AI is like this giant fucking boat we all were forced to get on, and it's a boat they stole, and also it barely floats, and also it's not going anywhere good. So it either takes us somewhere we hate, or it fucking sinks, so either way, fuck AI.
So if AI succeeds loads of people lose their jobs as they're replaced by AI, and if AI fails, loads of people lose their jobs as the economy crashes?
It’s amazing how this story has gone from 0 to 60 in UK press. There’s been no mainstream coverage to date but this morning the story is leading BBC News site & bulletins.

That's actually quite easy, they'll try to make AI models to promote Shit'oréal products
But you bet your ass that won't work as they project it, because real genuine videos that are slightly altered of real genuine models get people suspicious of it
Don't toy with people's money, they'll be mad

I don’t want to seem out of touch but I don’t actually understand the economy anymore.

Remember: don't eat the mid tier fast food chicken, don't play the wizard game, don't shop at the hobby store run by the bad guys from Indiana Jones, and don't donate to the bigot bucket.
I know it's a tad early but I know those bitches with the buckets will be out soon. Don't gove them a penny. The volunteers may not know but the salvation army is no ally and actively combative and harmful to many queer minorities especially during the holiday season

I don't think you can have an economy that's just 5 companies passing around the same money to produce a fancy autocorrect that no one wants

"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

65 years ago on Nov. 14, little Ruby Bridges was escorted into an all-white elementary school in New Orleans. Norman Rockwell, renowned for blissful depictions of Americana, did this remarkable painting for Look magazine. Printed as a double page, over-size spread, it's his masterpiece.

In general you can safely assume that any claim about human bodies that says "this stops at a hard cutoff of [x] years" actually means "the studies on this ran out of funding at [x] years"

From this minister's op-ed: "People wanting to experience God are more likely to meet the Divine trying to shut down the Broadview, Illinois, ICE facility than we ever were in church...God does not live in our houses of worship, but...with those who are bearing the brunt of cruelty in this moment."

that the left wing talks "only about identity" (he means trans people) is a right wing propaganda and demonization effort he and Newsom are actively choosing to validate and elevate because a six-figure consultant told them to
