20:15:47 From Neil Trevett
Hate to have to leave an awesome panel - have to beam to Shanghai for a conference presentation there - thanks again for the opportunity to participate! See y'all at SIGGRAPH :)
20:16:40 From Rubén Möller
What was Web 2? E-commerce?
20:16:49 From Tony Parisi
And social networking
20:17:22 From LASig Chapter
@Ruben: Interactive web pages (from a technical perspective)
20:17:01 From Tony Parisi
And Apple dominating apps
20:17:07 From Rubén Möller
I miss IRC :P
20:17:17 From Kaitlyn Yang
We are all drinking the Apple juice
20:17:32 From Tony Parisi
I’m living in Apple’s world and can’t escape
20:17:41 From Gerardo Javier Kuri

Web 4.0 "Delete/Repeat" ..hahaha
20:21:37 From Manish Singh Sunar
can LA Sighraph chapter member get access to LA Sighgaph event on August?
20:22:09 From Joan Collins to Manish Singh Sunar and all panelists:
The Conference is separate from the 50 world wide chapters.
20:22:29 From Rubén Möller
the crazy days of Flash Web design, that was a blast. This Web3 is unhinged in the same way no?
20:24:12 From Tony Parisi
Thank god Ruben
20:24:13 From Tony Parisi
yes
20:24:25 From Rubén Möller
Like RealEstate, kids are priced out of the tech.
20:24:51 From Rubén Möller
they can't afford the right gear.
20:28:01 From Joan Collins to Hosts and panelists:
Thank you, Jasmine!
20:28:50 From Rubén Möller
true, that's when big biz takes the reigns and slows it all down for profit.
20:29:48 From xray X
Whatever I think AI will be, I am wrong.
20:30:01 From Gerardo Javier Kuri
Would be interesting to plot some "S-curves" to know where each technology related to the metaverse is...

Creators might have fun and like to do things for free, but they still have to pay the rent or better - the mortgage!
20:34:06 From Tony Parisi
I love that, Fran

20:34:58 From Jenny Dana to Hosts and panelists:
Does AI eventually fold in on itself as AI gets trained on AI content rather than original content?
20:37:39 From Manish Singh Sunar
hi Jasmine, how I can connect with you? can I get your twitter handle.
20:41:34 From Rubén Möller
I still get stuck on the fact that open source is open source... how do you curb the exploitation.. send a block chain to halt all activity? isn't that ransom ware? seems the metaverse is going to be a member only club, maybe?
20:43:09 From xray X
This guy used ChatGPT to clone BeatSaber in Unity... He does already know Unity, but everthing was cut/pasted from ChatGPT...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-gljfPBw9w
20:43:19 From Tony Parisi
whoa
20:45:06 From xray X
The laws are so far behind...
I think eventually there will be a blanket declaration that output from a trained model does not infringe copyright.
20:45:55 From LASig Chapter
Laws are always far behind advancing technology. Nothing new there. The problem is how to fix that.
20:47:11 From Jenny Dana to Hosts and panelists:
Work within companies you are restricted by their legal teams, but individuals don’t have those handcuffs. So interesting dynamics in the short term.
20:47:21 From xray X
Japan has declared that using datasets for training AI models doesn't violate copyright law which opens up the doors for massive adoption of the tools.
20:48:04 From xray X
*see "Data Narcissism"
20:50:59 From Gerardo Javier Kuri
That's great!
