Why do people keep reading dystopias as instruction books?

Oh, I’m with you. I don’t think anyone using Google VPN was using it because it protected their privacy on the Internet generally. At least I hope not.

The NASA VPN, on the other hand

Reasonable when the alternative is literally getting mugged on the daily?

Quoting the linked article:

The contract the Guild secured in September set a historic precedent: It is up to the writers whether and how they use generative AI as a tool to assist and complement—not replace—them. Ultimately, if generative AI is used, the contract stipulates that writers get full credit and compensation.

So, yeah. It’s more about ensuring that a human person in the writers’ guild gets credited as a writer, even if they or someone else uses an ai as a tool in the process.

That’s allowed, no?

Unless I’m mistaken, this was more about writers not wanting the studio to be able to say “we had an ai generated a script. We’ll pay you a day to do a brief editing pass.”

There are plenty of examples of companies challenging the legality of regulations and winning, and other cases of apparent corruption among judges.

I mean maybe they decided it was going to be easier to buy a judge than another FCC chair?

It’s the only way to be sure!

Game over, man! Game over!
