1. NEW: Not Just Stonewall: LGBTQ+ history webpages, mental health hotlines, and resources for the victims of CSAM and hate crimes are among the thousands of censored webpages identified by a custom tool I developed. I hope to document all .gov LGBTQ+ erasure. https://www.madycast.com/p/not-just-stonewall-analysis-shows

solidarity to all transgender people

Something happened yesterday that I found quite interesting. A music festival posted an update on Instagram and Facebook, using an AI generated image.

The backlash was immediate and fierce, so much so that they subsequently deleted the post. What I find interesting is that I don't think people in the Gen AI bubble (just take a look around LinkedIn) have any idea just how deeply hated this stuff is, especially by people even vaguely aligned with any creative industries.

And it's not just the creators themselves (writers, artists, musicians) who strongly object to its use, but also, and in this case even more so, the people consuming that art and content, which is a fair size of the population.

Happy Xmas, and keep away from those AI image generators! ๐Ÿ˜

@cluekitty Yes indeed. He had a good video. People should think about the #RedditBlackout more like a strike than a protest. For all intents and purposes we, the people who are active on the site, are the works generating the content. They just sell ads on the views of the content we generate. So as the workers, we strike.

But a strike only works if what you do is more painful or more expensive than what they can tolerate.

The one thing I'm seeing from the reddit blackout is how absolutely fucked up it is that the best search results were often on reddit and now just link to nothing. Centralisation and SEO and AI written articles have made searching the internet a nightmare.
