Now that "scale is all we need" has predictably faltered...
1. Small AI models often perform better in context.
2. Obsession w bigness has bad consequences, from climate, to power concentration, to research capture.

So what a lot of people don't realize is that their local farmers market requires an application to get a spot. The groups controlling who gets those spots are usually white.
I'm gonna add that structural racism in Ag is why you dont see Black and Brown farmers at markets.
we're here but the table costs + the social bullshit going on behind farmer's markets does not accommodate people who aren't able bodied and white

(Your local farmers market that you adore so much is full of fascists. I'm sorry you had to find out this way.)

Some folks are suggesting that the alt text field can be used to get around the 300 character limit on Bluesky, as alt text here has a much higher character limit. This is terrible advice, and if you do this, know you'll confuse and annoy a lot of screen reader users. That's not a good thing to do.

Even after more than a decade of Uber, people don’t seem to get that the venture capitalists only subsidize the “disruptive” tech long enough to throw the displaced workers into permanent precarity, then they raise prices after destroying the overall market. Cab driver suicides are the strategy.

Exactly. It's information-shaped. It's not information.
Someone told me that AI is meant to look/sound convincing without actually being so and it's honestly been the most accurate assessment I've heard about it.
