NEW: Pinterest is engulfed in AI slop, which is crowding top search results and sending users to unhelpful AI spam sites created to cash in on ads. Pinterest users are frustrated. The AI-happy SEO spammers fueling the slopageddon, meanwhile, say they're raking in cash. futurism.com/pinterest-ai...

New from me! This article dives into a sketchy non-profit (so they claim) that Clothoff is supposedly donating money to. Lots of dodging of questions, and no evidence to suggest that they exist beyond a website.

Very happy to share that my painting "Collector of Kings Long Past" made it into Infected By Art 13! 🎉 (And now is as good a time as any to remind folks that the framed original is still available: everydayoriginal.com/product/the-... )

I’m seeing a lot of soft takes from industry mutuals at the moment that we shouldn’t be so hard on those who use generative AI because it’s becoming harder and harder to resist. Wrong. Betraying your ethics (and your peers) because ‘everyone else is doing it’ does not suddenly make it acceptable.

Your annual reminder that Intuit/TurboTax have spent 20 years using their lobbying power to prevent the federal government from offering you free and functional electronic tax filing. DirectFile finally delivers that, but they haven't stopped trying to kill it. www.opensecrets.org/news/2024/02...

NEW INVESTIGATION: Israeli forces repeatedly attacked Gaza’s main port in the week following 7 Oct 2023. By Jan 2024, after months of continued attacks, all docked vessels had been rendered non-operational, devastating Gaza’s fishing industry and increasing Palestinian dependence on foreign aid.

This is insane. Again, USAID is the largest provider of food assistance in the world. These boys playing with systems and lives they don’t understand and don’t care to understand will produce a body count of already-suffering people far from Washington

Seeing Maryland and Virginia congressional delegations respond to Musk's illegal seizure of power as a crisis is heartening, and further underscores that DC statehood is vital to protect functioning democracy from those who would destroy it. Beyond overdue.

GenAI has polluted image search results, especially for animal pics. It’s now basically impossible to find accurate art references. Enter this: a repository of open-access, AI-free images of wild & exotic taxa. Artists creating without AI have blanket permission for derivative/transformative use.
