we have control mechanisms for this. it's called The Law. these guys should be held personally liable for these harms. the suicides, the thefts, the intrusions into computer systems. they should be sued and prosecuted as appropriate. problem immediately solved

I can’t believe this wonderful bargain! it might seem too good to be true, but it is legit. Some of the best SFF novels by one of the best authors, and many with cover art by @michaelwhelan.bsky.social, another icon in the SFF world.

There is no good use of generative AI because the technology was built on theft of creative labor. If that position surprises you from an artist whose life's work was scraped and used without permission to train trillion dollar technology, educate yourself. www.michaelwhelan.com/faq/#digital...

Increasingly, Soylent Green serves as one of the best metaphors for AI -- it's taking all that we are, as people, chumming it up, and feeding the slurry back to us. We're told that we need it, it's nutritious, it'll save the world, even as it damns it and us.

I wrote about the way that killing people seems to just be another cost of doing business, and a modest proposal for a reversal in the ways our systems of commerce, government, and law operate that just might provide an effective deterrent. www.the-reframe.com/the-cost-of-...

It's so weird when features are worded as threats. It's not "now you can talk to Gmail!" No, it's "Gmail is going to start talking to you." I don't know if it's reflective of the technology or of The Verge specifically, but it's definitely something matriculating down from AI techbro attitudes.

I need to know what “radically pro-transgender” means. If that’s like armed groups abducting kids and giving them unwanted surgeries, sure, go get ‘em boys! But if it means “doesn’t believe the government has the right to tell us how to dress or identify” then this administration are the terrorists.

A statement from the president: In addition to cartels and Islamist terror groups, our national CT activities will also prioritize the rapid identification and neutralization of violent secular political groups whose ideology is anti-American, radically pro-transgender, and anarchist. We will use all the tools constitutionally available to us to map them at home, identify their membership, map their ties to international organizations like Antifa, and use law enforcement tools to cripple them operationally before they can maim or kill the innocent. We will do the same with the state sponsors of such groups and those governments undertaking lethal plots on U.S. soil or against Americans anywhere.
Our new U.S. Counterterrorism Strategy is a return to common sense and Peace through Strength. As I said after our first successful counterterrorism mission, just days after I was sworn back in office - if you hurt Americans, or are planning to hurt Americans, "We Will Find You and We Will Kill You."

Tried taking a break from doomscrolling by reading Empire of the Vampire by @misterkristoff.bsky.social, but can’t seem to get my head out of the stupid evil we are living through:

Give someone the power to do anything they want, and they’ll do exactly that. That’s the horrifying part—the only thing holding some folk back from the worst atrocities they can imagine is the fear they might not get away with it.

As always: Republicans are going to kill us all, and Democrats are going to get us all killed. Republicans want to murder trans human beings and erase them from existence but that doesn't mean the Democrats aren't terrible on this issue and will instead just let them wither and die without support.
