Agreed. Just dropping a random link and headline is too vague. Basically just add in the lede and that should do it.

This. So much this

So… they’re gonna stop AI from doing it too… right?

No, I’m not Human is a great little game.

A full program of de-MAGAfication would require a book-length project. But for the purposes of this article, I will focus on two of the largest pustules of MAGA corruption, which come from very different ends of the societal spectrum: the Supreme Court, and X, the website formerly known as Twitter.

While social media is age-gated by the bill, AI chatbot services won’t be. “Chatbots are not as well-studied as the harm caused by social media  platforms,” Miller said during the press conference announcing the bill. “They don’t have the same social role.” With that said, the Safe Social Media Act also includes language around “AI chatbot services,” seemingly in response to OpenAI’s handling of the Tumbler Ridge shooting. As part of the bill, AI platforms are expected to mitigate the risk of chatbots “communicating harmful content” and engaging in harmful behavior, while also introducing “emergency measures” for dealing with crisis situations.

Seems like we’re seeing that this isn’t just about consumer surveillance but also pushing another platform

One memo reportedly described releasing it during a “dynamic political environment,” when privacy and civil liberties advocates would be distracted. Last week, WIRED reported that much of NameTag’s machinery was already built into the Meta AI app, downloaded by millions of users, as early as January, even as Meta publicly said it had made no final decision about face recognition.

When the county utility investigated, officials discovered two industrial-scale water hookups feeding a data center campus located 20 miles south of downtown Atlanta.

Is “AI” even worth it?

Seriously, is there really a major use case for LLM besides data collection (which they can still do without LLM)?

Ceccanti had been communicating with OpenAI’s chatbot for a few years. He used it initially as a tool to brainstorm ways to build a path to low-cost housing for his community in Clatskanie, Oregon, but eventually turned to it as a confidante. He would spend 12 hours a day typing to the bot, according to his wife. He had cut himself off from it after she, along with his friends, realized he was spiraling into beliefs that were detached from reality

“They developed grandiose beliefs about being on the verge of a major technological breakthrough, alongside classic manic symptoms such as impulsive spending, decreased need for sleep and, at the peak, auditory hallucinations,” said Sakata. “What stood out clinically was that the chatbot interactions did not generate the illness, but appeared to scaffold and reinforce beliefs that were already becoming pathological.”

Sad ending. Crazy how extremism works.

So blame the victim…?

But what about poor little Plasma?

Wow clickbait title…

It was Google, Reddit and Meta that complied
