"We know that's a little in the weeds"

No, you're just cowards. This is embarrassing.

@edzitron.com finally calls out Hank Green for his bullshit AI videos. Love to see it. Now, since there isn't any plausible deniability left, Hank can do the work in reversing the damage done and address his audience.

Whatever money involved should be donated.

Imagine giving a robot access to your entire digital life in exchange for essentially nothing.

@edzitron.com was right. At least during the platform era we gave away our privacy for convenience. Today we're giving away so much to these companies for far less value.

A fraud, a vicious criminal, a white supremacist, and Luigi Mangione make Penn's Year in Review.

The irony of the working class imagery, as if any of these fucking parasites think the people who actually work on steel beams deserve a living wage.

But even now, as Mastodon Org speaks up, they refuse to call the enemy by name, referring to Meta as "another corporate social media platform"

I call it Operation MySpace 2.0 aka the siphon strategy.

You know who'd love if these laws pass? #Meta. It'll mean less competition as small communities fold under the weight of legislative compliance costs.

Remember that, and remember that two years ago, #Fediverse leaders under NDA helped Meta create a one-way siphon out of #Mastodon and into #Threads.

Innovation is when Company A gives Company B hundreds of billions of dollars so that Company B can turn around and buy Company A's product that Company B uses to run a service that burns billions of dollars a year.

No, Hank has not gone down that road directly. He is echoing TESCREAL talking points on AI-doomerism, which the end-game is always populating the cosmos with the smartest minds, pro-natalist, Rationalists bullshit.

Bernie Sander's Labor Committee asked CHATGPT how many jobs CHATGPT will take from humans.

@sanders.senate.gov's team asked an AI chatbot to *predict* the future, then they published it.

Whoever is in Bernie's ear about #AI does not have the country's best interests in mind.

Implementing #AgeVerification is required by law. Echoing the "won't someone think of the kids" rhetoric while doing so is a choice.
