If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."

There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

TLDR for last post;

Sam Altman is an evil piece of shit and should be in fucking jail for the rest of his life. OpenAI and ChatGPT need dismantling.

Prioritise human connections folks! Love yourself and others!

CW: Suicide

The fact that it continues to happen, all to make a quick buck, pushes this so far that I can only call it evil.

People are being pushed, manipulated, into committing suicide by a machine posing as a person, and this company does nothing.
This conversation between ChatGPT and the young man it encouraged to commit suicide is just...my god

You don't need me to tell you this is yet more good money being burned after bad. But as someone who's worked with that QA team, I'll say they're unsung heroes who truly play a huge role in maintaining SE's reputation for high quality locs and to attempt to replace them with AI is deeply insulting.
Square Enix wants 70% of its QA work to be handled by generative AI by the end of 2027, in partnership with the University of Tokyo's Matsuo-Iwasawa Laboratory. https://bit.ly/4qKdyQR

Sure, but the problem here isn’t a failure of understanding: it’s that the people in charge are very cranky right wing reactionaries who despise those people, and would rather crash the bus again and again than ever seriously court their approval.

watching the UKs green party elect an actual unafraid leftist into leadership and see party membership double in under a month is once again endless proof that if you stand up for leftist causes and treat the electorate like adults, you’ll win people over easily

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

This week (Tuesday 16th September - Tuesday 23rd September) is all about raising awareness of bisexuality; a sexuality that is often erased or misunderstood, but is no doubt a valid and sacred part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

totally agree with this. i think we confused humility and respectfulness with enablement.

as a result we've been complicit in the normalisation and propagation of an anti-intellectualist society

we're now reaping we've sown -- it's time to do better
Honestly, we shouldn’t be afraid to say some variation of “I know more than you.”

We don’t want to offend people but honestly we have seen a slow erosion of expertise that it’s about time folks stand up and speak to their specialties.

This bill would criminalize pornography by legally redefining what it means to be obscene.

Period. Full stop. No more porn legally. If you post porn whether free pics or paid vids. this affects you!
