THIS. If you’re in central Glasgow tonight please close your windows; if you have to be out please wear the best mask you have available. If you can smell it, you’re at risk.

How Pixar’s Open Sexism Ruined My Dream Job (Guest Column) A former Pixar employee writes that after John Lasseter's departure, the company still has a lot of work to do to fix its sexist culture.

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

People who know more about AI art find it less ethical When people understand the system and process behind AI art, its moral implications become harder to accept

You don’t say.

Most of the talk about OpenAI, Anthropic and “mass surveillance” neglected to mention that widespread scraping of the web is in itself mass surveillance.

I rarely talk about personal stuff on here, but I recently removed myself from an unsafe situation, and am currently trying to recover financially.

I am putting it out there that I'm available for work either as an artist or art director. If anyone is interested please get in touch! ❤️

Absolutely! :-)

Oh, I get that. I do tend to be more hardcore about boycotting on principle than most people I know 🤘

My list of "won't buy from them, won't read their books, won't watch their shows/movies, etc. .... is unimaginably long.

These States Are Joining in the Push to Ban Surveillance Pricing At least a dozen states are considering legislation.

It's discrimination pricing based on stalker-like surveillance.

Fortunately some states are trying to ban it. Hopefully it'll end up banned on a national scale.

Unfortunately, all of the gaming systems have some kind of horrific thing going on.

I'm at the point where I'm done buying systems. And there are very few game studios I'll purchase from anymore.

Very soon I'll be at the "just play what you already own" point. And, I'm okay with that.

The emerging “Claude killed the kids” frame on this story shows just how easily anti-AI counterhype can end up doing the government’s work for it. If you use a computer to choose targets—esp. but not only if you give it bad data to work with—and it chooses poorly, that‘s on you, not the computer!

The Troubling Personal Side of Public Surveillance Law enforcement cameras are popping up everywhere, but many agencies have little safeguards to prevent abuse by individual officers.

I don’t think we should categorize examples where these systems are used by individuals for stalking or harassment as “misuse” of the technology. This is very much literally why the tech exists, and there are no meaningful ways these uses are prohibited.

It's DISCRIMINATORY pricing ... but, yes, done via surveillance. And, absolutely it should be outlawed.

"And it’s just the latest push at the state level to fight the rise of so-called surveillance pricing, the practice of rapidly changing prices for different consumers using high tech tools."

Definitely errors. Fuck-ups, even.

NOT "hallucinations" ... it's not a sentient being, so it can't hallucinate.

Since it's still Josie's Week, I also wanted to mention I think Blackwall/Josephine is kinda cute together, BUT!

I'll never get over the fact they reused the white lily bouquet asset from DA2 for his gift 💀😂
