An outdoorsy photoshoppy mole- likes National Trust scones & Dartmoor. A bookish mole in a hole seeking the return of integrity. Not sure this account adds much to it though. #AltText - no AI🚫

My only thought for the Bluesky arrivals notice board is “it’s ok to repost more often.”
[my understanding is the algorithms (if there are any) don’t pick up on ‘likes’ in the same way as old Twitter. A ‘like’ is lovely, but a *manual* repost is the primary ‘algorithm’ to actively share something]
This is such a red flag.

I have now lived in the British countryside for most of my five decades on earth, within which time I have come to know it well. I thought, for newcomers to the place, I'd write a short guide to some of its more interesting aspects. You will find them in this thread.

'training people in AI' as in 'directly removing the intelligence from the evolved ape and funnelling it into the clever box of very expensive sand'

I’ve lived in the Devon countryside for half of my extremely long life… and I can say that this is, without a shadow of a doubt, the absolute truth. 😁

Your occasional reminder that Judge Dredd is a warning, not an instruction manual.

Stallone Dredd acts as a further warning against casting Stallone.

And copying in @2000ad.bsky.social for egotistical purposes.
Wait, it gets worse...

Well, as it’s 28 January, it must be time to mark the 365th anniversary of that most rational example of that most sensible of judicial measures, capital punishment. Yes, this was the day Oliver Cromwell’s corpse was exhumed so he could be hanged and beheaded for regicide 🧵

How about they train us how to switch it the fuck off, purge it from all of our interfaces and operating systems, and spend their (sorry, OUR) monies on something useful?

Rather than trashing the environment, and facilitating the rising tide of brain-rot slop?

Would love to know who paid whom...

Free training on how to spot disinformation and misinformation for every adult would be be far more useful imho. Might actually get trust and the truth back into politics.

Please, Liz Kendall, include as part of this training: methods to recognise AI content, scams, online manipulation and lies. We need to have a population who can distinguish reality and resist disinformation!

The UK is propping up AI companies who cannot make a profit shovelling this crap. A massive deal at the taxpayers expense to boost user numbers for an investment PowerPoint slide.

Ai companies have admitted themselves they need critical mass, corporate use isn’t enough.

And the personal data…

Being able to identify hoaxes, avoid scams & debunk propaganda is a civic skill required in today's information society. That's why curriculum for students in Finland includes media literacy lessons, aimed at safeguarding a precious resource: the truth. Via @aljazeera.com
