Got through maybe ten minutes of a podcast on an 'Anti-AI' advocate and was like, "Yeah, this guy's totally pro AI." Sure enough he's selling a product that uses 'AI' as well as 'Persona' which ID's people with 'AI', is linked to Thiel, leaked ID data, etc. www.abc.net.au/listen/progr...

How does ProudlyHuman™ verify that I wrote my book, and AI didn't?

We use a combination of methods to determine human authorship. This includes matching the applicant name to the book author, a one-time identity check against a government-issued ID (performed by our partner Persona), secure credit card payment, legal declaration, and a suite of AI detection tools. Persona handles the ID upload directly under its own terms and privacy policy; Proudly Human only receives the verification outcome and never stores your ID.

It just seems very odd to limit it to Apple and Google. It's essentially locking me out of using gov apps.

Screenshot of GrapheneOS screen showing the myGov warning after attempting to login with the text, "Compromised device" above an image of a stylised phone with a diagonal line through it and the text below, "You can't use myGov app on this device as the system software is compromised. You can still use your myGov account through the website." Lastly a button below this to the myGov website.

I call this masterpiece, "Bit Foggy Innit?"

Picture looking out over a very foggy lake with some gumtree branches poking into view from the top and a duck near the left. You can barely see the water 'cause of how thick the fog is. It's a very fartsy image but not a very artsy one.

The Scorsese 'Absolute Cinema' meme but with the caption, "Absolute Enema".

I don't even know what this about but there seems to be a battle line being drawn so I'm here with popcorn. @elmcitytree.blacksky.app @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social

Screenshot of my Discovery feed showing Olúfẹ́mi's post (with seven comments, five reposts and seventy-three likes) saying, "EAT SHIT EZE" and then Jonathan's post (with no comments, one repost and six likes) saying, "Noooooooo. Not Eze!!!"

I didn't like, comment or repost either as there is no way I'm taking sides on what is clearly a controversial topic!

Oh wow, followup where he not only uses 'struck a chord', which is a pretty clear sign of ChatGPT brain in and of itself, but where he also does some very cool and normal racism and sexism.

Screenshot of another Shitter post where Tarric says, "Wow this has struch a chord, who would have thought Chat GPT assuming Australian women were attractive by default would annoy so many people :joy:"

Signifier and signified?

A 404 message saying, "There's nothing here..." and "We can't find the page you're looking for. Check the URL, or head back home." And finally a button labelled, "Go Home."

The 'Absolute Cinema' meme but with Horses in place of Cinema.

www.theguardian.com/australia-ne... This discussion annoyed me 'cause it ignored the obvious: that Albo was never a progressive or even a leftist. Like the quote in the image below essentially says, power doesn't corrupt, it reveals. #Auspol

“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test.“ ― Robert G. Ingersoll.

Commander Shepard was an engineer born to a decorated Alliance marine. In following her mother's example she served at Elysium where she faced death-defying odds against Batarian slavers to save her fellow soldiers. And I will go krogan berserker on anyone who claims she is anything else.

Okay, this asshole has to stop making me feel as if he's personally calling me out. I won't stand for it, dammit!

"In the period of stagnation that we find ourselves in, the confusion of state and society implies the confusion of political and social revolution. Nothing is more difficult for human beings than to realize, and to truly admit in thought and action, that they are not the center of the world but only occupants of a modest spot, somewhere to the left or to the right. This is true for the humans of all eras: they all want to be a peak or a goal or something special – even if they do not make the tiniest effort." — Gustav Landauer, “Revolution” in Revolution and Other Writings.

"What makes the spark catch fire is always the stupidity, brutality, or weakness of those who govern. The people, the thinkers, the poets are a powder keg, loaded with spirit and the power of creative destruction – this proves true every time. It allows us to believe in latent, accumulative force, even when a people is at its absolute lowest." — Gustav Landauer, “Revolution” in Revolution and Other Writings.

I know it's been said a lot but... MAGA is a cult. Also, what's with that article text? That is some seriously gross shit to be linking to an ad. Probably some sort of automated thing which is kinda even grosser. Shows how little these places actively consider what they're reporting on.

Djoran Keil@djorankeil· Jan 29

On the one hand, I don't think this is a real account and I'd wager many of the comments and likes are from bots as well. Probably also a honeypot. On the other, I DO see milder but similarly veined sentiment in so-called leftist spaces. Vengeance and reprisals are fascistic. This is not the way.

Screenshot of a BlueSky post with face and account name blacked out, with the following text:

When this is over, public executions are imperative. It's ugly and shocking but the American people have been exposed to this many times. Every mass shooting of innocent souls.

Now I want to see the corpses of the evil people that brought us all this carnage. Prison is too good for them.

Forgot about a little experiment I did with Google by turning on Ad Preferences to see if it could actually 'know' me through my browsing history and YouTube watches/likes. Happenstanced on the setting just now where it told me its results and...

Relationships: Married (nope)
Household Income: High income (lived below AU poverty line my whole life)
Education: Bachelor's degree (multiple failed attempts, none successful)
Industry: Not enough info (literally talk about writing all the time on every account connected to my identity)
Employer Size: Large employer (not employed)
Homeownership: Homeowners (in this country and economy? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!)
Parenting: Not parents (the only thing it got right)

Tell me again about how 'smart' AI is?

I wrote something about this.

TITLE: It's a Bob-Bob Life

Let's say you found the very tiniest 'thing' in the universe, something utterly indivisible, a true atom. I'm going to call it 'Bob'. Everything is made of Bobs. It's Bobs all the way down.

Because I am incredibly cruel and masochistic, I'm going to single out one Bob and eliminate every single other Bob in all of existence. Of Bobs, there can be only one.

Bob is now everything there is and everything there is, is Bob. Bob cannot experience anything, not even the abscence of experience. There is nothing other than Bob and Bob is devoid of all things not Bob. Bob cannot even be conscious because consciousness requires more than Bob.

Bob, ergo, does not exist because there is nothing other than Bob to confirm that Bob exists. Not even Bob can interact with Bob and Bob has nothing other than Bob to interact with.

Now, let's say I wasn't as cruel as I had previously indicated and had instead allowed for there to remain two Bobs. Bob can now interact with another Bob. Bob, ergo, now exists *because* of that potential to interact. This is a subjective experience. It can be nothing else because of the inherent requirement for an interaction to confirm existence.

Now let's expand that concept to the entire universe which still, to my knowledge at least, exists. Everything that is, exists in relation to everything else that is. Nothing exists or even can exist independent of anything else.

Every. Thing. Is. *Subjective*.

There is, therefore, no such thing as an objective reality. True objectivity would require non-existence.

So, in a very real sense one can reasonably argue that Bob is, in fact, everyone's uncle.

Just got asked on D&D Beyond for age verification. Like... it's a D&D site. Which is so G-rated it's not funny. Seriously, they are modded out the whazoo. You'd get more controversial content on Play School. I can only prove that I'm 8 years, 8 months, 28 days and 4 minutes old though :(

I understand less than nothing about any of this 22 page dense legalese document and contacting Gordon's is in and of itself a beareaucratic nightmare headfuck. They can automate taking money from people but can't figure out how to give it the fuck back. Assholes. #RoboDebt

Couldn't even get my damn name right in a reply to an email that both has my name in it and an email address using my name. I sometimes wonder if people like her will ever realise how vile a response this is and if they do, whether they'll even care. #AusPol
