The AI bubble looks fit to burst, Bank of America director says.

Bank of America strategist warns AI bubble mirrors dot-com peak — recommends bonds and defensive stocks as 'post-bubble roadmap'

Another great story about the impact of AI with no mention to it in the headline of the story:

In South Korea a Starbucks marketing campaign is created using AI and executives don't even bother to open the email attachments to check the proposals. The campaign was published on the date of a pro-democracy protesters massacre calling it Tank Day and using slogans clearly drawing from the deadly military attack, which felt deeply unrespectful to the victims. The AI most likely learned that from far-right forums like Ilbe where mocking the victims is common.

They cancelled the campaign hours after publishing it but it was too late, the CEO has been sacked, card payments went down a 26%, refunds haven been requested from prepaid cards, police is investigating and Starbucks asked costumers to refrain from directing their anger to staff.

FOLKS! to properly ride this AI hatewave:

1. connect the dots with another big bust, ―bombing Iran― and the OPEC countries aggressively funding techbros to #aislop the USA

2. tell folks of all the aislopping techbros paying politicians to pass #ageVerification laws so they can use that info for their AI #stalkerware

the Ai hatearade is a rare moment of clarity among USA’s hegemonic majority.

this *is* the #antifa angle that could turn your families from the MAGA brink. USE IT.

but #aislop is inevitable, right?!?!?

ACM will no longer require disclosure of the use of #generativeAI in writing papers.... an absolutely terrible change by the @ACM Publications Board to the Policy on Authorship.

Yes, this will give ACM more papers. No, the ideology of "number go up" productivism is not the path to responsible, ecological or ethical computing, but to irrelevance. #AIslop

so, i went looking for what Jensen Huang actually said about circular financing; and it is much, much worse: https://stockanalysis.com/stocks/nvda/transcripts/740955-goldman-sachs-communacopia-technology-conference-2026/

if this is what Huang actually said at that Goldman Sachs conference, it explains #aislop hallucinations. he spins a history of computers as if he never used one to make anything, not even to write a memo. 🧵…

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the AI business model.

And here's how they're pitching their slop to us.

So it never occurred to Google that encouraging people to deepfake Google Earth images with AI was a terrible idea?

How are these people not fired on the spot for ideas like this, let alone allowed to bring such an obviously problematic “feature” to production? It’s bonkers.

“Hey, what if we add a feature that makes everyone question the output of one of our flagship products while also enabling internet trolls?”

“Great idea Carl!”

I’m offline enjoying a social media break, but just in case you missed it, this really resonated with a lot of people. The Colonization of Confidence., Sightless Scribbles https://sightlessscribbles.com/the-colonization-of-confidence/ #AI #AISlop #AIHype #LLM #Blog #Blogging #Writing #Author

I don’t know how else to say that if you are against using any LLM, then you should stop using AI checkers of any sort. Not only are they just another tool to slurp up text, but every bit of writing with common words and phrases will be flagged as generated when it’s not because every LLM has common words and phrases in its training data. Lastly, every one of these checkers is designed to eventually get you to pay the tech company money so they can pretend to make your writing more human. They do not work the way you assume.

I know this is radical but we may just have to trust artists! I know, what a shock.

Besides, these AI losers can't shut the fuck up about using their generator so it really isn't hard to find people that use these things if you really wanna point the finger at someone.

❝ MIT researchers last year hooked a group of students up to EEGs to study their brain activity while writing essays. Some of them were allowed to use the internet to conduct research, while others were told to use AI. Not only did the AI cohort have far less ability to recall what they wrote when asked about it later, but they also showed far less brain activity, suggesting that relying on #AI simply doesn’t lead to better learning.  https://www.theregister.com/ai-and-ml/2026/08/04/openai-wants-teachers-and-profs-to-foist-their-work-off-on-chatgpt/5283064

I need to get off Google Docs. It's where I've been doing my writing for years. As of this week, it's got AI nonsense all over the damned place. No, I don't want AI to even out my writing. How do I disable this shit?

How do I get all my writing to an AI-free program without ripping out my hair?

I want to be able to access my documents across different devices. How can I do this?

I am not a programmer.

🧵 Thread time!
It’s been a while, so bear with me.

My expertise in this field is so out of date it’s medieval, but I decided to carry out an experiment on one of the most popular acts of creative fraud: using #AI.

I used the popular AI platform, Suno to create a complete song, and to be honest, I was shocked by the result.

So before I reveal my wonderful #Frankenstein, here’s a bit of background.

❝ You have to pay attention to what they say in the news cycles. When they say that #AI can cause an existential risk, they also say that AI can stop climate change, bring us world peace, and eradicate poverty.

AI can do all of these things because it’s powerful. It can bring us utopia… what you’re speaking to, first of all, is to your investors. ❞

so i have questions about #Debian:

1. are members ONLY developers?

2. only developers argued for/against #LLM #AI?

devs are the last people who should be involved in discussions about the ethics and legality of software. ie:

just reckoned, when a court recently decided you can't claim #copyright on #aislop, it didn't occur to me it means both closed and open copyright.

so, if using #LLMs trained on works stolen or added without consent removes any claims of #FLOSS: what is Debian now?
