Yesterday, had an argument with an AI booster. I'm not going to link, both because I don't want to platform that and because I don't want anyone to go harass them. But what I thought was very interesting was that I asked point-blank if there was any degree to which ethical problems with LLMs could make them not want to use AI — they told me no, there was not, and implied that they evaluated AI purely on the basis of its efficacy.

I don't have time nor the inclination to argue that point with them further when it comes to AI. But I do think there's a broader point that is worth critical examination, especially as tech continues to build out surveillance, age verification, automated filtering and censoring, and other tools that do immense damage when used by authoritarians.

We *cannot* afford to evaluate tech purely based on whether it "works" or not.

카더라에 따르면 애시당초 지구 영계 시스템 자체가 관료제 시스템 및 샌드박스인것 같더군요... 저레벨 영혼들이 빨리 레벨업할수 있도록 올려주는 그런 저레벨 전용 던전이라고 들었습니다 그래서 저승사자도 있고 관리하는 공무원(?)들도 많은것... 우주에 그렇게 많지 않아서 초인기이고 환생/스폰하는 큐도 엄청나게 길게 밀려있다고 들음 (..) ... 왜 역사가 한심하게 같은 패턴으로 자꾸 반복되는가?? 저레벨이 계속 끊임없이 밀려들어옴;; (물론 카더라니 적당히 판단하시고 넘어가시면 되겠습니다)

Fedi, a good friend needs to find a place to live in Padua (Padova), Italy. He has citizenship, but doesn't speak the language well. He's not wealthy but he's able to afford a small place. He's currently in the UK.

Can anyone help me find him a letting agent or any other source where he can view and apply to rent an apartment? He's tried calling a couple of places to no avail.

Probably mostly not my audience here, but I'm currently looking for a business-side/CEO cofounder for an encrypted radio startup. There are solid funding options, but while I can build the team to make the product happen, I'm not the person to navigate the money side of things. I'm looking for a cofounder with previous startup CEO experience and executive-level experience (although not necessarily CEO) in a hardware startup specifically. EU citizen and resident, although it'll be a remote team, so where is less important.

@blueluma It's amazing how the big industry has brainwashed the audience. I now collect this type of accusation no longer monthly, but weekly. And as a digital painter with more than 25 years' experience, I understand why. In fact, my work (and other, billion) has been used to train those AI models, so AI paint like us. But please stop accusing work that you are not 100% sure about. When real humans are behind it and have spent full days creating that imagery, it hurts a lot.
