"why don't #techbro execs understand that their consumers don't want #AI in everythin-"

they do. they just don't care, because the broke-ass bottom 90% #consumers have no impact on the #company's stock price. we are all officially too poor to be considered part of the real #economy, and this is how you know.

"AI could invent free renewable energy."

Or, y'know, we could deploy the stuff that works and is already cheaper than the fossil alternative, while doing the hard political work of figuring out how to pass the savings on to households, balancing the interests of shareholders and ratepayers.

#Trump tries to block state #AI laws himself after #Congress decided not to

Congressional #Republicans recently decided not to include a Trump-backed plan to block state AI laws in the National #Defense Authorization Act ( #NDAA ), although it could be included in other legislation. Sen. #TedCruz (R-Texas) has also failed to get congressional backing for legislation that would punish states with AI laws.

Trump tries to block state AI laws himself after Congress decided not to

Trump claims state laws force AI makers to embed “ideological bias” in models.

AI is already part of Linux's plumbing - whether developers like it or not https://zdnet.com/article/ai-is-part-of-linux-plumbing-developers/ via @ZDNet & @sjvn

#Linux maintainers are already using #AI with the Linux kernel. AI programming, however, will take longer.

AI is already part of Linux's plumbing - whether developers like it or not

AI is quietly doing some of Linux's dirtiest work, but not everyone is comfortable with it.

Online age verification isn't the same as a quick ID flash: it's surveillance. These systems collect your data and undermine your ability to anonymously access and discuss sensitive topics online. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/12/why-isnt-online-age-verification-just-showing-your-id-person

Why Isn’t Online Age Verification Just Like Showing Your ID In Person?

Apparently, down under, you can show a picture of a parent, and the AI will accept that.

Also, a picture of a Golden Retriever works also, but I have no knowledge of the age of the dog in human years.

I am so stubborn about not using AI.
You have no idea.

I will even go as far as writing my own texts, drawing my own images, writing my own code, and reading the whole article or email just by myself. Crazy stuff.

@Em0nM4stodon Just as I do. I do not actively use #AI for my own purposes. Yet I know that #AI is used in other software, security systems etc. which I am forced to use, more or less - meaning it is difficult to avoid #AI completely.

The UK health service #NHS is using an #AI tool made by Anima. It hallucinated a set of false diagnoses for a patient, and backed it up with a fake hospital and fake address! The poor dude thought he had diabetes and angina 😱
