Newsom is terrible in multiple ways, but for people in my (vaguely hand waving) arts and entertainment industry - this particular shitty position will ensure that it's even more difficult to make a living in this world. And it will explicitly empower fascists. So into the trash with this one!
868-BACK may have ruined me for all other games (for the feds, this is a statement by a fictional character in a video game)

Update: Google just sent me a statement saying it is “rolling back” this AI feature that let anyone make completely bullshit satellite images. Comes after our demos of the tool and those from OSINT researchers. One of the worst AI tools I’ve ever seen bsky.app/profile/jose...
New from 404 Media: Google Earth has introduced an AI feature that lets anyone fabricate completely bullshit satellite images. In our own tests, we added a “bomb blast and crater” to an area of Los Angeles. This is a misinformation time bomb, will 100% be abused www.404media.co/google-earth...
