Just helping with editing here. These bots aren’t sentient. They’re doing what they’re programmed to do. OpenAI, a private company supposedly bound by laws, committed federal crimes.

Nos encontramos en el vértice de una transformación de época en la que la Inteligencia
Artificial en general, y la Inteligencia Artificial Generativa en particular, están suponiendo
ya un extraordinario desafío para el conjunto de la actividad humana, pero muy
especialmente para el trabajo y, en el caso particular que nos ocupa, para la actividad
artística.
Prometeo le entregó el fuego a la humanidad como primer gesto de democratización
de un bien inalcanzable y como mito de nuestra capacidad para gobernarlo a través de
las capacidades humanas. La llegada del fuego del reino de los dioses es también el
fin del paraíso eterno y el nacimiento de la autonomía de la humanidad. El dominio del
fuego usurpado a los dioses funda tanto la posibilidad de emancipación como la de la
explotación del trabajo. Es la historia de la capacidad para manipular una herramienta
amenazante y convertirla en técnica e innovación.
En 1818, Mary Shelley, publicó “Frankenstein, El Moderno Prometeo”, considerada la
primera novela de ciencia ficción de la historia, y enfrentó el reverso del mito. La Criatura
que crea Víctor Frankenstein es el producto de una sociedad incapaz de gobernar las
nuevas formas del fuego mítico. La electricidad, base de la modernidad, produce un ser
sin derechos, una amalgama de cuerpos que la sociedad identifica como monstruoso
pero que tiene la capacidad de aprender y la curiosidad para ser humano. Humanizar
es aprender, es crear y es convertirse con ello en sujeto de derechos.

"I belong to a cult. Someone did some research that undermines the core tenets of my cult and came up with a catchy phrase that makes it harder to recruit more people to my cult. This makes me sad."

Screencap of tweet on X from @jackclarkSF (Jack Clark):

"stochastic parrot" was a mimetically-fit cognitive virus that spread from 2021-2025; it temporarily blinded many gifted people to the nature of AI progress, burning up crucial years in which they could have helped think through the response to the situation.

Eye popping. Court just unsealed Summary Judgment motions in New York Times v OpenAI / Microsoft. Easy to see why the AI companies had so many redactions (pink). Their own people wrote the lede for NYT, the "largest theft of labor in human history"... "more and more substitutive..." /1

“An astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions” and the “largest theft of labor in human history” is what a Microsoft executive privately said about GenAi as shown in newly unsealed court filings. And these court filings get worse. These execs knew all along the immense theft they committed.

"Millions of people around the world will soon consider large models ‘hoovering up’ all their work to be an astonishing theft of unprecedented proportions."

On Ocarina of Time redesign: It’s not Roccoco. It’s just over designed and can be easily fixed with more areas of rest! Lean in on the foundational elements and principles of design as they are a fantastic guiding light on achieving good design. That’s all from me 💖

Big tech paused CA’s GenAi transparency bill AB412 behind closed doors. However, over 3.8 million creative workers have come together to demand transparency! This coalition isn’t going anywhere! Its sponsors, CAA, SAG AFTRA, NAVA Voices & The Author’s Guild have next steps! Here’s what to do👇

AB-412 UPDATE
The Al Copyright Transparency Act
WE'RE NOT GOING AWAY
Artists & Creators Must Have Transparency!
The irony of a transparency bill dying in the dark is not lost on those of us in the creative community.
Big Tech is terrified of transparency. Big Tech, who has fought us every step of the way on the Al Copyright Transparency Act, has now succeeded in getting the legislature to kill AB-412 behind the closed doors of an appropriations committee.
It should be noted that AB-412 was a bill that had no fiscal appropriation whatsoever.
This will be devastating to the creative industries, their IP, and the hundreds of thousands of creative workers who bring billions of dollars to California's economy. Creative workers are struggling, and this very simple transparency bill could have helped countless people. The issue is not going away, and delaying workable solutions for such an increasing problem will only make the situation worse for everybody.
Our coalition representing more than 3.8 million individuals, brought creative workers from every corner of the creative economy together with a unified voice. Our bill passed out of the California Assembly, four committees in the State legislature, and several hundred individuals showed up at every single public hearing to say just how much a bill like AB-412 could help them. This issue is not going away. We are not going away. We are now moving to put our energy towards the next best steps.
Please take a moment to contact Assembly Member Rebecca Bauer-Kahan (916) 319-2016 and Assembly Member Ash Kalra (916) 319-2025 to thank them for their leadership in authoring and Co-Authoring this bill respectively.
Please express to them our request that they bring this bill back next session. Please tell everyone you know to contact them as well.
AB-412 simply affects too many people to simply be swept away into a corner and decided in the dark.
Sincerely, SAG•AFTRA CONCEPT ART ASSOCIATION
NAVA VOICE ACTORS AG AuthorsTRANSPARENCY SHOULDN'T BE DECIDED IN THE DARK.
Big Tech wants AB 412 stopped behind closed doors. A bill affecting hundreds of thousands of California creatives deserves a public hearing.
Call Assembly Members Rebecca Bauer-Kahan at
(916)319-2016 and Ash Kalra at (916)319-2025
thanking them for their leadership in authoring this bill and requesting they bring AB 412 back next session.

🔇 🔇 🔇 My book, Deep Unlearning, is now available for preorders! I don't know how people write so many books because this one took a lot out of me. It turns out, I had a lot to say 😂, with editors cutting out 50k of my words 🫣 ✴️ You can now preorder it at www.simonandschuster.com/books/Deep-U....

Cover of my new book, Deep Unlearning: The Rise of AI and The Radicalization of a Tech Idealist. 

There are two concentric circles in the book, the left being circuits in black an white, and the right being a bunch of dots with orange accents. The cover background is cream. And the words are written in black except for "Un" which is in orange.

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things. Here’s a blurb on what I mean:

Some thoughts:
When using GenAi as a mood board you don't get sources. This means you deprive yourself from knowledge.
You generated a location? You deprived yourself of knowing more about the interesting parts of the world and why things came to be.
Generate an armor or costume? You deprived yourself on real world techniques, function, form and history.
You generated art inspirations? You deprive yourself of learning about artists from history or lock out living ones from potentially being hired.
Ethical issues of using GenAi models aside, one ends up making visuals mood boards devoid of reality and history. With it one deprives themselves from learning about our world and who is living in it, inadvertently making your work weaker, because of how detached it is from our shared human reality and history.

Hey #sanfrancisco and friends who use tik tok. If you see a video of a couple (man with dark curly hair, and woman with black short hair, tall, white) in San Francisco, crossing Chez Maman in Hayes Valley, they just pepper sprayed the entire restaurant, my mom, me and our foster dog. If you see

Epic’s law team when they remember there are over 110 lawsuits against GenAi models in the US—lawsuits for copyright infringement amongst other violations— and the Unreal team is out there advertising LLMs as a central feature to one of their biggest products.

'The road to Unreal Engine 6' - www.unrealengine.com/news/the-roa... "for UE6, we see LLMs, generative AI models, and tools like Claude and Codex playing a central role in helping you build content faster while maintaining the creative control you need."

So sick and tired of San Francisco consistently blocking off tax paying public spaces for bs ai companies. Yerba Buena park closed yet again. San Franciscans cant even enjoy the little nature we have downtown without it consistently having it be closed off by tech companies 😭 @sfgov.sf.gov

A whole tax payer funded park park blocked off by tech companies
