I understand that legally OpenAI can’t admit that they didn’t know or predict this would happen but they can’t cite “misuse” of a wholly new technology that they popularized and kept the internal workings of secret. I hope they lose this badly www.theverge.com/news/831207/...
OpenAI denies liability in teen suicide lawsuit, cites ‘misuse’ of ChatGPT
The case is ongoing.

Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads.⚡ My new piece for Back to Know Future, a Back to the Future Halloween themed art show hosted by Know Future Gallery. It was a blast painting Christopher Lloyd as a spooky Doc Emmett Brown.

the political policy cure for “male loneliness” is

- more time to hang with the fellas (4 day work week)

- more money to spend with the fellas (higher wages)

- more things to do with the fellas (taxing the rich and building 3rd spaces)

This is great. Proof that good reporting, targeted boycotts (@bdsmovement.bsky.social), and keeping the conversation going work.

Rent shouldn’t be so high anywhere that when one of the few subsidized spaces has to be replaced, it nearly ruins the lives of the people who lived there in the interim. I’ll never understand why Kelowna is so overpriced. www.castanet.net/news/Kelowna...

Genuinely curious what they need to drop the “apparently” here. The man has one of the most distinctive signatures ever and he shows it off constantly
Democrats on the House Oversight Committee released an image of a sexually suggestive note and drawing apparently bearing President Trump’s signature, taken from a 2003 book celebrating the 50th birthday of Jeffrey Epstein. Trump has insisted he never wrote such a note. nyti.ms/46kvJmW

Trump is turning international students against the US, but Canada is completely missing the opportunity because we’ve decided to blame immigrants, and specifically international students, for social problems to distract from capitalist profiteering.

Labour Day feels so divorced from its origins I thought it was celebrating people giving birth up until a few years ago. So, yes, we need a stronger labour movement!!! Unionize! It rocks!!!
A reminder that if we hope to ever rebuild an economy that works for everyone, we need a much stronger labor movement.
