Here’s a book about people describing similar experiences during the nazification of another country, it’s called They Thought They Were Free. I’m going to spoiler a link to a copy so it doesn’t autoload a swastika on our cool people board. This book isn’t about politics, it’s about how it feels when your country falls to fascism.

25·4 days agoGENEVA, Switzerland — On Tuesday, United Nations’ flagship platform for artificial intelligence, The AI for Good Global Summit 2025, kicked off in Geneva. But the commencement of the summit wasn’t without controversy. Hours before the keynote speaker, Abeba Birhane—founder and lead of the TCD AI Accountability Lab (AIAL) and one of Time magazine’s 2023 100 Most Influential People in AI—was set to take the stage, she was asked by organizers to remove some of her slides.
Specifically, the organizers wanted Birhane to “remove anything that mentions ‘Palestine’ ‘Israel’ and replace ‘genocide’ with ‘war crimes‘” and “a slide that explains illegal data torrenting by Meta.”
“In the end, it was either remove everything that names names (big tech particularly) and remove logos or cancel my talk,” Birhane, whose research focuses on algorithmic bias and AI ethics and fairness, wrote in a Bluesky post.
Whelp I guess we now know you can’t beat the TESCREAL cult by showing up to their propaganda summits and trying to do a TED Talk.
imagine being Nathan Fielder and doing all that work to try and improve airline safety just to be splattered into oblivion by a bombardment of 737s crashing into LA 😞
11·6 days agobelieve that i’ve seen versions of this attack where the spammer makes a few innocuous non-spam (but not contribution either) posts before going full LLM bot
A more critical weakness is that these accounts only posted obvious spam; they made no effort to build up a plausible persona. Generating plausible human posts is more difficult, but broadly feasible with current LLM technology.
i will have to screenshot next time and see what people think
obviously they could be hijacked accounts and i might just be extremely judgey of your average twitter flight account
There is no room here for your credulity. No, polls are not accurate. No, the Walmart tax dodge charity foundation is not “reputable.”
i’m reporting the post because it is from a blatant disinfo house that spreads rhetoric about “critical race theory” and other obvious dogwhistles
it is not a coincidence that AI is being pushed so hard by conservative racists
i totally agree and i know a lot of people working for terrible companies whom i should give a lot more shit
MSFT is about as evil and shitty as a corpo can get. Helps that their products are terrible and anti-user. Anyway I hope everyone who gets laid off repents and uses their knowledge to harm the corpo.

*and thanks for bringing your comment back, it was civil and i was happy to clarify

just ain’t the case, this is a thing that happens sometimes at monied levels of capitalist event planning in Imperial Anglophone countries, not in day-to-day life for all the Volk
don’t pretend like western governments have this kind of reach and power, it will cause people trapped in their borders to kill themselves
People post nasty anti-social shit like this on lemmy and for what? and then you get a bunch of other accounts that just pop on to post “oh, and I just love my spotify, I just love to keep giving money to anti-social parasites.” Insufferable.
star upside down?
beard looks good, especially if you keep the lines tight like you do with your haircut
i would clock those as conservative dad
no offense to you or your style lilbokchoy
