So when thousands of women (and children) were being duplicated--including in non-consensual AI porn--it was no big deal. But it took "only a 15-sec clip" of these two famous white men to draw outrage and fear. Gotcha. Cool cool.
It took only a 15-second clip of Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt duking it out on a crumbling rooftop — made by A.I. with a two-sentence prompt and the click of a button — to draw swift outrage, and sizable fear, from Hollywood.

"It’s nothing short of terrifying," one scriptwriter said.
Why an A.I. Video of Tom Cruise Battling Brad Pitt Spooked Hollywood
A 15-second clip created by an artificial intelligence tool owned by the Chinese technology company ByteDance appears more cinematic than anything so far.

A year later Weev would play a key role in professionalizing the trolls who played a key role in getting Trump elected.
A strange find from the Epstein files:

A hacker named Vincenzo Iozzo shares with Epstein a rumor that Peter Thiel was "bankrolling" the neo-Nazi white supremacist hacker troll known as "weev."

Conversation is about financial strategies and "currencies."

UPDATE: “FBI formally notified Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) on it will not provide the BCA with access to any information or evidence that it has collected in the 1/24 shooting death of Alex Pretti.”

🤔A lawless regime. Abolish ICE.

Under Massachusetts Governor Healey, the Bay State has led the nation with at least 2 triumphant "firsts": the first and only state to make an official contract with ICE, and the first state to incorporate the use of AI into state government.
#Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey, who is up for reelection this year, will forcefully criticize ICE and the Trump administration—what she won't do is stop working with them.

My latest for @lukeoneil47.bsky.social's Hell World.

We stand with our brothers and sisters in @slcp.bsky.social.

When people’s identities get called “not match relevant,” we speak up.

Trans Pride and Black Lives Matter belong in the stands because our people belong in the stands.

Inclusion isn’t a theme night. @stlcitysc.com, do better.

We stand with the Punks and Riot Grrrls and the trans community!

We'll never waiver in our support for trans inclusion and extend the hands of friendship to those who do as well.

We are glad to see these folks point out the rank hypocrisy in featuring some identities but not others on game day!

Have we not eaten while another starved? Will you punish us for that? Will you reward us for the virtue of starving while others ate? No man earns punishment, no man earns reward. Free your mind of the idea of deserving, the idea of earning, and you will begin to be able to think

One of my fav “blaming young people for the economy” things was when I had a math teacher in school that calculated the difference in price between a McDonalds quarter pounder with cheese and one without cheese and how much you could save if that was what you ate for 20 years and it wasn’t that much
