I have a feeling that even choosing the last option ("I have...concerns...") will be used by Ai to train Ai not to address my concerns but to hide them better.

I value the functionality of Ai technology. It's great. I loathe the abuse of it which is, honestly, the vast majority of its use.
I currently do not use GenAi tools and have concerns about their application in the workplace

Every box has an inside and an outside.

Modern society's sick obsession with definitions and labels DESTROYS our capability to trust each other enough to have civil discussions BECAUSE...wait for it...people in conflict more often than not have merely put DIFFERENT boxes around the SAME thing.

Also does great logo work for #ttrpg people - I loved working with Carl on the Love & Barbed Wire logo and my company logo. Genuinely collaborative experience.
Green and black hexagon with a banner across the centre which says Plane Sailing Games. Above is an old ships wheel with moon and stars. Below is a die and hand of cards. Banner that says Love & Barbed Wire over a couple of envelopes and a letter, with barbed wire coiling around the edges.

Where we can see heaven much better
Come up the ladder to the roof

Closer to heaven

Jesus multiplied fish and loaves to feed the assembled crowd because we are all each others' neighbor, with much food to spare, without cost

trump withholds food in an intentionally punitive attack against the vulnerable because he's a subhuman pathetic worm who believes nobody is his equal
patrickkingart.com Patrick King @patrickkingart.com · 25d
Hearing stories this morning about people who can no longer feed their kids because of SNAP benefits expiring fills me with a blinding rage I've never felt before. Just the absolute inhuman gall of Trump and the alleged "Christians" in the GOP actively harming people for no reason.

Last week, the Department of Agriculture said it will withhold money earmarked by Congress to pay for SNAP during the shutdown, the first time emergency funds have not been released in such a case.”

received a light hand-slap in a meeting this morning for describing the United States as a "supposed First World country" in light of suspending SNAP benefits for 42 MILLION people.
