DELL EXEC: Consumers are “not buying based on AI. In fact I think AI probably confuses them more than it helps them understand a specific outcome."

Dell seems to be the first to realise we don't actually care about AI PCs
"What we've learned over the course of this year, from a consumer perspective, is they're not buying based on AI."

This is the paradox: the "AI" bubble is based on hype. It's not about creating useful things. It's about hype to inflate stock.
If the public resists the hype, then line does not go up.
So they hype harder and harder, repelling most people with their hard sell tactics.
It's a downward spiral.

Furries, do NOT buy this game if it is using any of that generative ai BS. Even if it is "just a little". This is how they slowly add it in and make it more accepted, and they WANT that. THAT is their plan.

This is not a massive decision or any kind of change. Costco has never carried mifepristone in its pharmacies. An anti-abortion group is taking credit for something that didn't happen, possibly to generate disingenuous left-wing ire against one of the few corporations that hasn't gone MAGA.

As always fuck this bigot and her hateful rhetoric
The employee asked the girl and her mother if they needed help shopping. That’s it. That’s all. The misinformation, the insinuations (because the facts are inconveniently benign) are EXACTLY what was done to lesbians in the 80s. This is the product of hate and fear, not reality.

Looks like minipainting has to do without Vallejo paints. First they ignore worker's right and safety in their factory, begrudgingly let them have a few fixes and now they blatantly use Generated Images as their selling point. If you can't support artists I can't support you.

“banning pornography” is bad on its own but it is imperative that everyone understand that these people consider the very existence of queer people to be pornographic
they consider the most chaste depiction of a queer relationship, or an openly trans person, to be porn and they want it banned

You don’t have to like, approve of, or engage with porn and nsfw work to see how right wing extremists are using fear and stigma around smut to ban queer people from public life, define “good” sex as only between married people for procreation, and otherwise further force white supremacy on everyone

Collective Shout, the group that took credit for bullying Mastercard into recently censoring more platforms, stated that apparently it took them ~1000 phonecalls to convince them to give them what they wanted?
We got like way more people than that don't we?

This censorship bullshit is always going to be the first step in the road to puritanical law. Fuck this group and the horse they road in on.
So you know how Steam updates their TOS to restrict "NSFW" content at the request of payment processors like Visa and Mastercard?
The group behind that pressure campaign is coming after Itch.io.
If you are selling books on itch, this concerns you.
