#DataProtection is a top priority for the White House and we take any concerns about the use of data seriously. We are confident that Brave has taken all the necessary steps to ensure that all data collected is done so legally and that all third parties involved are fully aware of their rights. #DataPrivacy #DataRights #AI #RobotCrawlers http://www.techmeme.com/230715/p13#a230715p13

Brave appears to be selling copyrighted data for AI training and giving third parties the “rights” to that data, while not disclosing its own robot crawler

Colonising art, the AI way. “The euphoria surrounding generative AI often ignores ethics and rights, especially when it comes to artists whose work may be lifted for free and altered or mimicked without their consent.”

LMAO at the tease for this article: “How many humans does it take to make AI seem human?”

AI Is a Lot of Work

How many humans does it take to make tech seem human? Millions to support OpenAI, Google, Meta, and every other major tech company. As AI becomes ubiquitous, a vast tasker underclass is emerging — and not going anywhere.

Any #ADHD folk in my timeline who are also parents willing to speak with me? I’m advocating for an ADHD youngster, and need inputs from #actuallyADHD adults.

There's yet another "AI will kill us all! It poses a risk of extinction!" letter going around, and I just… Y'all i am just so fucking tired.

CAPITALISM poses risk of extinction (climate change, right the fuck now).

WHITE SUPREMACY poses risk of extinction (genocide, eugenics).

HEGEMONY poses risk of extinction (nuclear FUCKING WAR).

And whatever "risk of extinction" "AI" poses, it poses because it is BUILT FROM THOSE EXTREMELY HUMAN VALUES.

Even if you stopped every "AI" project running, RIGHT THIS SECOND, those values would still kill us. And no matter how long you "pause" your "AI" projects, if you don't address those values? Then when you start your "AI" back up? You'll KEEP BUILDING THOSE SAME VALUES IN.

This is not hard. At this point, as much as it pains me to say it, it's not even novel. And yet you're still not fucking getting it.

I'm so goddam tired.
