Many say this leaves no path to redemption; I will note that paths to redemption exist, but they are for the offender to walk, not for others to deem it walked on their behalf. And a Nazi isn't walking a path of redemption if they remain in the Nazi party. Nothing stopping them. Path open.

When a person is accused of being a kiddie diddler, they can never recover socially. They wear that stigma like the Mark of Cain for the rest of their lives. Working with, supporting or even using AI needs to come with the same sort of penalty.

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.

I remember a lot of those conspiracy theories, and believed some of them, too. I grew up on the East End, crawling through every bush, shrub and tree, and we never saw Deer Ticks until 1984. So all the conspiracy theories suddenly had fertile ground in which to sprout and grow.

RFK told Dana Bash that Lyme disease “almost certainly” came from gain of function research. Which is utterly false. www.medpagetoday.com/infectiousdi...

It continues. The concept of a global axis forming around tech fascism is one of the most important things I have to say and have been tracking for many years now. The Israel / El Salvador / Saudi Arabia / Argentina / Silicon Valley VC collab is going crazy. www.vcinfodocs.com/the-tech-fas...

Amnesty's capitulation is unacceptable, because a human rights NGO is not simply a discount think tank (viz. a double discounted research university). It's part of its job description to specifically leverage its resources to stand its ground against actual and threatened SLAPPs from bad actors!

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

AI moratorium is the nice option. Not the best? Not the correct? Just the nicest. We can get to the correct one a little later. Y'know, to give people time to girdle their loins and whatnot.

Hey, friends! I put my big face in a video like the kids do! Time to join the @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social and tell @mayor.nyc.gov to enact a moratorium on "A.i." in the schools! Please share - and please tell the mayor you want a moratorium! www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...
