"Never spread the lie in the headline" should be a hard rule of 21st century journalism.

Research shows that repeating lies helps to spread them, and people read headlines more than they read stories.
News media has to do better with headlines that present false and unverified public health claims.

my “AI is over” anecdote is that my wife was hired over the summer to write scripts for a big tech company explaining how to use their AI tools and after many rounds of revisions, the latest notes said “we’re finding a lot of AI fatigue among our users” and to remove all references to AI
Anecdotally on twitter seeing a big shift the last few days from every AI slop account saying every other creative field is “over” and they’re in control now to now posting about how nobody likes them and it’s not fair and they’ll persevere and real artists respect and uplift eachother

Dimon on why JPMorgan Chase is not funding WH Ballroom:
We have an issue, which is anything we do, since we do a lot of contracts with governments here and around the world, we have to be very careful how anything is perceived, and also how the next DOJ is going to deal with it.

This holiday season, buy some gifts that will pay a trans artist, not some big corporation. The designs are originals, no AI, lots of themes, eg. animals, music, and abstract art.

If you don't need anything, you can still help @julesclarke.bsky.social through the PayPal link in her profile.

partner is the only one behind the counter at his job who masks. one of his regulars came in and showed the team an AI video he made from a photo of them, and the only one who wasn’t effected by the AI was partner in his mask—as if i needed further proof that many benefits extend from mitigation 😮‍💨

Headline: "AI can replace 11.7% of workforce"

Actual study: Anthropic paid MIT to use a "labor simulation tool" that said 11.7% of TASKS could be done by AI
MIT study finds AI can already replace 11.7% of U.S. workforce
Artificial intelligence can already replace 11.7% of the U.S. labor market, across finance, health care and professional services, according to MIT's study.

This really highlights how much of right wing engagement with our higher education system is about grievance grifting, not any actual desire for education.

For the 50th anniversary of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, I spoke with advocates about how this law is crucial–and the ways in which disability education can be made better as its under attack from the Trump administration at @motherjones.com. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
This disability education law turned 50 today. Disability advocates want more.

your use of diacritics does not exonerate you deciding that a serial predator who LITERALLY CORNERED WOMEN TO MASTURBATE IN FRONT OF THEM can come back in without having done anything beyond laying a little low for a little while
When a cancelled performer reënters the culture, we expect them to offer us a great work, channelling their newfound clarity into the finest art they’ve ever made. With his new comedy show and début novel, has Louis C.K. met the bar?

They hated affirmative action because they believe they’re better and smarter than any non-white person, when in fact they’re utter mediocrities.
