every improvement in measurement finds worse news. thats not uncertainty. thats the answer
I just have so many questions, if this is part of the actual branding⌠why?
It being AI slop aside (more people need to be mad about this), it just looks awful? It genuinely makes me uncomfortable to watch?
So far, AI has:
- Ruined Memory Prices
- Game Optimization due to relying more on fake frames and AI upscaling solution rather than optimizing first.
- Social Media since half of the content now is AI Slop
- Made fake movie & game leaks so easy to make that you keep seeing them everywhere (more AI slop)
- Wrongfully flag Content Creators for Spam and delete their channels
- Made every app have some useless AI slapped onto it
Why do we need this much AI for again?
iHeartRadio has banned its radio stations from playing AI-generated music or using AI-generated personalities, as part of its âGuaranteed Humanâ program.
This is awful and beyond the realms of what anyone would see as basic decency for human beings.
It's awful not just for trans people but for anyone who doesn't present with narrow stereotypes of
femininity and doesnt want the state policing women's appearance.
Gaza has been a testing ground for >
- testing acceptance of killing civilians
- testing AI devises aimed at killing
- testing population total control
- testing new weapons
- testing torture
- testing media control, algorithm, PR, narrative
All those tests will be useful when turned against US/EU populations.
Yes, you heard it. This is a  micro  test that will be applied at a  macro  level, to average Joe in the US, in the EU.
When fighting for Palestinians, we donât only fight against a genocide, for human rights, for decency, for morality.
We also fight for our future, our humanity, our self-determinations and freedoms.
Anas Sarwar called John Swinney "elitist" at FMQ's. Here's Sarwar defending his decision to send his children to a ÂŁ10,000 a year elite private school.
Any broadcast outlet covering FMQ's should show this too. If we can find this clip then so can BBC Scotland and STV.
Apart from the utter bizarreness of Starmer's vision of a progressive patriotism, it's also totally out of step with the lives of working-class people.
Nobody paints their fence anymore because they are stuck renting for life. They don't even have gardens because they are living in grotty tower blocks and mouldy new builds.
Nobody enjoys a "half-time orange" â whatever the hell that is â because subsidised sports clubs have been shut down, and leisure centres have been knocked down or privatised.
Nobody even knows their neighbours because they are forced to move every one or two years to avoid rent increases from their millionaire landlord.
Starmer's white-picket-fence, 'Cool Britannia' vision is nothing but a middle-class, suburban fantasy land.
It's a distant dream for ordinary Brits; a decades-old echo of times gone by. It rings so hollow that it screeches in your ears, and makes you realise how low our society has fallen.
10 years ago, a child refugee washing up on a beach caused international backlash.
today, people laugh at it, and spend two years cheering on the bombing of 1 million captive children,
