This. I've been working with "machine learning" since before the current AI-fever and it's an invaluable tool in science and engineering.
LLMs and GenAI are being misused in a criminally negligent way and using misplaced legitimacy to do it, and that misdirect cannot be allowed to continue.

Journalist challenge: Use “Machine Learning” when you mean machine learning and “LLM” when you mean LLM. Ditch “AI” as a catch-all term, it’s not useful for readers and it helps companies trying to confuse the public by obscuring the roles played by different technologies. 🧪

Hundreds of Starbucks baristas and labor organizers blockaded Starbucks' largest distribution center in York, Pennsylvania, halting distribution of syrups, coffee beans, and other supplies to the entire northeast.
This escalation is part of @sbworkersunited.org's ongoing strike.

Camden is an underfunded school in North Minneapolis, and they weren’t able to put on a fall play this year due to lack of funding. Camden Drama Club is a very important space for queer kids who don’t have a lot of safe spaces in their lives, and they need to raise funds to continue. Can you help?
Today is Give to the Max day, & did u know MPS does not fund the arts, like theater. Camden Drama Club exists due to generous donations from ppl like u, and we have a $7,000 need to cover in order to continue to provide the best award-winning high school theater: www.givemn.org/organization...

Sounds like somebody doesn't like having to pay all those West Indians and Filipinos what they are worth!

Nursing is no longer counted as a 'professional degree' by Trump admin
The Department of Education has excluded nursing as a "professional degree" program as it implements various changes to student loans.

It’s transgender day of remembrance, I’ve lost too many sisters this year.
It’s days like today where this old tweet from weedcatholic comes to mind.
You *have* to live, you can scream you can cry, but you gotta live.

those of us laid off from Teen Vogue were really fortunate to complete our fundraising goal — the laid-off staffers at VIBE deserve the same support, as Black media outlets and journalists continue to be targeted and discriminated against in “austerity” measures
It was announced on October 16, 2025 that VIBE was "joining forces" with Rolling Stone. As a result, the majority of VIBE employees were laid off. If you have the means to give, this team could use the support! www.gofundme.com/f/support-vi...

One way I have found to mourn someone is to set up a monthly sustaining donation to a mutual aid effort they cared about. If you can join me in honoring Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social with a sustaining donation today, please do. Thank you Alice, and I will not let the bastards grind me down.

AI's biggest crime is targeting our whimsy specifically, no longer will we approach cute animals videos with curiosity and love in our hearts but calculated skepticism 😔
I hate that AI has made me approach cute animal videos with an air of suspicion. I resent having to harden my heart to the possibility of an unlikely friendship between a very large dog and a very small one

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY
There has been a noticeable reticence in left and liberal circles to voice full-throated support for pornography, even as it's become increasingly clear what the open end goals of the censorship movement are
In a lot of ways other leftists chose this path folks. They shrugged and didn’t care when Patreon banned a ton of hypnosis and TF creators, or when YouTube started their ASMR crackdown. Now it’s coming for queer porn creators, more and more. Who will stand up?

Going serious.
Homeland 🇵🇭 was devastated by back-to-back typhoon which destroyed a lot of homes and displaced families.
I am offering $10+ sketches. All profits will be donated to ChildHope Philippines, a local org providing basic needs to street children, the most vulnerable population rn
