The glass octopus (Vitreledonella richardi) has a body that is almost completely transparent. They live water column instead of on the sea floor, so this helps them avoid being seen by predators. The only parts of its body that are opaque are its eyes, digestive tract and chromatophores #OCTOtober

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.

Just tax the compute. Datacentre? Cool. Fund your own power generation and water reservoirs, and then pay tax for every computational act your datacentre does. And we'll use the tax income to offset societal and job damage. Overnight, AI becomes something AI giants are desperate to restrict.

AI brings genuine benefits. Medical research, better understanding of complex systems. Useful. Keep that. Making 25% of us permanently unemployed and rendering pics of Fat Johnny Depp is not useful. It harms the planet and society. If it costs users money, it will stop. So tax the compute.

Ultimately if you let your dog off the leash and it attacks someone, it's not the dog who should be in court. Someone, pref govt level, needs to set a precedent ASAP to control these #AI companies, and sue for damage- if it was done for copyright in training data then it should be done for hacking

Of all the books we've been recommended for our #HumanistBookshelf, Carl Sagan's The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark has been recommended more than any other. It's easy to see why.
‘I have a foreboding of an America in my children’s or grandchildren’s time – when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues... when, clutching our crystals and nervously consulting our horoscopes, our critical faculties in decline, unable to distinguish between what feels good and what’s true, we slide, almost without noticing, back into superstition and darkness.’ Carl Sagan. Cosmologist, author, humanist.
