awesome. I love the uncritical uptake of the logic of eugenics by technological systems which will increasingly come to determine the rest of our lives.

Once again asking all educators who're embracing AI to consider how the technology's mounting environmental harms are antithetical to our work with young people and their futures on a habitable planet.
“Ability to find power right now will determine the winners and losers in the AI arms race. It has left us with a map bleeding with places where the retirement of fossil plants are being delayed.”
AI is exhausting the power grid. Tech firms are seeking a miracle solution.
Some data centers need as much energy as a small city, turning companies that promised a clean energy future into some of the most insatiable guzzlers of power

Good!

Miles Astray entered a real, albeit surreal photo of a flamingo into the AI category of the 1839 Color Photography Awards [...]

“I wanted to show that nature can still beat the machine and that there is still merit in real work from real creatives,” Astray tells PetaPixel over email.

being autistic is really simple actually because you're either thinking about exactly one thing for four months or absolutely fuck all for a year and a half

Noor lives in Gaza with an ailing mother and small children. Anything would be helpful to buy milk, medicine, supplies, or a reskeet to show support if you can. Thank you.

Galloway winning the Rochdale by-election on a pro-Palestine platform is only good as a loss for Starmer's Labour & to galvenise nationwide anti-Labour sentiment.

He's also a bigoted opportunist, as you can see below in the difference between the leaflets he sent to Muslim & non-Muslim households.

I don't really know if I can handle the sheer hatred of the most marginalised people we're seeing in the world at the moment. How many needless deaths are we going to be forced to look at until enough is enough? Any action any of us can take in response to the killing is inadequate.
