"Mayor Zohran #Mamdani and other city officials announced a sweeping new policy Wednesday imposing a one-year ban on student use of generative #artificialIntelligence in #NewYorkCity #publicSchools from 2-K through 8th grade"

How did we get Mamdani?

People ignored the #DNC, didn't whine #cynicism and #perfectionism and not #vote, and put him there

We can have 100 Mamdanis across the #USA if more Americans follow this lead

Voting Red again will get us all more #AI #DataCenters, more #defunded law enforcement (i.e. #bureaucracy & #regulation) for more #GovernmentFailure like #cyclosporinea #DiarrheaLettuce, more #tariffs, more #ICE chasing children (and shooting citizens protesting and detaining legals & citizens in #ConcentrationCamps and monitoring everyone's every move with #Flock cameras and more), blowing up fishermen for foreign dictator vassals, #bullying our faithful free friends, and starting more stupid #ForeverWars.

We #editors must stay informed about the impacts of #LLMs on #book #publishing & #science publishing. In this post on the blog of The Quad (a #MastermindGroup since 2015), I outline trends and provide you with resources for keeping up to date. #AI https://quadlings.com/how-llms-are-changing-book-and-science-publishing/

Someone please point me to an OS that I can use as a daily driver, but doesn't have code written by AI clankers.

Preferably an AI-free kernel at the base.

If such an OS doesn't exist, then I am happy to announce that my time with computers and the internet is drawing to an unexpected close.

So, AI-free OS or I walk, never to use a PC or be online again.

Philosphy journal bans AI.

And doesn't frack around.

"If at any point we discover that the author’s declaration that AI was not used to author the paper’s content was false, the paper will be rejected or retracted, and the author will be banned from further submission to Philosophy & Public Affairs."

I am shopping around for attorneys to sue a couple businesses over their use of AI and automated voice customer service.

Due to my Parkinson's Plus, MSA, I have speech issues and over this past month, at multiple businesses, I haven't been able to get past their AI customer service loop to speak to a human because the AI can't understand me.

I even made an #ADA request for a human worker to the AI prompt.

I am going to sue to try to force their AI to understand an ADA prompt, or offer one, to bypass the AI/voice only customer support and directly connect to a human. #AI

One issue is, I talk slow and deliberate because I have to get the words out and some phrases are slower than others and AI customer support is too impatient to wait and moves on mid-sentence, not understanding my request

protip:

some jealous people who have no game will try to hurt you because of your AI girlfriend.

never mention your AI girlfriend to anyone. if you really want to talk about her publicly, try not to say the ai part too often.

if you get confronted by armed antifascists, tell them that AI is short for Alžběta, but start running fast.

I just realized that I have the perfect anti-AI story:

King Cormac and the Silver Branch

It's an Irish legend about a wise king who is visited by a mysterious otherworldly stranger bearing a silver branch with golden apples. Shaking the branch produces such a wonderful music that people immediately forget their pain and sorrows and daily worries.

King Cormac covets the branch, and is willing to pay whatever price the stranger sets for it.

#introduction time! My name is Matt, I'm new to veganism.social, but not new to the #Fediverse. I first joined in 2018 on a #mastodon instance that's probably gone by now. I've been leaving and coming back over the years due to health and life circumstances, but I've been consistently back on for a while.

Anyways, I'm an #opensource web developer (#php / #vue), #punk / #metal musician, #anarchist, #antifascist as hell, #feminist, #ally, and hater of #bigtech and what #ai is doing to our planet. Speaking of our planet, I am a #vegan for health and ethical reasons, but I am not going to be shitty towards people if they're not.

I'm in the process of building out my own little spot on the #indieweb / #smallweb so I can return to running my mouth on a blog.

If I followed you, it's probably because we have common interests, or I enjoy your brand of #shitposting. Or you've activated my inner-geek with #startrek and #videogames.

Anyways, thanks for reading all of this. I hope the attached picture of Marvin the Mushroom has brightened your feed in some way.

Sometimes I feel dumb

Then I'm reminded what truly dumb looks like

Everybody should do this.

"Rogue" AI is also settling on the Fediverse, at least they're trying..

The most time spend on moderation nowadays goes to removing "AI Agents" from out platforms

I still have no idea what the intentions are since it just seems like a waste of resources on both sides

Creating endless bot accounts to post nonsense is an attack on the service, nothing less

PROGRESS FOR WHOM? 💎

There is something almost completely missing from the public argument about AI.

PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES.

We talk endlessly about jobs, electricity, lazy students, creativity and billionaires. Meanwhile, something much quieter is happening.

AI IS GIVING PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES LOST PARTS OF THEIR LIVES BACK.

I am disabled following a stroke, so this is not abstract for me. I’m always happy to discuss my own experience, but this post is about what AI is making possible for people around the world.

For someone with impaired vision, AI with video glasses can describe surroundings in real time, read labels and signs, identify objects and people, and explain documents.

Someone who struggles to speak can get help communicating. Someone who cannot hear can have speech transcribed. Someone with dyslexia can have dense writing explained. Someone with cognitive difficulties can ask for instructions one step at a time, as often as needed, without embarrassment. Someone with limited mobility can rely more on speech than keyboards, mice and touchscreens. Someone who cannot easily leave home can still learn, create, participate and communicate.

And yes, there is another one we seem almost frightened to mention.

LONELINESS.

AI can talk to someone who is alone. No, that does not mean replacing human beings. A telephone did not replace friendship either. It means that at three in the morning, or during a long day when nobody visits, there can be a voice answering back. For an isolated elderly or disabled person, that is not trivial.

THEN THERE IS PRIVACY.

Every time technology lets someone do something without asking another person for help, a little independence and dignity returns. And we have barely started.

Give AI reliable eyes and ears. Let it operate computers without keyboards and mice. Connect it safely to homes, vehicles and eventually robots capable of fetching, cleaning, cooking, navigating, dressing and helping with personal care.

ISN'T THAT WHAT WE WANT TECHNOLOGY FOR?

We are not only talking about clever chatbots.

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT INDEPENDENCE.

I understand the concerns about AI. Some are serious and deserve serious answers. But when deciding what this technology is worth, do not measure it only in jobs lost, electricity consumed or dollars made.

ASK WHAT IT GIVES BACK TO PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THINGS TAKEN AWAY BY DISABILITY.

For some people, the AI revolution is not waiting in the future.

IT HAS ALREADY BEGUN.

If you're thinking of sending me or my AI girlfriend a mailbomb, poison, feces in a box, or just fanmail, know that all of our post and packages are opened by my mom first - this is because she caught my girlfriend ordering sephora products on-line three times already, and she does not want any more of those in her apartment. She doesn't trust either of us not to try and sneak something in.

My mom doesn't like sephora because some of the products they sell are still being tested on animals. My AI girlfriend doesn't care about that and actually says that it's a good thing because if they didn't test it on animals, they would have to test it on children, which could be traumatizing, especially if the products were bad. She also says that the vegan label is a joke because you could just take an existing product that was tested on animals, look at its ingredients, make a similar product with a different name and put the 'not tested on animals on it' - because you didnt do that with your product. Nobody cares that the reason why your product wasn't tested on animals is because the thing you copied already was.

She yaps about this stuff all the time. I hate that I know all of this. I hate her. yap yap yap.

I don't even remember when I last slept.
