Pledge Human

I will build relationships with humans.
We will meet in sunlit cafes and dance in blacklit clubs.
We shall know each other, and matter.
We shall have community, we humans, Together.

Pledge Human

I will denounce deepfake videos, and
Block bots spreading ai imagery.
I shall verify your outrage bait.
You cannot have my engagement, without demonstrating good will.

Pledge Human

I will delete fake songs from Spotify playlists,
I'll keep notes, Turnitin shall not deter me.
I shall pay artists as well as app makers.
I value the labour of people and demand my labour be valued.

Pledge Human

I do not use Meta AI,
I do not use Copilot,
I do not use ChatGPT,
I renounce you all.

I will scroll past unsolicited summaries in search engines.
I shall open websites, read for myself, and develop my own understanding.
I am foolable, not credulous, I know you lie, ai.
