People feel more lonely, in part because so many of our relationships are mediated by social media.

Instead of atoning for the harms of his platforms, Mark Zuckerberg has a new tech solution: he’s going to give us all a bunch of Meta-powered AI friends to fill the void left by the lack of real ones. It’s an even more dystopian future.

Mark Zuckerberg wants to you be lonely and miserable

That’s the only way he’ll profit from selling you AI friends

It is once again time to give thanks to Brian Fox, the Black American programmer that has given us BASH and echo! Thank you for your INCREDIBLE contributions to open source software, Unix, and Linux. It literally would not be the same without you. BASH is still absolutely foundational to all computing today. Happy Black History Month to an absolute icon!

AI is a form of “fascistic solutionism” that diverts us from serious problems and presents tech that classifies and surveils as a solution.

Today the Nerd Reich (as Gil Duran names it) comes to power in Trump's wake. In 'Resisting AI - An Anti-fascist Approach to Artificial Intelligence' https://bristoluniversitypress.co.uk/resisting-ai I wrote about forms of resistance to technofascistic solutionism. Other worlds are still possible ✊

Resisting AI

Resisting AI - An Anti-fascist Approach to Artificial Intelligence; Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere, yet it causes damage to society in ways that can’t be fixed. Calling for the restructuring of AI, Dan McQuillan sets out an anti-fascist approach that replaces exclusions with caring and outlines new mechanisms that support collective freedom.

#OtD 20 Jan 1934 Nazi Germany introduced a law designating capitalists as "fuhrers" of their enterprise and requiring "employees and labourers [to] owe him faithfulness". Along with other measures it helped funnel income from workers to big business. https://stories.workingclasshistory.com/article/9269/nazis-ban-collective-bargaining
