Don’t let CEOs quibble over how much they’re pushing for AI. Regurgitative AI is a plagiaristic poison, to use any amount of it is to use it too much.
They want the concessions, because concessions can creep. Zero tolerance is the only way to say no to it.

It can be really hard to confront someone that you care about. We want relationships to continue and confrontation can feel like a threat to that.
But don't write a laundry list. Hand wash your delicates.

I've been victim to this professionally and in relationships. Honestly, in the past I have done it myself. It allows you to gain a feeling of control without actually doing anything.
But also some people are just shitty and enjoy putting others in a lose-lose scenario.

Don't let things fester.
Don't be afraid to ask if a certain social or professional anxiety is justified.
I suppose I am just hashing this out so I can see it in writing for the first time but I would also be interested to hear if this resonates with anyone who reads this wall of text.

None of this excuses genuine misbehaviour, but oftentimes it is something mundane or a "way you talk" that could very easily remedied.
If you are victim to this, you do actually have to plead guilty but it is also vital that you call out the laundry lister too.
Power dynamics are really complex.

I know so many good people who have been victim to this, both personally and professionally. Because they want to be *good* they are devastated to learn that they've been causing upset without knowing it. It can trigger anxiety that lasts an extremely long time. It often ends relationships entirely.

It is done both knowingly and passively. In either case it is vindictive and unfair.
Self awareness is often incongruous and variable. If you do not call out a person's bad actions, and they do not know that they are doing them, then they have no chance to improve their behaviour.

This puts them in an indefensible position. They can only beg forgiveness from the accuser and they have little chance at reconciliation.
It's a big stack of "gotchas" that often cannot actually be denied. In reality the accuser is at fault too for doing nothing.

This often involves gossip and unfair representation of the truth. Resentment builds and builds.
The end result (or "laundry day") is when the victim finally goes too far and crosses an imperceivable threshold. They're told off for The Last Straw and also given a list of wrongs that they've done.

IME neurodivergent people are the most common victims of this.
If you do not address misbehaviour as soon as possible and start letting it stack up, you are culpable for any future repercussions. Instead of "letting it slide" you harbour resentment for the victim of your negligence/passiveness.

There's a particular abusive behaviour enacted by both individuals and organisations that I like to call "laundry listing"
It's when, instead of confronting you when you are perceived to have misbehaved or done something wrong, it is simply "saved for later" so it can all be dumped on you at once.

ok I'm gonna rant about something because I've had the same conversation about it with four different people this last week and it's getting weird

i understand that these corporations are beloved by many, but as soon as you start defending their use of AI, even if it's "a little bit", i need you to understand that you are being used as a corporate tool to normalize AI. reject it with all your might. corporations arent your friend.

"we USE ai, but our game wont CONTAIN it" is a clarification that no one has ever cared about & now CEOs are using it as a wedge to get their foot in the door as a part of a long term plan into normalizing AI, just like how 'it's just placeholder' was used with E33. dont cede even an inch of ground

I don't want to see the magic of humanity gone, but I am very scared that it is because the worst worth deciders made a system that promotes the erasure of such humanity.
It hurts to call out the evils of this world, I get it, but we can't just pretend they don't exist.
We can't normalize inhumanity

Did Cassandra even want to be right about the atrocities' existence in the first place? To say that such cruelties exist in this world? To say that ruinous depravity will be the snowflake that starts the avalanche of downfall? Is she happy to be right about such man-made horrors?

Damn, I can viscerally FEEL Jax's sheer rage and outright hatred for being vindicated for predicting something bad would happen. Having predicted how COVID would play out back when it was still a bud in Wuhan, it's AMAZING to see that feeling of being horrified at your vindication.

I got so stoned at a Mets game once I compared the Jumbotron to the top screen of a Nintendo DS bc it had “a bunch of useful contextual information” and the field to the bottom screen bc “it’s where the game is actually played”
