Deep breath
Ok I'm going to try and stay calm
But I'll point out that AI translation is literally causing translators to be fired (see the whole Harlequin line in France)

Really useful advice for authors on how to deal with the Anthropic settlement. In my case, I'm trying to figure out whether I or my publishers are the reproduction-rights-holders, which matters for where the payouts go.

Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

Heute ist der internationale Tag gegen Gewalt gegen Frauen. Geht auf die Straße, seid laut, seid solidarisch.
Bild: Für alle, die patriarchale Gewalt nicht überlebt haben. Für alle, die durch patriarchale Gewalt versehrt sind. Für alle, die in Freiheit und Gleichheit leben wollen. #keinemehr. Seid wütend, bildet Banden.

Für @zeitonline.bsky.social habe ich einen Essay geschrieben über das, was wir gerade Backlash nennen und frage mich, ob es diesen wirklich gibt oder ob wir nicht seit langem etwas vor allem unter Aspekten der Gerechtigkeit diskutieren, obwohl es in Wirklichkeit essenziell für unsere Demokratie ist.
Gesellschaftlicher Backlash: Wovor wir Frauen wirklich Angst haben sollten
Was viele seit Beginn der Kanzlerschaft von Friedrich Merz als Backlash bezeichnen, ist gar keiner: Wir sind beim Feminismus nur nicht weit genug vorangekommen.

"Massive Verschlechterungen befürchten die Beratungszentren für betroffene Frauen, die zum größten Teil wegen Gewalt, aber auch wegen prekärer Arbeits- oder Lebensumstände die Vereine aufsuchen."
Es ist so schlimm.

"According to the publication, the communications could demonstrate willful infringement, potentially leading to enhanced damages of up to $150,000 per work, a massive increase from just $750."

The fact that it was ever at $750 is a slap in the face.

"Nur Ja heißt Ja": Frankreich verschärft Sexualstrafrecht:

"Demnach gelten
"Schweigen oder das Fehlen einer Reaktion" nicht als Zustimmung zu einem sexuellen Akt.
Es braucht vielmehr ein ausdrückliches Ja. Die Zustimmung sei unter anderem frei, konkret und widerrufbar."
Frankreich: Sex ohne Zustimmung gilt künftig als Vergewaltigung
In Frankreich gilt künftigt: "Nur Ja heißt Ja." Damit nimmt das Land die explizite Zustimmung zu sexuellen Handlungen in sein Strafrecht auf.

New story day!

"Phantom View" is about a son caretaking for his father, and discovering a blurry person in all their family photos that he has no memory of. The same figure is in all his dad's paintings--and the figure may be in the house with them right now.
Phantom View - Reactor
A disabled son care-taking for a disabled father try to understand the mysterious blur haunting them.

Being able to *attract* women’s desire is not the game here. It’s being able to compel their compliance.

“Well-meaning” people are using machine translation to write Wikipedia articles in languages that they don’t speak themselves, accelerating the degeneration in quality of the web corpus for several languages with relatively few native speakers.

How AI and Wikipedia have sent vulnerable languages into a doom spiral
Machine translators have made it easier than ever to create error-plagued Wikipedia articles in obscure languages. What happens when AI models get trained on junk pages?
