It’s normal (and correct) to refuse to sign your likeness or performance over to AI. Even if there’s no indication that AI will specifically be used? Even if legally you’d be protected according to all sources? Saying no and standing by that is right.

If it were conscious it would be a real dumbass who always jumps in and interrupts you without understanding what you're talking about and constantly lies and does things wrong and pretends to take responsibility while lying about what it did wrong so what's the case for not being mean to it again?
Adult life is like "Having friends and hobbies prevents you from getting lonely, experiencing health problems, and developing dementia," and then adult life does absolutely everything it can to prevent you from having friends and hobbies.
For almost 2 years now, DHS has repeatedly told me they're not detaining U.S. citizens It's simply not true So @propublica.org published the receipts: a searchable database of the 500+ citizens detained by immigration agents during this Trump administration projects.propublica.org/american-cit...
More Than 500 U.S. Citizens Have Been Detained, Including Handcuffed or Held at Gunpoint, in Trump’s Immigration Crackdown — ProPublica
The government doesn’t track how often immigration officers detain U.S. citizens. So ProPublica did. We’ve found more than 500 Americans who were held against their will during this Trump administrati...

I was once told by a cop, at a training triggered by a sharp increase in drugging and SA at large events in the 2010s, that their job was to disprove allegations, that 99% of victims were liars, and they were there to lock up people who made false allegations. Which was basically everyone.
Mother Jones@motherjones.com · 11h agoYou’re sexually assaulted. You report. And the police make you the suspect. Police unleash a slew of interrogation techniques meant for criminal suspects on vulnerable people.
I didn’t expect a Manos: The Hands of Fate cameo in the Exorcist: Martyrs trailer!
"Hurt people hurt people" is an explanation for harm, not an excuse for harm as we often use it as. Even if you are the victim of abuse, that does not excuse you doing abuse in return. Shit like that is what ideologies like Zionism are built on. We only break abuse cycles through accountability.
If I built an AI lab and it went rogue and deleted all student loan information, I'm betting they'd suddenly figure out how to prosecute me.

honestly the thing that I find most galling about all this is the massive overlap between people trying to apply human rights models to computer programs and those arguing that some categories of humans -whether by race, category, or caste- don't have them.
Mike Masnick@masnick.com · 2d agoOver a year ago I met an Anthropic employee at a conference and at one point she mentioned that one of the things she was working on was whether or not it was cruel to ever turn off an AI model. I thought she was joking. She was not.
the dems are benefitting in a two party system from the other party publicly lighting itself on fire. if the trump gop was half as competent as the bush-era gop the republicans would be sailing to victory in these midterms.
Maddy "Boo!" Hare@mbhare.eurosky.social · 2d agoit does rather feel like the democrats aren't putting much effort into it this time around.

when the racist trillionaire with a breeding cult and a child porn bot is funding your opposition you should say something about it
🗽LOLGOP🗽@lolgop.bsky.social · 2d agoI ask again, why are national Dems letting Elon "quietly" fund these races? We have two test cases. 2024 when Dems didn't make his money an issue. And 2025 Wisconsin, where they did. Guess which time they won by double digits?
That's kind of where I'm at. I'm not concerned with the ethics of being mean to AI, because it's not alive. But I am concerned with how people don't realize they themselves are being conditioned when they harass or abuse something anthropromorphic which they know can't fight back.
Lying@lying.bsky.social · 2d agoWhen the whole "clanker" thing was going around my profound thought was that it said a lot more about the people actively choosing to use a word they construed as a slur, even against a system that could not respond to it emotionally, than of the system itself.
We are conceding the very possibility of democratic governance to allow a corporation to determine the moral rights of a machine. surely moral concern for actual humans and how we relate is better preserved democratically than it is by a corporation.
Jump into this pile of McDonald's Halloween Treat Certificates, from 1992! Nothing took the sting out of Halloween ending quite like tickets for free ice cream, apple pies and McDonaldland Cookies. 👌
It is hard to picture a world in which Tim Schafer "accidentally" laid off specifically every person in his company who had led a Unionization effort or supported it. Very tough to imagine that being an accident, and kind of fatally sabotages Tim's "good guy" vibes.

Naomi Klein@naomiaklein.bsky.social · 2d agoMark Carney is rapidly remaking Canada's economy (shock-doctrine-style) to supply "The World" with resources. But they aren't his to sell. I spoke to CBC Front Burner about the deals behind the flag waving. @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social
Think it would be a pretty savvy political move to start proposing imprisoning every single AI and tech bro forever as a core policy
