NFTs for AIs. Don't need to sell crocs, just the cryptographically signed vibes of some

The new AI data centres are specialised and will come with a high proportion of systems equipped with high power consumption, enterprise-tier GPUs. Many typical internet based tasks are more IO bound rather than compute bound and so much less power intensive
Let the enshittification begin!
Why is Jay gone, and a VC taking her place?
I wonder if Christian extremists have considered that Jesus might not be entirely happy about plans to expedite his return via the bombing of schools. "Who dares disturb my slumber?" kind of vibes

OpenAI on the other hand seems to be happy to have a kind of deliberately unenforceable version of the same policy that the US government seems to be much happier with
Beyond the plagiarism, #AI companies are increasingly entrenching themselves with the US military. The US DoD has fallen out with anthropic because of a policy related to not allowing fully autonomous killing that anthropic insisted on. But they were happy for their tech to be used for other killing
AI investors apparently, since last year, spend more money purely on AI investment than US consumers do in total. There's a reason it persists despite unpopularity, quantities of investment which dwarf ALL of individual spending are going into it. Opinions don't matter, only a dictatorship of cash
Wait isn't that the country where those masked men were shooting people? And where the president is a big orange nonce?
Modern day curses: may the adhesive on your ready meals always be much stronger than the plastic film
Imagine if the billions in investment in generative AI instead went to:
Green energy with sodium battery storage (where sodium is abundant unlike lithium)
Exploiting under sea currents for power generation
Developing less invasive medical diagnostics
Fruit picking robotics
Funding human arts
I really should sort out my follows into lists or something because I get a real mismatch of high frequency/visibility accounts dominating everything and it makes me tune out
Right wingers are like "the state is evil" then get elected and make the state evil. Their voters feel vindicated by this somehow #politics
A woman got shot point blank in the face while trying to drive away from ICE (while legally residing in the US), and the US government has been trying to make propaganda about it and make it seem like her fault
Silicon Valley is getting what they paid for.
Since I posted this the US has been kidnapping people with ID free ICE agents in hoods and masks
Bombed Caracas
Threatening to invade Greenland
These tech platforms paid Trump to do it!
This is for the Pfizer one for extra info
Got the COVID booster today. The pharmacy leaflet even came with the full ingredients list! Contrary to what conspiracy theorists would tell you it all seems to check out. More recent ones even have a change so that it stings less than the older ones, I barely even felt it.
Legends Arceus genuinely looked really good though. I don't understand why they haven't fully embraced that style
Yeah but the console doesn't come with it on, it's just a code that lets you download the startup screen
Every planet's society is a cookie cutter of jedi values taken to extremes in historical fear of the dark side; suppress your emotions, small threats to peace are dealt with harshly, everyone seeks wisdom but nobody builds... 2/2 #starwars
1000 years after Star Wars episode VI, the dark side has been defeated. There is no dark side. The lack of balance leads to pervasive light side hegemony - an invisible empire. #starwars 1/2
AI car crashes documented in real time thanks to Microsoft Copilot 😂
If you're serious about defeating corporate power, step 0 is to support the community alternatives like Mastodon over future big corps like Bluesky.
Google used to have the motto "don't be evil" - today they make AI weapon systems: www.wired.com/story/google...
Netflix used to brag about not having ads, now you can pay with ads!
Facebook was "bringing people closer together" - including Myanmar genociders and their victims.

Fun fact: OpenAI of all companies started as a "non profit" before restructuring to allow profit generation.
They took in optimistic technologists, told them they'd do good and built support before turning it around and slapping them in the face.
Now they're profiting from art theft.

Don't worry, I'm sure a silicon valley based tech company would never use NDAs. #influencers #tech #latestagecapitalism #startup #socialmedia #enshittification

It's important to know what you're dealing with before enabling something's success
Recently we've had the US secretary of health wanting to make a list of all autistic people in their country while claiming that they "will never pay taxes, they'll never hold a job".
Meanwhile people voted Reform in droves, the ideological twin of Trumpism.
"Never again"...
