Instead of regurgitating the bromide that LLMs are just "autocomplete on steroids" (even by people who know better), maybe we can actually engage in some public education. The problem with genAI is better expressed through a classic computer science concept, known as SYMBOL GROUNDING. 🧵

Artist makes website that lets you take selfies through NYC's network of traffic cameras. NYC Department of Transportation sends cease and desist. Artist nails cease and desist to a very very very long pole & holds it up to one of the cameras to take a photo of it

Like the next liberal, I’m seriously concerned that the Americans voted for a fascist.
I’m also slightly disappointed by the amount of Bluesky anti Trump memes and derogatory references to ‘the other place’. To me there’s a whiff of snobbery about it all. Snobbery got us here in the first place.
