“Karp’s message is loud and clear: My technology will take political capital away from one of your greatest enemies—liberal women with degrees—and give one of your favorite demographics to patronize—working-class men—more political power to transfer to you.”

These fucking women-hating weirdo assholes.

I used to think my nemesis was the finance bro. My mistake. It's the Tech Bro. Specifically, this kind.

Is your timeline a bit empty? Do you want it to be filled with interesting posts and nice accounts?

Here's a simple non-technical guide to all the different ways you can discover accounts to follow on Mastodon and the wider Fediverse:

➡️ fedi.tips/how-do-i-find-accoun

There's no algorithm on here so discovering people and posts may take a bit more effort, but it also tends to produce higher quality more humane results.

If I've missed a method let me know 🙂

小説投稿サイトに必要なのは「AI読者」だ——埋もれた作品に、最初の読者を。|Masa Kei note.com/masa_kei/n/n05a4a9a0f

> このAI読者という仕組みは、書き手だけでなく投稿プラットフォーム自体にも利点がある。
> 読者ゼロの作品を減らすことにより、書き手の離脱率が下がる。AI読者がSNSで作品を紹介することは、これまで閉じた生態系だった投稿サイトと外部の読者をつなぐ経路になる。埋もれた名作が発掘されるたびに、そのプラットフォームへの信頼が積み上がる。
> コンテストの一次審査をAI読者が担い、AIによる寸評を読みつつ人間の編集者が作品を読む。そういう運用も現実的だ。

ということを考えている人もいるというのは、意外ではないですね。で、あなたたちはいったい何を求めて小説を書いて/読んでいるんです?

"Even worse was the suggestion by Grammarly’s A.I. version of me to replace the first sentence of the news article with an anecdotal opening describing a fictional person named Laura whose privacy had been violated.

“Laura, a patient searching for relief from a chronic condition, clicks through her hospital’s website to schedule an appointment. In just a few moments, her most private medical details — her reason for visiting, her doctor’s name and even the treatment she seeks — are quietly sent to Facebook, without her knowledge,” the bot suggested with a button allowing the user to paste that excerpt straight into the article.

Replacing a factual sentence with an imagined story about a person who doesn’t exist is not only bad editing. It’s a deception that could end my career as a journalist (or the career of any journalist who took that terrible advice).

And this is the problem with A.I. It doesn’t know truth from fiction. It doesn’t know an investigative news article from an offhand comment. It flattens all content into word associations.

What Grammarly made wasn’t a doppelgänger. As the writer Ingrid Burrington wrote on Bluesky, it was a sloppelgänger — A.I. slop masquerading as a person.

And it must be stopped."

we've reached the "dont complain about AI because its hyperbolic and only drives people apart, morality isnt a binary!" part of the curve.

imagine resisting anything with even like 5% strength, imagine! if you are a supposedly a critic of this technology, however nuanced, it's on you to make cases and explain how we are going to use something for its benefits without succumbing to it's costs. and right now the cost is total alienation and dispossession in a fascist surveillance dystopia
