I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Fat Horse No. 28 It’s the year of the horse and I’ve always been a horse girl at heart, so I’m finally taking advantage of the excuse to fill the world with fat little horses! These felted friends are the size and shape of an apple, and if you have any apples to share I’m sure they’d help you out!

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.

Avner Gvaryahu is a former IDF officer. The article is powerful. Human systems perform atrocities, but with friction in the form of internal objections and critique, whistleblowers, trauma, and those who show courage in ways that Gvaryahu has. The purpose of automation is to remove that friction.

These aren’t AI firms, they’re defense contractors. We can’t let them hide behind their models | Avner Gvaryahu

From Gaza to Iran, the pattern is the same: precision weapons, chosen blindness, and dead children. The cost of failing to regulate AI warfare is already too high

Suchman's excellent keynote zooms in into modern warfare & the role of AI in the Gaza genocide #FAccT2026 "The most consequential decision are made by systems that cannot explain themselves, supplied by companies that answer to no-one, in conflicts that generate no accountability and no reckoning"
