The idea of digital sovereignty doesn’t make any sense to me. Sovereignty and infrastructure are mutually exclusive.

Your other favorite so-called "critic," Gary Marcus, threatened to sue me for publicly writing how he attacked me, unsummoned. For writing the things he said that people could very easily find themselves.
People were like "you're on the same side."

Reupping this today. For obvious reasons.
Also it's ~wild~ to see a topic you've written a whole book on, have cited mostly women and PoC authors, and yet a whole multi-thousand newsletter post only cites ... other substack bros.
If academics wrote books like substack bros.
“If you’ve been with me for a while you know that I like to go DEEP into a topic. That’s just who I am. Well this new book goes extra hard & I’ve written 90k words on my fave subject. But bear with me, folks, it’s gonna be a wild ride, so buckle up.”

“Enshittification” created an imaginary space where the problems of social spaces starts when it hits their radar
Bluesky has been bad for marginalized folks and had to be insulted into moderation
And treats folks that remind them as pariahs
That’s the problem
Jay Graber has vowed to prevent enshittification. Allowing Jesse Singal on this site is the entrance ramp to the enshittification highway. The success of Bluesky is due, in part, to the early, heavy participation of trans people fleeing "X"/Twitter due to the harassment that Elon Musk allowed there.
Singal's ONLY reason for being on social media is to harass trans people and their friends. He doesn't even disguise the fact, he's been very open about his intention to harass trans people on this site. Any site that allows him to have an account is endorsing and encouraging that harassment.

Turns out all the major LLMs (GPT-4, Claude, Gemini, Llama 3) struggle to understand Gen Alpha phrases, like "let him cook", "ate that up", "got ratioed", "secure the bag" etc. Research paper written by a soon-to-be 9th grader www.404media.co/ai-models-an...
AI Models And Parents Don’t Understand ‘Let Him Cook’
LLMs are not familiar with “ate that up,” “secure the bag,” and “sigma,” showing that training data is not yet updated to Gen Alpha terminology.

That TikTok account has a few fake videos of reporters getting detained. They make these videos because it’s a big story in the news. Real reporters are getting arrested. And so people are making AI videos to get engagement on TikTok.
