IN THE FALL OF 2020, GIG WORKERS IN VENEZUELA POSTED A SERIES OF images to online forums where they gathered to talk shop. The photos were mundane, if sometimes intimate, household scenes captured from low angles—including some you really wouldn’t want shared on the Internet.
In one particularly revealing shot, a young woman in a lavender T-shirt sits on the toilet, her shorts pulled down to mid-thigh.
The images were not taken by a person, but by development versions of iRobot’s Roomba J7 series robot vacuum. They were then sent to Scale AI, a startup that contracts workers around the world to label audio, photo, and video data used to train artificial intelligence.
They were the sorts of scenes that internet-connected devices regularly capture and send back to the cloud—though usually with stricter storage and access controls. Yet earlier this year, MIT Technology Review obtained 15 screenshots of these private photos, which had been posted to closed social media groups.
The photos vary in type and in sensitivity. The most intimate image we saw was the series of video stills featuring the young woman on the toilet, her face blocked in the lead image but unobscured in the grainy scroll of shots below. In another image, a boy who appears to be eight or nine years old, and whose face is clearly visible, is sprawled on his stomach across a hallway floor. A triangular flop of hair spills across his forehead as he stares, with apparent amusement, at the object recording him from just below eye level.
Tumblr media
iRobot—the world’s largest vendor of robotic vacuums, which Amazon recently acquired for $1.7 billion in a pending deal—confirmed that these images were captured by its Roombas in 2020.
Ultimately, though, this set of images represents something bigger than any one individual company’s actions. They speak to the widespread, and growing, practice of sharing potentially sensitive data to train algorithms, as well as the surprising, globe-spanning journey that a single image can take—in this case, from homes in North America, Europe, and Asia to the servers of Massachusetts-based iRobot, from there to San Francisco–based Scale AI, and finally to Scale’s contracted data workers around the world (including, in this instance, Venezuelan gig workers who posted the images to private groups on Facebook, Discord, and elsewhere).
Together, the images reveal a whole data supply chain—and new points where personal information could leak out—that few consumers are even aware of.

There’s a couple of things happening on the information technology side of the veterinary industry at the moment:
Practice owners are increasingly aware that they need an online presence (website plus social media), but most of them have minimal interest in actually making one because they want to focus on patients. You know, the work they signed up for in the first place.
Various tech companies sell packages to most vet practices doing some or all of this, including ‘writing SEO optimised articles for your website’.
While many of those articles were copy-paste, now they are often ‘unique’ which looks more and more AI generated.
At best, this looks like shoddy articles written for a machine instead of for people. At worst it generates information which is not current or outright false. In the middle, you get articles reminding you to brush your bird’s teeth.
So I find myself wondering if it’s even worth the effort to write informative content and it mostly feels like it doesn’t. Not compared to how fast and easily AI stuff can be churned out. Seriously, there are so, so many articles and videos out there about how to use AI to automate content generation or digital shops… it’s depressing.
But it probably is still worth writing things because it’s always been worth trying to combat misinformation. It’s just that misinformation and weird information can be generated so much more rapidly.
And I realise that whatever I put out on the internet might be chopped up and rearranged in the AI blender, but somebody has to keep telling the internet that you don’t have to brush your bird’s teeth.

"No Tech for Apartheid’s protest is as much about what the public doesn’t know about Project Nimbus as what it does. The contract is for Google and Amazon to provide AI and cloud computing services to the Israeli government and military, according to the Israeli finance ministry, which announced the deal in 2021.
Nimbus reportedly involves Google establishing a secure instance of Google Cloud on Israeli soil, which would allow the Israeli government to perform large-scale data analysis, AI training, database hosting, and other forms of powerful computing using Google’s technology, with little oversight by the company.
Google documents, first reported by the Intercept in 2022, suggest that the Google services on offer to Israel via its Cloud have capabilities such as AI-enabled facial detection, automated image categorization, and object tracking."

By Gary Wilson
The United States military has shifted toward AI and “data driven” warfare. A new revolving door is putting senior Pentagon officials into executive positions or as advisors to the Big Tech companies.
Over the past two years, global events have further fueled the Pentagon’s demand for Silicon Valley technologies, including the deployment of drones and AI-enabled weapon systems in Ukraine and Gaza, as well as the Pentagon’s AI arms race directed against China.

On the topic of generative AI, what jobs are game companies looking to replace with it first? I imagine that concept art is going to be one the easiest things to replace and I harass some games are using AI to fill out voice over work ( AI is a major sticking point between game companies and the voice actor union right now), but what other jobs are at risk of being replaced?
Honestly, right now it's actually rather difficult to replace entire jobs with generative AI. It's much more of a situation where AI would be used to augment and fill in small knowledge gaps rather than replace contributions from individual developers.
Tumblr media
Recently, a development company called Keywords attempted to build a 2D game internally using only generative AI tools. Keywords is a well-established co-development studio that has helped out with development on many large projects like Alan Wake, CoD: MW3 (2023), Super Mario Bros Wonder, Mortal Kombat 1, Starfield, Madden, Diablo IV, Skull and Bones, Baldur's Gate 3, Elden Ring, and so on. After six months the Keywords team [reported on their findings]:
Whilst the project team started small, it identified over 400 tools, evaluating and utilising those with the best potential. Despite this, we ultimately utilised bench resource from seven different game development studios as part of the project, as the tooling was unable to replace talent. One of the key learnings was that whilst Gen AI may simplify or accelerate certain processes, the best results and quality needed can only be achieved by experts in their field utilising Gen AI as a new, powerful tool in their creative process.
Tumblr media
This gels with my own experience with Gen AI - it's an expanded Dunning-Kruger situation. Gen AI can create all kinds of content or results but it requires actual expertise in the field in order to separate the wheat from the chaff. Without having the skills needed to determine if something is good or not, the Gen AI results aren't (yet) good enough to use to build something.

Blackstone Surges to Record High: A Closer Look at Their Impressive Q3 Results
Blackstone, the world's largest commercial property owner, achieved a remarkable milestone on Thursday as its shares surged to a record high. This impressive performance comes on the heels of better-than-expected third-quarter results and an improved real estate investment performance. Let’s dive into the factors driving this success and what it means for the market.
Key Highlights from Q3
In the third quarter, Blackstone invested or committed a staggering $54 billion, marking the highest amount in over two years. This surge in investment activity is attributed to the Federal Reserve’s recent rate cut in September, which significantly reduced the cost of capital. The U.S. central bank’s previous rate hikes had stymied real estate deals and financing, leading to increased defaults in the office market affected by corporate cost-cutting and the rise of hybrid and remote work.
Stephen Schwarzman, Blackstone’s Chief Executive, emphasized the positive impact of the rate cut, stating, “Easing the cost of the capital will be very positive for Blackstone’s asset values. It will be a catalyst for transaction activity.” This sentiment was echoed by Jonathan Gray, President and Chief Operating Officer, who noted that while commercial real estate sentiment is improving, it remains cautious.
Strategic Investments and Areas of Focus
Blackstone has been proactive in planting the “seeds of future value” by substantially increasing its pace of investment. A key area of focus is the revolutionary advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) and the associated digital and energy infrastructure. In September, Blackstone announced the $16 billion purchase of AirTrunk, the largest data center operator in the Asia-Pacific region. This acquisition is part of Blackstone’s $70 billion investment in data centers, with over $100 billion in prospective pipeline development.
Other notable investment themes include renewable energy transition, private credit, and India’s emergence as a major economy. These strategic areas highlight Blackstone’s commitment to innovation and growth.
Recovery in Commercial Real Estate
The Blackstone Real Estate Income Trust (BREIT), a benchmark for the industry, reported a 93% slump in investor stock redemption requests from a peak. This indicates a recovery in investor confidence and a shift towards positive net inflows of capital. BREIT’s core-plus real estate investments, which include stable, income-generating, high-quality real estate, showed a 0.5% decline in Q3 performance, an improvement from a 3.8% drop over the past 12 months. The riskier opportunistic real estate investments posted a 1.1% increase, reversing previous declines.
Student Housing and Data Centers
Among rental housing, student housing has emerged as a significant focus. Wesley LePatner, set to become BREIT CEO on Jan. 1, highlighted the structural undersupply in the U.S. student housing market, emphasizing its potential as an all-weather asset class. BREIT has consistently met investor redemption requests for several months, showcasing strong performance.
Furthermore, the demand for data centers remains robust. QTS, which Blackstone took private in 2021, recorded more leasing activity last year than the preceding three years combined. Such sectors, once considered niche, are now integral to the commercial real estate landscape.
Financial Performance and Outlook
Blackstone’s third-quarter net income soared to approximately $1.56 billion, up from $920.7 million a year earlier. Distributable earnings, profit available to shareholders, rose to $1.28 billion from $1.21 billion. Total assets under management jumped 10% to about $1.11 trillion, driven by inflows to its credit and insurance segment.
The Path Forward
As Blackstone continues to navigate the evolving market landscape, it remains focused on identifying “interesting places to deploy capital.” With a robust investment strategy and a keen eye on emerging trends, Blackstone is well-positioned for future growth.

Our professor showed us the “how many R’s in strawberry” trick, except with other words.
She also reminded us, that EACH of these four query’s took so much energy that one could power a light bulb for 20 minutes straight.
Also, “That aside, training a large language model like GPT-3 can consume millions of litres of fresh water, and running GPT-3 inference for 10-50 queries consumes 500 millilitres of water, depending on when and where the model is hosted. GPT-4, the model currently used by ChatGPT, reportedly has a much larger size and hence likely consumes more water than GPT-3,” says Professor Shaolei Ren
It only takes about 6,000 generated words to use the same amount of power as fully charging a smartphone.
From the same article ^, “Generating images was by far the most energy- and carbon-intensive AI-based task. Generating 1,000 images with a powerful AI model, such as Stable Diffusion XL, is responsible for roughly as much carbon dioxide as driving the equivalent of 4.1 miles in an average gasoline-powered car.”
And finally. They want to reopen THREE MILE ISLAND. I don’t specifically care that they’re using nuclear power, but reopening Three Mile Island seems like extremely poor choice. There are 54 nuclear power plants in this country.
And they chose the one that had a meltdown.

Futures Made of Virtual Insanity...
Tumblr media
Every few decades, there's a new technological something or the other.
Some innovation, something to wow.
Something brand new.
An iron lung.
A shiny new space suit.
Gilded wings.
An iPod.
A Walkman.
A Discman.
A radio.
A microwave.
A television.
A computer.
LCD, HD.
4K, 8K.
Google Glass, Metaverse.
AOL Instant Messenger, Yahoo Mail.
Netscape Navigator, Geocities, Angelfire.
Sidekick, iPhone.
3G, 4G, 5G.
Text messages, Wifi.
Xbox, Playstation, NES, Atari.
Have you figured out yet how fucking fake, forced, contrived & scripted it all is?
Do you really think they haven't developed a battery for cell phones yet that can last a week? A month?
Did you know that plastic is actually extremely durable yet 9 billion tons of disposable plastic has been produced since the 1940s?
Why do you think that is?
Do you actually think they give us new technology when its invented?
Are you aware we still haven't figured out how ancient Egypt built the pyramids?
If we're so technologically advanced, why haven't we built our own pyramids?
HD or high definition has actually been around since at least the 1990s if not earlier.
The technology for supersonic commercial flights has been available since the 1970s.
What's presented as new & shiny was actually invented millennia ago by ancient Egyptians. Who were themselves aliens.
They are stealing from ancient Egyptian technology then presenting it to you as new and impressive.
They release a bit at a time to the public literally thousands of years after the original inventions to great fanfare & money.
They have had the ability to clone, gene splice.
Human experimentation.
Interspecies hybridization.
Everything in X Files represented truth.
Government lies, purchasing technology from aliens in exchange for humans that were then harvested for their DNA & experimented on for biological warfare.
Every age is unprecedented...until the next age.
Don't you see how fucking contrived that is?
Every age is unrivaled and revolutionary...until it is surpassed, sometimes a mere twenty years later, by a new and unrivaled revolutionary age.
Wash, rinse, repeat every few decades.
Still, you don't see a pattern?
Skunkworks at Lockheed Martin "developed" stealth aircraft with cloaking capabilities in the 90s.
All of this was stolen from ancient Egypt.
Flip phones, smartphones, iPhones.
Dial up, wifi, 3G, 4G, 5G.
So, what will 10G be like?
HD, LCD. 4K, 8K.
What will 16K be like? What about 32K? What about 48K?
Have you figured out how fucking fake & contrived & scripted all this bullshit technology is?
The metaverse has existed for literal decades.
They stole all of this from ancient Egypt and then present it to the public at intervals of a few decades as "technological advancements", "innovations" and "wizardry".
Snowcrash spoke of the metaverse back in the 90s.
Ready Player One depicted it in film two decades after Snowcrash.
Facebook developed it "in real life" a few years ago then paused it.
The covid shut down was the soft reset for AI & robotics which is when they are going to unleash the metaverse, AR & VR & the elimination of at least 80% of all current jobs.
They stole all of this and they keep it hidden then release it to the public bit by bit at regular, predictable, timed & scripted intervals as "brand new technology".
Haven't you noticed any obvious patterns yet?
The present is always ever evolving and what is considered cutting-edge today, just five years from now, will be considered the "distant past".
Why would anyone watch TV in 8K? Thank god we have 32K now!
Why would a song ever last for 4 minutes? Thank god the average song length is now two minutes.
In just twenty years, two full minutes was lost.
What happens when songs become one minute on average?
What happens when two hour movies are shortened to one hour?
What happens when episodic TV that is a half an hour or an hour becomes TikToks and Youtube Shorts?
What happens when books are no longer printed and published and everything is Audible or its presented in comic book manga style?
Who would ever want to read hundreds of words with no pictures, color, sound or audio?
No matter how many times this cycle is repeated, it is rarely questioned.
Now, there are Smart TVs! And phones! And refrigerators! And ovens! And washing machines!
All interconnected via wireless bluetooth device!
Alexa can tell me if the ingredients I need for my dinner are in my fridge then pre-set my oven for me while I am on the way home from work.
Five years ago is now an eternity.
A four minute song is now an eternity.
Reading a book -- not listening to a book, not reading a manga or comic book which are pictures & words -- reading an actual book with nothing but actual words is becoming an anachronism.
A book, not a tablet -- not staring at a screen, not scrolling, not "tapping" to turn the page.
An actual book, with pages, where you the human, turn the pages of the book with your hand.
Ice Age, Stone Age.

THE FLAWLESS IS FLAWED
The contemporary obsession with physical perfection, fueled by the rise of beauty therapy and the proliferation of beauty clinics, has transformed natural human variation into a medical condition in need of treatment. This paradoxical trend, where unique physical attributes are stigmatized as flaws, underscores the insidious power of societal beauty standards.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The beauty industry, with its arsenal of invasive procedures and chemical treatments, has successfully rebranded natural aging and individual differences as defects to be rectified. This medicalization of beauty reinforces the notion that physical imperfections are not merely aesthetic preferences but rather pathological conditions requiring professional intervention.
Tumblr media
Ironically, while natural features are pathologized, artificial enhancements, such as plastic surgery and cosmetic fillers, are often celebrated as signs of beauty and success. This double standard highlights the inherent contradiction of a culture that simultaneously denigrates natural beauty and glorifies artificial perfection.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
By promoting a narrow and unattainable ideal of beauty, the beauty industry perpetuates a cycle of body dissatisfaction expectations and embrace the diversity of human appearance. Rather than seeking to eliminate imperfections, we should strive to cultivate a society that values individuality and celebrates the beauty of difference.
