Again, I go back to what I saw from an ex-colleague:
'If you aren't talking about AI, what ARE you talking about?'

Literally anything else.

This is just sad.

Please, just stop sending me AI videos of Dad. Stop believing I wanna see it or that I'll understand, I don't and I won't. If you're just trying to troll me, I've seen way worse, i'll restrict and move on. But please, if you've got any decency, just stop doing this to him and to me, to everyone even, full stop. It's dumb, it's a waste of time and energy, and believe me, it's NOT what he'd want.
To watch the legacies of real people be condensed down to 'this vaguely looks and sounds like them so that's enough,
, just so
other people can churn out horrible TikTok slop puppeteering them is maddening. You're not making art, you're making disgusting, over-processed hotdogs out of the lives of human beings, out of the history of art and music, and then shoving them down someone else's throat hoping they'll give you a little thumbs up and like it.
Gross.

And for the love of EVERYTHING, stop calling it 'the future. Al is just badly recycling and regurgitating the past to be reconsumed. You are taking in the Human Centipede of content, and from the very very end of the line, all while the folks at the front laugh and laugh, consume and consume.

This is an absolutely disgusting and flagrant attempt by the Labour government to suppress the all democratic protests “Police to get broader powers to restrict repeated protests” www.bbc.com/news/article... peaceful protesters should be allowed to have their voices heard until change is made

Police to get broader powers to crack down on repeated protests

The move is not a ban on protests but "about restrictions and conditions", Shabana Mahmood tells the BBC.

Hey Alexa, play Barry White 🥴

The study by Vantage Point listed 30 different Al platforms that respondents claimed to have relationships with.
ChatGPT was the most popular platform for adults to have a relationship with.
Character.ai was next on the list and Amazon's Alexa was third.

Me normally: there’s no god and the Catholic Church has committed and assented some of the most heinous crimes in the last two millennia.

Me the moment some cristo-fascist tries to come for the Pope about protecting the environment and calling him “Mr Pope”:

Jane Goodall, pioneering scientist who first discovered tool-use in chimps, dies at 91. The famed primatologist, conservationist, and world-renowned animal behaviorist was one of the most important scientists of the 20th century.
