This seems like a maliciously put headline to make people feel a certain way.

Wikipedia is not partaking in generative AI. They are making AI companies and scrappers having to pay for training their modules off wikipedia texts. And having an AI (not that ai) tasked with updating dead links.

New potential means of checking for AI. Take a picture and increase the contrast/ saturation. If you see artifacting anywhere, that's potentially (but not necessarily) AI. Overlap it with other telltale signs to be sure.

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.

Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.

seeing ANOTHER post of an uncredited/unsourced screenshot of a chat log going around saying pp will ban you for saying commission. it's just not fuckin true. my invoices have been titled "freelance commission" with the subheader "digital goods" for FIFTEEN YEARS.

once again prefacing a rant with "not siding with paypal because fuck them" but i cannot stress enough that the word "commission" being used is not enough to get your account terminated. "commission" is a very normal business/financial term. it'd be like terminating farmers for saying "tractor".

I know I'm not very active and would like to change that but...not today.

Today I had to put my dog Lola down and it's kind of broken me for awhile so please forgive me if it takes me some time to come to terms with my families loss.

Thank you

Another bill aimed at repealing section 230 has been introduced, this time in the senate

Please continue to advocate for protecting Sec 230 to your reps. We dont know how much support these bills will get yet, but they are obviously trying to push this issue

I know several pieces of recent news make the outlook of the future look bleak, but please remember two things:

1) you can only flush trillions down the toilet with nominal returns for so long

2) the future they claim to be rock-solid is still very much made of thin glass

Keep making art.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about
screenshot of a post on facebook from Alex Lamoreaux, depicting two versions of the "same" photograph of a bobcat in front of a pine plantation, one labeled original game cam photo, one labeling AI processed the markings have been altered on the AI photo, and the head changed and resized text says: Oh! A neat goose hybrid posted to ‘What’s this Bird?’ but when you zoom in on the photos the bill details have been too manipulated by AI photo editing to be accurately assessed for which species may be involved. Scroll on… A cool-looking Red-tailed Hawk that someone is wondering which subspecies it might be - right up my alley! But when you zoom in on the photos literally every feather group has been so heavily manipulated and altered by AI editing that it’s impossible to determine subspecies because the photo is essentially fake now; just a mashup of whatever AI thinks parts of a Red-tail should look like. Scroll on… WOW! That’s a remarkable trail cam photo of a Bobcat! It almost looks like a painting!… but the head looks oddly small…. hmmmm. After some prodding the original photo is produced and sure enough it had been so heavily altered by AI ‘post processing’ that the photo posted was essentially a digital mock-up with totally different proportions and fur markings. No longer the photo off the trail cam; it may as well have just been ‘created’ by AI from scratch. This stuff is killing me. My days on social media are becoming very limited. We can’t even trust simple, everyday photos of animals to be real. The wildlife community needs to quit editing with AI, and we need to start calling out photographers that are using it. Our reality is being destroyed all around us.
