#so many people talking to that microsoft bot like give your head a shake

[heart-forge]

hey afaik this hasn't happened yet but don't feed my stuff into AIs, no matter what friendly neighbourhood corporation will put a silly hat on Crave (I routinely link to artists who can be paid to put Crave in the silly hat of your dreams). AI makes job searching, something that is already a Sisyphean nightmare, a billion times worse, and I am directly opposed to the idea of training a non sentient program (sentient probably wouldn't be better but as it is, "teach it to learn but not to think because then it might not spend 24 hours a day shitting out money" seems a little unethical) to shit out money for the most annoying people you can possibly think of. Chat bots, AI art, all of it could have a place in a better society that wasn't on pins and needles ready to exploit it in order to put people out of work, injure, maim, and steal.

This blog is unequivocally against the recreational use of AI, because it trains the AI to more robust which them allows for corporate and broad institutional misuse (because a company developing an AI doesn't care about generating fanfic for you for free, it cares about military and government contracts). AIs recognising human faces doesn't stop at making you into a silly painting, it actively harms people in war zones and at protests. AIs being able to recreate hyper realistic images from being trained on stolen art become propaganda machines for the system. At minimum, AIs being able to imitate human speech by being trained on dialogue and voice via writing will destroy jobs, if not something more insidious that it hasn't had the opportunity to showcase yet.

Stop hanging out with bots online.
