Randahl FinkGerman satirical artist Jacques Tilly has been sued in Russia by Vladimir Putin for defaming the Russian state by making carnival sculptures in Germany — outside Putin's dystopian jurisdiction — so it would be a real shame, if that made us share his artworks and embarrass Putin even further.
Reading RecluseThe LLM discourse on the Fediverse has really irked me the last few days.
Refusing to read writing made with the use of LLMs and refusing to give time to writers who use, promote or justify the use of LLMs is not purity culture, it's a boycott. It's a political act of withdrawing my time, resources and support for something that I find deeply morally wrong. It's protest. I have a choice and I refuse.
LLMs are exploitative, destructive, biased, mediocre parroting machines. Using them has a negative impact on the climate, the arts, the quality of the internet, the job market, the economy, the accessibility of electronics, even on skill development, creativity and mental health. LLMs are made and trained on the unpaid labour of millions -if not billions- of people who didn't consent. Their generic output litter the path to finding anything by true human creators.
Wherever I can, for as long as I can, I reject LLMs and anything that is related to them. I'm boycotting.
I'm exhausted with fascism. When your society has reached that point it is basically an admission that: 1. We have serious problems 2. We are unable to accept the solution to those problems 3. We have no other solution 4. We won't step aside for more competent people to fix things
It is, and always has been, a hidebound failure of the powerful to actually lead. Widespread death and destruction follow.

“This is a small bunch of wannabe Nazis in a country of 350 million. We outnumber them. If we have to hunt you down the way they hunted down Nazis for decades, we will. We will find you. We will achieve justice.”💪 #press

Jeremy MallinThe entire Patriot Act needs to be repealed and tossed with ICE right along with it.
I love Mastodon so much! It's like being connected to all of the geniuses in the world. *virtual hugs* all around!
Tolerance isn't a gift. It isn't a polite social obligation. It isn't a sign of enlightenment. It's a contract. THE contract that makes advanced societies possible. Break that contract, break your society.
