"yeah i just ask chatgpt and-" cool i no longer take you seriously as a person
These "we have made an AI so powerful" warnings are straight-up advertisements, btw. No different than "we have made an Oreo so delicious all other snack artists must relent."

Israel is giving Trump's former campaign manager millions of dollars to fill the internet with pro-Israel articles written by AI, not so that anyone will actually read them, but so that *LLMs will train on them* & regurgitate their perspective. This is the future of the information environment.
Israel Is Paying Millions to Train AI Chatbots How to Talk About Gaza. It's Working.
Former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale is overseeing an operation posting hundreds of blog posts on behalf of Israel, with the goal of infiltrating artificial intelligence.

Where is the university ethics committee that has stepped up to the plate and said "There's no ethical way to use Generative AI"?
If you run a list of passwords against a login, the list is not a dangerous hacker If you run a list of exploits against a site, that list is also not a hacker If you automate which exploits get used based on the type of site, have you made something dangerous? Sure, but not bc it's self aware
Timnit Gebru@timnitgebru.blacksky.app · 2w agoA company trains a system to run exploits, does an exploit "test" without guardrails, and monitoring, and markets their unsafe practices as “model capabilities” when their models RUN EXPLOITS and the politicians supposed to hold them into account parrot their marketing. Make it make sense.
People who choose AI as their creative output: - hate people and having to work with them - are all hat and no cattle, which is to say, they have "ideas" but don't want to even learn the work to implement them - hate the craft itself, and care only about content, about product, about "end results"
Reading AI-news is quite upsetting if you try to square it with observed realities of what people are actually achieving (not much). This piece assures us that we are not wrong. The world of business is no longer able to to talk about AI coherently: ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/ai-mani...

De woningnood is nog steeds niet opgelost, het klimaatprobleem is groter dan ooit. Er zijn 100.000 wachtplekken bij de GGZ. De vermogenskloof is gigantisch. Veel kinderen kunnen niet, of alleen met honger, naar school. Maar gelukkig gaan we dankzij de VVD extra streng kijken naar onnodig toeteren!
‘Waar ligt je loyaliteit?’ De vraag moet zijn waar de ‘loyaliteit’ van de racisten ligt. Smerig.
De beslissing dat we AI nodig hebben, is genomen door de bedrijven die AI verkopen. Alleen dat simpele gegeven zou ons allemaal tot AI-scepticus moeten maken, maar dat gebeurt niet omdat onze biologische voorkeur voor gemak en de kortste route ons in de weg zit. www.volkskrant.nl/columns-van-...
AI is geen handig nieuw instrument, maar een techniek die mensen in economische zin overbodig maakt

The heatwave in Europe is so extreme, it's 25–32°F (14–18°C) above normal. You read that right. France recorded it's hottest day ever. The UK had its hottest ever June day. The ground is exceeding 122°F (50°C). People are dying. Tell me again why we shouldn't talk about climate change???
Remember when the US dropped a bomb on an Iranian school, and then, once rescue workers & parents showed up to try to sift through the rubble, dropped another bomb, ultimately killing 175 innocent people?
a little on the nose for capitalism that the world’s first trillionaire is a nazi conman
The girls’ school in Iran, where 165 people were killed by an apparent US-Israeli attack, was hit with two strikes, with the second missile killing sheltering survivors, two first responders and the parent of a slain child have told Middle East Eye.
Exclusive: Iranian girls killed by ‘double-tap’ strikes on Minab school
Eyewitnesses describe second blast which killed survivors as they sheltered in prayer hall

it’s mad to me how big tech and AI companies dumps their trash into the world and it is up to everyone else (academics, civil society, educators, regulators, etc) to deal with it…. to assess the merit/usefulness, clean up their mess, and come up with alternatives
Een Palestijnse man is op de dag van zijn bruiloft vermoord in zijn tent in Gaza. Op de plek des onheils vonden omstanders zijn pak en een bosje rozen.
My crankiest old man take is that referring to all art/entertainment/journalism/criticism/comedy/advertising as “content” helped pave the way for broad-ish acceptance of AI slop.
One day we need to have a real conversation about business guys’ actual connection to reality! It’s very strange to read this. It’s totally unmoored, supported by mythology. The AI bubble is the great dunce mask off moment. An epoch of chaos will follow!
Mark Cuban@mcuban.bsky.social · 2mo agoThis will make some folks mad :). The best way for these grocery stores to work is if they use AI to get an edge over private grocery stores. AI is the one way for the state government to out perform private enterprises.

Sorry but this is just incredible. They suckered so many people. Bunch of idiots falling for a painted on tunnel like in a Wile E. Coyote cartoon. Remember this when those same brainiacs who are getting took by AI try to tell you data centers are fine. They will fall for anything.
Pavel@spavel.bsky.social · 2mo agoIt's been fascinating to follow AI industry's journey from "it's smarter than your experts!" to "at least it's cheaper than a human" to "your annual token budget ran out in March"
In its current form, what is called AI – again, not reducible machine learning technologies – is a product of platform capitalism, and its large-scale implementation is used to solidify dominant and increasingly monopolistic power and property relations. Of course, this has to be rejected 5/

Why A.I. Isn’t Going to Make Art
To create a novel or a painting, an artist makes choices that are fundamentally alien to artificial intelligence.

De agroindustrie heeft decennialang dikke winsten gemaakt over de rug van dieren, natuur en normale boeren. Burgers mogen opdraaien voor de kosten. Onverteerbaar! Laat vervoerbedrijven, slachthuizen, stallenbouwers en banken betalen voor de schade die ze aanrichtten. Ze hebben méér dan geld genoeg
Johan Vollenbroek@stichtingmobilisation.nl · 3mo agoHier worden de grote winsten geboekt, terwijl naar buiten toe de schijn van de idylle van het platteland wordt hooggehouden. Dit soort bedrijven heeft letterlijk schijt aan klimaatverandering en verlies van biodiversiteit
In iedere coalition offert D66 social-culturele progressiviteit op voor neoliberalisme — dat is alleen steeds weer een verrassing voor progressieve D66 kiezers. Maar dit is zelfs voor D66 een nieuw dieptepunt. Waar zijn Jetten & Co. nog eigenlijk mee bezig?
"In the same way it's impossible to read a human mind, it's hard to know what an AI is thinking" IT'S NOT THINKING. "It takes an AI's internal thoughts" IT'S NOT THINKING. "Just like you and me Claude doesn't say everything it's thinking" IT'S NOT THINKING. Pure 💩 get serious.
