And what I’m calling “opportunity theft” is the theft of someone’s future and their potential by means of robbing them of appreticeship, menteeship, and experience now. Using AI to perform the tasks that students and trainees do in the early phases of training and education is opportunity theft.

i had a blog comment outraged that I called "AI" a marketing term coined to get funding from the DoD. of course, @ghostdoc2026.bsky.social features the clip of McCarthy proudly declaring it in the trailer, lol www.youtube.com/watch?v=i9DA... "AI" has been fake since 1955, yes, we have the film

Not art. Not created, generated by stealing works from other artists without their consent. ART IS HUMAN #resistAI #stopAI #artishuman This is scammy slop generated by an artist who can’t make it on their own talent, they have to steal from true artists.

As a general media literacy tip: If the claim is that someone used "AI" or "ChatGPT" to do something, the real story is probably something else.

I gotta say, I am really struggling to enjoy Peter Mansbridge’s Good Talk ever since he replaced Rob Russo with Bruce Anderson. I listen for Chantal Hébert anyway, but Anderson is so intensely pro-Carney that I actually find his insights veer away from genuine analysis into partisan spin.

Il y a quand même quelque chose de drôle de voir PSPP, qui dit être devenu indépendantiste à cause du scandale des commandites, utiliser le média d’un des acteurs du scandale des commandites… pour sa promotion…

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out: www.404media.co/ai-is-africa...

These layoffs could help Facebook's parent company offset its aggressive spending on AI infrastructure, as well as AI-related acquisitions and hiring.
