How long is this ridiculous speech gonna go on for?

"Grok is not an anomaly; it is a mirror. It reflects, with algorithmic fidelity, the intellectual and moral bankruptcy of the ideology it was designed to serve."

Because then people would have to confront their hypocritical belief system. #veganfortheanimals

Congratulations on such a fantastic achievement. So well deserved and I look forward to reading 🥳🥳

Great to hear from a tech company talking actual sense about privacy, surveillance and security with relation to AI. Also love how she’s refers to “while our brain is in a jar”!!!

“While nobody will escape AI, only a few will prosper under it,” writes ‪@kevindeliban.bsky.social. “This current dynamic suggests that the technology’s underlying purpose is to entrench inequality and reinforce existing power dynamics.” www.techpolicy.press/austerity-in...

“In shocking news” 🗞️ tech companies launch new AI products without consideration of societal consequences!

Using big LLMs for basic queries is 'like turning on stadium floodlights to look for your keys' - this is good on the AI environmental questions.

An astonishing statistic. And the fact that we created a world where that is virtually logistically impossible is a real detriment and very sad.

Electricity demand from data centres is set to more than double to nearly 950TWh by 2030 – and AI is the primary driver, finds the IEA in its latest report.

‘More water is needed because “climate change will lead to an increase in global temperatures and the frequency of extreme weather events, including heat waves”, Amazon wrote in its application.’…

Basically, we need more 💧 to put out the 🔥 , cause I’ve added more 🔥 to the 🔥

We need tech leaders and tech industries that actively engage with the problems their industries are causing. What is the point of these (extractive) technologies if the planet and its inhabitants are dead??

Was just talking about this yesterday, how will this new business model work? Do businesses pay to be mentioned in the AI summary??

I've just signed this petition protesting Meta's theft of Irish writing, which they've used to build their AI tool. Will you sign too? my.uplift.ie/petitions/pr...

Daily reminder from Theo, that rest is important. Many argue it’s an act of resistance 🤩

Exactly that. But we need to protect individuals whose lively-hood relies on copyright material, especially in terms of creative works.

We either care about copyright or we don’t care. Many of us will remember Aaron Swartz who downloaded academic journals & as a result was prosecuted, the stress of which led him to take his own life. The hypocrisy of current political leaders to just downplay this now for AI should make us angry 😡

Open knowledge is being ransacked by AI bots 🤖 Like all similar activities, companies generate revenue through AI will happily take but never give back! Ideologically the whole AI system is f**ked

We are seeking to appoint a Postdoctoral Researcher to work on developing a justice-oriented audit framework synthesising computational methods, theories of justice, and existing regulations to premeditatively focus audits towards meaningful accountability. www.adaptcentre.ie/careers/post...

The world can be sh**, so be like Theo, enjoy a (doggy) ice cream on a sunny day 🤩
