Instagram-Post: „Zara steht vor dem Aus“
Es ist alarmierend, was ZARA gerade schrieb:
Das Bundeskanzleramt hat vollständig & mitten im laufenden Jahr die Förderung der Beratungsstelle #GegenHassimNetz gestrichen - das ist österreichweit die wichtigste Anlaufstelle für Betroffene digitaler Gewalt
Es ist wichtig, dass die Förderung bleibt!
Will start teaching undergrads again next week after a year's hiatus, now I'm concerned.
Very impressive!

As Günther Anders warned in 1956, what matters is not the decision AI reaches when it comes to questions about war, but the very fact that humanity would debase itself by asking a computer such questions at all...
#NihilismAndTechnology
I don't remember seeing an image of Earth before that captures the (thin, fragile, tiny layer of) atmosphere so clearly. I mean, look at that.
Ernsthaft keine Ahnung, warum Leute glauben, es wäre eine gute Idee, vermeintlich «progressive» AI #Slopaganda im NS-Stil zu generieren, quasi Wilhelm Kachel «von links»
What does it mean to feel outclassed by your own creations? @acidhorizon.bsky.social gets into AI, nuclear weapons, and the philosophy of Günther Anders with translator Christopher John Müller:

You‘re inspiring in yet another - and unexpected - way!
AI is poor people.
Ein Grund, warum die EU wieder mehr Atomstrom will: Wegen dem hohen Energieverbrauch von KI. Vorschlag: Dann lassen wir es eben mit der KI.

That was a really insightful presentation!
I think I haven't disliked a film so viscerally since Forrest Gump.
I am still thinking about why I found the style of the film so disconcerting, apart from the unlikeable protagonist.
@eileenj19.bsky.social made a lot of valid points in her critique.
I am now all the more glad I was spared the undeserved epiphanic finale.
After having just walked out of Marty Supreme after its first half, it's comforting to see that meaningful film criticism is not yet dead.
Dieses Jahr könnte ein Anders-Jahr sein, denn vor 70 Jahren veröffentlichte der Philosoph, Schriftsteller und Sprachkritiker Günther Anders (1902–1992) den ersten Band seines Hauptwerkes »Die Antiquiertheit des Menschen«.

Martenstein am Rednerpult
Ich habe mir in einem Anflug von Masochismus die Rede von Martenstein beim "Prozess gegen Deutschland" angehört. Ihr wisst, das ist dieses dreitägige Theaterprojekt von Milo Rau in Hamburg. Martenstein hat auf dieser Bühne etwas bekommen, was er bei Bild nicht bekommt: die Aura des Kulturellen. 🧵
The air quality in Berlin and actually all the eastern parts of Germany has been consistently bad for a couple of weeks now. Yet there is virtually no reporting in the media about this. Why is that?

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Shaftesbury is the most rewarding source for thinking about enthusiasm in modernity, alas largely forgotten nowadays...
I feel the same in regard to ENTHUSIASM which is much more than mere euphoria.
I’m truly excited to share that The Oxford Handbook of Emotions in International Relations, co-edited with Andrew Ross , is finally out in the world. lnkd.in/dZYNS2Jb
