I don't use AI in my personal or professional writing, and will never, so some dipshit saying that actually everyone uses it is untrue in the same way that saying that nobody washes their hands after using the bathroom is untrue -- a lie to excuse a repulsive personal failing.

hey chat what does it mean when AI executives are getting eviscerated on the commencement stage while skeptics get thunderous applause asking for 7 of my closest hyperscalers

It is wild the number of supposedly “liberal” states that are being directly hit by trans healthcare bans because of this too. I know multiple people in fucking BOSTON and MASSACHUSETTS whom can’t get their meds. Check with your friends. And remember the Catholic Church is entirely worth resisting.

Anything you rely on AI to do is a skill you’ll lose. There’s a bunch of research on this. Stop using it for “just” anything

Unbelievably gorgeous work by @foxnoctom.bsky.social

if your stockroom uses u-line products your company is bankrolling this.

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

if i can evoke this sense of horror in my work i will be happy. this is an incredible piece www.currentaffairs.org/news/the-ban...

Funny how two+ years in and we're not hearing about all the massive success stories AI must be responsible for by now

oh no, i don't use the ai for <thing that i am paid to do> it's terrible at that. it's great for <thing you are paid to do> though.

Technology these days is just a never ending list of things to disable.

My big silly big dog ran me over on Sunday and we're both playing the price - so as karmic justice I'm gonna run my friends over with a big trampling dog in Commander tonight! Playing with @girldickenergy.bsky.social and @ambivalentagender.bsky.social right now! 👉 twitch.tv/tappytoeclaws 👈

I started this thread on twitter back in 2017. I add to it occasionally whenever the opportunity offers itself, but want to start it again so I can add to it on here. So… Amazing how grater technology has developed. My current grater (left) and an original 80s grater, the size of a brick!

Somehow this is a year old despite it being something I should have been sent 2000 times. I’m going to start using the phrase “brain-only” a lot in various bits

Teysa Karlov is my oldest deck (was Elenda first) but I haven't played it in years, and half a dozen cards have been scrounged for last minute stream brews. I just recently got back a signed basics upgrade shipment from @mountainmagesigs.com so I'm gonna tackle reassembling and updating it!

It's amazing that nobody will understand this: They don't think. They don't remember. They have no cognition. They're pattern matching systems that produce answer-shaped responses. This is no different that giving a script admin privileges, except this script is rewritten on the fly.

He kept getting pulled over because a db typo switched a "0" with a "O" and Flock Safety kept flagging him as wanted. This could be a life or death situation if a cop is in a mood. End Flock. End mass surveillance. Learn about your local cameras here: deflock.org

The unwritten caveat here of course being that they weren't paying taxes anyway, so net loss to the state is $0 and arguably a net positive societal gain

I love Corvids so much and happy to hear there is a #CrowandRavenAppreciationDay :3 I present a painting I did a couple of years ago

New comic is up. Here are my favorite bits. www.webtoons.com/en/canvas/cr...

On Facebook Jesper Myrfors had posted this and saw he's not on Bluesky so I wanted to copy & paste it here. I may not have many connections, but this means enough to me where I feel every little bit counts. There is one more paste in the comments, too, so please share! #mtgartist #magicthegathering

So Chat GPT will be taken offline right?

THE MERCHANT

I'll say it straight: you can't voluntarily and willingly use LLMs in a way that's aligned with respect for marginalized folks, with respect for the environment, with respect for labor issues and rights, with respect for art, and with respect for the community aspects of things like open source.

The SPLC has long monitored and exposed white nationalist and Christian nationalist hate groups, so it makes sense that an administration staffed by many people sympathetic to one or both of those movements would use the DOJ to go after them.

3 out of every 5 men who died in the Civil War died of communicable disease.

“An analysis revealed multiple oddities that would not be expected for data from real people, leading Barnett and his colleagues to suspect that the data could have been fabricated. “It was an enormous surprise to come across something like that,” Barnett says.”

I think about this all the time

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

I really wish more people had paid attention when several observers tried to warn about the technofascist and eugenicist tendencies of thiel and karp and that group, for rolling up on two decades, now. And i *Really* wish the media & political actors would take the threat of them seriously, today 😕

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

the basic theory of DOGE was that if powerful people said it was fine it didn’t matter what the law said. I think proving that theory wrong is worth significant effort

"Why do we keep trusting AI?"

If it's not useful why is it fuckin' in there

From new Hungarian Prime Minister Péter Magyar's acceptance speech tonight. This is the absolute BARE MINIMUM platform for any Democrat running for President in 2028.

Not sure what I'd choose for a general translation, but if I were translating it into my own personal way of speaking... I don't know if I've started a single daily challenge run video in the past 12 years any way other than "All right..."

holy shit he actually conceded folks, they tell you they’re invincible they tell you they’re inevitable they tell you that you should give up and stop fighting and absolutely none of that is true

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee

covid is still a thing, I was otherwise healthy before getting this sans a rare genetic thing that doesn't impact my life all that much otherwise who no one knew would be a high risk vector because there's just not that many of my kind of mutant, mask up in risky scenarios to dodge this shit!

It has been noticed that I played Tactical Breach Wizards, and so demands were made for Tactical Beach Wizard.

interesting that when a movie with female protagonists does poorly the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists and when a movie with female protagonists is a huge hit the response is to cancel upcoming projects with female protagonists
