I absolutely agree that "A.i." (Abolish ICE) is inevitable and here to stay!

Yes, you are correct, "A.I." (Abolish ICE) should be taught in the public schools.

Yes, I agree, Microsoft should have an "A.I." (Abolish ICE) button in every app.

This is a FRAUDULENT paper, AI-generated. My name was used as an author and I had nothing to do with it, never saw it until today e-pubmed.co.uk/journals/dig...
The "Editors" Angelo Rossi Mori, David Mensah, and Zarnie Khadjesari and this "Journal" should be reported.

The president literally making up international news because he got tricked by AI should be evidence that

1. He needs to get out of office

And

2. AI needs to be regulated, immediately

So @why.bsky.team is no longer mass blocking via this list, probably as a kneejerk reaction to realizing he doesn't know how his own (likely vibe-coded) feeds work. He is instead spending his morning manually blocking trans people and furries

Despite what the legislator is claiming, this isn't theoretical. Louisiana cops cited this woman for "indecent" exposure for wearing a crop top.

Even with a dismissal, that's legal fees, sleepless nights and public shame.

Harassment is meant to send a message.

Dying in office because you insisted on clinging to power until the very end instead of letting a new generation of leaders rise should be seen for the shameful, egomaniacal act that it is.

This is a great example of the pathological thought pattern that I keep seeing everywhere on here but can never put a name to. It’s this like, aggressively escalatory response to the idea that some random user wrote a post that’s not tailored to your prior knowledge & reading comprehension level

ChatGPT Edu contracts say that the university must prevent end-users (incl. students) from misusing the service and commits the university to indemnify OpenAI for claims related to "(a) use of the Services in violation of this Agreement; (b) Customer Applications, if any; or (c) Customer Content."

i've seen "it would really stick it to the devs if we left bsky" posts & no it wouldn't. they want this web site to be boring crypto idiots who cool their phones off in pools chatting with AI reply bots. instead they have to put up with us and that's deeply funny

Editor’s Note | We Unknowingly Published an AI Column. The editorial team at the Mississippi Free Press discovered we published a column written by a fake author using artificial intelligence.

EDITOR'S NOTE: "We want to bring people, their stories and their words to our table. And in our newsroom, that will be done without the use of artificial intelligence," Kevin Edwards writes.

The IEA agrees, @lloydalter.bsky.social!

And my hot take doesn't change: this is a choice, not a paradox: companies are choosing to bloat their digital products at an unprecedented scale

Figure 2.1 ⊳ Indicative inference GPU electricity consumption across different

Model design and model choice have large impacts on electricity intensity
Notes: LM = language model; MoE = mixture of experts. Medium LM = DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B. Large
MOE = Qwen3-235B-A22B. Reasoning = DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B with reasoning turned on. Only GPU
electricity consumption is shown in this graph, as this is the metric for which measurement is most reliable.
Text generation values are drawn from the AI Energy Score leaderboard, which benchmarks open-weight
models under standardised conditions designed to ensure cross-model comparability rather than to represent
optimised production deployments. Agentic estimates represent a moderate task profile of four to six
sequential LLM calls, derived by applying token-scaled decomposition to GPU electricity consumption of
DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Llama-70B with and without reasoning. “Agentic” encompasses a wide and evolving range
of architectures; estimates here should be interpreted as indicative of the order of magnitude rather than as
precise figures for any specific system. Reasoning and non-reasoning estimates are shown separately to
illustrate the sensitivity of the results to the reasoning mode.

Note the logarithmic scale here.

Using an "agentic" model or "reasoning" (don't like either of those words) is such a material increase in energy consumption. @sashamtl.bsky.social has been on this case for years now.

This is actually a really interesting tell, because the "invevitability of AI" narrative sure feels like it's really about the inevitability of climate change, what with how obviously AI accelerates it and immediately requires extreme increases in energy production

The truth is already on the side of those of us who believe sexual violence and rape is a problem, there is no need to embellish. Repeating misinfo does nothing but hurt the cause. Disappointed to see how quickly people turn into a little propagandists when it's an issue they care about

New Gas-Powered Data Centers Could Emit More Greenhouse Gases Than Entire Nations A WIRED review of permits for data center projects using natural gas and linked to OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft, and xAI shows they could emit more than 129 million tons of greenhouse gases per year.

NEW: I've been shocked by some of the numbers I've been seeing on behind-the-meter power plants for data centers, so I did a little math.

less than a dozen gas plants being built to power data centers for big tech companies could emit a maximum of nearly 130 million tons of CO2e each year (!)

I don't like the AI memes regardless of who uses them and how because intentionally or unintentionally when you generate that stuff, due to the locations of data centers, what you are engaging in anti-Blackness and actively harming southern Black people who go through & have been through enough.

What the founding generation understood as an establishment of 
religion is a legal question to be decided by a court, not a “fact” question to 
be decided by experts, no matter how credentialed. To be sure, courts must 
make a determined effort to grasp the relevant history bearing on that legal 
question. Hilsenrath, 136 F.4th at 491 (“This kind of historical inquiry 
requires serious work.” (citation omitted)); McDonald v. City of Chicago, 561 
U.S. 742, 803 (2010) (Thomas, J., concurring) (noting “[h]istorical 
analysis can be difficult”). See generally Heller, 554 U.S. at 592–95, 600–03, 
605–19. They do so by consulting articles, books, and historical sources and 
bringing their own independent judgment to bear on them—not by 
appointing an “expert,” whose “findings” are insulated by clear-error 
review on appeal.57

And then, in one last bizarre twist, the Court says that judges aren't allowed to ask experts in history about questions of history, because experts impact "independent judgment."

The key phrase—“an establishment of religion”—was readily 
understandable to founding-era citizens. See District of Columbia v. Heller, 
554 U.S. 570, 576–77 (2008) (relying on a phrase’s “[n]ormal meaning . . . 
known to ordinary citizens in the founding generation”). The reason is 
simple. At the time, establishments were “a familiar institution.” 
McConnell, Establishment, supra note 12, at 2107.13 Someone on the streets 
of 1789 Boston, reading that phrase, would have instantly thought of the 
Church of England, the colonial established churches, or the current state 
establishments—in other words, a polity’s official church or religion. Ibid.

Although the colonial establishments became more tolerant of 
dissenters as independence approached, their essence remained unchanged. 
The original state constitutions reflect as much. Far from rejecting 
establishments, many states preserved the core components of their 
establishments, such as public financial support for the official church, 
regulation of religious institutions, and religious qualifications for civic 
participation.36 Most explicit was South Carolina, whose 1778 Constitution 
declared that “the Christian Protestant religion” was “the established 
religion,” requiring religious societies to subscribe to enumerated articles of 
faith to receive legal recognition. S.C. Const. of 1778, art. XXXVIII, 
reprinted in Poore, State Constitutions, supra note 36, at 1626.

The Fifth Circuit flatly states that when the First Amendment says Congress may not create an "establishment of religion," it means the Church of England. They then argue the Founders intended states to have their own churches unaffected by the First Amendment (!!!).
