There’s a funny Politico story showing that the latest polling on AI shows 80-20 in favor of heavy regulations, an absolute slam dunk platform, but Dems are worried about not winning back mask-off tech CEO donors www.politico.com/news/magazin...

Sadly, this IS the actual policy of some universities -their idea of preparing students to the labour market. Let's see how many generation we waste and condemn them to illiteracy and incompetence.

Same concerns with lawyers using AI

Fuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software. Just fuck you. Fuck you all. I can't remember the last time I was this angry.

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

everyone should read sharma's home rule and adopt her framework of people as *migrantized* by the world nation-state system, like how people are *criminalized* by state justice systems, to mark them as undesirable and disposable, targets for policing, trafficking, confinement, and liquidation

Discovery of the week: turns out there exists a literal "I hate [insert my name]" club. Haters join from pro-and anti-AI crowd, as they misunderstand my work, call me stupid & spread online hate. Misogyny is a hell of a drug Kinda assuring that the figures in my papers are giving them headaches

Look at this guy’s incredible hat and fancy moustache--would he really strangle 19 of his brothers? Be serious.

I’ll just note that the US didn’t do this to China, which outright bans US social media websites

Alex a raison. Je me permets de reposter un court extrait de la dernière vidéo de Spice8Rack qui illustre parfaitement le mécanisme d'autopersuasion à l'œuvre derrière la normalisation des idées validistes ; qui étaient à la racine de l'acceptation de la doctrine eugéniste des nazis, je le rappelle.

ireland has had self-id for a decade and there has been no increase in violence against women and there has been no erosion of women's rights or safety it's a success story @theguardian.com: ireland has had self-id for a decade. here's why that's a danger to women, children, and your grandma

@malk-zameth.bsky.social G’day wishing you the compliments of the season 🎄 Also it’s your fault I’m reading Baudrillard’s Simulacra and Simulation this vacation 🤣

I feel like there's a word for a legal system that explicitly has different rules for different ethnic groups: www.cbc.ca/news/world/i...

Predicting I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of this thread.

French publishing house Harlequin decided to use AI translation instead of human translations. All their freelance translators (some of whom had been working with Harlequin for +30y!!!) were told they would no longer receive work from Harlequin

David Brooks is now the third alleged Jeffery Epstein associate at the New York Times. This potentially includes A.G. Sulzberger, the current chairman of the NYT board. The NYT published this piece by David Brooks about Epstein less than a month ago. Why did their executive leadership allow this?

This thread rules. People have been coming up with great turns of phrase for as long as language has existed. Lots of folks trying to catch the tail of the lion who wind up sinking in the river these days

Exactly 🤣

The eternal pendulum from “You are exaggerating and your prediction could never happen” to “nobody could predict this ever happened” 🤡

Musk WILL turn off Starlink when Ukraine counter-attacks. Musk WON'T disable Russia's use of Starlink. But sure, buy a Tesla. Line the Russia-supporting Nazi's pockets. Pretend like it's just the normal "business as usual".

This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites. The real hero is a fruit stand owner named Ahmed el Ahmed.

"Researching & reflecting on the harms of AI is not itself harm reduction. It may even contribute to rationalizing, normalizing, & enabling harm. Critical reflection without appropriate action is thus quintessentially critical washing." Good companion read to 'Why AI transparency is not enough'

Sinon, les ami•es je vous souhaite un superbe

This is the PR strategy fb and google have played us (and our elected officials) with since the turn of the century. And it’s worked really well for them and their shareholders. Especially Zuckerberg. Altman is now following the same playbook.

Sam Altman: hey I made a machine that stole literally all your stuff in order to make CSAM of your child actors, sometimes it encourages people to kill themselves Disney: Holy shit here's a billion dollars Altman: the machine loses more than that each week but thank you. Soon it will become god.

6yo niece: i can write but not words

No exceptions. If you use Gen A I in any capacity whatsoever, you suck. Yes, the way you're using it too. You're not special. "She probably doesn't mean me" I do.

Those weird Elsa at the dentist pregnant videos will now be included in your Disney+ subscription and you will like it

Now imagine sharing your private fantasies with what you believe is a bot that cannot judge or remember. Just that, on the other side, is a man in a one-room home in Nairobi, pretending to be an AI companion. That man is Michael, and this is his story: data-workers.org/michael/

À la surprise de personne et notre degout à toustes le plan macroniste d’euthanasie est de faire le meme truc que le Canada a fait : tuer des Personnes qui veulent vivre et qu’on sait aider à vivre.

"AI" corpos are running text search against model output. So if their search isn't perfect, unsafe responses will get through. I knew it was bad, but I hadn't grasped just *how* bad. And the USA economy is propped up by this. We're all fucked. The coming economic depression may last decades.
