Damn I passed this last Saturday with @lizduckchong.bsky.social as we walked along the river from Parra to Rydalmere Ferry and back. I didn't stop to read the words as I was having such a lovely time.

Hey, remember when we as a society rejected 3D TVs? Google Stadia? NFTs? And the corporations got the hint and stopped trying to sell them to us? Can we do the same with ChatGPT and Midjourney and all this other genAI shit?

ai video isn't a silly tool, it's not something that's going to make your life easier, and increasingly it doesn't seem to be a fad it's sinister shit being propped up by massive tech companies with a vested interest in manipulating visual and viral reality. there are no benign use cases for it.

Global average temperatures are spiking, rising faster than climate models seem able to explain, and in a sane world, every country would be united in a full-scale effort to figure this out & respond. Instead the US is dismantling its scientific infrastructure.

It's a very minor gripe, and they seem to have improved it a lot from the first episode, but Dropout's new Parlor Room is a heap of fun and well edited and the lighting just feels way too harsh. I wish it was warmer and felt less intensely top lit.

My kingdom for trans men with deep voices and facial hair to stop making posts that smugly say “oh so I guess you want Me in the women’s bathroom, checkmate” for the love of god.

I think I'm definitely done with EDI talks that refer to "people that identify as men/women" instead of just saying "men and women", the underlying implication that "identify as women" that some of those people might not actually be women is just not something I'm willing to accept anymore.

Looking for a pair of shoes this morning and found that the back of several pieces of furniture are completely covered in mould. Small apartment, dehydrator running almost 24/7 for months, cleaned everything twice over summer. Fuck this shit sucks.

Sure, AI may be an environmental disaster and produce mid outcomes in cases where it doesn't straight up lie, but at least it's extremely unprofitable.

I know we're all talking about google results going to shit in the past few years but has anyone else seen a marked and rapid decline on their youtube recs? I feel like I get shown the same 12 videos over and over for a whole week, and then another 12 the next week – none of which I want to watch.

Run a local festival or event? Stop using AI for your promo images and posters: 1. It makes your event look like a scam 2. vendors can tell, many will skip your event for using AI 3. It makes it look like you don't care about your event
