The narrative around AI layoffs is ao backwards. Corporate boards want layoffs to juice stocks. Execs want to believe that AI will make up for the HR blood letting because they don't know where else to cut to get the demanded quarter-over-quarter growth in a stagnant economy.

That particular animation studio prints money churning out (in my opinion) not particularly visually appealing slop for toddlers, and it's all a bit depressing to me (even though that's kind of the history of popular entertainment, and I should be used to that by now)

I know testing emergency alert systems is probably a good idea, but with the world the way it is, the now half dozen or so emergency alert tests I've received from the city of Austin are making me paranoid. "What do they know!?" I know it's irrational, but that's where my brain is going.

I am loath to do this, but I need your help. My 20+ year marriage has unexpectedly imploded. There's a kid involved. Aside from Lupus, Autism and a shitty 2009 Mazda, I have nothing. Things are fairly desperate right now, so if you can help out now in any way at all I'd be really grateful ❤️

Saw one of those "I bought this before Elon went crazy" bumper stickers earlier this week, but it was on a late 2000s Hyundai Sonata.

I realized recently that I've been living in the same house for the longest stretch of years in my entire life (6 years). Previous record was maybe 4-5 years? I've gathered no moss, but I do have a lot of junk that would normally get purged in a move.

A comic strip titled The Amazing World of Tomorrow.
A food delivery robot cooler drives down a sidewalk.
It crashes into a rental scooter. 
It backs up.
It crashes into the rental scooter again. The scooter wobbles.
The scooter falls to the ground as the food delivery robot backs up again.
A driverless taxi crashes into both the scooter and the food delivery robot sending them flying.

'AI Is African Intelligence': The Workers Who Train AI Are Fighting Back Kenyan workers are still the underpaid labor behind AI training, moderation, and sex chatbots. The Data Labelers Association is fighting back.

I met with AI data labelers in Kenya who are organizing their colleagues to fight the brutal working conditions and horrible pay given to the workers at the "bottom of the AI supply chain." They believe the NDAs they've signed are unenforceable so are speaking out:

Max Fleischer’s granddaughter has been funding these restorations on her own and we’d really appreciate if we can get the public support on the blu ray. It will help us get more out of the vault and keep the legacy alive. Thank you!
