I hope he gets less twitter engagement now. That would be delicious.

People need to hate someone. Especially someone who is known, but not recognized by the majority of the public as evil, like Hitler, because it would be uninteresting. People want to hate those who act under the guise of a good guy, but not obvious hypocrites (like prominent politicians), but those who seem to be really closer to the good side.
The idea is similar to conspiracy theories - a person gets the feeling that he does not allow himself to be deceived and this elevates him above others

No, copywrite doesn't work that way.
Copywrite protects the product of creative works. If you didn't make something, you don't have a copywrite to it. If someone makes a knockoff Pokemon game using Pokemon characters they get sued for using a creative work under copywrite without permissions.
So the person being deepfaked can't sue for copywrite infringement, the only person who could arguably do so would be the photographer who took the video or image used in the deepfake generation. The person getting photographed only owns the copywrite for the image if the copywrite had been explicitly transferred or sold to them by the person who previously owned it (by default the creator of the creative work).
There are other laws that might be applicable for the situation, but they're not copywrite laws.

Does he mean all AI? Or just his competitors?
Though it seems he may have divested.

Yup, welcome to the future. Things move fast. I didn't say it was right, Im just explaining, at this point in time, why it's always been a inherent risk to being a public figure. When it comes to private people, well I guess they have a new wrinkle to iron out
Rule 34 and revenge porn existed long before this.

Yeah, that's real useful isn't it? Why should that be restricted to Teslas?

Why are we letting them brand it as a "technology upgrade" when we know damn well it's a recall.

Kind of a stupid take on all this tbh. There’s nothing stopping this tech from being used against non-public figures as well.

They did…it was that second cable.

Yup being a public figure means you allow the public to use your image in any parody, as long it does not copy the original content exactly. So yeah, don't wanna be publicly fucked, don't be a public figure.

I also found the Mailbird app very useful.
It saves my time because I can open and integrate other user accounts with just a click.

His knowledge is not the problem, he knows about batteries, electric cars, rockets. The problem is his intention when speaking and that of those quoting him. Whether it be to boost his ego, manipulate the market, insult others, I never read a quote from him trying to share an insight.

It's the reason John Deere tractors made before company kill switches were made are appreciating in value rather than depreciating.

>You shouldn't rely on science fiction to be your guide on how AI will evolve in the future.
Why not?
They are ideas...good or bad
Contagion was a brilliant movie... and many parts true/did happen in terms of Covid (real life)
- Self learning, consiousness, complex actions -... which is considered strong AI. 1st why are these things needed for humanity?
Eventually... it will mean "overriding" some of the human decisions
Is this notion better for humanity or not? Or pose as a danger?
And who will make this decision... a group of smart humans... or the so called strong AI they will create?
