I like the use of Em-dashes, because I think half the people who are anti AI will see them and get mad
Kribbles, your document was more skitzo than this
I had such a hard time reading what I did of it lmao
It was also the third gayest thing you ever sent me
sent/said to
Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak It was also the third gayest thing you ever sent me
fuck you I haven't even sent any gay shit to you
I think I also had whiplash when I read this earlier today, because right before it I was reading a take from the spurned college fling of the Anthropic CEO (who herself was an old-school PHD in machine learning and AI), saying that even if he is able to cure her cancer with AI she'll turn him down. And you could hear the reddit applause in her head as she wrote that
I think machine learning is really cool and awesome actually!
I will have to see if my EMT buddy was sent
(not Mini)
10 seconds on Facebook, yes he definitely was lmao

There was a time a few years ago, when if I was told my dollar store purchase was $1.58, I too might have gunned down Vinny
at least the story has a happy ending
Most of the good ones infact

Huge news guys, I read the bill text
1) this applies only to sites that are 33%+ porn
2) Explicitly states the credit card verification (or similar) is sufficient
Replying to legorhin #jazardly requiring a registered credit card is a perfectly fine way of age verification
This would not work for me...
It's not, because grifters
The CC method imo is my actual preferred implementation, because it's broadly effective where it needs to be, but can be circumvented by parents if desired
Sites can also verify the users age in any way they want, other than "(2) Provide that a user confirming that the user is not a minor is not sufficient to verify age."
it also fucks over advertisers, which I think is a win
I like that
the 2nd part to the bill I'm also broadly in-favor of
for non-porn sites, if you don't age-gate your site, you have a bunch of requirements to protect kids
I think as long as they action reports in a timely manner
it's probably in-compliance
if anything, it will lead to youtube being even more ban happy to avoid noncompliance
This is YouTube kids Pika
I don't think they're making 2 different AI checkers
Yes, they 100% already do
Pika, YouTube kids is like 0-7 y/o content
I know. I just think youtube will still ramp up moderation sitewide slightly
In general I like the idea of pushing the lower-tier kids off the big internet, and moving them to dedicated apps that are just4kids
This does (actually) empower parents to control when their kids are able to use the internet
I don't neccecarily disagree, I don't like how they are doing it
not sure what a better option would be
Do you just dislike CC verification?
don't have one
also I shouldn't have to give a website anything to use it
For my credit union. I doubt it
Depends how they implement it Leg, bots have an easier time spinning up debit cards
so more of those verification sytems are CC only now
