[More Perfect Union @MorePerfectUS]

It's hard to forget that when they keep firing tens of thousands of people, and blaming AI.

nyt can you please have some decency about a decorated war veteran combat surgeon who saved tammy duckworth's life, who treated 9/11 first responders and was in gaza during the genocide. i get that he's muslim and antizionist but this is a shameful and racist subheader!

For pride month you can't say "let me get this straight...", you have to say "just so we're queer..."

“How did we go from paper straws to data centres?”

Because no one listened to the environmentalists who said unchecked corporate pollution was the bigger issue.

hey @Twitch hear me out: internal captions for the native clip system. just something simple like a bold font with white or yellow options. YEESH. Everyone would be using the native tool. Trust.

The United States doesn’t even believe teeth should be part of a health plan lmao

[selina is ᐸcuteᐳ and ᐸpopᐳ @inkblotPrincess]

we're about to see the worst announcement of all time

[Ms.K @mskmalibu]

Being rude to me unprovoked really wakes up the menace buried deep inside. Like I choose to live my life on cutie patootie juice but it’s some four loko back here somewhere. Let’s be very clear

[Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz]

This is what these social media ID verification/age verification laws are really about, and you’re an idiot if u think any of this is about “protecting children.”

[Pop Crave @PopCrave]

Mark Ruffalo endorses Tom Steyer for Governor of California.

[Sen. Bernie Sanders @SenSanders]

There are many deeply concerning aspects of AI.

Pope Leo highlights one: “If technology becomes the ultimate criterion, the human person risks being reduced to data, a cog in a machine or a commodity.”

Bottom line: AI must benefit ALL of humanity, not just Big Tech oligarchs.

I'm telling you: this level of bot micromanagement IS bad for the human. To have a bot dictating what you do, how you act, how you speak in real time FOR A SPONSOR is wild work.

the bots are cookin' us!

[Zach Bussey 🇨🇦 @zachbussey]

Amazon Ads to launch two AI Twitch Sponsorship tools at Twitchcon.

Campaign Assist will analyze how creators speak during sponsorships and prompt them on what they need to say, change tone, etc.

Chat Sentiment Analysis will process all chat messages to determine reactions.

"reccs not being influenced by viewbots" is so so silly: ofc view botting helps! if folks see 3k are watching a streamer, psychologically, they get curious! what's the buzz? where's the party?

[Dexerto @Dexerto]

Twitch CEO Dan Clancy says viewbotters aren't helping streamers get real viewers, saying it has a small impact on 'discover'

“If you’re using recommended [sorting], you’re not being influenced by viewbots, and it doesn’t help promote the channel”

[Vee Dries @VeeDries]

oof, my vibe based analysis getting validated is always so sweet. *chefs kiss bb*
