@dramypsyd A.I. - Absent Instructions maybe in this case? They didn't train the A.I. in how to respond to your specific issue? Because we all know that A.I. is perfect and nothing ever goes wrong with it, ever. #AIsucks

So, I hung out with one of my DJ friends last night. He's been rather quiet on Meta/FB/IG, but he's been very active on Signal! He and his friends were the ones leaking info about the plans for the #Datacenter in #LewistonME, and their efforts stopped it in its tracks!

#WritersCoffeeClub 12.19 — If you were to teach a writing course, what would be the most important lesson?

Oh, gosh. Okay, let me think about this.

Lesson: That creativity has value, and AI will be the end of creativity and hard work. Stay on course. Remain hardworking and forever use your superpower — because that's exactly what creativity is, and we all have it.

Aaaarrrgh! Except my ability to turn off Copilot in Word is gone with update 12/09. So even though it's gone everywhere else, I'm going to have to roll back the latest version to get rid of this crap. #CrapPilot #AISucks

I feel a little bad for guys named Al, in our current tech environment where sans-serif fonts are standard and LLMs are enshittifying the internet. #AISucks

Two portraits are displayed side-by-side against a textured, red and grey background. The person on the left has dark, curly hair styled in a large afro and is wearing a white puffer jacket. They are looking slightly to the left of the frame, with a neutral expression. The person on the right has similarly dark, curly hair, but with a shorter, more defined cut, and is wearing a white, fluffy fur coat. They are also looking to the left with a similar neutral expression, and both people are wearing earrings. The background is a series of vertical stripes in alternating red and grey tones, creating a dynamic texture.

As he says, the original, disastrous 'restoration' was made by a person who should have not been let NEAR a painting, such was their gross ineptitude and lack of understanding.

Yet here we: watching the grossest, infantile minds liquidise the triumphs of human expression into a tasteless gruel.

Imagine, 50 years from now 'Data Restorers' picking through the code of a billion stolen fragments, trying to reveal identity of an artist and their intent.

The Strange Disappearance of an #AntiAI #Activist

#SamKirchner wants to save the world from artificial superintelligence. He’s been missing for two weeks.

By Kaitlyn Tiffany, December 4, 2025

Excerpt: "The reaction from the broader #AISafety movement was fast and consistent. Many disavowed violence. One group, #PauseAI, a much larger AI-safety activist group than #StopAI, specifically disavowed Kirchner. PauseAI is notably staid—it includes property damage in its definition of violence, for instance, and doesn’t allow volunteers to do anything illegal or disruptive, such as chain themselves to doors, barricade gates, and otherwise trespass or interfere with the operations of AI companies. 'The kind of protests we do are people standing at the same place and maybe speaking a message,' the group’s CEO, Maxime Fournes, told me, 'but not preventing people from going to work or blocking the streets.'

"This is one of the reasons that Stop AI was founded in the first place. Kirchner and others, who’d met in the PauseAI #Discord server, thought that that genteel approach was insufficient. Instead, Stop AI situated itself in a tradition of more confrontational protest, consulting #GeneSharp’s 1973 classic, The #MethodsOfNonviolentAction, which includes such tactics as #SitIns, '#NonviolentObstruction,' and 'seeking imprisonment.'

"In its early stages, the movement against unaccountable AI development has had to face the same questions as any other burgeoning social movement: How do you win broad support? How can you be palatable and appealing while also being sufficiently pointed, extreme enough to get attention but not so much that you sabotage yourself? If the stakes are as high as you say they are, how do you act like it?

"#MichaëlTrazzi, an activist who went on a hunger strike outside #Google #DeepMind’s London headquarters in September, also believes that AI could lead to human extinction. He told me that he believes that people can do things that are extreme enough to 'show we are in an emergency' while still being nonviolent and nondisruptive. (PauseAI also discourages its members from doing hunger strikes.)"

In 2019, Australian radiology company i-Med shared 750,000 chest scans with an AI startup without the consent of patients. The images dated as far back as 2006. Some of the scans were taken on unconscious patients in emergency who could not give consent.

The images were "de-identified", but de-identification is basically meaningless when we're talking about chest scans; like teeth, every chest is unique and it's very easy to identify someone by the features on their scans.

The government has made no move to strengthen privacy rights in Australia – in fact the opposite. The government is now handing this data wholesale to for-profit AI companies.

Essay - How the climate conversation went punk

From #SlowFashion to #GuerrillaGardening, the internet has transformed solarpunk, a literary movement, into an alternative lifestyle trend.

Written by Sonal Gupta
Mumbai | Updated: November 20, 2025

Excerpt: "In 2020, #SolarPunkFarms cropped up in California as a #communal living space whose inhabitants grow and share their own food. The leftovers are sent to local markets. They have designed their #greenhouse after the animations of #HayaoMiyazaki. In fact, the works of the #StudioGhibli founder have found resonance among solarpunks, as he places nature as a character in his plots. In his visions, nature is at its most beautiful—lush greenery, rays of light, the dew on leaves, and the wind blowing life into trees.

"Though these changes are encouraging, it’s ironic that as we move past dystopian visions, the #capitalists of the world, running in the #AI race, threaten to steer us to the very future. The use of AI itself depletes water resources and generates immense amounts of greenhouse gases and electronic waste. If we are to live in a world where technology exists in harmony with #nature, #activists, stakeholders, and individuals must actively call for more #SustainableSolutions, #AffirmativeAction, and policy changes.

"If cyberpunk warned us of what happens when technology consumes humanity, solarpunk invites us to imagine what is possible when humanity reclaims technology. It reminds us that hope, like sunlight, is a renewable resource too."
