There should genuinely be consequences for a single MSP using AI to generate so many questions that it costs civil servants over 4500 hours to respond to it.

Twitter is the world’s largest generator of CSAM & non-consensual porn by a margin of about 8000%, and somehow… MSM isn’t even reporting on it. (also includes advice for reporting ‘deepfake harassment’ to police if it escalates to a point where restraining order is necessary) youtu.be/p71qQKmIGhQ

On his official day, I hope St Andrew stuffs you with so much haggis

I agree, so I made a browser extension that does this by showing the AI disclosure as a popup on page load. github.com/seeeeew/aiwa...
