  1. CW: AI hype

    Cory Doctorow on the Big #AI Lie www.youtube.com/watch?v=nTqCVJFr7XM #novara

    It's a long and fun interview, and I agree with many of the things which Doctorow mentions, such as climate change and what the Luddites were about and that a chatbot giving an explanation of what it did is very unlikely to be the same as what it actually did. Those systems can't really explain, they can "cargo cult" what an explanation of such-and-such might statistically look like given the training data.

  3. CW: Unarmada for Gaza: Long bars, extreme content

    who’s gonna tell the #Martians
    why #Gazan lost kids weren’t on #cartons ?
    slippery #WalkOns #grift for #argent
    every time our #eyebrows arching
    don’t let it touch the heartstrings
    to get us to #SwipeAway as it hardens
    #violent ardent khaki #sergeants
    while we quake at #AlmondStalin
    #GaryLineker ’s #PostPartum
    pen over parchment starts to sharpen
    I won’t make that bargain
    I won’t beg that pardon
    I be like “na man” gotta be barking
    #PreciousIsEachFallenStarling
    I’ll be the aveunt’s pesky #varmint
    I’ll be #TestCase for their #retirement
    I’ll be car-pooling up in the #parklands
    opening the gates on #arkham
    I’ll wipe out your margin
    shave your #merkin
    spice your #parkin
    I’ll rehouse the martens
    #TrainTheUrchins
    spike your #garmin
    I’ll be a #token doing a #slalom
    round this #empire led by #Cartman
    judged by duds like #MerrickGarland
    none can thrive in this #environment
    #censor tears of #Salah
    lala to #Novara
    if the bleeding party’s darker
    #apathy #cicadas
    while we eke they #parking
    grasping for our farthing
    all the #smartcards for the #outcasts marking
    in this #awks #SharedDream hearken!
    someone’s growing a fold: #Darkling
    I don’t think we’ve time for #aksing
    it’s got a bit beyond a #Marx ting
    #DontSweat who’s inna room just barge in
    tell them we need the #boats , we're not larking
    #AllOfTheChildrenAreOurs when hurting
    it’s part of our #dharma and we’re departing

  4. #novara understands why it's a bad idea to place your political agency in the hands of an elitist #leninist vanguard who can't seem to keep their hands out of the till (see jaqui smith, alan milburn) or adopting the policies and talking points of the tory right - who just move further to the right to distinguish themselves from venezuela-style #labour

    If you're waiting for #starmer to deliver, then you're not doing politics: you've been neutralised.
