Everyone worries about AI and democracy, but AI is just an extension of capital. THE fundamental social problems are power and fairness. What we can do how easily with technologies (e.g. communications like AI, transport, and military), alters the abilities and therefore obligations of us all.

Where the hell are Google and Apple enforcing their app store terms of service on X? Grok doing CSAM should instantly be a removal from the app store. Any other app doing this would be pulled instantly. Journalists should be asking for comment from these companies.

This from a company whose motto used to be “Don’t be evil”. #DeleteGoogle #TechEthics
"For Project Maven, Google hired hundreds of gig-economy workers to solve numerous CAPTCHAs at an incredibly low cost (roughly $1/hour).
The results of these completed CAPTCHAs were then used to develop a classification program for the use of US Military drone applications"
Workers had no idea

Google Hired Gig Economy Workers to Improve Artificial Intelligence in Controversial Drone-Targeting Project
As part of Project Maven, Google's artificial intelligence program for military drones, the tech giant hired unwitting “crowd workers” through Figure Eight.

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

NEW — My first true foray into AI haterdom is about how those of us not convinced by AI’s inevitability are a real constituency worthy of a voice.

Tech companies love to use that line after harm occurs.
But most unintended consequences are predictable — if you care enough to look.

Buzzkill ethicists and regulators must advocate for ethical standards—even if the hype train resists. W/o regulation, industry is going to be even more important going forward and must collaborate with academics and policymakers. 6/6
