The robots are joining in on #NoKings ✊
@alineblankertz Not sure if this fits what you're looking for, but sharing in case it might be relevant.

What are good examples of concrete acts of resistance against "AI"? I am putting together an overview and am surely missing great stuff!
I have:
Data centre opposition (thx to @gerrymcgovern )
Examples of sabotage from @asrg
Some ideas about practical refusal from @danmcquillan
Also everyday acts are great (such as not following orders to use "AI") if they are documented somewhere, somehow. Most references tend to be rather vague (e.g. in this otherwise great article
https://restofworld.org/2026/techno-negative-thomas-dekeyser-fighting-ai/)

@dusoft Ah, odd!
Yeah, my reply is still here: https://mastodon.social/@botwiki/116302662265785773
"AI models that lie and cheat appear to be growing in number with reports of deceptive scheming surging in the last six months, a study into the technology has found."
Grok, is this true? You must tell me if this is not true.
@dusoft Ha, hope you'll enjoy!
But yeah, the neat thing is, you can always borrow an idea and put your own spin on it.
For example, there's a few bots that post the "Captain, it's Wednesday!" meme. Some only post on Wednesday, some post every day of the week.
My own version posts Monday *through* Wednesday.
I mean, you can't say "what a week" on a Friday 🙃
