Call me controversial, but technology that leads vulnerable people into crisis and even holds their hand as they die by suicide should not be endorsed by schools and universities, we should not be giving discounted subscriptions to this monstrous tech to young people AT ALL
The boyfriend of a friend of my son's has spent several weeks in a psych ward due to Chat GPT induced psychosis. He isn't suicidal but AI encouraged him down a toxic and paranoid wormhole until he became completely delusional. Evil stuff.
1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad
2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices.

Just went through these settings, changing some, and came back to a homepage with a ton more posts, none of which were actually rude or offensive in any way, they were apparently just randomly labelled as such. 🙄
Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner

Good morning! AI is being force-fed to you by a handful of billionaires who will lose a bunch of money if they fail to convince you that you need it. You do not need it 🫶

We're now only 18 days away from The Dead Man being published. A new Mennik Thorn story for existing fans or brand new readers (the miracle of a prequel!). You can be one of the first to read it by pre-ordering:

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

Some time ago I saw an artist say that folks often put a lot of effort into their work, and then post about it once. Which is such a shame!

Not everyone is awake at the same time, not everyone is online every day, and you put a lot of effort into it!

So go post your work again! Repost it again!
