Tips for New Bluesky Users:
1. It is the year 0079 of the Universal Century.
2. A half-century has passed since Earth began moving its burgeoning population into gigantic orbiting space colonies.
3. A new home for mankind, where people are born and raised.
4. And die.

This can be a difficult and nuanced discussion, especially for people that are out of the tech loop. I try to break it down as
AI = shit you've been using for over a decade. Predictive text. NPC enemy AI. Specialized machine learning.
GenAI = shit built on stolen/scraped assets from the Internet

If we’re going to get really no quarter about genAI usage, I’m going to need people to learn the difference between AI and genAI real fast.

Deep down, perhaps every right-leaning man wishes that chatbots could be the endlessly supportive and sexually receptive secretaries they saw in 70s movies or in porn.
This is why almost every AI system is voiced by default by a young-sounding woman.

If we are banning cell phones for kids we need to be talking about banning chatbots for boomers

Whew, I sure am glad that this entire enterprise isn’t a giant grift whose only major outcomes are massive theft, rampant job destruction, and active degradation of the environment and well-being of those living near the vast data centers needed to run it. Otherwise it might seem like folly!

Stupid ass economy.
Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

"A.i." is a tool of racists and fascists and liars. Do not use it and do not spread it. Abolish "A.i." from every space and org you have authority over - at the very least from your own computers and social media feeds.
This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.

The reason you defend civil liberties is not because it is popular (it is never popular) but because if the government can deport you to a foreign gulag without trial then it doesn't matter how popular the rest of your policy platform is.
