And as imagination bodies forth
The forms of things unknown, the poet’s pen
Turns them to shapes and gives to airy nothing
A local habitation and a name.

Since any reductions to copyright, if they occur at all, will take a while to happen, I hope someone comes up with an opt-in limited term copyright. At max, I’d be satisfied with a 45-50 year limited copyright on everything I make, and could see going shorter under plenty of circumstances.

I wish I could get through to people who fear AI copyright infringement on this point.

Interesting. I’ve seen plenty of mentions of the potential use of AI in medicinal imaging, but not in a context where time is of the essence. That’s a particularly compelling use case.

“Still needs to be greenlit by the FDA” - has anyone read a discussion of how the FDA is handing AI medical applications? Considering how overwrought the approval procedure can be for more mundane medical technologies, I have little hope that the process is going to be efficient and effective.

There are circumstances where the precautionary principle is good to apply. But overuse of it has really bad cumulative consequences.

I”m pretty picky about science fiction art. But this is beautiful, and draws you in to the setting.

Yeah, for a ballot with multiple candidates, I would prefer this approach. Ranked Choice Voting is the name that I’ve most often heard it referred to by advocates who want to adopt it in the US.

Seems like the only difference between this and what the OP is describing is whether every candidate has to be ranked, or just as many as you want to.

Not a stupid question at all - the way you do it isn’t intuitive, and I hope gets made easier with further software developments. In the search bar near your username at the upper right enter, communityname@instancename, for ex. newcommunities@lemmy.world, and if it’s working right the version of the community that’s synced to kbin will show up. Catch is that right now it randomly seems to glitch, and fail or return nothing, so if doesn’t work at first you’ll just have to try again later. I’m sure the people running the site are aware of the issue and trying to get it sorted out, for now it’s one of the things to put up with a platform that basically started last month.

Yeah, you’d better have a through way to check if there are any systematic distortions that could have an adverse effect on its operation. I do get the privacy rationale for using synthesized data, though.
