this is hard for me to say, but i wanna be very clear about the level of hatred and disgust i have for ai. i would sooner consume an olive before ever using any generative ai. and if you shill for ai, you have worse taste than an olive.

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

This monster casually spraying a citizen today with pepper spray is a member of the St. Paul Police Dept (SPPD) assisting ICE. Don’t let this news die during Thanksgiving week.

"I asked ChatGPT" should have the same social ramifications as if you said "I just shit my pants."

We have got to collectively help people understand that of course the local* cops are acting as an arm of the machine. That is their purpose.

People need to grow their minds & grieve what they've been conditioned to believe about cops being there to help/serve/protect.

(*wherever you are)

i think some of us (or at least, myself) are to blame for creating a culture where it's sort of treated as a personal failing if you haven't seen/played/listened to the classics, but yeah, this. it's fine to say "idk it"

ppl who "read" by having chatgpt summarize books are cut from the same cloth
My even more unpopular opinion is unless you have personally experienced the thing, you should probably refrain from having an opinion on it.

We need to return to shaming people for parroting YouTube/TikTok with stuff like "When I want your opinion, I'll just find the YouTuber who gave it to you."

Google's AI is now snooping on your emails - here's how to opt out
A new change quietly rolling out allows Google to access your private messages and attachments to train its AI models - likely without your knowledge. Opting out takes just moments.

Gonna be real: I have a critical medication that, with GoodRx, is going to be $700 and I have $50 in my account after pay day. I’m in real need of help to afford any of my meds.
Tipping and supporting me allows me to not only have support while I work with the state to get health care but also means I can continue to care for mixed as a disabled trans person. That includes being able to set aside time to write queer and trans articles.

as long as i am an artist, in whatever capacity i could be, i will always have to adhere to a process that factors in ADHD and depression. and so if my habits seem ridiculous, just know that the alternative is barely creating anything at all
