I do not want your AI scam
I do not want it Sam-I-Am
I will not have it in my house
I will not use it with a mouse
I will not put it in my pocket
Launch it to the sun in a rocket
I do not want it in my life
Using it would cause me strife
I do not want your AI scam
Stop making this shit Sam-I-Am

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

DuckDuckGo has introduced a new feature allowing users to filter out AI-generated images from search results, addressing growing concerns over synthetic content overwhelming authentic visuals online. 
The filter can be activated through a dropdown in the Images tab, search settings, or by using a dedicated AI-free domain: noai.duckduckgo.com. The system relies on curated blocklists, including uBlockOrigin’s Huge AI Blocklist, to detect and suppress AI-generated imagery. 
While not perfect, it significantly reduces synthetic content visibility. This move sets DuckDuckGo apart from competitors like Google and Bing by giving users direct control over their exposure to AI-generated material.

Trump’s β€œtermination of the program was unlawful. It violated bedrock separation-of-powers principles by effectively repealing a federal statute and impounding specifically appropriated funds based on nothing more than the President’s disagreement with a program Congress duly enacted”
