“AI workers said they distrust the models they work on because of a consistent emphasis on rapid turnaround time at the expense of quality.”
Meet the AI workers who tell their friends and family to stay away from AI
When the people making AI seem trustworthy are the ones who trust it the least, it shows that incentives for speed are overtaking safety, experts say

These 20 House Democrats just joined Republicans in voting to fully repeal DC's police reform laws.

Wiping off the books critical laws on use of force, transparency, and preventing violent cops from getting rehired.

They think that they should have more say over DC police than the people of DC.

The AI bubble may be about to bust.

Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.

We all need to say this very clearly:

NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!

Expropriate their asses instead.

They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.

They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

Ate a mediocre hotel breakfast across from a once famous comedian from my childhood. Life is mysterious, horrible, and wonderful.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.

certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Hey. "No Other Choice" is the best film I've seen all year. I've seen some good ones, which is rare this year, as I'm usually a year or four behind.

Every decade, we hear "the kids can't read or write!"

Interventions that don't work are proposed. Those that do work are ignored: reducing class sizes, making kids & families feel safe at school and welcome, becoming a community resource.

When their expensive reform fails, they yell at us again.

I can't recommend getting goofy drunk in St. Louis more. It's certainly not the alcohol at the bar and restaurant in the basement of this novelty British Lit hotel talking and truly the ambience of the city.

And I have a flat tire. Please, if anyone needs art done for them, consider hiring me.
Hey, I'm going to be honest, I've had some rotten luck these last couple months. About three different projects got cancelled, so, if you need covers, pages, posters, album art, and you like my style, please consider hiring me.

“Don’t be diabetic and eat better, poors.”

Not an exaggeration, that’s literally Bhattacharya’s plan.

When we said the Great Barrington Declaration smacked of eugenics, this is what we meant.
Jay Bhattacharya's plan for a new pandemic is for everyone to suddenly be healthy.

I used to post on Myspace how we would convenience ourselves into extinction. At some point I assumed we'd stop and fight it. COVID showed me otherwise.

Hello! It's been a year and some change since I was laid-off from my previous job, and I'd love a new one.

My name is Steve and I have 7 years of experience in the animation industry as a background artist and illustrator. I've worked on shows like Castlevania, and card games like MtG!

Ah yes, trusted tech entrepreneur Jack Dorsey. This will all go perfectly.

The new app will feature over 10,000 classic archived Vines and will prohibit AI-generated content.

if you voted in Seattle you gotta make sure your ballot counted now
There are 1,700 ballots that need signature confirmation. That is enough to change the election.

BREAKING: After months of stonewalling by Starbucks, unionized baristas just voted 92% to authorize a ULP strike unless Starbucks finalizes fair contracts & stops union busting.

If forced, our baristas will strike in dozens of cities on November 13 – the company's busiest sales day of the year.
Starbucks unionized workers say they'll strike on Nov. 13 if coffee giant doesn't finalize contract
Union members say they are ready to strike on the chain's Red Cup Day if Starbucks doesn't finalize a contract with their union by then.
