David Todd McCartyI think who is getting hurt worse, possibly even more than photographers, are illustrators and painters. There’s really no way to tell the difference between an AI generated image and real art. Think about that the next time you use some bullshit AI art to illustrate your point.<a href="https://me.dm/tags/AntiAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#AntiAI</a> <a href="https://me.dm/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Art</a>

Alex ȘtefănescuPolitico, in what I assume is a temporary pause in higher level critical thinking, runs the following headline: "Albania turns to AI to beat corruption and join EU".<a href="https://www.politico.eu/article/albania-use-ai-artificial-intelligenve-join-eu-corruption/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.politico.eu/article/albania-use-ai-artificial-intelligenve-join-eu-corruption/</a>After reading the article, I propose an alternative:"Albanian officials to erase moral responsibility and dodge accountability by blaming the nefarious effects of their mismanagement on sparkling maths running on a computer".<a href="https://chaos.social/tags/antiai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antiai</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/antifascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antifascism</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/ai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ai</a>

Alex ȘtefănescuI appreciate the academic and rigorous effort to measure the bullshit that LLMs generate: <a href="https://machine-bullshit.github.io/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://machine-bullshit.github.io/</a> I just wish we would do away with the rhetoric that we're just aiming to make these models better. How about no? How about admitting that the premise is poisoned from the start?How about saying that holding everyone's labor, creativity and expression hostage for the sake of deskilling people and making them precarious is a horrible idea? <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/AI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AI</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/antifascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antifascism</a> <a href="https://chaos.social/tags/antiAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antiAI</a>

Chelsea ThomptoNew semester means new AI policy for the syllabus. This is drawn from my past policy, a very concise post by Mel Hogan on BlueSky, and from reading "Empire of AI" this summer. For context, this is for a creative coding class in an art department:ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE STATEMENT While the use of AI tools (including ChatGPT and other AI powered writing or image technologies) may be tempting, it is important to understand the following:Ethical Problems: All publicly available high profile LLMs are built using stolen data, exploitative labor practices, and require vast amounts of natural resources which worsens our climate crisis.Negative Impacts on Learning: Multiple studies have shown the AI use can erode creative and critical thinking skills, the very things you are here to cultivate.The Essence of Art: At its core, art is about cultivating one's own personal point of view and process. It is about making thousands of small choices that culminate in works that reflect who you are and what you care about. AI flattens and streamlines this process, ironing out all the wrinkles that make art interesting and robbing you of the opportunity to cultivate yourself through your practice.So, in this course we will not be using AI tools. If you are caught using AI for any class work, it will result in a zero on the associated assignment and perhaps referral to the Office of Undergraduate Academic Integrity depending on severity. The one exception to this rule is that if you desire to make work that critically engages with AI, you should consult with me before using any such tools. If approved, the use of AI tools must be properly cited and acknowledged in all submissions.<a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/academia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#academia</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/academicchatter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#academicchatter</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/antiai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#antiai</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/criticalAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#criticalAI</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/creativecoding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#creativecoding</a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a>

patricosOne concrete tool for this bullshit digital world: Linux Microsoft is going to implement AI and other shitifications to windows. So DON'T SUPPORT THEM! You may think you have to use win11 but really you don't. Find opensource to replace shitsources, learn to use YOUR PC YOUR WAY! yes, it might be difficult at the start but YOU will be at the helm. You will learn how your PC actually works. So lets stop being digital cowards, lets go penquin!

Cat Lady Kydia Music 🇺🇦Human musicians: be aware of newer Fedi profiles that post AI-generated music and artwork without disclosing! I listen to the music of every musician who follows me, but the shifty language in this person’s profile raised a red flag. Sure enough, when I checked out their SoundCloud, it was full of obvious AI music, album artwork, even song descriptions. Reported and blocked, b/c I def don’t want to give them any legitimacy.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ByeFelicia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ByeFelicia</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ProHuman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ProHuman</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AntiAI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AntiAI</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AIMusicSucks" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#AIMusicSucks</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/MusicProduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MusicProduction</a>
