"A new aged care algorithm has cut his support, no human can override it."
That statement is bullshit. No human has *chosen* to override it, because they want poor aged people dead.

#BloodInTheMachine is also an excellent book, btw. www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/across-the-us-people-a...
“As David Noble, a historian of twentieth-century automation, wrote, "Managers feel they must automate because 'every-one's doing it, out of fear that they will be undone by more up-to-date competitors” #bloodinthemachine
@edzitron.com An AI datacentre on Christmas Island? This is beyond fucked.

This is truly fucked up re: AI, because loneliness does not:
- fund inequality
- violate the climate
- violate laws
"For all of the things that are glitchy and weird and off about it, it is far better than feeling lonely and isolated," he said."

Oh no, what a shame @bcmerchant.bsky.social: "He said the research team had considered the risk they may end up providing an instruction manual for getting around the social media ban." #bloodinthemachine
Seems like the "NSW Reconsuction Authority" weren't the only ones abused by ChatGPT...

From @bcmerchant.bsky.social’s illuminating report on how #AI is upending tech cos—largely because Execs are falling for all the Hype about LLMs See these dispiriting first-person (anonymized) worker stories gathered in #BloodInTheMachine www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/how-ai-is-...
What we need James, is for you to teach students that automating inequality is killing us. Which you should not be teaching or endorsing. That is what you’re doing, and it’s unacceptable behaviour. @antipovertycentre.org @nobodyinpoverty.bsky.social #bloodinthemachine #robodebt #AusPol
At nearly 16 hrs on Audible I wasn’t sure a ‘history of the Luddites’ was going to hold my attention. I was very wrong! #BloodInTheMachine from @bcmerchant.bsky.social was excellent, and the parallels to contemporary #AI discussions are very well drawn. A must read for anyone working on AI policy.
Did you know that #NDIS uses AI and/or machine learning/whatevs for decision making?

Starting at 5pm on March 10, 404's @samleecole and @jasonkoebler and Blood in the Machine's @brianmerchant discuss how AI slop is taking over the internet and how humans can fight back. Then it's Indie Media Q&A + party! […]
Finally starting #BloodInTheMachine by @bcmerchant.bsky.social 📚
