My favorite subway graffiti right now is anti-friend hot takes.

Graffiti on ad reads "and is a living being — not AI!"

Graffiti reads "AI fuels isolation — reach into the real world!!"

“[O]n April 2nd, spurred on by his delusions, Donald Trump announced the biggest break in America’s trade policy in over a century—and committed the most profound, harmful and unnecessary economic error in the modern era.” [gift link]

But the rest of the world can limit the damage

This is what constitutes incisive political commentary from the political editor of the flagship news organisation in this country. "PM uses autocue for speech".

What

fuck
are
we
doing
here?

www.bbc.com/news/live/c1...

Post from Chris Mason (BBC News political editor, tagged as being "in the room"):

Some wondered if this might be a from the heart, off-the-cuff address, without using an autocue, but the autocue is being used.

Also, for text-/ text+image / image generation there seems to be no way to avoid reifying stereotypic structure from the verbal or verbal-pictorial training data. I thought this was a great example paper & referenced it in recently in an on-campus student event. bsky.app/profile/mgre...

🚨New publication alert!🚨 Our latest paper explores socioeconomic biases in AI—but this time, it's not about people directly. It's about homes. Consider these images: it's clear to us that they're all bathrooms. 1/
