'AI Is African Intelligence': The Workers Who Train AI Are Fighting Back Kenyan workers are still the underpaid labor behind AI training, moderation, and sex chatbots. The Data Labelers Association is fighting back.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

Max Fleischer’s granddaughter has been funding these restorations on her own and we’d really appreciate if we can get the public support on the blu ray. It will help us get more out of the vault and keep the legacy alive. Thank you!

Anyway, I hope [small business owner] enjoys filling up his F150 with $6/gallon gas as he drives into Austin from Georgetown and back everyday. Sorry [80s dtv director] that someone called you racist on the internet one time! Hope this is all very healing for you. 3/3

Some thought he would be better for national security, some saw Kamala as the face of a woke movement that had gone too far. All agreed he would be better for the economy and reined in by level headed advisors. 2/3

I rarely look at Facebook, but it is the one social media site where I am connected with Trump 2024 voters (that I know of). I saw a lot of defensive posts around the election with a common refrain of "I think he's a bad person, but..." 1/3

Yes! I wish I had seen 1-6 too. I just rewatched The Return last year, though, so I wasn't feeling super motivated. Kicking myself now.

I saw [new sci-fi movie about countries banding together to solve a global natural disaster] last week, and first thing I thought was, "Nah, people would just be betting on which nation would collapse first."

Larry Ellison, who lives on a Hawaiian island he owns 98% of, and who flies fighter jets for fun... thinks he knows what "the middle of the country" wants for their entertainment?

Vin Diesel beginning to emerge from under the surface of the sea. The water is bowing like a thin vacuumed formed plastic sheet around his head.

Vin Diesel further out of the sea. The water is surrounding him like a cocoon.

His head is fully out now. He is still - somehow - full encased into a carapace of water, his cheeks blown out like a squirrel gathering a feast for winter.

Half watching a very poor Vin Diesel Triple X film so I could collect this moment when he emerges from under water. This isn’t a special effect.

This was the Landmark staff screening at The Metro, btw, @theendofcinema.bsky.social . I remember the Metro manager on duty apoligizing and saying "They're not mine!."

At the one I went to some rowdy bros took their shirts off to reveal they had S N A K E S painted on their bare chests and were hooting and hollering like it was a football game. They got kicked out before the movie even started! I often wonder what the rest of their night was like.

Atlanta Public School was wild. Things we watched in class:
‐ a cam bootleg of The Lion King
- Predator 2 (someone convinced the teacher that the thermal vision sequences were "scientific.")
- Bad Boys
- the Zeffirelli Romeo & Juliet (a kid got up and rewound the part with nudity)

"Well, that was bad!" - unassuming cinema patron
"I'm sorry, what did you say?" - Matt turning various shades of scarlet with cartoon smoke billowing out his ears.
"So bad it's good?" - person not realizing their clarification has just made the situation even worse.

Sorry to get radical but I don’t think it’s my job or yours to embrace, accept, understand - and certainly not to use - the thing being sold to us as AI. I don’t like any part of it, so I won’t. I’m missing out? Good, that’s what I want. You’re worried about me missing out? That’s fuckin weird, man.
