My buddy Theo is undergoing gender affirming surgery very soon, and since their recovery will keep them out of commission for a few months (and therefore unable to do their job as a mail carrier), please consider giving few dollars to give to help support a good friend and reliable civil servant 🫡

These findings confirm studies on chatbots and the recent US presidential election that my lab conducted with @proofnews.bsky.social apnews.com/article/ai-c...
Chatbots' inaccurate, misleading responses about US elections threaten to keep voters from polls
Chatbots are spitting out fabricated and misleading information that risks disenfranchising voters leading up to the 2024 U.S. election.

Juliet E McKenna@julietemckenna.bsky.social · 4mo ago"ChatGPT, the most heavily used AI service, gave wrong information in 46% of its answers, including making up an expenses scandal, giving inaccurate replies on voter eligibility rules and getting the date of the election wrong by two months." www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
Here is a strange call: we look for a gamedev producer! Imagine we are opening a publishing house soon. Imagine we love thoughtful narrative games, games with mysteries and novel experiences. And imagine we're looking for a producer who would love to work with these kind of games. Maybe it's you?⤵️
🗣️ We wanna HEAR YOU!

This kind of foolishness is why every single option for re-use is turned off on my YT channel. JFC… this is the epitome of doing too much; and nobody asked for this.
Neilly from the Leftist Cooks (She/Her)@neillyleftistcook.bsky.social · 4mo ago"In YouTube Shorts, a new “Remix” option will let users write a prompt to remix a creator’s video by changing its style or even adding themselves into the video, without changing the basic context of the video." Only fascists will use this feature and only fascists will enjoy watching.

Dia Lacina@dialacina.com · 4mo agoOk, embargo's up! I have no idea when my review will be out, but until that time, please understand: ZERO PARADES fucking rules.
According to reviews Zero Parades is ostensibly about bootlegging; the copying and dissemination of culturally significant trends and the parasitic effect this has on *other* cultures and consumers... Man that's smart as all hell given the context it was made in.
