Cool to know that the people not giving me my book royalties are bang into AI. That shit really is the One Ring for the corporate mind innit. The idea of not having to pay someone to do something is absolutely irresistible.

Deutsche fragen sich weiterhin, von was für Quellen wir denn Israel als das Problem sehen. Und ignorieren, wie Israel selbst die Quelle dafür ist. Wiederholt. Unverwechselbar. Eindeutig. Israel will (und wollte schon seit Gründung) diesen Genozid. Und dieses Land besitzen.

Greta Thunberg on why it’s essential for climate activists to speak out on Gaza: "The reason I am a climate activist is not because I want to protect trees. I'm a climate activist because I care about human, planetary well-being and those are extremely interlinked."

The IDF is using an algorithm it knows is inaccurate to label populated areas of Gaza as unpopulated to then bomb them. They’ve killed hundreds in recent weeks alone as a result. www.972mag.com/israel-gaza-...

Oh my GOD. According to The Information, Microsoft is projected to only make $3bn of revenue from AI sales outside of OpenAI's revenue share and the massive amount they spend to run their services on Microsoft's Azure Cloud. $13bn total revenue from AI is bad - $3bn is REALLY bad.

It's so, so scary and so sad to watch this all unfold. Meanwhile the push to use it, and even accidentally use it as it gets embedded into everything is relentlessly continuing. What a horrible time to be in.

The harm of AI is hitting me profoundly tonight, as OUP announces it will be using AI to summarize/check academic articles. It's b/c I've just taught a class where we looked at how ideas, language & culture around an issue changed over time through the gradual & uneven exchange of human ideas. 1/3

I arrived at peak 'what's wrong with charging?'. Needed to install a charging app that is country locked. Needed to set up multi user on my phone, create a new account, log in on my pc to send the app from there to my phone as the phone still was Region locked as device. But I won. I'm charging!

“Some of the deep-water corals can live for 2,000 years or more... This is something that we’re going to be judged for generations from now.” I hope so! Otherwise environmental destruction stays the norm through our existence.

Germany not pulling its weight in EU effort to cut emissions. Germany’s failure to rein in emissions from cars and heating could threaten the EU’s climate goals – and raise costs for the rest of the bloc. http://dlvr.it/TL82kk

Hey @bsky.app it would be nice if translations would work in your app. Clicking the translate button opens an empty translation app with no text in it. And selecting text in a post to manually translate doesn't work either since like a month.
