It’s reasonable to suspect that something like this might be important and denying him the truth is denying him agency to choose.
It may be the case that you would rather not know. How can you guarantee the same about another man you’ve never met?
I think they were hoping to lean into the uncanny valley of AI art to cause a sense of imbalance/discomfort to fit the whole secret invasion theme. And of course save a boatload of money along the way.
I’m not necessarily against it as a concept 'cause I think art will survive AI as it survived digital painting, photography, and loads of other revolutions before. But it really is kind of a slap in the face to the artists that got Marvel where it is today.
Except if he finds out later that she was hiding this from him deliberately that could be excruciatingly hurtful. Whereas telling him now, I think, is more likely to play out as a “I just found out but you’re still my dad regardless of genetics” thing.
They created Chromium, which means it isn’t EEE - it just means they created a successful product.
So I guess you’re saying this is Powell’s fault, huh. 🤔
I think it’s worth pointing out that legality depends on jurisdiction and while it’s obviously a requirement to obey the your (and other admins’) local laws, it’s not quite so clear-cut when it comes to other countries.
Eg. It’s illegal to criticize Hong Kong’s government under their National Security Law. But I think we’d (the community here, not just you and me) agree that lemmy.world has absolutely no obligation to follow that law.
I think it’s more likely to be history homework for a North American school completed by an immigrant from HK/Taiwan.
Weirdly I think Apple is in a position where they don’t need a wide install base to drum up developer interest. Everyone knows it’s a land grab and first movers’ advantage is huge in a new ecosystem and I think we all know that a lower price Apple headset would sell like hotcakes. So devs can (and likely are) invest early as if the install base already exists.
I think it’d be good to put a few guidelines in place to shape the discussion away from the lowest common denominator. Even the very basics of asking posters to describe why they liked the photograph enough to post it is a nice, gentle nudge in the direction you’re describing.
