Pas vraiment un métier, j’alternerais probablement entre glandouille, créations de trucs divers et variés plus ou moins inutiles , découvertes/apprentissages de nouvelles choses, bref des loisirs plus ou moins creatifs, je pense.

I don't know anyone who would try to defend Clinton against any sort of accusation that was minimally credible and related to his uncontrolled appetites.
We all know he's a cad. We all know that he's a cheater. He has made his own reputation unstainable. https://

GOP greatly overestimates the number of fucks GenX and younger give about Bill Clinton.

I would be happy if the AI industry actually had to pay authors for their work in accumulating ideas and knowledge and expressing them via their copyrighted works (registered copyright or not.)
The AI industry is whining "we are so big, we need to violate the law, we need to steal the work of others without even the pretense of compensating them, oh woe are we, oh woe are we".

Hope and imagination aren't just a nice things. Authoritarianism is rooted in doom. Authoritarianism is naturally unstable. It's naturally weak. It's extremely complex and fragile. Authoritarian regimes often collapse rapidly and catastrophically. They keep people pinned in place by removing hope. They heap trauma on their victims because trauma destroys hope and reduces creativity. So hope and imagination are the most powerful weapons against authoritarianism.
The regime tells you that things can only get worse. The regime needs you to believe it. They want you to fight on their terms, so they can pick you off, or to run or freeze, so they don't have to fight you at all. Authoritarianism must kill the creativity of it's victims, because authoritarianism has already killed it's own creativity. When you respond with hope and creativity, the system cannot adapt.
It is not simply that we should imagine what could be because we may have the opportunity to create it. It is that hope manifests the opportunity to create what we've imagined.
