I’m not proud of not having used ChatGPT or whatever bc it’s … easy not to use it. Choosing not to use it has no impact on my day. Bc it’s not even good at the thing it’s supposed to be doing. It’d be like being proud of myself for not using a broken calculator to do math.

"Les grans empreses tecnològiques, els seus amos i els accionistes que representen no han dissenyat la IA amb l’objectiu d’abolir el treball assalariat, sinó per explotar la classe treballadora de manera més eficient i, fins i tot, per eliminar-la tant del sistema de producció com del social."

We break these staggering numbers down and put all this war spending into context. We also strongly put forward the view that a rise in war spending to 2% of GDP is itself completely unjustifiable and morally bankrupt.

LGBTQIA+ New Zealanders face discrimination, violence, and a lack of access to life-saving healthcare. So, I'm exercising for 42 minutes every day in June to raise money for life-changing LGBTQIA+ support services. Will you help me reach my $ goal? www.sweatwithpride.com/fundraisers/...

Big Tech uses the excuse of AI to make our lives more “efficient, convenient, and quicker.” But we do not need any of those to live a meaningful, loved, and beautiful life.

Now, there’s a new way to discourage friends, family, and even complete strangers from turning to chatbots like Claude and ChatGPT: by using a tool called “Slow LLM” to make them really, reaaaaalllyyy slowwwww. Or at least, making them look that way. www.404media.co/this-web-too...

There is zero reason why we have to let adobe continue to be """industry standard""" and why we have to use it. You just need a program that can handle PSD files. most other adobe stuff has direct/close to direct alternatives.. which a lot can still handle adobe files or can transfer things easier.

We're so excited to share new work from the world of EVERYTHING FOR EVERYONE! Project 2052 is a series that expands the world that @genderhorizon.com and @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social built in their speculative oral history of the New York Commune.

A beautiful acknowledgement of the ongoing devastation and heartbreak in Gaza. Thank you @thenation.com

One of the wonderful pieces in the special issue of Public Humanities I've been guest editing.

200 people. The world’s twin super villains have already killed 200 people in Iran.

Here’s what we know: this isn’t about Iran’s people—it’s about oil, wealth, and power. @emanabdelhadi.bsky.social lays out why this war has no mandate (and why de-escalation is the only way forward).

As US and Israeli bombs fell on Iran this weekend, bettors on Polymarket — where $529 million was traded on contracts tied to the timing of the strikes — were cashing in

If you don't say anywhere who the artist or designer of your book cover is, I'm going to assume it's AI and I won't buy the book. Crediting your artist / designer is more important now than ever.

Good news post! Selling 20,000 copies of a non-fiction book in Aotearoa is getting into 'best-seller' territory. (Cookbooks and rugby player biographies notwithstanding.) A book about the impacts of colonisation selling this well is HUGE.

VISAS NOW! is #1 on the Unity Wellington Bestseller chart. Congrats @murdochstephens.bsky.social, Left of the Equator, and everyone else involved 🙌 thespinoff.co.nz/books/11-04-...

‘They Even Assassinated My Library’ However, for me, the most precious of all the manuscripts in my library were the six stories I wrote in Israeli jail. These were the first stories I ever wrote, penned during a few months of incarceration following my participation in the First Intifada in 1992.…

I can't watch this and say nothing. The arrest of people lawfully here because of things they have said is nothing short of creating a new class of political prisoners. Then sweeping them away to Louisiana to evade the rule of law is atrocious. We cannot stay silent.

Doctors in West Texas— where there is a measles outbreak—are seeing unvaccinated hospitalized patients with signs of vitamin A toxicity. This is a result of misinformation and is what happens when you appoint an anti-vaxxer to lead the national health agency.

Full respect to Tamatha for not backing down but continuing to explain clearly and in a way which means she can continue to talk while her critics have flamed out on soundbites www.rnz.co.nz/news/politic...
