This one baffles me...so they are creating a museum based around the Ship of Theseus? A museum is supposed to preserve things. It doesn't really work if the conversation goes, "I gazed upon Starry Night the other day, the colours were beautiful!" "Yeah...I didn't expect Godzilla to show up, though." Create a building devoted to displaying AI work, fine. The rainforest idea sounds interesting and I would consider visiting if they pay me a few bucks. But don't call it a museum... -

>defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool It is not. It is the inhuman artist replacement. The human writing the prompt is the employer/manager requesting the work product of the artist -- a supervisory/descriptive job that doesn't carry with it any rights to the copyright of that work product at all. And since AI is not human itself, it can't gain copyright for anything it is asked to regurgitate or hallucinate, so it can't transfer that copyright to the employer/manager/human who asked for the output. This was all legally reaffirmed last year. So, no, while there are AI tools, AI slopware generation is NOT a "tool" in the legal definition of that word. -

Google is opening the world's first AI museum in Los Angeles by Ivan Jenic Image via: Google Ever since AI image generators went mainstream, the debate over whether AI-generated art is real art hasn't let up. Those who don’t consider AI to be art say that if a machine does the creating and anyone can prompt it, there’s no skill involved, and therefore no art is produced. The counter-argument is equally persistent, as defenders of AI-generated artworks often claim that AI is just a tool, and that every major technological breakthrough, like the camera or the computer, was met with the same skepticism before eventually being accepted as a legitimate creative medium. Google’s position in this debate is clear. Which is no surprise, as the company is investing billions in AI infrastructure. And now, in efforts to encourage people to use its AI even more, Google is opening Dataland on June 20, which it's calling the world's first AI arts museum. Located inside The Grand LA, a Frank Gehry-designed building in Los Angeles, the museum spans 25,000 square feet. The museum is built around a collaboration with media artist Refik Anadol, who has worked with Google since 2016. The inaugural exhibition is called Machine Dreams: Rainforest, and is powered by an AI model trained on “an extensive dataset of the natural world.” It generates 1.2 billion pixels of visuals in real time and reacts to visitors dynamically. The space also generates soundscapes, real-time emotion sensing, and algorithmically produced scents. Image via: Refik Anadol Studio / Google Google says that the museum is powered by its Gemini models, which run on Google Cloud. So, everything is generated inside one of Google’s AI data centers and is streamed to the museum. Alongside the museum opening, Google Arts & Culture is funding an AI Artist Residency, giving four artists $25,000 grants each, along with mentorship from Refik Anadol Studio and access to Google's machine learning tools. Their work will be shown at Dataland and on the Google Arts & Culture website later this year. Google’s AI museum will undoubtedly initiate a fired-up debate on social media, and we can’t wait to see the first reactions. Via: Smithsonian Magazine -

Calling GTA 6 overhyped crap doesn’t make you edgy, it just makes you sound like someone who hasn’t enjoyed anything since the PS2 era.

Question
DirtyLarry Veteran
Okay, I just installed xp64 on another partition, just to play around with for right now. I started a thread about it here, which goes from my initial questions/concerns to my current state of xp64.
So far, so very good.
However, I disconnect my ethernet cables everytime I boot into xp64, because I am as you could imagine very scared to be connected at all since I currently have no Anti Virus software installed.
Sadly my personal favorite and what I have running currently on XP2, Nod32, is not yet supported/working properly for xp64.
I googled the topic before I started this thread, and I read alot of ups and downs and conflicting stories about what to use, so I am asking anyone who is currently running xp64, what they are using?
So my question is, what is a good, well known/trusted, working Anti Virus App for xp64?
Since for all practical purposes I am just playing around with xp64 right now, I dont mind using trial software as long as it is easy to uninstall (i.e. not like Nortons), so I am open to that. I already downloaded Kaspersky as this was one app I kept seeing being mentioned, but I am curious before I do install it to see if there are any other recomendations from any members.
Of course if there is a freeware alternative, that would be the best scenario, but I am not holding my breath on that one.
Also, since it is semi on the same topic, does anyone know if Spybot and AdAware run okay on xp64?
TIA to anyone that can help, and I hope this thread can also be used as a reference for members in the near future as well.
