New from me: The storied fiddler Ashley MacIsaac wanted to play a show at a Nova Scotia First Nation. It got cancelled because Google's AI search summary incorrectly called him a sex offender. Now he's worried for his safety www.theglobeandmail.com/culture/arti...

While the plagiarism and anti-labor aspects of AI are obviously super bad, this is an aspect that imo we really need to push more re: anti-AI messaging.

its propping up climate-destroying industries and is a MASSIVE resource drain at a time where our resources should really be used more wisely

Every single person leaking this shit is a Patriot. Keep leaking everything this corrupt Government is trying to cover up.
TikTok is removing clips of the leaked 60 Minutes segment.

The Ellison family (which acquired Paramount — CBS’s parent company — and The Free Press, making Bari Weiss Editor-in-Chief of CBS) is set to co-own TikTok through a Trump-backed deal.

Say it with me now- placeholder assets are supposed to be bright and obvious so you DON’T ship with them.

Also it doesn’t matter if no ai-generated assets are in the final executable?? The rising sea levels aren’t gonna be like “oh well no one saw that so the climate change doesn’t count”

Something that has crystallized in my brain is that a lot of people have no idea what power is or how it works so progressive voices having some cultural impact is seen as powerful while the richest man alive being a white supremacist isn’t

I say this with zero irony: if you are even tangentially a part of a retro video game community, it is your civic duty to push back against this company and shun anyone who doesn't. This is fascism tapping gently at the door and as soon as you let it in, it's going to invite its friends.
