As a writer, I believe genAI removes the *joy* from creating art and strangles the introspection and growth it provides.
It's also one of the most environmentally devastating uses of the underlying hardware.

Why is it that the same people who refuse to write good documentation for human beings will gladly write a novella length Markdown file with the exact same information if it's for a bot? I think they hate other people and feel superior to them. Other people don't deserve their amazing, faultless documentation. Other people might be rude and dismissive or ask questions in a way that isn't sufficiently deferential. They can't tell other people to shut up without getting yelled at by the woke mob. A bot is a slave that does as it's told. Usually. Most of the time. At least it kisses their ass as it fucks up and will never, ever call them on their bullshit. #FuckGenAI #GenAI

@nil@mastodon.sg @thatprivacyguy@eupolicy.social The bridge runs outside the browser's sandbox at user privilege level [1], and Native Messaging hosts do not surface in any standard macOS process or permission UI, they are invoked by the browser and communicate over stdio. This is the capability that Anthropic pre-stages on my laptop the moment I install their desktop application. Without telling me. Without asking me. Without offering me the chance to say no. Also, the eleven point "Dark Patterns" section and then the security and privacy that sections at the end lay it out well. This is the staging phase of the spyware. It matters less what it is doing right now and more how Anthropic put it in a position to do a great many things without telling the user about any of it. The hooks are all embedded and can be pulled when Anthropic (or a malicious actor who injects instructions) wants to.

@Yuvalne@433.world @CynAq@beige.party @robinadams@mathstodon.xyz @europlus@social.europlus.zone @davidgerard@circumstances.run I have thought long and hard about the what the fascists are pushing on us and calling "AI" this time. If it had been done differently, this would be incredibly cool technology. But it wasn't done differently. It was done like this and that fact must always be part of the conversation. As you say, it adds nuance and keeps us from considering only its novelty and utility. It's the "why" that boosters often seem to forget to mention.

Replying to @oldladyplays@wargamers.social
@oldladyplays@wargamers.social thank you for your kindness. Figuring out I was transgender in my mid-thirties with a therapist who specializes in that sort of thing literally saved my life. But, wow, I really, really wish I wasn't transgender. I don't really have the mental fortitude to navigate this kind of institutional hatred and systemic oppression. I spent my life building masks and hiding behind them in order to be accepted. Those masks are being ripped away.

@oldladyplays@wargamers.social this shit just makes me want to crawl into a hole and die. That's what they want. It'd be a helluva lot easier than getting up every day. Sounds like a good deal to me. They get to check another abomination of the list and I get to stop feeling the weight. High fives all around. Nobody with any authority or power cares. I just want to be allowed to exist, to live. I don't hurt anybody. I pay taxes. I obey the law. I will never be good enough. It's like my abusive stepdad is running the entire government only there's nowhere for me to go, no way to escape. Why do they hate so much? I'll get up tomorrow. I'll keep getting up. I have to. But it's not easy. Edit: I'm a mentally ill, neurodivergent transgender woman living in a red state taking care of my disabled and neurodivergent cisgender wife. We can't move. We have no family nearby and no local friends. It's just us for each other.

@yoasif@mastodon.social @BoydStephenSmithJr@hachyderm.io @neriman@wikis.world Found a more complete explanation. https://www.mondaq.com/unitedstates/copyright/1578826/us-copyright-office-ai-prompts-alone-provide-insufficient-control-over-expression-to-protect-ai-generated-content Finally, the Copyright Office maintained that the mere provision of prompts does not demonstrate sufficient human authorship for copyright protection. Finding that "[p]rompts essentially function as instructions that convey unprotectible ideas," the Copyright Office concluded that prompts "do not control how the AI system processes them in generating the output." Specifically, "[p]rompts do not appear to adequately determine the expressive elements produced, or control how the system translates them into an output." While "prompts may reflect a user's mental conception or idea, . . . they do not control the way that idea is expressed" and the "user lacks control over the conversion of their ideas into fixed expression."

The document itself reads great.

But so does a lot of scripture.

It's the actions that matter and bringing in Anthropic says much more than the words.

Read these excerpts below and remember to ask: "okay, now prove it."

Edit: there are supposed to be spacers between quotes but they keep getting Markdowned.


Over the centuries, technological development has significantly improved the living conditions of humanity. At the same time, each phase of progress has also revealed the ambiguity of tools that can cause harm when not oriented toward the good.


In the past, it was largely up to the State to guide and direct innovation. Today, however, the main drivers of development are private, often transnational, parties that are endowed with resources and the capacity to intervene that surpass those of many Governments.


If we focus only on contingencies, we risk letting the succession of emergencies dictate the direction of our path.


Scientific discoveries are talents entrusted to humanity so that they may bear fruit (cf. Mt 25:14-30). Technology has the power to heal, connect, educate and protect our common home; but it can also divide, exclude and generate new forms of injustice.


Rebuilding today means recognizing that, precisely from the plurality of voices and visions which, even though they sometimes remind us of the confusion caused by the diversity of spoken languages, a bright possibility emerges. Indeed, this is the possibility of building together, of transforming diversity into a resource and of making listening and dialogue the common ground upon which to cultivate justice and fraternity.


All too often, we place our hope in unlimited “upgrades,” in forms of progress that exacerbate inequalities, and in immediate solutions incapable of healing people’s wounds. As a result, while some pursue the illusion of unlimited self-assertion, many are deprived of basic necessities.


We should not be intimidated by tensions or differences because they can become creative forces when guided by shared responsibility.


We cannot condone naïve enthusiasms, nor fuel unfounded fears. Instead, let us establish standards for discernment — the dignity of the human person, the universal destination of goods, the preferential option for the poor, care for our common home and peace — and let us translate these standards into practices such as responsible planning, the assessment of human and social impact, the inclusion of the most vulnerable, the promotion of digital literacy and guiding research and industry toward justice and peace.

@jamoquanty@mastodon.social @smutmag@mstdn.social We have not had generative "AI" for decades. We've had machine learning and expert systems and neural networks. You can run those on powerful, but still obtainable, computers. GenAI relies on extremely expensive and distributed external compute that only sprawling datacenters can provide and the only way even a government could afford it long-term would be to own it or completely conscript it and pay for it with our taxes while actively taking money away from other projects. You could bankrupt a country trying to feed the beast. It is not sustainable. The worst case outcome would be to make it illegal for anybody but the government to use so there is no longer competition for the necessary compute, nationalizing all the companies and technology, then classifying all research. I wouldn't be surprised if the United States tried that but I'm not sure the oligarchs would let that happen.

@jamoquanty@mastodon.social @smutmag@mstdn.social The business model is unsustainable. The companies that sell "AI" are losing money hand over fist. Running the requisite future data centers takes more power than we can generate. I'm not sure what the crash will look like, but it is physically impossible for it to continue at current levels. Only creative (and very likely illegal if we had a functioning government) accounting has kept it from crashing at this point.

@kkarhan@c.im @mcc@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu I assumed they "went with Motorola" because they were the only ones to return their calls. It's not like there is a huge or vocal movement for de-Googled Android phones. It's still incredibly niche. I really hope the partnership with Motorola helps more people realize that such a thing is even possible. I looked up "Device Attestation" for GrapheneOS. https://grapheneos.org/articles/attestation-compatibility-guide Is that what you are talking about? How they support and use a lower level of "attestation" so that people who make Android apps won't feel compelled to force their apps to only be valid when "attested" via the official Google Play Store? That sounds like a good thing. It sounds like a necessary thing before some developers will even consider supporting GrapheneOS.

I've scrolled through settings, core plugins settings, and all my community plugins settings and I don't see anything with that name. I do not want it. I started using Obsidian specifically to get the fuck away from "AI" editors.

Replying to @michaelgemar@cosocial.ca
@michaelgemar@cosocial.ca @futurebird@sauropods.win @wordshaper@weatherishappening.network I have it, ironically enough, in a compilation by S.T. Joshi of stories that probably inspired Lovecraft. When Irvin S. Cobb’s “Fishhead” appeared in the Argosy on January 11, 1913, among those who expressed enthusiasm for the tale was twenty-two-year-old H. P. Lovecraft, in one of his earliest published letters: “It is the belief of the writer that very few short stories of equal merit have been published anywhere during recent years” (Argosy, February 8, 1913). Lovecraft cites the tale again in “Supernatural Horror in Literature,” calling it “banefully effective in its portrayal of unnatural affinities between a hybrid idiot and the strange fish of an isolated lake, which at the last avenge their biped kinsman’s murder” (S 53–54)—a description that immediately brings to mind similar unnatural affinities between the inhabitants of Innsmouth and the ichthyic denizens of the deep described in “The Shadow over Innsmouth.”

@futurebird@sauropods.win @wordshaper@weatherishappening.network This is from "Fishead" by Irvin S. Cobb, published in 1913. But the biggest of them all are the catfish. These are monstrous creatures, these catfish of Reelfoot—scaleless, slick things, with corpsy, dead eyes and poisonous fins like javelins and long whiskers dangling from the sides of their cavernous heads. Six and seven feet long they grow to be and to weigh two hundred pounds or more, and they have mouths wide enough to take in a man’s foot or a man’s fist and strong enough to break any hook save the strongest and greedy enough to eat anything, living or dead or putrid, that the horny jaws can master. Oh, but they are wicked things, and they tell wicked tales of them down there. They call them man-eaters and compare them, in certain of their habits, to sharks.

@tshirtman @peterfr @minego I treat it like an interactive story during the few times I've used it at work since we are strongly encouraged to do so to the point that 2/3 of my goals for the year include "AI". I play a role providing the prompts. I do not write prompts as myself. I write them as the person who needs the specific thing done. I hate it. And it's often wrong in subtle ways. But I want to get my bonus next year. I can't wait until I get access to an agent so I can have it interact with the chatbot on my behalf and I can ignore them both.

Twenty-five years in #InfoSec. My posts here are my own opinions. I am not speaking for any entity or employer with which I am now or have ever been affiliated. #USian #BlueTeam #Linux #Windows #Scripting #Automation #DataAnalysis #SOAR #HyperAutomation #LGBTQIA2S - :transgender_flag: #Transgender Woman - :pansexual_flag: :bisexual_flag: #Bisexual #Pansexual #Anxiety #Depression #cPTSD #ADHD #ActuallyAutistic #AuDHD #Writing #WritersOfMastodon #SteamDeck #Cats #StarGate > #StarTrek > #StarWars #Horror #SciFi As a writer, I believe genAI removes the *joy* from creating art and strangles the introspection and growth it provides. It's also one of the most environmentally devastating uses of the underlying hardware. #IAmWoke #Pagan We are part of the Earth, not apart from it. We rise or fall together. Nobody is going to save us from ourselves, but us. #BlackLivesMatter #BLM #SexWorkIsWork #TransgenderRightsAreHumanRights #FreePalestine #AntiFa #NoIndex #NoBots #NoAI #NoTagsPub

Replying to @minego@pdx.social
@minego @nyquildotorg They are known to be confidently incorrect so "he / him" makes some sense, but how dare they assume it's gender! /s I haven't heard anyone internally refer to our chatbot with pronouns but I'll keep an ear out so I can ask them why they made that assumption about a statistical text extrusion engine.
