Seeking advice: My daughter who has a schizophrenia spectrum disorder has become more paranoid than most of us about AI and wants to eliminate her exposure to it. Hence, she wants to replace her MacBook Air with a pre-2015 computer running GhostBSD and a CRT monitor. She also wants to replace her Google Fiber internet service with Spectrum service, wants to replace her iPhone with a Sunbeam dumb phone, and wants a CRT television to replace her smart TV. I am highly skeptical that these approaches will address her concerns in a way that is satisfactory.

My questions: What is the best way to eliminate or greatly reduce exposure to AI and other smart technologies on the internet without just disconnecting, which she has rejected? Any other suggestions?

Progressive cortical thinning might identify children at risk of developing psychotic spectrum symptoms

Offspring of patients with schizophrenia or bipolar disorder have an increased risk of developing these conditions. However, our capacity to predict the long-term outcomes of these at-risk individuals is limited.

Ein Text an der Wand in einer geschlossenen Psychiatrie in Hamburg schenkt den Insassen Hoffnung. Keine Sorge, ich war nur zu Besuch.

It is highly ironic that in trying to avoid even tangential dependence on Sanskrit, #TamilNadu ended up enslaving itself to English, which along with so many other European languages, shares so many words with Sanskrit.

"proper" Tamil, eh?

🤖💥 "AI Psychosis" is now apparently a thing, and it's what we've all been waiting for: a #digital #scapegoat for human errors. Who knew a bunch of 1s and 0s could cause #geopolitical #mayhem better than a Bond villain? 🔍😂

Was the Iran War Caused by AI Psychosis? | House of Saud

AI sycophancy, RLHF bias, and Ender's Foundry simulations shaped Operation Epic Fury. 7 planning assumptions failed in 23 days as the Iran war defied every AI prediction.

What does the latest research suggest? “For prognosis, the risk for psychosis onset ranged from 10% at 6 months to 22% at 36+ months follow-up.”

Can we prevent psychosis in high-risk adolescents?

Over the past two decades we’ve seen growing efforts to prevent psychosis developing in people with subtle signs and symptoms of the disorder, termed ‘Clinical High-Risk State for Psychosis’ (CHR-P).

i really try hard to not jump on the militant anti #israel bandwagon but the pinkwashing after they killed all of #gaza queers is a little hard to stomach. plus the new 2nd #nakba in lebanon, impacting a whole bunch of queers. at least i'm not on tiktok to watch these people suffer and die like with gaza'in 2024. #lgbtq #queer first and foremost i'm all for collective #liberation even from internalized repression and religious #psychosis
