"I helped create a mythology of AI as a force for good. It's based on magical thinking: it's distracting from the very real harms that are happening today"

This short video on the false promise of using AI for climate is brilliant.
The speaker worked years at Microsoft and resigned over the AI's broken promise.
It's only 5 minutes, but a high quality 5 minutes:

Dystopias don’t arrive with fanfare. They seep in, bureaucratic and banal, draped in rhetoric about safety and tradition.
The warning in The Handmaid’s Tale is how easily people normalize the slide.
When the unimaginable feels inevitable, resistance matters more than fear.

Reminder to comment on that art post or fanfic, and drop a review of that book. Telling creatives what you think, even if it’s just a one line sentence, truly does make a difference! And I don’t just mean ‘engagement’. I mean it will make their day. Tell someone when you love their work 🤍

I just started following this beautiful sista on YT who goes by the handle @EpicuriousExpeditions who creates recipes for the intellectually and physically disabled. Many of her recipes require little to no cutting and no standing.
