I reached out to more than three dozen X advertisers, xAI investors, politicians, and government agencies about the growing library of sexualized deepfakes generated with Grok—now including Renee Good. I only heard back from four, with three declining to comment.

Why isn't there a bigger Grok boycott?
Advertisers, politicians, and investors are still all-in on X, despite a sexual abuse crisis.

I used to think X had no public utility but it is developing into some sort of monument to billionaire hubris. It's a living museum of paranoiac mania, a Grey Gardens situation.

there are endless headlines about "grok apologizes" or "grok says it will be fixed" after it generated CSAM using pictures of minors and zero headlines about "grok being shut down" or "musk and xAI in big legal trouble" and I think something fundamental has broken here

Fritz Lang's Metropolis was set in the dystopian future of...*checks notes*...2026 and was centred around a worker uprising caused by a malicious AI and its mad creator.
Happy New Year!

The “ableist” accusation from gAI boosters pisses me off so much. You know what’s really ableist? Telling my students they can’t possibly engage with difficult (or any!) text without the help of gAI. They prey on students’ crises of conference in a way that is truly disgusting.

"Hiring the best people."
Republican Senator Mike Rounds said Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a call to senators, confirmed the so-called 28-point “peace plan” was actually a Russian wishlist and is “not the administration’s position”. Nor is there any threat to cut off weapons or intelligence to Ukraine.

There was something bleak and dark in his tone. It was like watching the little girl in The Exorcist. It was like a crack opened and, just for a moment, we caught a glimpse of the abyss.
I don't know why the "Piggy" thing is bothering me so much. It's one more unforgivable thing in a list of 20,000 unforgivable things, but I've been mad about it for like 12 straight hours.

My child, who is entering her third year of university for a Game Design degree, informs me that she has a class that is just Dungeons & Dragons in the fall and I am thrilled for her and not jealous at all.

Cool seeing the Toronto Star uncritically publishing wire copy that frames ethnic cleansing proposals as Netanyahu saying he'll "allow Palestinians to leave"

DHS is recruiting using a not-so-subtle reference to a 1978 book from white nationalist William Gayley Simpson, Which Way Western Man?

Simpson's book was released under an imprint associated with the National Alliance, founded by Turner Diaries author William Luther Pierce.

Going to see Chris Flemming in Toronto with my daughter tonight and, while I have double-checked every bus and train connection I have to make, because that shit stresses me out, I remembered when I was her age and needed to go anywhere, I would just hitchhike and sometimes I miss that young idiot.

Received a developer email from Google informing me that I can migrate the bonkers amount of reCAPTCHA keys I am responsible for to Google Cloud Console where I will have access to "Enterprise-grade dashboarding". FINALLY I can dashboard at an enterprise grade. This is the future we were promised.

My daughter, Ainsley, has started taking commissions for pet portrait paintings and I think she's pretty great at it.

Borders are an illusion made by those in power claiming us as property and apart of their devouring machine of consumption. The enemy is not the people crossing those borders but the ones who made them to maintain power.
