Leftism doesn't mean "I get other people's labor for free because I'm poor" and Capitalism isn't a synonym for "selling things." At this rate, online leftists are going to polarize themselves into fighting wars for Anthropic and OpenAI bc they've "nationalized art."
Just saw someone claim that authors who want to be paid for their work are "class traitors" because we "only let the wealthy" read our books, and I think I need to go into the woods to scream into the night for a bit.

It's so interesting that the AI boosters have popped up asking if Bluesky is ready to accept the good word of prophet Sam Altman yet, at the EXACT time that the timeline is lit up with the "OpenAI says they can't be blamed for driving a teen to suicide because the TOS says you can't kill yourself"

AI is a very general term, you have to be more specific. Do you mean the AI that stole my copyright, the chatbot causing teen suicide and psychosis, the deepfake porn of women without their consent, the bots driving political division or the ones polluting communities and driving electric bills up?

Like, the adversarial play that D&D4E and its imitators are built on only works because the rules are sufficiently rigorous that the GM rarely ever NEEDS to interpret, and is thus free to assume the role of an opposing player and do their level best to kill the party off when hostilities break out.

The downside to D&D4E being so hugely influential in the indie RPG sphere in spite of Hasbro's best efforts to kill is that we've now got a whole new species of fantasy heartbreaker where the problem isn't a failure of imagination, but the fact that the author can't do technical writing for shit.

I've been saying this since LLMs first started gaining traction - their entire model of "intelligence" is based on outdated neurological theories which have BEEN outdated for a long time, and which they cling to despite their obvious falseness because they imply making AGI is easier than the reality
I’ve been running around asking tech execs and academics if language was the same as intelligence for over a year now - and, well, it isn’t. @benjaminjriley.bsky.social explains how the bubble is built on ignoring cutting-edge research into the science of thought www.theverge.com/ai-artificia...

You could argue that, in the interests of accuracy, editorial policy should dictate that when prominent "gender critical" people are quoted, they should be described thusly:
- "<GC name>, a middle-aged woman with no relevant qualifications or expertise and an obsession with other people's bits"
- "<GC name>, a middle-aged woman with no relevant qualifications or expertise and an obsession with other people's bits"
To any of my cis followers who might be wondering what's wrong with the BBC's phrasing...
- "biological male" is deliberate misgendering
- it also implies that trans people are somehow being deceptive, because "biology"
- no trans person "identifies as" *anything*. We just *are*
Hope that helps.

It looks like that BBC page has been updated in the last few minutes, so that's no longer the last sentence. I think part of it has been moved to this paragraph in the middle of the article, and the age is no longer mentioned:
