I'm going to start using "digital asbestos" as a term of art.
I'm going to be honest here, I think AI is going to do so much damage to the usable internet that even after it's inevitably crashes out, it's going to take years to disentangle from every space it's polluted, like digital asbestos it's gonna be time consuming effort and likely expensive venture.
I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but...
the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

Actually had a good YYZ airport disability experience today. Apparently they have a new program of facilitators who offer assistance to people wearing sunflower lanyards. Much better than when a CATSA agent yelled at me because I was so overstimulated I couldn’t tell he was trying to talk to me.

I learned one of my favourite nature facts the other day: DYK chickadees’ little brains grow bigger in fall/winter to help them find their thousands of cached seeds? *laughs in envious neurodivergent* 🪶

New birder here, based in Vancouver, BC. It started with trying to befriend some neighbourhood crows and now I have so many little #birds that come to my yard! Chickadees, finches, dark eyed juncos, sparrows, steller’s jays, red-breasted nuthatches, northern flickers & Anna’s hummingbirds!
