"A.i." as an industry is a fascist undertaking led by fascist billionaires. Do not get sucked in. Deprive it of your support and brain and money as much as possible. The billionaires who benefit from it want to destroy us and all of our freedom and independence, literally.

Especially in the days before the internet (yes, I'm that old) could be a resource for someone else's writing on the subject. It was either write something or fail; fear of failure is a damn good motivator for most.

Keep this in mind and take your ballot to a drop box instead. Or at the least, mail it back as far ahead of election day as possible to avoid disenfranchising delays!

I agree it's impossible to avoid using anything that had AI in its construction, but disagree that minimizing individual use is the only thing we can do. We need to demand consequences for execs responsible for the negligent homicides and law-breaking, and tight regulations to mitigate harms.

Just piping up here for the way it stupidifies our social interactions. I have 2 ppl in my life who IN EVERY CONVERSATION say "I asked Chat GPT about blahblah and here's what it said." Like: dude, I don't care. It's an asshole. Your own curiosity is infinitely more valuable.

Using AI is almost certainly harmful to us cognitively, emotionally, creatively, and socially. We should not use it. We should not normalize it.

As a technology it is an absolute blight and the companies that own and control it should be held fully responsible, including criminally responsible, for every single harm.

You can't keep talking and hoping for jury nullification if you are the type always getting out of jury duty. We need people on our side to take jury duty as a duty to fight ICE abuse, rape and murder. Pressure everyone you know to stick with jury duty. You are our only hope in this corrupt system.

If you refuse to get ebooks from Jeff Bezos, you can still pick up Wild Faith for $2.99 from BN.com or Kobo or… let’s check… yep, Google Play also has the discounted price! If you want to learn about the multifaceted dangers of Christian nationalism, you should read this book.

This is precisely what I've been trying to hammer into the thick skulls of these "blue no matter who" "lesser of two evils" dumdums since Bernie's campaign for 2016. Politicians *earn* votes, they aren't owed a damn thing by any of us.

you will encounter more opportunities in life to change the batteries on a smoke alarm than you will to run into a burning building and no one gives a shit you changed those batteries but it is still very important and why are you waiting on a burning building, know what i’m saying, it’s a metaphor

it’s come to my attention that my tumblr post has been crossposted to bluesky, so I’m posting it on my account here #AntiAI #GenAI
recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence relies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

I think "family values" often means "valuing the preservation of the power hierarchy of the patriarchal family structure over the well being of the people in it."

When I moved to a new school in a very small town part way thru 7th grade, I was slow to make friends with the kids who had grown up there together. One of them told me a few years later, very seriously, "it's not cool to be smart". That broke our friendship for me.

As a former pretentious little shit who grew out of it, rationalists (et al) annoy the piss out of me because they are adults with the mentality of tweens - they are somehow still convinced they are the greatest geniuses who have ever walked the earth. It is the worldview of an arrogant baby.

When a missing woman has used drugs, traded sex, experienced homelessness, or had an arrest record, her disappearance is the consequence of a “high-risk lifestyle.” That phrase performs a moral trick. It shifts responsibility from the person who caused harm to the person forced to navigate danger.
