Like I know that the cost of housing is the HUGE thing people are struggling with, but price gouging from supermarkets is too and I'm glad this article refrained for including a call for more money for foodbanks given they rip ppl off too

Really important to stress that 36 Months accused academics and experts critical of the ban of being 'paid' by big tech. When asked for evidence of this, the MD said "I haven't looked into it."
Meanwhile 36 Months itself was directly funded by a business helping promote the gambling industry.

Scoop: the pro-teen social media ban lobby group 36 Months was funded & co-staffed by its co-founder's ad production firm that was simultaneously making gambling ads
The federal government has ignored calls for a gambling ad ban while pursuing the social media ban.

Everyone hates this shit so much. It’s a bipartisan issue. AI sucks. It’s intrusive. It isn’t magical nor is it changing the world other than in the amount of money being wasted on it. Consumers are increasingly offended by its presence

The thing that gets me about this is that even if we wanted to make a positive AI ad, they never showcase AI being used to enhance someone’s day or improve their workflow. There’s no “it allows me to more easily do what I love.” It’s always presented as a failsafe for the dispassionate and incurious
Every ad for AI is like
Person: FUCK!! I don’t know what to get my loved one for Christmas!!!!!! I love them so much!!! Tell me what to do, AI!!
AI: get sock
Title Card: You are literally the smartest person for doing this
