Go Tell Twitch to stuff AI right up its ass.

HERE: ▶️ twitch.uservoice.com/forums/92471... ◀️
Do not impliment the AI auto clip tool Twitch has implemented a sign up for an AI alpha auto clip tool. This is very unethical in many ways to not just content creation but also to things outside content creation. I ask twitch to remove this sign up and not engage in any use of AI when it comes to content creation. Facts about AI usage Google’s single Iowa data center alone consumed 1 billion gallons of water in 2024. The first way AI uses water is for cooling. Data centers run thousands of powerful computers around the clock. As these machines crunch numbers and manage data, they generate a lot of heat. To keep everything running smoothly, water is often used in cooling systems. This can mean circulating water through pipes to absorb heat or using evaporative cooling towers that release warm air. Ai is trained to use already created content for training with out user consent. This has already been happening on social media. Twitch's AI clip tool ''claims'' they will not use user generated clips with out consent for training to assume what constitutes as high engagement moments for clip creation. AI data centers now generate 2.5–3.7% of global greenhouse gas emissions, officially surpassing the aviation industry’s 2% contribution while growing 15% annually. It is very important that people speak up and say no to the AI clip tool especially partners and ambassadors as this tool is very harmful to the community. Turning it off as an option is not enough.

Oh look, there are renderings. The Versailles jokes make themselves. Also, this architecture firm should be laughed out of existence.
A very large, very white and gold ballroom with Baroque-style arched windows, coved ceilings, and gold chandeliers obviously meant to invoke comparisons to Versailles. Completely inappropriate to the architectural style of the White House.

It's worth checking out the amazing 49-year-old 24-year-olds that make up the staff at the architecture firm that designed the Big Box King's Throne Room where the East Wing was. The firm changed their website to be landing-page-only, but the Archive still has it:

web.archive.org/web/20250419...
A twenty-something year old white man with 1930s-style pomaded hair and an argyle bowtie, named Smithers A twenty-something year old white man whose smile looks like he just smelled a fart A twenty-something year old white man wearing a loud paisley tie and a large silber cross with Jesus on it Text from the architect's website stating "What are we striving to do? We are striving to exercise our talents to achieve works of excellence that fully participate in the ongoing development of Tradition. This embrace of history inspires our work, and we labor in the vineyard with Iktinos, Kallikrates, Vitruvius, Suger, Brunelleschi, Alberti, Michelangelo, Bramante, Borromini, Bernini, Palladio, Jefferson, Latrobe, Bacon, Richardson, Sullivan, Lutyens, McKim, Cram, and Greenberg."

Awful: Trump's $230 million shakedown from DOJ can be paid to him confidentially at first, without the public ever finding out about it until later, Rep Jamie Raskin tells me.

Raskin will formally demand full communications between WH and DOJ on this.

New from me:

Trump’s Vile New $230 Million Shakedown of DOJ Just Got Even Worse
It’s bad enough that Trump wants—and DOJ will likely fork over—this tribute payment. Now, get this: It can probably be done at first without even being revealed publicly.

Trump’s War on Antifa Is Destined to Backfire
By raising the salience of anti-fascism, the administration is likely to inspire a heightened public profile for the movement—and a deeper identification with its ideas and values.
