tbh if you're someone making videos on YT especially making videos about things you made using coding on YT it might be worthwhile to lead with a "made by humans, no generative AI was used in the creation of this video/game/whatever" splash screen

Hey so this is even better now. It reads github metadata as well as file structure, searching for big glaring genAI fingerprints. It also fights much, much harder against github's page re-renders, so the status badge PERSISTS against pretty much EVERYTHING. This took awhile, please enjoy. Free.

Maybe this is more sharable, but here's AgenticAlert. Alerts you if the repo/project uses genAI. Great if you: * Are tired of everyone hyping slop projects * Are tired of genAI in your #recomp / #decomp scene * Are #noAI * Use a browser Protect yourself against AI slop garbage today.

If you're looking for art to accompany a press release, this is what I do. I have a PhD in astronomy and space illustration/animation is my specialty. This piece, on green white dwarfs, is one of my most recent commissions. Please don't use AI. Use an artist. Thank you. #sciart #scicomm #blender

This means that the increased price of RAM and consumer electronics was a result of an artificial "supply chain crisis" created by Jensen Huang pushing NVIDIA's customers to take early delivery of GPUs. Jensen Huang is responsible for making life worse for everyone.

Ed Zitron@edzitron.com

NVIDIA seems to be channel stuffing, forcing Amazon and other customers to take early delivery. The argument that these things are "scarce" when you don't even have anywhere to plug them into is nonsense...unless NVIDIA is saying you NEED to take them now, or else. GPUs are stacked in warehouses.

I feel like there are parallels to climate change and veganism in AI individually you're tempted and encouraged to do something that you know is immoral, but you feel like you can't affect things much anyway so why not enjoy the personal benefits while you can, especially if it's become the norm

i just beat the campaign and all i can say is... absolute cinema... they really did understand the assignment.

first impressions (after 4 campaign missions and 1 online): - yup, it's ace combat alright. i like the ace combat 5 elements they added. - sound design is really good, everything has more oomph than 7. - playing with starter aircraft instead of end game death machines is refreshing for once.

Cruelty has always been the point. Stephen Miller, the architect behind Trump’s fascist mass deportation campaign, has deported more 200,000 children and opened cruel, inhumane mass detention warehouses. We must dismantle DHS and hold those who have harmed our communities accountable!

Y’all, I hate to rain on the dead bot parade, but the Yandex data center destruction doesn’t seem to have significantly impacted social media bots. I made temporal graphs of X posts about AfD around the time of the attack and there’s no sign of a sudden dip or residual impact on that conversation.
