For no reason in particular (I’m tired of orientalism), I’m reposting my Tenmaku no Jadoogar: A Witch’s Life In Mongol post again 🪬

Aside from story summary, I talk about misconceptions about religion and why the “Middle East” is a colonizer term we should phase out-links below

AI is NOT inevitable. Keep not using it. Uninstall Copilot from your computer. Refuse to use programs bogged down with it. Complain loudly about it when they shove it into the programs you use. We can starve the slop machines.
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

People complaining about Japanese media being censored in the west, but they never talk about Japanese companies that are censoring their own stuff (I have to import American copies of Resident Evil that are uncensored and any other horror game that's graphic)

Whenever I feel illiterate, I just remember that Japanese people are too and it makes me feel better.

Freelance friends, advice apropos of nothing: When negotiating a rate for a job, the best thing is to let the client say a number first. It will often be higher than what you would've put forward bc we almost always undervalue ourselves.

Folks, Zohran Mamdani—smart guy, reminds me of a young me—you know what he said, I told him, “Zohran, I’m gonna do it, I’m gonna say the shahada,” and he said to me “Mr. President, you should say a third line confirming your belief in the wilayat of Ali,” should we do it folks? Should we say it?
