We're deep into one of the most interesting scientific international exchanges possible and @microsoft.com Team's #AI bot interrupted us to recommend we "end the meeting". Its only criterion was time Worse, it wouldn't allow the host to close the pop up #paternalism #AItrash
🥁 New paper is out: “The case for globally beneficial technology”. Iason Gabriel and I develop five moral arguments in support of the claim that advanced technologies such as AGI should be designed, developed, and distributed in ways that benefit everyone. Full paper: arxiv.org/pdf/2607.03906
"I was late learning about science … For much of my scientific training I feared I was behind my peers. But I have been able to close the gap—and that is something to be proud of." #NationalHigherEducationDay Read more: https://scim.ag/3RLitnz

These are actual Freedom Riders, now elderly, sitting together decades after risking their lives to challenge segregation in the American South. On May 4, 1961, they rode buses south to defy illegal segregation in terminal facilities.
There will never be a short supply of self-aggrandizing, me vs them, "experts" making up performative acts, desperate to tell you how you should be experiencing your life. (which is always always always predicted on their observation that whatever you're doing is wrong) #HealthAndWellness

Alt: a cat is laying on its back in a pile of plastic bags staring into the void contemplating how little the world makes sense anymore and too mystified to be angry just yet at the family members who told her that college degrees and a job would set her free, with the words "grocery plans denied" in large white letters, because white people ruin everything, amirite?

✨Western culture challenge✨ Stop calling things a "brave new world". If you read even the first chapter you would recede into your nearest sphincter with such speed that only the heady bouquet of embarassment and cringe would be left in your wake. #gammas #alphas #booksky #AldousHuxley #castes 💙📚

Instead of calling them "developing" or "third world" countries, try "historically exploited" or "currently exploited" countries.
ICE agents showed up at airports across the country this morning. Most seemed to have no clear purpose just standing around. Apparently the only goal was to make travelers uneasy with federal agents hovering around.
This is an ICE agent at TSA. Post their unmasked faces everywhere.

"AI systems still perpetuate societal norms and stereotypes and misogyny and racism and harms. But because the 'AI as innovation' or 'AI as societal advancement' narrative has taken over, the other side of the debate or the other side of the argument rarely gets any attention." @abeba.bsky.social

"Habsburg AI" is now a term. AI trained on recursively generated data for so long it leads to model collapse. Being so famous for your dysfunctional choices that cultural evolutions a millenium ahead perfectly adapt your nomenclature. #HabsburgAI #AIslop #FARvisions

An author who has #generativeAI write all the novels she sells to publishers, lies to publishers about AI use, but protects her own product because she fears missing out on grifter profits. "lower your expectations" indeed
Buried in this piece is a throwaway line about how actually her real hustle is selling online courses to aspiring AI hacks, marking an extraordinary symbiosis of my two most hated internet poisons
