Yesterday I attended the first major protest against AI data centres in Vancouver. There was a solid turnout, more than I expected for an event organized by a teen who'd never run a protest and just put out some Instagram posts and physical posters on a few main streets. At least 300, maybe over 400 people? I'm trying to be conservative in my guesses.<br><br>Speaking to the crowd, the top concerns were the social and cultural effects of AI (misinformation, disconnection, undermining the arts), then environmental concerns (Vancouver is already under water restrictions due to drought; fossil fuel buildup for AI; etc), then prioritization (why is money and space going to this instead of housing, healthcare, etc). A few other topics came up less often, like economic effects.<br><br>The group shut down traffic on two of Vancouver's biggest streets, Granville and Broadway, including the Granville Street Bridge. They also passed through Granville Island, one of the most-visited tourist destinations in Canada.<br><br><a href="/tags/cdnpoli/" rel="tag">#cdnpoli</a> <a href="/tags/canada/" rel="tag">#canada</a> <a href="/tags/vancouver/" rel="tag">#vancouver</a> <a href="/tags/britishcolumbia/" rel="tag">#britishcolumbia</a> <a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#ai</a> <a href="/tags/noai/" rel="tag">#noai</a> <a href="/tags/datacenter/" rel="tag">#datacenter</a> <a href="/tags/protest/" rel="tag">#protest</a> <a href="/tags/protestsign/" rel="tag">#protestsign</a> <a href="/tags/telus/" rel="tag">#telus</a>

This is a bit niche, but today I noticed the "Local REST API" plugin for <a href="https://obsidian.md" rel="nofollow">Obsidian</a> is now the "Local REST API with MCP" plugin. MCP, short for Model Context Protocol, is an LLM coding agent thing. "Local REST API" previously served a REST endpoint that let other apps, notably browser plugins, interact with your Obsidian vault. It's useful: for instance, there's a browser plugin that allows you to download a copy of any web page and stash it in your vault using the REST API this plugin serves.<br><br>I created an issue on the plugin's GitHub about removing the MCP functionality into a separate plugin, and the maintainer immediately converted it into a discussion, which is here: <a href="https://github.com/coddingtonbear/obsidian-local-rest-api/discussions/272" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="github.com/coddingtonbear/obsidian-local-rest-api/discussions/272"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/coddingtonbear/obsi</span><span class="invisible">dian-local-rest-api/discussions/272</span></a><br><br>I'm getting the impression from all the LLM-related discussions and commits that this is a lost cause and I'll probably have to fork this plugin if I want an MCP-free version of it. Looks like they took up slop coding earlier this year too, which is another area of concern.<br><br><a href="/tags/ai/" rel="tag">#AI</a> <a href="/tags/genai/" rel="tag">#GenAI</a> <a href="/tags/generativeai/" rel="tag">#GenerativeAI</a> <a href="/tags/agenticai/" rel="tag">#AgenticAI</a> <a href="/tags/llm/" rel="tag">#LLM</a> <a href="/tags/claude/" rel="tag">#Claude</a> <a href="/tags/copilot/" rel="tag">#Copilot</a> <a href="/tags/aipoisoned/" rel="tag">#AIPoisoned</a> <a href="/tags/noai/" rel="tag">#NoAI</a> <a href="/tags/obsidian/" rel="tag">#Obsidian</a> <a href="/tags/mcp/" rel="tag">#MCP</a> <a href="/tags/rest/" rel="tag">#REST</a> <a href="/tags/api/" rel="tag">#API</a><br>
