Resource heavy data centres running models that generated CSAM, assisted suicides and are all trained on stolen material.
The boat is already far too long gone for this type of groupthink bullshit.
Mozilla could have fully revived themselves in being opposition to AI, but another foot gun it is.

This stuff is in the same boat as the surveillance/harrassment camera glasses from Facebook: it's completely optional (unlike, say, healthcare or housing), the downsides are huge, the companies that are pushing it cannot be trusted. Not all technologies are good, and these should be dismantled!
With that being said, Grok and other AI image generators should be destroyed. If we had a just society, it never would have gotten this far.

it's about oil (superstructure), not oil (base), to put it in marxo terms
The amount of “this is clearly about oil” posting across all platforms as story after story comes out where the oil industry is saying that the oil isn’t worth extracting is making me feel a little insane

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

There is no reality in which there is "room for genAI"
I continue to unfollow and eyeroll at my peers who purport to be some flavor of "reasonable" (aka "centrist") on this.
I am disgusted that you would "explore the possibilities" of added convenience in _this_ technology and what it's doing.

THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread
This image, purporting to show the US military arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, is AI-generated.
According to Google's SynthID detector, it was created using Google AI.

seems conspicuous that programmer commentary on genAI is split between
"oh yeah i use claude all the time now. the 10× programmer is real and he's me. i am a god"
and
"yeah my coworkers use claude all the time. they keep committing crap that doesn't work and now i spend half my time fixing it"

I have never once seen a liberal pundit make the same kind of post for say, an anarchist or a communist, or even a milquetoast demsoc. The ‘big tent’ party shit goes exactly one direction

Please keep front of mind that Bluesky is funded by venture capital (VC) money, and there will likely come a time when return on investment takes centre stage.
Don't build too much of a castle on someone else's land, especially when intentions might not align.
Take care and plan accordingly.

If you pay attention to any large industry long enough and follow it to its logical conclusion you eventually end up sounding like a communist even if you started off testing CPU case fans. youtu.be/cUrJVdF2me0?...
