Why, I remember when this was all just Arpanet. I'm over educated, opinionated, and quite possibly wrong about everything. Published author, banned comics publisher, ethicist, cranky old philosopher careered in information architecture. AKA: I contain multitudes. Black lives matter. Trans lives matter. Your life matters. End Colonialism. Free Palestine. Eat the Rich. Avatar: A crop of "The Letter" by Delphin Enjolras, against a background of prairie flowers.

Y’all, we need to talk about the #AI-bros and the fact that they don’t think other people are humans that have value as ya know, people.
“We hosted a YC Startup School afterparty at the #LemonLime office to meet exceptional people, and find out which of them are just as crazy as we are,” wrote Zietz in a now-deleted #LinkedIn post. “That’s why we brought an actual tattoo artist to our party and offered an instant interview to anyone who got a LemonLime tattoo.”
Yep, an AI company said it would interview real humans only if they got branded with the company logo.
They’ve subsequently removed their posts…but the internet is forever.
