AI lives and dies by its training data. Many of the leading LLMs have already scanned the entire internet and are still hungry for more. Meta’s patented system would give it unprecedented access to the movements, moods, and interactions of its users.

Imagine a wearable device that records every moment of your day and makes suggestions based on your mood.

Anthony Moser@anthonymoser.com · 4mo agoTonight in the ai reading group i was reminded of something that happened in 2006 after I dropped out of college, when I was living in a run-down old house next to jb alberto's in rogers park with a bunch of dudes. it was, as you can imagine, not clean.
Did you know that GeoAI can discover your location based on images you share on social media? Even if you have location turned off? Most people don't. #schoollibrarians #AIinEDU #edtech #TLsky #EduSky @aaslala.bsky.social ticklingtech.com/2026/07/06/a...
AI Can Find You Via YOUR Images
You can control your location information inside various apps, if you choose, by turning off the location. The default is always sharing location. Sometimes, it helps to have the location turned on…

Oh no. No no no no. GenAI is absolutely NOT about access to information. It is about despoiling our information ecosystem. And the text extruded from chatbots is absolutely NOT expression, since no one is expressing themselves there.
Tech Policy Press@techpolicypress.bsky.social · last mo.AI systems are "at their core, a technology of expression and access to information,” writes Isabelle Anzabi. How governments govern the technology will shape what people can say, seek, and know—and the UN Global Dialogue on AI Governance in Geneva is where Anzabi says the world can get that right.
“Should shopkeepers have to opt out of shoplifters? Should victims of violence have to opt out of attacks? Should those who use the internet for banking have to opt out of fraud? I struggle to think of another situation where someone protected by law must proactively wrap it around themselves…”

I knew graphic novels and nonfiction were the top circulating collections. The numbers show just how close. I take a close look at trends and make notes now so as I let things marinate over the summer, I can make decisions accordingly. #TLSky #SchoolLibraries
A phenomenon I've noticed recently is people trying to occupy some untenable middleground wrt to the use of systems sold as "AI" -- this is a position where people try to recognize the harms of this tech but also hold space for "responsible" or "ethical" use. 🧵>>
Is there such a thing as "responsible use of generative ai" in any area or application?
Dr Abeba Birhane@abeba.blacksky.app · last mo.there is no such thing as "responsible use of generative ai" in research
No, technology is not neutral, and calling AI and other technological contrivances “tools” obscures proper understanding of their role & impact. I encourage everyone to read @lmsacasas.bsky.social. Not just this, but everything he writes…but also THIS!
