Kent iemand persoonlijk mannen zoals deze billionair Alex Karp die oprecht bang is voor 'vrouwelijke energie' die onze 'steden' en onze 'rechtbanken' runnen?

“Palantir cofounder and CEO Alex Karp states ‘AI will undermine the influence of highly educated, often female voters and give it to working class men. We have feminine energy running our cities and our courts,’ he complained.”

De dieren van het bos zijn allang gewend aan de aanwezigheid van wolven. Ze zijn zeg maar op elkaar ingespeeld. Zo ook dit edelhert. Hij wordt niet koud of warm van deze 6 maanden oude welp en weet dat hij niets te vrezen heeft.

Wildfires are a known threat in the West. But after a fire scars the earth, there's another, underemphasized risk. Severe burns can strip away plants and leave soils that don’t easily absorb water, increasing the potential for catastrophic floods. Towns are often caught unprepared. THREAD ⬇️

So the AI users are going to feed our original work directly into the chatbot and make it different enough to avoid detection, rather than using chatbot output trained on our work. Eg - recently, I found out Electrek was just copying my blog posts for profit on their website, to run ads against.

bsky.appKetan Joshi (@ketanjoshi.co)WTF is this - @fredlambert.bsky.social from @electrek.co just ripped my post and reworded it? And even generated some garish slop to use as a header?? Did he do this manually or did a chatbot just do…

This is a good illustration of how so much of AI theft isn't indirect (ie, data sucked into a model to train the chatbot) - it's actually **direct** copying, but *enabled* by GenAI. Of course it is: chatbots absolutely suck at creating good, new stuff.

Please note: Even in states that use paper ballots, some voters use accessible touchscreen devices to mark or print their ballots. That means paper ballots don’t rule out a touchscreen issue. We’re being told screen calibration may explain the reported problems, but that has not been confirmed.
