Toronto-area. Transfemme. Like a McDonald's breakfast sandwich, I'm warm, soft, a bit cheesy, and have one freshly cracked egg.

And why? There's no reason for this. My profession was full-time until mergers and AI began making my work "obsolete", except it's not even a GOOD replacement for human beings. AI can't even caption sound effects for the deaf and hard-of-hearing, which is half the fucking point of closed captions.

The reason we got and cannot get rid of Trump is that America is a business and he is a cash cow for way way way too many people including his ostensible opponents. He’s the Beatles of news, and that is an indicator that the news itself is broken.

If someone felt like opening a can of worms I honestly believe AI captions are bad enough people could start suing streaming companies under the ADA.

Like if it was "We're making a matter replicator to feed all humanity" or "We're building a computer to calculate how to deflect a meteor" or something, I'd be on board.
But this is "Fuck you we're ruining stock of consumer goods to make a machine that lies and can't do math."

100%. I can't with this "gotta hand it to MTG" crap. Part of being invited into "the tent" is to actually atone for and work to undo the damage and harm you've done to everyone else in the tent first.
None of this "boo hoo the fires I started burned me" sympathy.

If you weren't familiar with who Marjorie Taylor Greene was before she ran for office, look it up. She was always crazy, and she spent most of the years post 2016 harassing Parkland survivors and left wing people with deranged and racist conspiracy theories.
