hello bsky! our game was taken down due to a false DMCA which completely killed our momentum at launch. our studio is in a very precarious position right now. please share and spread the word, steam has been little help to our situation.

tired: 7 out of 10 games are disrespectful to devs
wired: 7 out of 10 games are real and they will hurt you
inspired: what's a number

Got one of these recently from a slopbot claiming to be the Singapore Silent Book Club—which is a real thing that exists, so I checked with the organizer of the actual club, partly just to be entirely certain and also to give them a heads up that this shit is happening using their name.
Authors beware, these AI scambotwhatevers are now plugging Silent Book Clubs and other book club things to get you interested, heads up.

Here it is folks, I really, really, really need your help, especially with boosting/spreading the word, so this can "escape" out of containment.

Please remember there is no algorithm boost here, so every repost counts

Thank you

“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

Once again: this is not something that "threatens" academic freedom, though it will doubtless be reported that way. This is only possible where academic freedom has already ended.
TX Tech has a flow chat for guidance on what can be taught in the university system. Two things:
1. Very little content seems to be permitted. This is partisan control of the curriculum.
2. I would not enjoy teaching under these conditions, but I really would not want to be a Chair or Dean.

this year has been mostly a lot of personal growth and clawing back my health and life etc. which is good but a lot of really wild shit and in the last couple to weeks a lot of really jarring and/or shocking bleak shit so what i’m saying is it’s time for a fucking ho-ho-holiday

this is all generative tech! almost all the time, it is better to just do the thing yourself than to try to build a monkey with poor cognition that can occasionally, in perfect conditions, do it for you

emergence is only useful in contexts where a random vector is desirable and intentional!
I'll say it again -- I'm on my firm's AI committee: every canned demo has had brutal, malpractice-level errors, and every live trial has required more time and care to vet the output than to just do it, like working with an unteachably incompetent associate you'd need to sit down for a Hard Talk.
Loving that AI productivity boost!

From a fantastic hillwalking resource I use in Scotland: battling AI generated replies which lead other users into danger
This is a heads-up about fake AI accounts which have proliferated across social media.

The screenshot is from a genuine thread asking for advice on a mountain route; there are plenty of useful, real human replies.
The attempted reply (we stopped it) looks very real - but it is from an AI bot.

“everyone is just crazy now” i don’t know man i think things are pretty bad and as of now there’s no political force strong enough to make them better. That’s a way of feeling but it isn’t madness. The mind will do anything it can to protect itself from agony. Sometimes that’s bad driving and labubu
