“Skater skirts aren’t in fashion anymore” Who cares, fashion trends are pretty much just a scam to make you buy more clothes before you need them, wear whatever the hell you want if it makes you happy and take the dopamine god damn

The confusion and conflation of ‘generative ai that is built on stolen artwork’ and ‘machine learning, character behaviour modelling and proc gen’ is intentional on the part of the grifters peddling the former. They benefit from murkiness of classification, because the latter predates their bollocks

In a just, functioning society, this would result in Google's immediate shutdown.
No "Oh, they paid him 0.000000000004% of their revenue in damages for slander!"-bullshit, just have state agents come to their offices and seize every asset.
Instead, they'll just get even more funding.

This is why there mustn't be any debate around genAI. There is no slippery slope, this is all it's ever been and all it ever will be.
It's no accident that the only *actual* use case seems to be "Generate revenge / child porn on demand!"
Shut it all down.

As someone who aspires to be a teacher someday, reading what the University of Oklahoma did infuriates me, not for myself, since I'm far away, but for all LGBTQ+ people, and trans people in particular in this case, across the pond. It's a big "Fuck you!" for the teacher and all of them.

Zero tolerance is the ONLY and FITTING response to genAI being used in production of media.
Sure, you might think it's too harsh. Sure, they might've only used it for early stuff in development, etc
Listen, it's not even a SLIPPERY slope, there is NO friction at all unless we speak out against it.

And not sure if this a hot take, but we probably need to have a conversation about the term "neonazi," because there are a bunch of dudes (eg, techbros) that wouldn't describe themselves as fans of Hitler but endorse the same eugenicist views.
These dorks are also neonazis.

What stage of Capitalism is this?
Instagram is letting neo-Nazism go mainstream. Influencers like Hayden McDougall and Dylan Shane push Holocaust denial, Nazi symbols, and extremist merch to millions — all under Meta’s watch. What was once fringe ideology is being algorithmically normalized in plain sight.

The tech freaks want AI to be a god that they control. That's painfully clear.
in a way, i think this is the real goal of AI, its not about productivity at all. if you can create enough "convincing" AI slop, you can erode away people's tethering to reality, and at that point, the flood gates open, and you can convince the masses of pretty much anything you want. terrifying.
