I love how so much of the AI debate is on things like:

* Will AI take people's jobs?
* Will AI destroy creativity?
* Will AI take over the world?
* Will AI be used to make people poorer?

And not:

* Will corporations that use AI get rid of people's jobs?
* Will corporations that use AI destroy creativity?
* Will corporations that use AI try to take over the world?
* Will corporations that use AI make people poorer?

Because these LLMs and machine learning systems and so forth aren't just wandering around randomly out there - they're owned by corporations. The corporations are the ones putting them to use. The executives that run those corporations are the ones making the decisions to pay people less, to increase their profits, to make creative people act as subeditors for LLMs.

It's the corporations, and the ethics-free systems that govern them, that cause these things. They're the ones pushing to have more AI.

The rest of us would be happy just having a bit more humanity in the world.

@Terra@chaosfem.tw Feel this. More on some days than others, but only rarely not at all.

okay so I said before that despite having no trans characters and, as far as I know, no trans creatives working on it, #Silo is the absolute TRANSIEST thing I’ve seen this year. and this week’s episode took it to… TRANSIESTEST? wow.

I love it so much.

I’m ready to go Clean.

Back in Chicago for the first time since 2015. I’m here to host a team meetup, but also to visit with friends I haven’t seen since my last visit, and, therefore, haven’t ever really seen _me_. 🫥

@danirabbit Oh gods. I’m being pulled (kicking and screaming) into Disney World later this year. I may have to try for this.

Trying to figure out the posing in this photo. Like, what was the photographer going for exactly?

@Terra@chaosfem.tw I think you have proven that you have something to write home about your boobs: just transcribe what you posted here. 🥰

Also: I’m jealous. 😆

@marcin Thank you. While I agree that it shouldn’t happen, I need to accept that it sometimes will, and learn to brush it off when it does. ☺️

I have been asked to stop using the word MANSPLAINING.

It probably is time to be more politically correct.

In the future I will be using the clinical diagnosis CORRECTILE DYSFUNCTION.

You’re welcome.

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
