Organized labour fella.

All AI is stolen labour and work until proven otherwise. Reject it in all forms.

In 2021 I asked the Canadian government how much it was spending fighting First Nations in court - one access-to-info request specifying four cases. Today they got back to me.

Which is better, the $38,000 free coffee at the car dealership, or the $450 free coffee at the pet hospital?

Keep in mind you get to have the pet one at 4 am

this field biologist does a great job highlighting the insidiousness of AI editing

these one-click AI edit buttons are incredibly appealing to many photographers, amateurs and professionals alike, and are framed as innocuous

this is worth sharing and educating people about

I have not watched this closely or with sound but just 1 thing I noted:
okay so the guy who gets a mixer full of glop in his face clearly flinches a split second beforehand. Where have we seen this? Yes, all those engagement farm videos that are staged.
So we're at like Tier 7 slop at this point
McDonald's has released an AI-generated Christmas ad

The studio behind it says they 'hardly slept' for several weeks while writing AI prompts and refining the shots — 'AI didn't make this film. We did'

Does anyone know of any other examples of where a video synchs perfectly to other audio, like the This Is America video clip set to Call Me Maybe?

I'm not sure it's in the self interest of America's tech bro billionaires to suggest that we bring back public executions to punish the most destructive people in our society.
A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.

“It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale.

This is where Silicon Valley authoritarianism is heading:

You have been told to be calm, to maintain the faith, and to be loyal to the party for close to 20 years and now they can’t even properly condemn serial murder in the ocean nor the wildcat internment camps here at home. You don’t even know if they’ll let you vaccinate your own kids a year from now.

This is the "statement" just put out by the BC Conservatives. Yes, it really does look like that.

The United States and Canada have some unbelievably beautiful national parks, and if you want to visit them as an international tourist next year, one country will charge you extra, while the other will offer free admission.
