Just switched to them. Would recommend so far.

You can also copyright the original character and make AI generate all the motions of that character. Since the originals was (human) created and copyrighted, it doesn’t matter that AI created art derived from that character isn’t copyrightable in of itself.
Plus there is also trademarks for character likeness.
All in all, I agree with you, this is a non issue for Hollywood studios.
You can train an effective one for a few hundred bucks now.
But that’s as high as the meter……
US embargoed Japanese oil and rubber and the imperial war machine would’ve grounded to a halt without Philippines (US territory) rubber and Dutch Oil.
Not justifying it, but strategically, war with the US was inevitable for imperial Japan.
This was more or less a reflection of my personal experience.
When I was in school, we were taught how to do research. It involves going to Libraries and looking for primary secondary and tertiary sources via the Dewey decimal system. We were taught how to use almanacs and even had an almanac competition on how fast someone can find information.
Public institutions such as the Library system in the United States, were our “temple” of knowledge. Public support for Libraries was historically VERY high.
However, since the popularization of search engines, it has radically reshaped our expectations of finding information. We expect to find it at our fingertip, in less than 200ms, at the cost of quality and gatekeeping institutions that filtered out a lot of junk knowledge.
I was able to find a few articles talking about this: https://firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/fm/article/view/2477/2279
I especially love the quote, “Conflation of information retrieval with knowledge”
Sure, just do what California did via the CCPA and CPRA.
You can opt out of that party selling your data.
It 100% is more tax efficient and effective than going through the judicial system for every single warrant they want to execute. Can’t blame them for that.
I think the logic is more that if AI is inevitable, might as well be the first to make a shitload of money from it.
Or a fart in a blanket :)
Slap some 2D anime girl avatar on it and you got yourself a top grossing v-tuber.
Google search engine destroyed lots of jobs. I would even argue, from a US perspective, it even changed our relationship to institutions of knowledge curation (libraries, news papers, magazines)
Degrowth is a dangerous ideology. For those living in rich countries, degrowth might just mean austerity, for those living in middle and lower income countries, degrowth is going to mean destitution and certain death for x percentage of the population.
