Wikipedia Says AI Is Causing a Dangerous Decline in Human Visitors “With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

wikipedia's data shows that AI is siphoning traffic away from the site, which is a danger to its sustainability. ironically Wikipedia is more important than ever to users who want reliable information instead of slop, and to AI companies that need it for training data www.404media.co/wikipedia-sa...

Anti-Communist Club Is Formed by Coughlin ROYAL OAK, Mich., Sept. 17.-(U.P.)—The Rev. Charles E. Cough-lin today announced formation of a children's anti-Communist club in which communism will be taught to "expose its fallacies." "We take the candy from the pill and show what's inside," the priest said "It is the first such club to be formed and we hope it will spread all over America." The club will function in the school maintained by Father Coughlin's parish of the Shrine of the Little Flower.

The Estate of Martin Luther King, Jr., Inc. (King, Inc.) and OpenAl have worked together to address how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s likeness is represented in Sora generations. Some users generated disrespectful depictions of Dr. King's image. So at King, Inc.'s request, OpenAl has paused generations depicting Dr. King as it strengthens guardrails for historical figures. While there are strong free speech interests in depicting historical figures, OpenAl believes public figures and their families should ultimately have control over how their likeness is used. Authorized representatives or estate owners can request that their likeness not be used in Sora cameos. OpenAl thanks Dr. Bernice A. King for reaching out on behalf of King, Inc., and John Hope Bryant and the Al Ethics Council for creating space for conversations like this.

There's nuance in position 2: Folks with technical or media competency who invest in learning realise how limited it is, and conclude that it sucks. Folks who have neither of those competencies think it's transformational and that they can ride the wave. They're group 3: marks.

Of the people I follow, the harshest critics are those who have been working in the field of AI for a long time. They understand how it works.

'That scene was indescribable': Shadi Abu Sido returns home to Gaza after months in prison Shadi Abu Sido spent 18 months in Israeli detention believing that his entire family had been killed in Gaza. Then he was reunited with his wife and children in Gaza.

The hard evidence of brutal physical & mental #torture of #Palestinians ( held without charge) in #Israel is mounting.

Will there be a modern-day #Nuremberg trial that identifies and punishes those that ordered, conducted & condoned these practices?

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD ***************** Investigation of: LOSS OF THE SUBMARINE TITAN IN THE NORTH ATLANTIC OCEAN ON JUNE 18, 2023 * * * * * * Accident No.: *********** * * * * * * Interview of: Co-designer/Pilot Deepsea Challenger DCA23FM036 via Microsoft Teams Friday, July 26, 2024

INTERVIEW OF 10 BY LCDR 11 Q. So how did you get yourself started into submersible 12 operations? 13 A. Well, I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic. When I 14 set down the path to make that film, the first thing that I did 15 was arrange to be introduced to the head of the submersible 16 program at the P.P. Shirshov Institute in Moscow, a guy named 17| Professor I. I did that through a mutual friend 18 of ours, a guy named , who is one of the preeminent underwater cinematographers in the world. And had been on a 20 submersible expedition out to Titanic the previous year with the 21 Russians. And that was organized by a Canadian company that was 22 doing an IMAX film which was released under the title Titanica.

Learned that an anonymous outside expert on submersibles did an interview with the OceanGate Titan investigation, and they released a transcript, with all the names redacted. The first line of his first answer? "I'm sure you're familiar with my film Titanic."

the ABC is carefully curating a narrative that people harming children via social media are all other children. Lies. The biggest threat is adult males. The biggest threat is always adult males, including to each other.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing? 2? Questions I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up. Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

One curious thing on this site about speaking out against the encroachment of LLMs is that inevitably you get accused of being anti-tech. I don’t hate technology. I’ve used machine learning in my own code before. But I also recognize that oligarchs are so hellbent on pushing this tech for a reason.
