I like how there is a certain laugh that is universally understood to be the "evil laugh". Like we evolved with a need to communicate that something is amusing specifically because we are evil.
Makes me wonder what those monkeys who first descended from trees were REALLY up to.

Getting Certainty on Human Versus Synthetic Media – Chroknowlogy
The Authors Guild (USA) launched its Human Authored Certification program. Members can register human-written works authorsguild.org/human-authored to appear in a database. Interesting idea! Much merit but also problems. I wrote some initial (flawed?) thoughts chroknowlogy.ca/digital-ecos... #ai

I'm cynical that this platform will live up to its name, it'll probably devolve like its corporate predecessors. I've been enjoying the Fediverse, including services like Mastodon, Pixelfed, FunkWhale, etc. which seem a better idea & already works on a W3C standard. I'll lurk here, see what happens.
