same with the AI flag in the video itself, ESPECIALLY for music
I wish all AI generated thumbnails a very "Don't recommend channel"

One unannounced game we know nothing about and they’re already ready to write off the past few years.

The guy who made the AI-generated Gen 1 recomp left a reply to my thread on Twitter (completely unprompted/untagged) saying all of my issues with that release were "inaccurate", so it was suggested I post my video comparison (with the sheer volume of bugs from just the intro alone) to here as well.

A developer who led on a fan-created PC 'decomp' port of Banjo-Kazooie says people using AI to rush out other ports (including a new Banjo-Tooie one) are in a "race to the bottom" which is "disrespectful" to decomp tool creators. www.videogameschronicle.com/news/banjo-k...

I'm spreading this since this is important: If you love man made content and adore retro content, do NOT support video game esoterica. They're actively damaging the decomp/recomp scene by continuing to push and endorse AI generated content, knowingly, and hiding comment calling them out.

A key component of the Cambridge Analytica outrage was your friends subjecting you to data theft without your consent or knowledge. Facebook is running the same playbook on your text messages. Even if you’re not on Meta properties, they’re ingesting your interactions.
Aten installed Muse on both his iPhone and a Mac mini that he uses to test out various Al agents and tech. It took Meta a single day to begin "helpfully" pitching article ideas based on texts he'd sent to a podcast co-host.
When he asked Muse how it got the information, it said that it read banners from incoming texts. But that's not true, either.
After doing a little digging, Aten says Muse synced 187,000 lines from his Messages database, despite Full Disk Access being Off.Unless Aten is the most popular person on the face of the planet, I sincerely doubt he'd gotten 187,000 lines of text in roughly 24 hours. What happened is that, without permission, Muse went into the app and downloaded the information.
He had not given Muse permission to access Messages, and full disk access was not enabled. It just went ahead and uploaded those texts anyway.
Muse can take "unexpected actions" indeed.

over the past few weeks several AI evaluation/cybersecurity experts have explained how what's happening is a result of human incompetence rather than "AI going rogue". I'm begging the media to show a shred of journalistic integrity and stop parroting what altman or amodei say

I have an unconventional solution to the loneliness crisis and the erasure of third spaces...
Marketing graphic for Nintendo Streetpass on the 3DS. It shows white stick figures going about their days and the two in the middle are walking away from each other, one has a tote bag the other a briefcase. It shows 3DSes in their bags and green arrows forming a circle between the people. At the bottom is two 3DSes doing a wireless communication thing between them.

I doubt they disclosed that Larry Ellison, de facto owner of CBS, owns Oracle, which is deeply, deeply in debt building AI data centers - and any AI bust will likely bankrupt Ellison. Complete corruption of CBS to become corporate propaganda for its owner.

underrated part of El-Sayed’s messaging strategy seems to be shaming journalists who ask dumb questions that play into right-wing frames. you can’t answer these in a way that satisfies them, but you can make it embarrassing enough that you impose a toll on asking.
Abdul El-Sayed: "Weijia, with all due respect, this is the third time you've asked about a Twitch streamer ... their whole game is to make us fight culture wars so that we don't pay attention to the fact the president has made $2.2 billion ... "

The international chess Federation banned trans women from playing women's chess. CHESS. It's not about fairness. The fairness argument is intended to radicalize people into more violent forms of transphobia.

When people say they’re anti-AI, they’re clearly talking about generative AI in the arts and LLM slop that C-Suite jackoffs want to use to replace them. You know this. I know this. Everyone knows this. So the “then don’t use spellcheck if you hate AI” talking point is disingenuous horseshit.
