Age Gating Games, Warner Bros Vs Midjourney and Doing Objective Science

Nerds Amalgamated

Things get wild when Professor and DJ talk about stopping children from accessing in appropriate games.

Warner Bros are suing Midjourney for ripping off their art. With the recent case against OpenAI for pirating books, the precedent might not be on their side.

Science is hard to do objectively. There's always a bias, and good scientists find ways to minimise that. The Nerds talk through creating science to push a narrative, and why that's a bad thing.
