Pro tip that works well: if someone says something offensive, ask them to repeat it. "Sorry, what did you say there?" Act real dumb and say you don't get it. "What did you mean by that?" Having to explain is often enough to confront them with their own behaviour

‘The Anthropic scientists [..] said that their A.I. had taken “the first steps of a biological discovery on its own.” [Dr. Mestre] disputed that claim. “They are the same systems we have been studying for years” And they are the same enzymes, he said, that he had described to Anthropic’s A.I.”’

Did Anthropic’s A.I. Really Make a Scientific Discovery on Its Own? (Gift Article)

An expert at the University of Copenhagen said his team had been sharing its research with the company’s A.I. model, Claude, and that its new finding matched their work.

AP Stylebook warns against anthropomorphizing AI systems: “Avoid language that gives them human characteristics… Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.”

APStylebook @APStylebook

Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects.
Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.

They even made DoorDash apologize.

DoorDash on Instagram: We messed up.
Our mistakes meant some NYC Dashers were underpaid or paid late. That's unacceptable, and we're deeply sorry to the Dashers we let down.
We've reached a settlement with the City of New York, and we will make this right by paying every impacted Dasher the amounts they are owed.

We need to reintroduce the distinction between software company and tech company. a software company makes and sells software and may enjoy some economies of scale a tech company creates a software front-end to labor exploitation, is extraordinarily costly to run and requires regulatory capture

saw this on Instagram and it so perfectly encapsulated my rage

seravph
being so fr when I say that transmisogyny has put feminism back like 50 years

seravph
what i thought we had distanced ourselves from was the reduction of women to vaginas and wombs and the ability to bear children. i thought we had progressed past 'dresses are for women and pants are for men. i thought we progressed past the idea that someone is less of a woman if she does not adhere strictly to beauty standards. i thought we progressed past the idea that naturally being comfortable adhering to highly feminine standards is vulgar. but i (sarcastically) guess no one could have predicted that trans-exclusive feminism would be the downfall of all the progress we've made

Link and Navi — #OcarinaOfTime fan art 🥰

Colored pencil drawing of Link looking happily at Navi the fairy, in a classic pose used in original Ocarina of Time marketing materials, and an upcoming amiibo. It is slightly following the latest Ocarina of Time remake’s design updates with a feather and seeds in Link’s hat and an added vest over the tunic, but not to the same level of detail and texture. The color scheme is like a faux iridescence with colors ranging from bright white and yellow, to pink, purple, and dark blue.

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.”
