If you self-host and run PHP on it (which is very likely) you NEED to update it later today, ASAP. A major vulnerability that affects PHP versions since 5 has been found, which allows remote code execution (very bad). You MUST retweet and share with friends who self-host. THIS IS CRITICAL. ⚠️

I've seen people say not to use the free Adobe alternatives springing up because they're "vibe coded." I promise you engineers at Adobe are using AI too! Embrace the fact that this shift in power dynamics means you can reduce your reliance on highly extractive companies!

If you're anti-AI, do you think it's a good thing that monopolists are capturing AI technology l, restricting it via regulation, and banning open source and free models? In a choice between proliferation or servitude, I choose proliferation.

Cartoon wolves used to be horny for human women. But now human women are horny for cartoon wolves. The reason? Woke.

if you have 100,000 followers on bluesky, you need to understand that quote dunking a small account that didn’t do anything to you (especially when it’s a trans person) is effectively like controlling the eye of sauron and causing your horde of minions to chase after whatever you point it at

I see people putting AI in the same bucket as NFTs (speculative technology that will go away when the bubble pops), but I think the internet is the better comp. Sure there's some early bubble-y activity, but the underlying technology is real it's going to dramatically change things.

I keep expecting AI progress to plateau, but with the opus 5.5 release it seems clear that is not happening.

Increasingly concerned re: people offloading vital cognitive processes by using GIF replies. Expressing snark with words is a core part of being human, don't let some GIF picker widget a startup preloaded with clips of mid range TV shows take that from you!

realizing i never posted it here….but too long have we been limited by the 2-dimensional political alignment chart. i think by using my new tool we can truly map another person's politics. here it is: The Ideology Cube

The Chad “AI is morally bad because it works” vs the Virgin “increasingly desperate and sweaty special pleading for why it doesn’t *actually* work”

ice cold take: i feel like a lot of p(doom) scare is thinly veiled p(capitalism is unsustainable) not saying the risks aren't real; just that a lot of the time you look under the mask and it's "we could be forced to cut profit margins 😱 invest in infrastructure 😱 redistribute wealth 😱"

a lot of our culture is misanthropic in the wrong direction; where instead of being vexed and disappointed by the unrealized potential of humanity, people believe that the potential isn't there. in a paradoxical sense this turns out to be a lesser condemnation: it lets humans off the hook

Australian claims we need to destroy fair use like they arent one vote away from being required a pap smear of their anus every time they want to post on the internet

Australia had an interesting example of queer art being used transformatively (in the legal sense) to create homophobic political content. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to say that consent should be obtained before using the creations of others.

i am very sick and tired of people bringing up "consent" as a reason for why transformative works should be disallowed. yes even when the transformative works involve lots of complicated machine statistics. firstly; consent is for sex and risky activities, not "am i allowed to use bits of your work"

The ag lobby really, really, really, really, really, really, really wants you to think AI is the reason reservoirs are going empty. It's not. It's agriculture.

We have data on this. The blue is all the non-ag human use:

Fun fact, those gigantic protests that leftists on here loved over in France? Yeah, that was all the farmers getting *super* mad about some *basic* regulations surrounding how they manage toxic runoff. Yeah, the ag lobby *really* wants you to think they're the good guys.

Okay using my monthly allowance of one quote dunk on this. This is vibes-based jurisprudence that puts the Candyland fantasy of what position OP feels authors oughta hold in society over the reality that the law is a blunt instrument, and IP is used mostly to bludgeon artists into poverty.

i still just really feel like AI stuff is basically illegal. like I don't think a good faith interpretation of "fair use" entails vacuuming up everyone's intellectual property to build your chat bot. that sounds wrong to me
