I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

i love when my insane crockpot future ideas on tech companies end up being confirmed as true 😇 my close friends know that i've been worried about amazon using twitch audio & video feeds to train alexa since 2022: 2 years before it became public that twitch was "interested in AI" 🤭

one of the perks to critical thought is that you are very rarely blindslighted 🥰 (the OP is about twitch's announcement to start using streams to train amazon AI, which DUH that's why amazon has been keeping twitch data for cheap this whole time)

People with power love to try to convince everyone else that they only do what they have to do when the truth is that they mostly do what they want to do. Barring students from wearing bonnets and slippers to the dining hall is not something anyone has to do.

I’ve taught college for 10+ years. I’ve never cared what they wore except if they were dressed or groomed in a way that made me concerned about physical or mental wellbeing or safety. A classroom isn’t the workplace. It is a place of learning, and I encourage students to come as they are/want to be.

These days, they probably won’t even need one. I’ve worked white collar nearly my whole adult life. I’ve never worn a business suit to work nor needed one. Only place I’ve ever actually worn a suit? Church.

A nigga can’t even roll out of bed and grab a bagel at the dining hall??? Our ancestors got their asses beat and got barred from establishments regularly while wearing business attire. Respectability politics in Black spaces is so extra ugly.

Literally for years audiences have been giving Netflix quoi? face over their bizarre cancellations of shows people actually liked. And we keep having it explained that it's because of some secret algorithm that doesn't care if people like the shows.

I'm pretty sure what would help is Netflix not abandoning good scripted series after a single season. Because all they've been doing is conditioning viewers not to get attached.

If you don't want people to speak poorly of you when you die, don't be a horrible monstrous bigot, who dedicated their life to oppressing and killing people. Don't sanitize the legacy of dead oppressors. May he learn the hard way in death the compassion he refused to learn & give in life.

I’m a big crocheter and I’ve bought a lot of wool from Hobbii over the years. Safe to say I will absolutely never use them again. Even before we get into anything even more serious, generative ai is destroying the crochet and knitting community. Support your local wool shop.

A LinkedIn screenshot from the company “Hobbii”, which reads:
“Let's be honest: Nobody has 100% control over AI
Is this image Al? No doubt about it.
At Hobbii, we use Al a lot. It has clear perks-like saving our tech team from long, awkward photoshoots (even if the consequence is a photo that looks a bit more staged than casual, it hopefully gets the job done)...
Beyond the quick wins and the fun images, there's a real conversation to be had.
Right now, the industry narrative is obsessed with convenience. "Faster, cheaper, automated." But at what cost?
As we integrate LLMs deeper into our tech stacks, we're facing a shift that most corporate posts ignore: The steady trade-off between scaling and sovereignty.
At Hobbii, we're constantly navigating three conflicting perspectives:
• The excitement of building in and playing with new possibilities.
• The strategic concern over losing control of our own data foundations.
• The human question: What does this do to our autonomy and how we develop knowledge?
There are no easy answers or polished slides for this.”
