TIL a bunch of white dudes online today are very mad at someone calling out being bean counters so they're trying to convince people that any reference to bean counting is specifically a slur against women so you will stop using it against men like them yes it's the perpetually wrong econ bros

What gets me about these sorts of incidents is that they illustrate how many people are using AI for COMPLETELY USELESS purposes. There are already a million US maps and periodic tables! You can get them anywhere! What conceivable reason is there to have an LLM make one? It doesn't even save effort!

They have argued that COVID's not so bad since it mostly kills old and disabled people, that Gaza isnt a genocide, that the far right are brave truth-tellers, that trans people are a threat to children but MeToo and epstein files anger went too far: why act shocked when the MSM does nazi shit?

I think the glee people get from saying 'this can make for me without practice, and I can say I am a creator' is emotionally related to 'this is a thing I can make a person who can't say no to me,' instead of learning how to interact with people and learn about consent.

I don't think genAI need *inherently* be a rapist technology in a different society, but it sure is...notable...how many people immediately and gleefully sought to use it to assert power over artists, sex workers and random civilians

genAI is rapist technology. lack of consent and thrill of domination/conquest is the feature, not a side effect. it's about taking and violating the sanctity of what's precious to others.

Well, as a surprise to no one #Cara has been scraped again!. Another crook taking what’s not there’s. The damage this is doing to the platform both physically and financially is huge. The #GenAI movement is an absolute curse.
