didn’t know JK Rowling is into Lemmy now

great, now enjoy that 10 times worse when genAI is used to make skeleton crews an even bigger issue and increase worker exploitation

it’s called having a conscience, you might wanna try it

except genAI has proven no purpose. this is like saying “look at how many jobs bankers replaced! we just used to eat for free, now we have to work our entire lives for it or starve!”

no, what you want is audiobookbay

cars aren’t investment instruments, they already knew that before buying it. a car loses value as soon as it exits the dealership

except I can, who’s gonna stop me? sure, I will judge them less because of attenuating circumstances but they could sell their car and buy another one. providing Tesla with data from your car and also paying subscriptions is unethical once he came out as a Nazi

I’d argue that giving money to a Nazi is the actual dick move. people reminding you that you’re driving a swasticar is actually doing you a solid

no, you just have a very mainstream liberal view of how power actually works. it’s not just party in charge = this is the political course of the country

there are polls saying they could come in second in the elections this month. and some CDU members planning a coalition. I wouldn’t be so optimistic. regardless if they win or not, the mainstream parties have already adopted their Nazi propaganda to win over their base so their goal is already being enacted

lol, the AfD is literally in the Bundestag and all state parliaments

only if you assume their Nazi problem ever went away

I’m a leftist that wants to abolish copyright but I believe that genAI stans are closeted copyrightists. how else could you as a leftist look at massive corporations lobbying to further destroy labor rights via AI colonialism, using it for mass layoffs, colonizing culture in a way that hasn’t been seen since Europeans extracting resources and knowledge from Africa AND still claim that you support workers and marginalized people?

I think they spent so much time behind a terminal that they started to believe they too could one day own their own little fiefdom in Silicon Valley.

the “move fast and break things” mentality manifests itself in anarchist instances like db0 thinking they can liberate the workers if they just lick the boots of their tech overlords hard enough and mimick the way they speak.

I think the reason why tech oligarchs love genAI so much is because they want to create a new world shaped by copyright 2.0 similarly to how crypto shills peddle the web 3.0 gospel.

LLM can be used for unclogging a shit pipe if you wish. doesn’t mean it’s gonna be a good idea

we’re talking about genAI here not AI in general. let’s not kid ourselves…

except calculators function as a disability aid if you have discalculia and actually foster your math skills instead of hallucinating a wrong result for your input

I can’t find any sources saying Red 40 has been banned. You’re probably confusing it with the recent Red 3 ban by the FDA?

Speaking of the FDA Red 3 ban, this decision was motivated by the Delaney Clause, not by any scientific evidence showing harm to humans. The FDA’s own studies found it safe for human consumption, yet the aforementioned outdated legislation gives them a legal obligation to deem said ingredients unsafe. source:

Studies showed that male rats exposed to very high levels of Red #3 developed thyroid tumors. Here’s the crucial context: this occurred through a hormone mechanism specific to male rats that doesn’t exist in humans. The FDA’s own analysis shows a 210-fold safety margin between typical human exposure (0.25 mg/kg body weight per day) and levels causing effects in rats (35.8 mg/kg per day).

Even more telling: studies in other animals - including female rats, mice, gerbils, and dogs - showed no cancer effects. Human studies have consistently failed to show evidence of harm at normal exposure levels.

Some additional context you might find useful.

For the same reasons, Red 40 causing cancer in mice in really high roses doesn’t imply a causation of harm to humans
