Analysts estimate that 70%+ of Microsoft, Google and Amazon's present and future AI revenues are from Anthropic and OpenAI's compute spend and model sales. Outside of two unsustainable AI labs, demand barely exists, and they've massively overbuilt capacity. www.wheresyoured.at/the-ai-deman...

Does Europe still believe in human rights? In an op-ed in EUObserver, I warn that the undermining of the rights of LGBTI people serves as the tip of the spear in a broader backlash against human rights protection overall. #WorldPride www.coe.int/en/web/commi...

ok come on man not only is the New York Times transphobic it's also very clearly trash and specifically biased toward republicans in several other ways. You're not funding amazing investigations here you're funding the vehicle through which conservative ideas get laundered to the public

Steven Bodzin, concerned living being@stevenbodzin.bsky.social · 5d ago

Those two examples are very different. I pay $15 a month for the NYT. How much am I contributing to the anti-trans cause, and how many amazing investigations am I supporting? Vs paying $300 for a Harry Potter The Musical ticket or $39 for a Dumbledore wand? These are not the same.

Another fake cis ally trying to slap down trans folk expressing our anger against being thrown under the fucking bus. This is the worst part of it, the numbers of people you hoped might have your back just going nope

Barry Parmegiana@jimmylasagne.bsky.social · 5d ago

Slow handclap for those attacking Amnesty rn, you're helping both the govt and the transphobes.

I have concerns about Amnesty at this stage; these organisations are anti-rights. They are engaged in pushing the boundaries of the law, using lawfare and actively disseminating misinfo about trans people, all with the goal of pushing us out of public life. For Amnesty to cave because of threats

Lee Hurley@hleehurley.com · 5d ago

Amnesty have issued an apology to JK Rowling and the rest. Adjust your expectations, and donations, accordingly www.amnesty.org.uk/latest/an-ap...

Amnesty UK have apologised to JK Rowling for rightfully calling out her anti-rights rhetoric. Shame on them. A human rights organisation should not cave to pressure from billionaires, especially those who wish to make supporting human rights a terrorist offence. xoxo BASH BACK

Let’s be clear: what these bastards are doing to these books isn’t digitizing. Digitizing is about preservation and access to the original material. They’re gutting and destroying to make Soylent Green. Don’t let them get away with pretending to do this for humanitarian reasons.

I have to say, the final scenes of Humanity's Grave, are my favourite. It is the existentialism of it all, the staring down the very end of the world, staring down the endless possibilities, and what can come next. It is the culmination of the novel, i will need to check the manuscript.

Share your trans joy so that others know it's possible.

Hannah Who@notablyuncool.bsky.social · 6d ago

Especially now, it’s not trivial to post about trans joy. It’s necessary. Every trans person who shares their joy sends a message of hope to others who may be struggling. And everyone who uplifts those posts helps spread that light, hope and visibility even further.

Anthropic shredding millions of rare books should be a crime. It’s also a perfect encapsulation of what utter shit generative AI is and how it fundamentally makes the world worse.

Got told i was wrong by an AI bro, and it forced me to go and grab my masters thesis just to be able to quote Folsom v Marsh, just to prove my point. This is the point of contention i want to make, if the book is destroyed and the only way to access the information

MJ Quigley@mjqwrites.bsky.social · 7d ago

It is not inaccurate, my masters thesis followed the taxonomy of fair use and its parallels over in europe. Folsom v Marsh, which is the foundation US case on Fair use, made the point that you have to consider the value and nature of the selections made from the work and then, if the resulting work

GenAI defenders are so wierd, they seem obsessed with protecting capitalism but also sit their trying to make anticapitalist arguments as to why Anthropic destroying loads of books is good actually, and calling people luddites for not wanting to use the infinite plagarism machine

It is more important than ever, human creativity is the driver of so many things. To be creative, is to share something of yourself with the world. AI is shit, genAI is an illusion of creativity. A writer leaves a lot of themselves on the table #SummerOfStories #WritingCommunity #WritingPrompt
