Good words of warning here. AI models are generally designed to read and incorporate (and, in a sense, believe) virtually everything they find online, with very few guardrails. The information can get divorced from its original source, context, & rebuttals or retractions. That's a really big problem

BLM Announces Plan to Fell Oregon's Last Great Forests One billion board feet per year... 30 days to make your voice heard.

You only have a short time to comment. They are trying to destroy our forests to enrich a few logging company executives and the politicians they’ve paid off.

those girls

aren't like ours they're
smaller & glass limbed
ready to detonate on
the first breeze of a
saturday our girls
smile more & swallow
their blood those girls
were asking for rubble they
prayed for the liberation
of concrete & haze our
girls are innocent & sweet
you can tell because 
their skin matches their
teeth.

Her husband wanted to use ChatGPT to create sustainable housing. Then it took over his life. Kate Fox says Joe Ceccanti was the β€˜most hopeful person’ before he started spending 12 hours a day with a chatbot

β€œIt’s difficult to understand the scale of the problem, but OpenAI itself estimates that more than a million people every week show suicidal intent when chatting with ChatGPT.”

EVERYTHING you have ever asked about or shared with OpenAI is going to intel database. Our government will know everything there is to about everything you asked or have offered to ChatGPT

Satellite proposals threaten the night sky In the United States, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the agency responsible for authorizing satellite launches and operations…

The FCC just opened public comments on SpaceX's plan to launch a million satellites to do AI compute in space. Under the current proposal, an environmental review won't be required. Please consider submitting a public comment to oppose this damaging plan.

no. any student loan public or private is ineligible for discharge in bankruptcy. you can't even pay a student loan off with a credit card then use bankruptcy to discharge the credit card. it's bullshit.

unfortunately no. they'd still be "student" loans. private student loans aren't dischargeable either (ask me how I know!)

Relevant to today's conversation about AI's inherent sexism, here's an email from cognitive psychologist and early AI theorist Roger Schank, arguing to Epstein that women can't be truly intelligent, because they care too much about what other people think.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt: Listen to Queer Youth on Section 230 Repealing Section 230 would be dangerous or deadly for thousands of young people, activists, and journalists

These groups are exploiting the real pain & anger people rightfully feel towards Big Tech while positioning Section 230 as the problem when their true aim is to restrict resources/online free speech of groups they don’t like. Please sign + share: www.fightforthefuture.org/actions/jose...
