Amazon, Microsoft and Alphabet's Google have each recently abandoned construction of multibillion-dollar data centers over community opposition and now the companies are coming under shareholder pressure over the environmental impact of their projects. https://t.co/XOGC3lhFok
For those of you who are struggling with the state of the world, and find yourselves with tears or so much emotion it can feel overwhelming: I hope you never lose your capacity to experience empathy, because it makes you human. It is abnormal to not feel anything, and to blindly adapt to a fundamentally unjust world. Let your love move you to solidarity and action and community, to be an example for what is possible and help create a world that is different.
Ai could’ve been so good. It can detect cancer cells before a bloody scan can. It could’ve been so beneficial to the medical field. To Helping people.
But no. Yall would rather destroy the environment so you can watch a sentient stick break up with a teacup.
everything about this is a betrayal of these game’s artistry. painting over hand crafted intentional 3d art with shiny, wrinkly, sunken-in, porous, puckered, fraudulent filtered nonsense is deeply disrespectful. if you want this just watch gen-ai videos all day
Wanna quit my corporate job so bad bc of stuff like this I'm baffled at how people are using AI for slides when it's just grabbing those bullets and adding emojis instead PLUS it's an image so if you want to fix a word you need to regenerate it
btw salted books is a english only bookstore based in LISBOA whose owner is an expat that has admited to not caring about making the lives of the locals worse.

Let me get this straight…
OpenAI was founded as a nonprofit. Open source. For everyone. “To benefit humanity.”
Then he raised billions of dollars.
Then he closed the source code.
Then he converted to for-profit.
Then he scraped the entire internet without asking anyone.
Then he used YOUR writing YOUR art YOUR code to train his models.
Now he’s on stage saying you’ll pay HIM to access intelligence. Just like a water meter.
He stole all of your data. He built the product with your work. And now he’s going to bill you to use it…
Corporate greed has reached an all time high, and they’re not even hiding it anymore…
Volto a repetir: morre mais gente disto do que de homicídios. Mas homicídios é uma crise de insegurança que requer acção urgente do estado e da classe política; já isto é normal, acontece.
🚨 SAM ALTMAN: “People talk about how much energy it takes to train an AI model … But it also takes a lot of energy to train a human. It takes like 20 years of life and all of the food you eat during that time before you get smart.”
ARE WE NOTICING that nothing actually exists anymore??????? like so many physical stores are closing, everything is a subscription or an app, u can't play games without internet and u can't even guarantee that art is even made by people, like everything is just an illusion.
“Se eu tivesse cerca de 70% dos portugueses com apenas duas escolhas a rejeitar-me, eu pintava a cara de vermelho e tinha vergonha de dizer que podia liderar o que quer que fosse neste país." - Francisco Rodrigues dos Santos
Atenção, não é humor.
