Daaaamn. “AI is the asbestos we're shovelling into the walls of our technological society. Our descendants will spend generations digging it out again, and the longer the bubble goes on without popping, the longer it will take to repair the damage." www.thenerve.news/p/cory-docto...

Cory Doctorow: The people who tell you ‘AI is changing everything’ are lying

It has become impossible to tell managers mesmerised by artificial intelligence that the tools are not, in fact, helpful. So employees just play along with the fiction to keep their jobs, writes our t...

The business of "A.i." is based on a lack of consent. The corporations pushing it don't ask if anyone wants it; they force it on us. They use it to surveil. They offer it to creeps to create nudes of others without permission. It's a business run by creeps with the ethics of creeps.

"A.i." is a tool of exploitative capitalism, not a leveler or equalizer. Its function is fraud and exploitation, not liberation.

Share a horror movie that begins with the letter “N” 🎥 Night Flier Skipping over a bunch of faves, but this needs the love. A really fun creature feature, but never given an official DVD release. Someone needs to save this from tangled rights and shoddy YouTube uploads. #Filmskuy #Horrorsky

Anyway, your problem isn‘t finding the time to take notes. The problem is that taking notes is thinking and thinking has to be done by someone. women have been doing a lot of metacognition that looks like a task when it’s really thinking.

So a masculinist understanding of notetaking would think a transcription app is the same as taking notes. That’s why they think an AI transcript is a time-saver. They think the notes are the thinking because when a human takes the notes, it is.

this is where I currently stand. this well has been poisoned. I agree that I would like an unpoisoned well, but you can not convince me that I need to drink from the poisoned well just because I agree that water is important.

Is it unfair that everything Harry Potter-related is forever political and you can't just have fun with it anymore? Nope, because being a Harry Potter adult is the most pathetic thing ever and kids deserve better fiction, like Terry Pratchett. So stop trying to keep HP alive. It and Joanne SUCK.

This is the first time I've seen someone with the actual correct interpretation of what is happening here: Sony wants to go full subscriptions service/cloud gaming. They don't want to sell you physical games because they don't want to sell you *games*. They want to sell you a subscription.

Alanah Pearce@alanahpearce.bsky.social · 2w ago

This took me several weeks to make because I went through several years worth of corporate/investor/earnings reports but... here it is! The actual, long-term reason Sony killed physical discs, and why they can't go back. youtu.be/_Znc7MVsSlg?...

There will absolutely be Hell To Pay for this at bedtime, but I’m listening to my child playing a horror game in Roblox (I know, I know) with her friends and it is so adorable. “Victoria, what’s your sanity? …Is that an anomaly?!”

You ever think about how you released an unabashedly queer game about overcoming personal trauma and finding the strength to overthrow the embodiments of the world's ills, gaining a MC in the 80s, and selling reasonably but being more valuable as a cultural and financial scapegoat to appease a demog

I think I speak for many a formerly Obama-Biden-Kamala supporting wine mom when I say, GO ON AND FUCKING SPLIT YOU BASTARDS NO QUARTER THESE TREASONOUS REGIMES WILL GO DOWN AND BE BROUGHT TO THE HAGUE PROTECT TRANS KIDS LOVE IS LOVE AND JAMES CARVILLE CAN GO RIGHT TO HELL

Centrists in Congress (anonymously) threatening to leave this Democratic Party. James Carville calling for a schism. Top Dems refusing to endorse Dem primary winners. Pouty (also anonymous) pro-Israel donors in MI calling for a donor strike—I wrote about the emerging centrist Uncommitted Movement.
