No holds barred from @emilymbender.bsky.social and @alexhanna.bsky.social that punctures much of the AI hype, showing just how much it is infected by bias, repugnant ethics and self-dealing, with all-too-tangible harms being trivialised. A timely read 💙📚

When people hear that I'm returning to part time work they often ask "are things not going well with your art?"
The problem really is things are going well, but the world is so unstable that I long for some consistency and income that I don't have to pay quarterly taxes on

Really appreciate this review of our book (w/ @alexhanna.bsky.social)
"By insisting on the term “automation,” Bender and Hanna reveal that what’s sold as innovation is often just labor displacement with better branding."
"…a demystifying, often hilarious lexicon that cuts through the fog of hype."

Using Generative AI is like taking a forklift to the gym but sometimes the forklift tickles the weights or leaks orange juice, makes duck calls

Whenever people find out I’m returning to part time work they seem surprised, but honestly I used to be able to make rent six times over during my Monster Mashtober runs. Now I make enough to maybe cover my health insurance payment for one month. Huge shifts in online spaces and sales

why would ai boost productivity its like giving you a coworker who doesnt understand what facts or objective reality are whose output you are responsible for
Two trials will be repeated endlessly despite always producing the same results:
1) Does UBI work? (yes)
2) Does AI improve productivity? (no)

Something I didn't get to say yesterday:
We heard over and over during the event about "human-centered" approaches to "AI". But if refusal is not on the table (at every level: individual students and teachers right up through UNESCO) then we have in fact centered the technology, not the people.

It has been really interesting to attend UNESCO's Digital Learning Week (though unfortunately I'm not able to stick around). My public lecture from yesterday can be found here:
