Discovering Prince, Ten Years Later - Anil Dash A blog about making culture. Since 1999.

I don’t find the INFOWARS thing amusing or useful. For two separate reasons

And when one of those dudes gets exposed AGAIN and everybody is shocked ? Imma just shrug

One of my blog posts in 2009 was about finding the message boards where the pre passport passport bros wrote about bargaining down sex workers in Guyana

Christopher Columbus wrote extensively about the assaults of women and children

Everything new was old

It's the conservative "I've been canceled" media tour. Standard grift

The AI bubbles longest gift will be showing how easily some people gave up any morals AND technological sense

Just to be close to power and money

You know what I haven’t seen yet

Any of the white academics screaming about academic freedom who are linking it to the attack on cultural studies for almost 60 years

Fascinating how the humanities suddenly don’t care about specifics and timelines

Archives and History matter

Hey Dems let me say something:.. if you bring people “back in the fold” before you handle your racism ?

The detonation of the betrayal will be epic and no one will save you

Even white people aren’t okay with this anymore

Not that I do not love my young beloveds … but sometimes I just want an over 30 internet .

They deserve space to be … I just don’t want it in my algorithm unless it’s subject m based

You never have to brigade or abuse someone for em. Defend me ? Absolutely! Correct something sure

But vendettas, lol cowing, brigading?

One thing I been real clear about most of my online career

We don’t treat people like that.

A.I. is a drug and it is best not to fool with it.

They always give it to you for free in the beginning to get you hooked and then they start charging. It looks fun, all your friends are doing it next thing you know you're a A.I. crackhead.

70 powerful Bay Area men were accused of sexual misconduct. What happened next? Since 2010, scores of prominent local men have faced allegations ranging from sexual harassment to rape. Most have returned to the highest echelons of public life.

I be seeing you !

So miss me with the AI literacy solutions. In fact, keep missing me until you propose “AI literacy” that teaches folks how these systems incorporate systemic oppression into its operations. That’s the kind of literacy we need.

Most of media literacy and AI literacy are not literacy problems

They are empathy and hierarchy problems under grounded by unequal resources

Which people who teach literacy keep trying to tell us

Anyone arguing that some flavor of AI literacy will protect women from AI deep fake porn is at best unserious and at worst desperate to protect their automated goon generator. This is prima facie not a literacy problem.
