> I don’t know exact parallels in current law, but I presume there will be things like that.

This is the difference between "knowingly" doing something (i.e. intent) and "negligently" allowing something to happen.

In American law, typically intent is more for criminal law and negligence is for liability of civil damages.

So far, no one. It's like prosecuting an accident.

The question might be asked "why would we assume the singer isn't singing about themself?" In modern pop music it's become it's become standard that the "character" an artist "plays" when they're performing or writing is themself; there's no suspension of disbelief like with a play where there's an entire context around knowing that what you're seeing is a portrayal. Same with a book or movie or other works of fiction, and with those forms of media it's clear when you're seeing or reading fiction or non-fiction.

In a sense, some artists write novels and some write memoirs.

It's cool to see Chris Staecker's channel getting some love, he brings a a kind of joy I miss from the old internet. I know it's still around, but it certainly feels more difficult to find and suppressed in many ways.

I can also recommend Raw Therapee as an open source raw editor.

I'm reminded of a graphic novel by Barry Jones called "The Book of Niall" about an actor going through "depersonalization-derealization disorder", a similar form of dissociation that the author himself struggled with. It's really difficult to describe but the graphic novel I think does it well. Highly recommend it

Kinda? Routing can be compared and benchmarked pretty easily so I'm not as worried about it

How many tokens did it burn doing that instead of just vendoring?

Like I said in a separate comment, these tools are written and trained by corporations first and foremost, they'll always have conflicting interests.

> Model Routing will always be done better by models themselves.

> The models themselves will get better at this and frontier companies will simply give that capability

I would never trust something like model routing to the same company that would profit from it, and that goes for telling models doing their own routing when that could easily be trained into the model to make things more expensive. Sort of a conflict of interest.

Models are first and foremost trained by corporations.

I mean you could probably say that for most crud applications, the difference is somebody else is already done the work of setting everything up and it looks nice
