I considered writing a long carefully constructed argument laying out the harms and limitations of AI, but instead I wrote about being a hater. Only humans can be haters.
I Am An AI Hater
I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

The goal of AI images is not to convince you they’re real, but to put you in a mental space where you start to doubt the veracity of everything you see - where nothing is sincere and everything is trolling. This is why they serve fascist ends so effectively.

I enjoyed this idea that authoritarian states are more like the movie Brazil than the book 1984 - because authoritarianism breeds incompetence.

Dear friend,
Mr. Trump's coronation last week was a disgrace. As I bowed in protest, I thought to myself "What has become of our nation"
Now it's all up to us. Can you spare $5, $10, or even $20 so I can attend the royal feast to continue the fight?
