Nailed it right there. They care more about this one squirrel than the women who die from pregnancies gone wrong because doctors can't treat them without opening themselves up to legal problems, the Haitians and Puerto Ricans who find themselves threatened and ostracized because of Trump and Vance's words, etc.

How do the actions of the prompter differ from the actions of someone who commissions an artist to create a work of art?
Ah, but there is a fundamental difference there. A photographer takes a picture, they do not tell the camera to take a picture for them.
It is the difference between speech and action.
Because it wasn't created by a human being.
If I ask an artist to create a work, the artist owns authorship of that work, no matter how long I spent discussing the particulars of the work with them. Hours? Days? Months? Doesn't matter. They may choose to share or reassign some or all of the rights that go with that, but initial authorship resides with them. Why should that change if that discussion is happening not with an artist, but with an AI?
The only change is that, not being a human being, an AI cannot hold copyright. Which means a work created by an AI is not copyrightable. The prompter owns the prompt, not the final result.
So what you're saying is that the AI is the artist, not the prompter. The AI is performing the labor of creating the work, at the request of the prompter, like the hypothetical art student you mentioned did, and the prompter is not the creator any more than I would be if I kindly asked an art student to paint me a picture.
In which case, the AI is the thing that gets the authorial credit, not the prompter. And since AI is not a person, anything it authors cannot be subjected to copyright, just like when that monkey took a selfie.
I'm still not sure why there is vegetarian Spam, but...
Because there are Hawaiians who don't eat meat.
Oh, you missed out so much. Fortunately, the site is still mostly usable, though last time I checked, the games did not work.
Sure, and it's fine when a meme flops. But this person was apparently being an asshole about the entire concept of memes.
My wife is into things I'm not into. Sometimes she even drops references to those things into conversations that I don't get. You know what I don't do? I don't say, "So, I'm supposed to memorize all these TV shows in order to have a conversation with you?" That's being a jerk, and completely unnecessary. I just kinda politely smile and nod, and move on.
where I suggested that she's done no more harm than male grifters and that the dislike of her as a person was primarily due to misogyny.
I mean, I don't know about you, but I dislike most, if not all, grifters as people, regardless of their gender. They are shitty people.
The animal wasn't killed because the owner didn't have papers. The animal was killed because it was on video several times biting it's owner, and you cannot test for rabies without killing the animal and examining its brain.
