There is no such thing as a Stupid Question!

Don't be embarrassed of your curiosity; everyone has questions that they may feel uncomfortable asking certain people, so this place gives you a nice area not to be judged about asking it. Everyone here is willing to help.


Reminder that the rules for lemmy.ca still apply!


Thanks for reading all of this, even if you didn't read all of this, and your eye started somewhere else, have a watermelon slice ๐Ÿ‰.

National headlines were made about the usage of AI to make someone "appear" in court. They even showed the AI showing footage to demonstrate what kind of person they were. Why couldn't they just stop with the initial footage of them at the counter? Why is making an AI of someone necessary if it's going to be based on things that can be read, seen, heard, or shown on their own anyways?

The way I understood it this was part of "show the impact of the crime" section of the trial. It isn't part of the evidence. It was just the victim's sister's way of showing her loss. It is more about emotions and less about facts. She was free to submit more or less whatever media she wanted. So this is not too different from some cheesy montage of the victim's photos and quotes or so.
