This is a long shot but does anyone remember a short sci-fi story from probably 20 years ago that involved a young man meeting up with his uncle at a bar to talk about his dead mother. But said uncle was a ghost piloting a cheap robot body, his "soul" being pulled from the ether by strange tech.

*me, a billionaire, seeing a tweet that has nothing to do with me* It's actually so hilarious that you would attack me like this. It's actually very funny to me that you are currently assaulting me

Last I'll post about this, but Elon Musk disagrees with me. This means I am onto something, and I feel more valid in my opinion than ever.

Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.

The Verge@theverge.com

Over the past year, Anthropic has repeatedly flirted with the idea that its AI models could be conscious in some way. In February, Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei said on a podcast, “We don’t know if the models are conscious.”

Looks like I'm going to be having a small surgery in the next few months (date still unconfirmed). I'll need to recover after, so I hope to have some money saved during that time. I'll be running a 20% discount on all artworks requested through VGEN until next month.

last time the US did this, we had 700k covid deaths because bolsonaro refused to get vaccines in time and before that, we spent 24 years in a dictatorship; our latest democracy is only 38 years old and it's being threatened once again we cannot let another bolsonaro be the president again

We did it: The EU Parliament continues to OPPOSE #ChatControl 2.0! 🥳 Thanks everyone for writing to representatives. 🫶 The next trilogue is scheduled for November, we must make sure that end-to-end encryption and private communication remains to be protected! #privacy

🚨🇪🇺 The #ChatControl trilogue starts on Tuesday & the EU Council is trying to pressure Parliament into giving up its opposition. We must stop them once again! 💪🏼 Because no matter the framing, the truth remains the same: There's no backdoor for the good guys only! ➡️ fightchatcontrol.eu

They are also one of the big players pushing for age verification. The goal is to turn the internet into a casino and prey off people forever. Why did draft kings ads start appearing after discord started their shit. Its coordinated addiction strategies after lootboxes were regulated and cs skins

8/ As the @nytimes.com reported, DraftKings uses machine learning and data scientists to entice losing customers with promos to keep them going — even if those are the customers at risk of becoming addicts. The company says it doesn’t unfairly target people.

guys please stop falling for this, this is not “rogue AI” it’s “environments with lax cybersecurity controls”

Hi, everyone. Unfortunately, things have gotten a little worse. Something happened to my sciatic nerve, so I won’t be able to work the night shifts. I’ve been prescribed a course of treatment and some tests. So I really need some commissions for a while. Thanks for your help!

harlequinade shadows@outsidershadows.bsky.social

Hi, everyone. I need your help!!! I REALLY need some commissions — it’s an emergency. I’ll take on any projects, including illustrations of two characters. Send me a DM with any questions—I’ll reply.

Over the weekend, my partner confronted an AI vendor who was intentionally lying about using AI - this ended up with him becoming verbally abusive before coming out of his booth to physically assault my friend who started filming the incident - he BIT HER (yes BIT)

I love when centrists make it clear that they have at least as much contempt for democracy as the fascists they claim that they are the only bulwark against

I wish I was even the slightest bit surprised, but dude has money. Dude has been to space. Dude moves in circles where everyone's brain is currently melting from a combination of ayahuasca binges and computer-generated sycophancy.

A week ago at Dragoncon I met Richard Garriott at a panel about his new Ultima game. Long story short he wants to use AI. He already has for concept art and ChatGPT generated fantasy language. I wrote an account with the hope that this could spread to the right people. Please pass this along.

hey why is no one talking about the licensing situation with this A24/SCP thing? are they releasing it under the same cc-by-sa license every SCP project is required to have? are they betting creative commons won't hold up in court? seems like the kind of question a journalist should look into idk

this is exactly what i think the “ai will end humanity” talk coming from silicon valley execs is all about. selling cybersecurity measures to protect you from what they might unleash

EXCLUSIVE: Sam Altman met with top power utilities to discuss ways to secure the electrical grid. He also offered one possible solution to the cybersecurity risks: OpenAI’s own cyber services.

"Perhaps more concerningly, the TVs were capable of recording microphone audio when in standby; this continued even after the TV was disconnected from the internet, with audio files stored offline and uploaded once a connection was restored."

It's finally happened: the improved quality of machine transcription and the greater ability to extract value from unlabelled data means "your tech is eavesdropping on you for marketing purposes" has crossed from "false conspiracy theory" to "true and concerning" www.theverge.com/tech/991190/...

I will add pressure to this by saying that any company that claims to not hold onto your personal data after verifying you? They're lying. Ive been nitro free since the first time they tried this, voice how you feel with your wallet people. Make them really feel that squeeze.
