Just a reminder that generative AI is theft of labor and intellectual property, uses vast amounts of energy/ water, provides at best mediocre results (if not outright lies or misinformation), actually affects your ability to think over time (mind duh), and is in general a really fucking bad idea.

Let's be clear: Israel's attack on Iran is not simply a violation of the UN Charter. It is a manifest violation of it. Few acts are more unequivocally illegal than preventive (non-imminent) self-defence. So Israel's attack is both unlawful and criminal -- the crime of aggression.

Das Plakat ist eine Straftat. Aber die Reaktion des Botschafters, das anonyme Plakat der @humboldtuni.bsky.social und ihrer Fakultät zuzuschreiben, ist inakzeptabel. Das @diplo.de muss reagieren und diese Entgleisung zurückweisen.
In Berlin klebt ein ekelhaftes, gewaltverherrlichendes Plakat – und Israels Botschafter nutzt den Vorfall, um gegen Universitäten zu hetzen.
Es erinnert fatal an Trump: unter dem Deckmantel des Kampfes gegen Antisemitismus wird nicht Hetze bekämpft, sondern (kritische) Wissenschaft delegitimiert.
