🧵 One of my goals coming into this year was to insert more looseness into my work, to allow muscle weakness and spasms and exhaustion to become part of my art instead of fighting against it.

It's a personal embracing, but it's also an unintended protest against generative AI, which can't do this.

It’s a “put on my exoskeleton” kinda day today as I uncontrollably shapeshift into an invertebrate (complimentary) thanks to my mutated connective tissue (derogatory) 🪲

By reposting articles ai failures to signing & sharing petitions against ai, to using different alternative website, to using Linux & not using any tech made those cults, & most of talking about in public & writing studies on in my sociology class. This fight is worth doing every step of the way.

Oh my god i did a master study of this Manga I love how they the hatching of the lines for texture & shadowing... i literally hate what those tech cults did to his work & other, those fuckheads unknowingly made the worse mistakes of their life because i been fight against in everyway i can.

My latest newsletter is about how the generative AI industry made us fear the wrong things.

AGI won't kill us all, and AI won't take our jobs. But it'll still harm us.

Generative AI a paper tiger, with a real tiger behind it.

Okay So i couldn't find the user who did the research my apologies for that..
icarus12wq-exq.bsky.social
And heres the ai code part she basically promoting it you know the same that every pain in ass does. But people have saying that actually her alternative account one user did some digging & concluded that it either or someone close to her in some way i will find that for you

Can't code?

I'd say ask a friend, but at the rate AI is improving, maybe you won't even need to. Someone built a functional Appview with replit overnight.

The Appview code should have everything blueskys appview does, the only problem it is running into is getting the right numbers for database connections and pooling.

Basically what I gather is that Jay the ceo of bluesky was following a racist a user called łink called her out for that said user on banned off bluesky others called her out she did a Elon move of crashing out & posting about it.

2.
Still use it unless things get worse like more policy changes that don't allows to talk on topic or post our art.. more discoveries that bluesky staff are worse than we once thought & definitely if our data is going to train for their ai/llm crap

This sucks because bluesky was a good alternative social media site for people to get away for Twitter & other big social media sites especially the transgender community who help make this site safe in the early days here for what I remember when researching bluesky if it was a safe site to join.

California has now banned algorithmic price fixing.

The state has outlawed the practice of landlords colluding to raise prices using rental software and AI.

This is a huge victory for renters in the biggest state in the country.

I haven't been able to fill any of my three slots I need to fill, I am dropping these down to 50$ USD but that's truly the lowest I can go!

hey folks, I am opening up some slots to raise funds to pay my rent. Get a cute custom model for 100$ USD. My freelance client has completely ghosted me and I am completely screwed. DM if you are interested and please share.

Wow, the unhinged line of thinking here. "We're losing money so we're gonna share revenue with copyright holders"

THAT IS GOING TO COST YOU MORE MONEY. Never mind the rightsholders include major studios historically VERY protective of how their IP is used contextually.

i think we are going to find out at some point these guys invented cocaine 2 and have been on it all along
Buried in Altman's post is the real story: "People are generating much more than we expected per user," using massive compute resources on content that's often being generated for very small audiences (it is, after all, a social media app). OpenAl will "have to somehow make money for video generation," Altman wrote. Translation: Sora is burning through compute costs with no offsetting revenue.
Altman floated a potential solution: "We are going to try sharing some of this revenue with rightsholders who want their characters generated by users." The idea-perhaps similar to You Tube's ad-monetization program for videos that include copyrighted material
-would give studios a financial incentive to opt in.
"The exact model will take some trial and error to figure out," Altman acknowledged, "but we plan to start very soon."

Author and filmmaker Justine Bateman on generative AI
"They're trying to convince people they can't do the things they've been doing easily for years - to write emails, to write a presentation. Your daughter wants you to make up a bedtime story about puppies - to write that for you." We will get to the point, she says with a grim laugh, "that you will essentially become just a skin bag of organs and bones, nothing else. You won't know anything and you will be told repeatedly that you can't do it, which is the opposite of what life has to offer. Capitulating all kinds of decisions like where to go on vacation, what to wear today, who to date, what to eat.
People are already doing this. You won't have to process grief, because you'll have uploaded photos and voice messages from your mother who just died, and then she can talk to you via AI video call every day. One of the ways it's going to destroy humans, long before there's a nuclear disaster, is going to be the emotional hollowing-out of people." - author and filmmaker Justine Bateman from a piece by Emine Saner for the Guardian

There are so MANY evidence shown that ai code sucks so hard that it causes literally more negatives than positives in any area.
