Yes every woman has been harassed, many assaulted. But every woman has also experienced invisible loss from moments she avoided harassment. She felt a space becoming unsafe, so she left, while men stayed on. And in leaving, she lost: opportunities, experiences, learning, promotions, even simply fun.

Det er en fin ide at hæve afgiften på elbiler. De er faldet i pris og selv med ny registreringsafgift vil den samlede økonomi stadig være bedre end en fossil bil. Og billige biler betyder flere biler, hvilket hverken er godt for sundhed, trængsel eller klima/miljø - elektrisk eller ej #dkpol

The tech industry has learning that overhyping the threat of its products is great PR. It leads to tons of free press, and now it’s allowing them to shape the regulatory discussion of their products — while distracting from the real ways people are being harmed today disconnect.blog/the-media-ha...
Tech industry deception about the supposed threat of their generative AI tools is nothing new. It’s in fact a well-worn playbook. OpenAI was using it all the way back in 2019 when it released GPT-2. Claiming its new AI model was so incredibly powerful it posed a threat to society was a fantastic marketing ploy, allowing it to capture global headlines and get a ton of free PR. Now they’ve moved on to using it to shape the conversation around their products, but the media seems determined not to learn anything from their consistent pattern of deception.

An individual in Canada used ChatGPT for eight months to plan one of the country’s worst mass shootings. Yet, if you listen to politicians and media, the real threat of AI is a fantastical scenario where it might wipe out humans in ten years. They need to stop getting fooled by tech deceivers.

The media has the AI threat all wrong
Generative AI is harming people today. We don’t need to waste time fantasizing about science fictional scenarios.

Det er et farligt sprogbrug, som fjerner fokus fra de ansvarlige. Tænk hvis man ved andre malwareangreb, som dette jo er, skrev "En virus har hacket sig ind i ...". Næsten værre end den sædvanlige passivform, der også fjerner den aktive udøver: "Systemet blev hacket". HVEM lavede AI-agenten?

This is going to be a thread of AI greenwashing getting pumped out at New York Climate Week Here's one from today: Siemens, raking in MOUNTAINS of $$ from selling gas turbines to data centres (not mentioned) says: “we are racing to mitigate this as fast as possible" apnews.com/article/clim...
On the other hand, Eva Riesenhuber, the head of sustainability at the German automation company Siemens, and Evelyn Wang, vice president for energy and climate at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, said AI is too important to humanity and will help tackle climate change.

Data centers adding to climate and water problems “is not forever,” according to Wang, who told The Associated Press that data centers are five years away from being water neutral and about a decade away from no longer adding to planet-warming emissions.

Acknowledging these concerns, Riesenhuber said “we are racing to mitigate this as fast as possible because we are hooked on the intelligence, and we do need the intelligence to design the future that this planet needs.”a chart showing siemens gas turbine sales will add emissions the equivalent to pakistan

Jeg er nysgerrig: Har man valgt at bruge AI som støtte fordi det var for svært at se hvor på billedet de rådne grise-kadavere befandt sig eller fordi det er for svært at tegne en ring? Er der en risiko for, at vi er lidt hurtige til at uddelegere vores tankevirksomhed til et grafikkort? #dkmedier
Screendump fra DR af et billede af to døde grise i Køge havn med teksten "Rettelse: Der fremgik tidligere et forkert billede i artiklen, hvor vi havde brugt kunstig intelligens til at sætte en ring om grisene. Det ændrede på billedet. Det er rettet til det originale billede. DR beklager fejlen."

NVIDIA is the largest company in the world, and has an ever increasing pollution footprint to match. In fact, since 2020, its indirect emissions have risen 725%, enough to match the product use emission of state-owned Russian coal. And they still claim to be a sustainability leader. #GreenSky 🧵
