Disney isn't "paying someone," they're expecting to make money. They're investing.
The $1B turns into OpenAI stock. If Disney characters make OpenAI more valuable, that stock and its future dividends become more valuable.

Myself during the pandemic I was really turned off by the idea they were going to keep doing concessions the way they usually did because the idea of a popcorn and coke mess would turn my stomach.
Since then I've seen Barbie and Superman and it was cool but I'm not in a rush to see more movies in a theater. We were worried that the chain theater in town was going to go out of business because it had been leveraged by an Israeli company just before the crisis. The art house theater downtown is starting to show those tentpole movies but the art house movies in the trailers seem all the same to me and don't catch my eye. If they wanted to get me in they should have shown Ne Zha 2. The big chain theater is actually getting interesting because they show all kinds of unusual thing such as live opera performances, anime movies, etc.
Just can't see it beating streaming though, also I think somehow television has outpaced movies in terms of the scope of stories it can tell. I find it so boring that they keep making three-packs of superhero movies and then reboot and tell the origin story over and over again, one thing I liked about the latest Superman was that they didn't retell his journey from Krypton and his upbringing in farm country but just jumped into it -- I mean, Superman has been around 87 years we know his origin story.
In a TV show they couldn't get away with rehashing the origin story and the first few books over and over again -- I could care less if Spiderman was bit by a radioactive spider or a GMO spider, I just want to seem him slinging webs and punching bad guys and mostly being loved by the community and occasionally feared.
Almost every one of them was elected again, often by wider margins (the only exception losing to another one of them) after deatroying any illusion innthat direction you might argue was produced by their campaign positions, so I don't think you can absolved the American electorate here, even if one agrees that their campaign before taking office met your description.
"there were certain historical characters removed from Sora 2 because people kept making racist videos that are hard to censor, and it became increasingly unhinged"
Also Google "Elsagate" to see what sorts of things people would like to do with Disney characters. Or a YouTube search for Elsagate.
The other thing I'd point out is that people kind of seem to forget this, but it isn't a requirement that AI video be generated, then shoveled straight out without modification. Elsagate shows the level of effort that people are willing to put into this (a strange combination of laziness, but extreme effort poured into enabling that laziness). You can use the blessed Disney video generator to generate something, then feed it into another less controlled AI system to modify it into something Disney wouldn't want. Or a video of a Disney character doing something innocent can be easily turned into something else; it's not hard to ask the AI systems to put something "against a green screen", or with a bit more sophistication, something that can be motion tracked with some success and extracted.
"A front camera shot of Cinderella crouching down, repeatedly putting a cucumber in and out of her mouth. She is against a green screen." - where ever that video is going, Disney isn't going to like it. And that's just a particularly obvious example, not the totality of all the possibilities.
Just putting controls on the AI video output itself isn't going to be enough for Disney.
The author contributes to ISO C and ISO C++ working groups, and his latest contribution was #embed.
Given the creativity of the jailbreaking community I will be very impressed if OpenAI manage to reliably prevent Sora from creating disagreeable content with Disney characters.
Hard disagree. Not having access to true device pixels is a feature, not a bug -- especially when you consider that common screens today range from 90 dpi to 600 dpi. And then not to mention browser zoom on top of that.
Trying to optimize to some kind of perfect pixel alignment shouldn't be a goal anymore. We use antialiasing instead to ensure that widths and weights maintain proportionality no matter what resolution and zoom level you use. Trying to snap to pixels is an anti-feature with modern screens. It made sense when everyone used low-resolution screens and antialiasing wasn't commonly used in OS's and programs. But it hasn't made sense for well over a decade now.

> You should be able to compile a relatively small, trimmed, standalone, AOT compiled library
Yes-ish. We do AOT at work on a fairly large app and keep tripping over corners. Admittedly we don't use COM. I believe if you know the objects you are using upfront then code generation will take care of this for you. The other options are:
- self-contained: this just means "compiler puts a copy of the runtime alongside your executable". Works fine, at the cost of tens of megabytes
- self-contained single file: the above, but the runtime is zipped into the executable. May unpack into a temporary directory behind the scenes. Slightly easier to handle, minor startup time cost.
The lesson from Mamdani is that the only way forwards for actual policy based and anticorruption politics is within the Democrat primaries. These are even run by the state in many states, I believe.
Eradicate the Republican party as an organization, split the Democrats into "normal right" and "maybe a bit left" factions, and see if you can get preference voting in there as well while asking for a pony.

> Historically the only time the trend of wealth accumulation reverses is during massive crises, wars, and civilizational collapse which make life worse for everyone and nobody with any sense would wish for.
Yes. Which is why the question of social responsibility of the rich matters far more, because they can't help getting involved in politics. And a lot of them seem surprisingly pro-collapse, or at least pro-authoritarian. It's a common pattern in South American countries where demands for rights and equality scare the property owning class, because they might have to share a bit with the general population; this results in coups, dictators, suppression of protests etc, which results in an equally violent retaliation. You don't get Castro without Batista.
Since the general agreement that money = speech = votes, the habit of rich people buying news media to be their personal propaganda (e.g. Bezos with WaPo, the Berlusconi media empire, Murdoch etc), has also made the world a lot worse.
AI accelerates the problem, since part of the pitch is "we're going to obliterate a large amount of white collar and lower middle class work entirely, while also removing the state safety net". Not clear whether that will actually happen as promised to the shareholders, but it could be hugely disruptive.
Then there's people's more local, lived experiences with landlordism and the minor rich. A particular local example I heard recently: https://www.sheffieldtribune.co.uk/a-london-lawyer-bought-hu...
> We are heading to a centralised command economy. Marxists want more of that
Marxists want the working class whose labor is applied to capital in production to direct capital, and thereby production, rather than capital being privately owned and its owners directing labor, and thereby production. While the democratic centralism favored in Leninist theory and its derivatives is (at least in the theory in which it is conceived) a means of achieving that, current Western Marxists are, IME, all over the map with regard to centralism. They are more united about who should wield power over the economy than about the structure of how that power should be wielded.

For the last decade or so I get a second $0.85 monthly bill from google. Nobody at google knows why, but they recommend to leave it because who knows what could be disabled if I block those payments. Interesting detail here is that this is on a bank account that we stopped using in 2017, so the only reason we are keeping that account alive is for these stupid google payments. In the cloud environment there is an invoice for the amounts, but no way to change the billing info to our current account and also no way (not by us, not by google support) to figure out what these payments are actually for...

> Determining whether there is an actual labor shortage is pretty difficult.
The only hard part is nailing down what people mean by “labor shortage”; resolving whether one exists under either the normal economic definition or the one people are actually using is pretty easy, but since the whole point of using the term is to mask that the actual complaint is about wages being too high, its really difficult to get people to admit what they are talking about.
All the consulting practice arguments aside, this is fundamentally a gatekeeping argument about clients staying in their lane. I'm sure doctors feel the same way about patients with weirdly specific questions about HFpEF diagnoses. Doctors have always hated "Doctor Google", and now they have to contend with "Doctor GPT". It's up to you how much sympathy to have for them.
They probably do that in parallel, the point of the visitor disclosure isn't to reveal the social media history, it is so even if the social media history itself, which they have through technical means, doesn't reveal any basis for exclusion, the failure to disclose parts of it (which comparing the disclosure to the records they already have identifies) can do so, as well as pointing authorities to what the visitor thinks needs hidden and should be investigated further.
> This is quite literally "printing money", right?
No, its not literally printing money. (That’a what happens in the big presses run by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing.)
It is arguably figuratively printing money, but that’s exactly one of the Fed’s primary tools to acheive its job, by design.
> Wasn't the Fed not supposed to be allowed to do that?
What gave you that idea?
If you are part of the American electorate (including a voter who is eligible but choosing to abstain out of protest or indifference) you are part of a political organization that chooses military action.
“record and record”, if you mean the verb for persisting something and the noun for the thing persisted, are heteronyms (homographs which are not homophones), which incidentally is also what you would probably want to test what you are talking about here (distinguishing homophones would test use of context to understand meaning, but wouldn’t test anything about whether or not logic was working directly on audio or only working on text processed from audio, failing to distinguish heteronyms is suggestive of processing occurring on text, not audio directly.)
> The official reason given for seizing the M/V Skipper was sanctions violation, not a blockade.
“Sanctions” imposed by one country on another limiting its trade with third countries are (if force is used to effect them) a (limited) blockade and absolutely an act of war.
Many (all?) states have an immunization registry ("Immunization Information System"); when you’re vaccinated, the provider submits a digital record with your name and date of birth, along with their info and the vaccine info, to the registry. This is programmatically ingested by Epic’s EMR system, if configured, and will even show up in your mobile app and web interface when logged into your health system’s app. So, in some cases, yes.
With that said, for emergencies, one might have an emergency bracelet with this info on it in the event pain management is required unexpectedly. Otherwise, pain might not be managed.
I recall this from one of Donald Westlake's books:
"He stopped on a dime and collected 5 cents change."
Just start from the premise that Israel targeted exclusively handheld military comms devices that would in ordinary practice only be in the custody of Hezbollah combatants, and from the additional premise that the explosions in the strikes were relatively small, so small that the overwhelming majority of the Hezbollah casualties were wounded and not KIA. Then try to make another story make sense.
We have significant evidence for both these premises!
This is not an argument that the strike incurred no civilian casualty, that no child of a Hezbollah combatant was in close proximity when one of the bombs went off, anything like that. It's rather a sanity check on arguments based on statistical claims about the casualties. There might have been quite a lot of civilian casualties! But for there to have been significantly more of them than combatant casualties, I would argue that you have to break one of my two premises.
Crenshaw's tutorial doesn't quite reach the point where it becomes useful, but precedence-climbing is a rather straightforward refactoring of recursive descent that becomes extremely useful when there are many precedence levels.

> These are government regulations regarding kids.
No, they aren't just that, because they are government regulations requiring everyone wanting access to something that cannot be marketed to children under the rules to prove that they are not a child, which is not inherently essential to a regulation of what can be marketed to children.
There is a difference between regulating what can be marketed to children and mandating that vendors secure proof that every user is not a child.
(Just as there is a difference between prohibiting knowingly supplying terrorists and requiring every seller to conduct a detailed background check of every customer to assure that they are not a terrorist.)

Funny but my impression is that these days kerning is usually pretty bad with Serifed fonts in, at the very least, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Publisher, Microsoft Powerpoint, Adobe Photoshop, and Adobe Illustrator.
It is not so bad if you are using it for paragraphs but I can't stand the way serifed fonts come out if I am setting display text for a poster unless I manually take over and adjust the kerning. After I had this problem I was wondering if I was the only one or what other people did so I looked at posters people had put up around campus and had a really hard time finding posters where people were using serifed fonts in large sizes and my guess is people either start out with sans or they tried something with serifs but changed their mind because it looked wrong.

China doesn't want to get involved in an oil war. It doesn't want to send its limited blue-water capabilities into America's backyard to get painted. It doesn't want to deal with oil supply chains against America's nuclear-powered fleet. And it doesn't want to risk Trump popping an aneurysm and disabling their ships, an attack to which all retaliation options carry material risks of nuclear escalation (in a way bombing boats on the other side of the world does not), and which would mean trashing China's and the global economy as the trade war turns blockade.

> We just need it to be hard enough that most kids won't do it.
Silly though that sounds, it might work. Because it's social pressure from other kids to be online that drives many kids into being constantly on Instagram and Snapchat. If you're not online, you don't know what's going on. The big social networks monetize FOMO.
If a sizable fraction of kids aren't on social media, that's not where it's happening any more. The pressure goes away. Or goes elsewhere.
Was funny, I was using Copilot to analyze a certain light novel to reverse engineer the storytelling techniques so I could write a fanfiction the other day and I asked it if it could apply a certain method to any other stories and it said, yeah, The Catcher in the Rye, The Bell Jar, The Great Gatbsy and Neon Genesis Evangelion

> where cities get all the benefit at the expense of the larger region
A pair of thought experiments. The tri-state area is depopulated and turned into a nature reserve. Everywhere except for New York City. How does it do?
Now, New York City is leveled and turned into a nature preserve. How does this affect those states’ non-urban populations? (Hint: economic collapse. Budget cuts. Unemployment.)
Cities suck resources from outside. But by and large, they also distribute largesse to their proximities and subsidize life for everyone around them.
> led to a recent recall of the local council member. Why does the majority vote of a city of 800k people get to unilaterally dictate the transportation options for a region upwards of 7MM?
New York City has a population of 8.5mm [1]. That’s almost half of the metropolitan area’s population [2]. Include New York State and the non-voting population effect is a minority. Congestion charging isn’t a tyranny of the minority.

I thought this was common knowledge. DeepSeek’s Wikipedia entry says that they trained all their models on Nvidia chips procured before the U.S. embargo to China on them. It wouldn’t surprise me if they continued acquiring them through, well, less than legal means.
I also read somewhere (not Wikipedia) that they trained on ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini queries, basically feeding in the output of competitor’s LLMs as training data. Kinda surprised they didn’t run into model collapse problems, but they stole their training data from other people who stole their training data from data collections that arguably stole them from content creators. It’s bandits all the way down, so adding a little smuggling to that doesn’t surprise me.
Can confirm, I'm tangentially adjacent to that community at times. I almost went to grad school for it even!
In the end, almost everything has a soap opera in it somewhere. People have a hard time processing stories that don't have a soap opera in them somewhere. For some people it's just impossible. There's really only a minority of people who are interested in stories that have no personal relationship stories in them at all.
That's not to say that the parts that aren't soap opera aren't meaningfully different. I disagree with the reductionistic claim that "everything is just a soap opera in the end", and leave it to the reader to determine whether or not the original link is making that mistake.
I would say it's more like salt in cooking for the vast majority of people; they expect a certain proper amount and trying to engage a normal human's taste without it is an uphill battle at best. As a result, across a wide variety of genres and styles, you'll find soap operas.
(I use soap opera as a bit of shorthand for things focusing on human relationships a lot. Soap operas tend to focus on the romantic end more than average, so the embedding is not quite perfect. But I use "soap opera" as the shorthand here because they are one of the more pure embodiments of the idea, because they are basically nothing but human relationships churning and spinning, with generally not much more going on. Yeah, a couple of them have a more exotic framing device, but all that does is move them slightly off the center of the genre, not really change them much.)
What gets me is getting almost 100% scam ads on YouTube and not having a clear way to push back. Even when I see an ad for a product that might benefit me, seeing all those scam ads makes me think… it is a scam again.

They could still get HDR working right end-to-end. I was reading about HDR in the early 2000s and really excited about it but when I looked into the specific tone mapping systems that are used today my impression is: "Great, they're going to screw up both the SDR and the extra HDR data" and it seems that's exactly what happened. Similarly, the net effect of wide gamut on color accuracy in the wild is not necessarily an improvement.
The Chevy Suburban has been one of the largest vehicles on the market since 1934. [1]
If you wanted an EV to match the Suburban it would probably be that Cadillac Escalade IQ in terms of size, comfort, and towing capacity -- that's got a curb weight of 9,100 pounds which is 1.5x heavier than the Suburban.

I'll argue the opposite.
(1) The demand for mental health services is an order of magnitude vs the supply, but the demand we see is a fraction of the demand that exists because a lot of people, especially men, aren't believers in the "therapeutic culture"
In the days of Freud you could get a few hours of intensive therapy a week but today you're lucky to get an hour a week. An AI therapist can be with you constantly.
(2) I believe psychodiagnosis based on text analysis could greatly outperform mainstream methods. Give an AI someone's social media feed and I think depression, mania, schizo-* spectrum, disordered narcissism and many other states and traits will be immediately visible.
(3) Despite the CBT revolution and various attempts to intensify CBT, a large part of the effectiveness of therapy comes from the patient feeling mirrored by the therapist [1] and the LLM can accomplish this, in fact, this could be accomplished by the old ELIZA program.
(4) The self of the therapist can be both an obstacle and an instrument to progress. See [2] On one level the reactions that a therapist feels are useful, but they also get in the way of the therapist providing perfect mirroring [3] and letting optimal frustration unfold in the patient instead of providing "corrective emoptional experiences." I'm going to argue that the AI therapist can be trained to "perceive" the things a human therapist perceives but that it does not have its own reactions that will make the patient feel judged and get in the way of that unfolding.

Right, this result seems meaningless without a human clinician control.
I'd very much like to see clinicians randomly selected from BetterHelp and paid to interact the same way with the LLM patient and judged by the LLM, as the current methodology uses. And see what score they get.
Ideally this should be done blind, I don't know if BetterHelp allows for therapy through a text chat interface? Where the therapist has no idea it's for a study and so isn't trying to "do better" then they would for any average client.
