Resisting AI is a social justice issue. "Asking ‘who does this technology actually serve?’ is crucial for understanding its societal impact, making this question central to critical thinking." Via @ianbetteridge.com's excellent / essential weekly briefing. www.ianbetteridge.com/ten-blue-lin...

This is excellent. I'd suggest that everything Darius writes about music and culture is also an urget alert for the unregulated AI monopolies that are forming too rapidly.

When we lose an important musician BBC 6Music always handle it beautifully, in depth and with the best of the artist's work. Bravo @huwstephensdj.bsky.social @matteveritt.bsky.social & @johnrobbofficial.bsky.social you honoured Mani well. youtu.be/7NrLBlw9WZE?...

This is really good. I felt like it changed my entrenched positions on several things, so I’m going to listen again and make notes. Matt's conversations *always* challenge my thinking and what better review is there than that? #activism #lookingsideways www.wearelookingsideways.com/p/the-announ...

Simple but deep wisdom. PS: @michaelpedersen.bsky.social 's book Boy Friends is a most excellent read on male friendship, and navigating grief, and much funnier than that sounds.

The truly maddening thing is that, unlike when I was a young man in science and the materials and engineering just weren’t there yet, the future is *right there.* The problem is *solved*. What’s holding us back is not just greed, but this bizarre nostalgia, an obsession with petro- masculinity.

"If you’re a billionaire, why are you a billionaire? No hate, but yeah, give your money away, shorties."⁠ Billie gave $11.5 million of her tour proceeds to charity so she's got the moral high ground. I bet she'd support a sensible wealth tax so it's not voluntary. youtube.com/shorts/h8KdD...
