is beyond me.
I bought an old 1950s/1960s Armin Trosser hand grinder from ebay a while ago and use it every day. Works great and looks lovely in my opinion
Interesting. Terrible how? Slow?

Is that not missing an ‘I’? As in

Some things to consider with regards to software like this. If music can be heard, it can be scraped, period. Even if you put up barriers on major streaming platforms or embed “anti-AI” tags, all it takes is:
Someone recording the audio with a mic (analog loophole)
A downloader that bypasses the protection (e.g., YouTube-dl)
A source that doesn’t respect the protections (pirate sites, leaks, live audience recordings)
If a human can access it, an AI can be trained on it, even secondhand, and unlike traditional use cases where clean, labeled data is critical, AI models can learn from messy or partial data. Even if you degrade the quality or watermark it, a model can still extract style, rhythm, melody and timbre, just like how humans can recognize a song through static.
Also, you can’t control every upload, every sample, every remix, every bootleg. As soon as someone puts your protected content in a place without safeguards, it’s back in the ‘training pool’.
Even if AI models never directly train on your content, they can still learn your style by training on other artists influenced by you, or on users uploading “in the style of” recreations. Protection doesn’t stop style emulation which is what many people want from AI anyway.
Finally just because AI avoids your data doesn’t mean it avoids imitating you. You may block scrapers, but unless copyright law adapts to handle stylistic theft, there’s no real recourse when AI replicates your sound or vibe.
Yep, seems that way.
Ya fuckin’ think there, champ? You reckon? Maybe? Maybe a but naive was it? You think?

Outdoor posters, audio advertising on podcasts and streaming services such as Spotify, and partnerships with social media influencers are not covered by the regulations.
That seems quite the loophole, tbh…

Yeah. Have you seen the new INSTER? It shares some of the same design language as the IONIQ.
Can they not install a under-road toad tunnel to allow them to cross safely? Seems a more efficient way of doing things.
Agreed. The first gen IONIQ 5 is a amazing looking car, although I’m less keen on the new 2025 revision.
The front is OK, but there’s something very off with the rear. It seems too curved, like it’s being pinched somehow? There’s a decent looking car in there somewhere, but it’s buried under too many curves and slopes imo.
Sorry, you know the rules: pics or it didn’t happen.

You could say it was one of the websites of all time.
