I find it depressing that so many people seem determined to outsource their basic brain functions. Like WHY ARE YOU EVEN ALIVE IF THAT'S HOW LITTLE YOU THINK ABOUT EXISTENCE
I find Gmail’s new “write this for me” feature deeply sinister. They’re trying to convince you that you are dumb and helpless. Don’t let them steal your ability to formulate thoughts and communicate. You were capable of writing an email in 2022 and you’re capable now.

ICYMI, Gai*man is slinking out of the shadows and posting again, trying to scuttle his way back into the public's good graces.

Please take care of yourselves, believe women, believe survivors, and fuck that guy.

Ein Lob auf den Lokaljournalismus.
TV Schwerin hat die Spitzenkandidatin der AfD für die Schweriner Bürgermeisterwahl im Vorgespräch mit seiner Recherche so verunsichert, dass sie Interview nicht mehr führen wollte.
Es geht um ihre frühere Tätigkeit. 1/2

I wonder if the New York Times will go after any of the prominent academics in the Epstein files for being rapists as hard as they went after Claudine Gay for being kind of sloppy with citations in her graduate thesis.

If not, why not?
Here’s Duke behavioral economist Dan Ariely asking Jeffrey Epstein for “the name and email of the redhead that was here with you.” This is four years after Epstein’s 2008 conviction for procuring a child for prostitution.

Remember, children, hate-watching is just as good as any other viewing statistics to streaming companies.

Just wait for 3rd party clips of the AI show, don’t watch out of morbid curiosity. Love and hate are identical to internet companies, indifference is what they fear

Die #Bundesregierung muss beim #Klimaschutz nachliefern. Das entschied heute das #Bundesverwaltungsgericht in Leipzig – das #Klimaprogramm 2023 reicht nicht aus. Damit blieb auch die Revision der Bundesregierung erfolglos: Die Klagen der #Umweltorganisationen bleiben zulässig.

As Firefox pushes AI on its users, Vivaldi does the complete opposite. Even more reason to try it.

Thing is right, AI has been around for years in various forms and is used effectively for certain jobs in certain places and sectors.

Bullshit LLM AI which everyone keeps forcing onto people is not a fucking vital requirement in general life and should stop being paraded around as such. Fuck off.
BREAKING: Free AI training will be offered to every adult in the UK, with short courses to teach people how to use simple AI tools effectively in the workplace.
