Can't stress how impressed I am by their work. That's what journalism should be about, I hope all these students will get the recognition they deserve: www.digitaldigging.org/p/they-drone...
Hey, I scored this.
A large white statistic on a purple background reads: 98% of deepfakes are porn.
A large white statistic on a purple background reads: 99% target women.
A large white statistic on a purple background reads: 74% of deepfake pornography users don't feel guilty about it.
Text on a purple background under the heading 'WE MUST STOP CYBERVIOLENCE' lists four demands: Ban AI systems that generate non-consensual deepfake pornography; Criminalise creation and sharing of non-consensual deepfakes; Ensure cross-border victim support with rapid-response, legal aid, and fast takedowns; Fund prevention and digital literacy. There is a button to 'Read our full article'.
Violence against women and girls has moved into our devices. From image-based abuse to coordinated harassment and non-consensual synthetic media, these attacks silence, intimidate and exclude women from public life. We must stop this.

This 👇. These are the only options. Europe can either be a vassal of the US, or a federal Union. The option "Bobbing-lazily -along-as-a-semi-loose-intergovernmental-Union-while-being-besties-with-the-Friendly-Giant-across-the-pond" is no longer available.
For the last year, whenever I wonder why I bother putting so much time into Volt and general politics, the US government puts out statements like this.
Yeah, we need a different, renewed European Union, and we need it fast - otherwise, fascists like Trump will dictate the terms for us.
“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas”
Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas.
Completely understandable reaction, but you got this, friend!
“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to
Nightlife.
What a great headline
Here are several happy Virginia opossums (Didelphis virginiana). Some are carrying babies on their backs. Fallen leaves surround them. The atmosphere is cozy and warm.
Happy possum
I'm really looking forward to Anarchy 2E because of that 😂
Black Book seem to get this exact problem, and they're NOT Catalyst, so they might actually be willing to fix things. Feels very promising so far ^^
"there are no third spaces anymore" wrong. blast furnace
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

Yeah, and that's not to be disregarded. Noone owes it to a company to give them money.
Can't speak for others, but I only do it because that supports the creatives employed at a studio. If I can't trust the company's managers to put my money where I expected it to go, why buy from them at all?
Libraries purchase books. When you see a book at the library, it isn’t “free”
the library bought it.
which in turn means that the community bought it.
In other words, library books are not lost sales for authors and publishers; they’re positive sales. Active sales. Those are bought.

Our editorial stance is kidnappings are bad. This is not Real Journalism because it's important to be neutral about atrocities
In an Australia first, I used FOI to get the AI chat logs of Australia's top national security bureaucrat.
They show how he used Microsoft Copilot to ghostwrite speeches and messages to colleagues.
This comes as the government looks to push AI use in the public service.

Eine demokratische Gesellschaft braucht keine (biometrischen) Big-Data-Auswertungen mit Profilbildung durch Verknüpfung von allen möglichen Datenbanken - egal wer diese Überwachungssoftware herstellt.
I wouldn't put too much stock into this, as they're just putting that money into AI directly in the hope of better returns; still a nice headline tho 😂
My Facebook post of @ChiquitaBrands and @Chiquita posting "We've just overthrown the government of Brazil", to which the later replied "We apologize to those who have served a misleading message from a fake Chiquita account. We have not overthrown a government since 1954"

![Comic. Someone is claiming to predict the exact date of a future earthquake. Should you listen?

You won’t need this flowchart.)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:cz73r7iyiqn26upot4jtjdhk/bafkreic7wdqg4w6qfevbqzzq4esd6237pojsnpwsrbb7gaxsxobqaiwazm)

The TV Academy is inviting me to a “GenJam”. Like a game jam, but for generative AI.
As the entertainment industry cooks itself in desperation, digital creators are just out here building passionate audiences and making money.
