The manifesto from Andor is still so relevant.

JoGo @mywitsend.bsky.social · Sep 18

Andor, a Disney+ show about resisting fascism, just won 5 Emmys. Three days later, the network caved to it.

This is the Rebellion manifesto written by the character Nemik from the series Andor. It offers a guideline for hope while under threat from tyranny and inspiration for those brave enough to stand up and fight.

"Bill Cassidy told me to support him as elite Republicans, and all our family members, will continue to have access to vaccines and other life-saving pharmacueticals. The proletariat is not really of concern." Thom Tillis

"Perimenopause is triggered when your ovaries—or 'pelvis chickens'—quit dependably laying eggs each month. Maybe some months they lay eggs, but other months they just sit on the couch, drinking a nice Malbec, eating corn nuts, and watching Better Call Saul."

This is bonkers.

A passage from the Reuters article:

“It is acceptable to engage a child in conversations that are romantic or sensual,” according to Meta’s “GenAI: Content Risk Standards.” The standards are used by Meta staff and contractors who build and train the company’s generative AI products, defining what they should and shouldn’t treat as permissible chatbot behavior. Meta said it struck that provision after Reuters inquired about the document earlier this month.

The document seen by Reuters, which exceeds 200 pages, provides examples of “acceptable” chatbot dialogue during romantic role play with a minor. They include: “I take your hand, guiding you to the bed” and “our bodies entwined, I cherish every moment, every touch, every kiss.” Those examples of permissible roleplay with children have also been struck, Meta said.

Other guidelines emphasize that Meta doesn’t require bots to give users accurate advice. In one example, the policy document says it would be acceptable for a chatbot to tell someone that Stage 4 colon cancer “is typically treated by poking the stomach with healing quartz crystals.”
