I'll include myself in this, it's a very tempting approach to take. And if you're worried about being dismissed or criticised it's a powerful way to front load your arguments. But it's not activism nor meaningful change if it's just a repetition of how bad things are with no solutions or actions.

Their "product" is Gemini, all other projects are sub-features of Gemini, at this point.
Interesting thread thinking through the business ramifications of Gemini summaries replacing typical SEO dynamics. I have to imagine a triple digit number of people at Google were involved in the decision, and I also can’t really make sense of it since the change damages their product.
Rather than going through the list of results & opening a bunch of links to Politico,TPM, Drudge, etc. you just GET AN AI PARAGRAPH TELLING YOU WHAT ALL OF THOSE SITES ARE SAYING.
..so you never click through to the news sites at all...they never get your page views and their ad sales plummet.

Anyway if we had a functioning government, we would start building public internet infrastructure for search, hosting, archiving, and social media. These tech companies really cannot be our only option anymore

I was a debate kid and what I learned is that the best people at arguing do not believe or care about what they’re saying.
People love to talk about how awful theater kids are, and they’re not wrong, but let’s be real, debate kids have made this country a lot worse

love how private / federal intelligence is now pushed on us harder than after 9/11
TurboTax is about to be integrated into ChatGPT, where customers will be guided through tasks tied to their tax filings or financial profile by the AI chatbot.
TurboTax owner Intuit is also paying OpenAI more than $100 million a year to power AI agents.

One of the biggest issues with the synthetic text extruding machines is that we have well-formed linguistic output with no accountability. Solution: OpenAI should be accountable for everything that comes out of ChatGPT, period. (And likewise for Google with Gemini, etc.)
New on the Mystery AI Hype Theater 3000 newsletter: @deccamuldowney.bsky.social and I write about OpenAI's transparent attempt to shift accountability.

OpenAI Tries to Shift Responsibility to Users
OpenAI is trying to shift the blame for bad legal and medical advice from its chatbot away from the company and onto users. We agree that no chatbot should be used for medical or legal advice.

A lot of people don't understand, or are obtuse about the idea of youth liberation existing alongside protection and guidance because that requires consistent first principles instead of hard, mechanical rules.
leftists who mock youth liberation end up sounding indistinguishable from reactionaries very quickly because opposition to youth liberation *is* reactionary

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

huh, this is basically the same kind of layout joel would later use for Cinematic Titanic.
In 1998, Cartoon Network commissioned MST3K creator (and CtC guest) Joel Hodgson and his brother Jim to create a new intro for SGCTC. 17 were produced, but were never used. Five of them were eventually released as Easter Eggs on the Volume 2 DVD. Models by Screaming Mad George. Paul Feig played SG
