Just get a cheap usb c -> 3.5mm adapter. Problem solved.
China are the worlds biggest coal producer and consumer, started building like 100GW of coal power plants last year alone, and are increasing their use of coal every single year.
People getting excited about china's massive solar power generation are hilarious. Basically unless china stop using coal, the rest of the world being completely net-zero is irrelevant.
Coal is unreliable and dirty.
China use absurd amounts of coal and they're not slowing down. They're the worlds largest producer and consumer of coal. They're increasing use of all power generation types - coal, solar, nuclear.
Are you taking that as me saying that they "learn in the same way" as in......by using their eyes to see it and ears to listen to it? You seem to be reading waaaaay too much into a simple sentence. AI "learns" by consuming the content. People learn by consuming the content.
It applies based on similarity whether you mention the original author or not.
That's if you're recreating something. Writing fan-fiction isn't a violation of copyright.
Not at all true. AI doesn’t just reproduce content it was trained on on demand.
Your very first statement calling my basis for my argument incorrect is incorrect lol.
LLMs “learn” things from the content they consume. They don’t just take the content in wholesale and keep it there to regurgitate on command.
On your last part, unless someone uses AI to recreate the tone etc of a best selling author and then markets their book/writing as being from said best selling author, and doesn’t use trademarked characters etc, there’s no issue. You can’t copyright a style of writing.
You can “use” them to learn from, just like “AI” can.
What exactly do you think AI does when it “learns” from a book, for example? Do you think it will just spit out the entire book if you ask it to?
Makes sense. AI can “learn” from and “read” a book in the same way a person can and does, as long as it is acquired legally. AI doesn’t reproduce a work that it “learns” from, so why would it be illegal?
Some people just see “AI” and want everything about it outlawed basically. If you put some information out into the public, you don’t get to decide who does and doesn’t consume and learn from it. If a machine can replicate your writing style because it could identify certain patterns, words, sentence structure, etc then as long as it’s not pretending to create things attributed to you, there’s no issue.
Six of Trump’s cabinet secretaries authored or contributed to Project 2025.
That doesn't mean that Project 2025 is being followed. It's not. It's not Trumps plan.
Your claim wasn't that those 6 people contributed to Project 2025, it's that Project 2025 was this governments plan.
That's basically subdividing, and no you can't just do that to your hearts content. You need to get council etc sign off, new plots drawn up, etc.
Reddit does IP bans and device fingerprinting for site-wide permabans. When they banned my main account - after I deleted all my comments/posts and then deleted my account mind you, they then undeleted it all so they could ban it - within an hour of signing in to an alt account that had never made a post/comment/upvote/etc, it was also permanently banned.
It's not hard to get around these restrictions and use reddit if you do want to, but I don't want to.
Bluetooth audio is good enough when you’re comparing it to phone headphone jacks. Phones aren’t audiophile devices. No one is going to notice the difference in sound.
A 3.5mm jack adapter is as unintrusive as can be - it just stays on your headphone cable.
