”God loves you, but not enough to save you“

Ethel Cain, Sentrum Scene, fantastic concert, still reeling from an exceptional performance.

This generative ai situation is completely insane. Every major tech company is spending billions of dollars so that they can lose money running "features" that can't seem to do anything that people will pay for, and to do so it requires violating copyright and burning the planet

lot of negativity towards AI lately, but consider :

are these tools ethical or environmentally sustainable? No.

*but* do they enable great things that people want? Also no.

*but* are they being made by well meaning people for good reasons? Once again, no.

maybe you're not being negative *enough*

This is just to say

I have discovered
the corpsicle
that was in
the Alaskan ice

and which
you were probably
saving
for She Who Awakens

Forgive me
they were half-dead
so screamy
and so cold

When we warn the real threat of AI is how it’s used against people in the present, not the fantasies that some day computers might think for themselves, this is exactly the kind of thing we’re talking about: health insurers using AI to deny care.
