The #waiver, which 2 former employees confirmed receiving & a copy of which was obtained by WaPo—was alarming to some members on the team, who had been hired to help shape how #xAI’s #chatbot #Grok responds to users. To some employees, it signaled a troubling new direction for a company launched “to accelerate human scientific discovery,” acc/to its website. Maybe now, they said they thought, it was willing to produce whatever #content might attract & keep users.

Their jobs would require being exposed to “sensitive, violent, sexual and/or other offensive or disturbing content,” the #waiver said, emphasizing that such content “may be disturbing, traumatizing, and/or cause you psychological stress.” [JFC!]

Weeks before #ElonMusk officially left his perch in government last spring, employees on the #human #data team of his #ArtificialIntelligence start-up #xAI received a startling #waiver from their employer, asking them to pledge to work with profane #content, including sexual material.

Freaking fiddlesticks!!

Now meetup.com requires a flipping #BindingArbitration clause to use their service.

So, what do I do? Stick to my guns and have no chance for a social life, or capitulate to the conniving, capricious capitalistic caper?

This is the stupidest timeline.

Holy crap, you can't even read an article on CNN without first agreeing to a #BindingArbitration clause.

Well hello, #Dillo!!!

Heads up everyone: #Disney's latest attack on legal rights is one that needs to be widely acknowledged, to create a PR situation that discourages corporations from doing it in the future.

They are now apparently arguing that, because a #DisneyPlus trial and an #Epcot ticket both require you to agree to #arbitration in the future, they can bar you from a #WrongfulDeath #lawsuit against any of their subsidiaries for an unlimited time after the subscription is over and the ticket has been used.

Not only is the idea of enforcing a #liability waiver on a wrongful death outside of something known to be dangerous insane, but they are trying to make it such that, if you ever sign any agreement with them, you permanently forfeit your #rights to any sort of #court action for the rest of your life.

This would effectively render all #legal and #constitutional protections null and void, because anyone could get you to sign a #waiver and use it against you years later.

Die ungerechte globale Verteilung von #Covid19Impfstoffen ist noch in schlechter Erinnerung, v.a in Ländern des Globalen Südens. Die #WTO schaffte es nach 1.5 Jahren Hinhalten durch die Industriestaaten nicht, einen #Waiver zu beschließen. Weiterlesen⤵️

I’m registering for an online horror writing course and have to sign a waiver letting me know that the activity I’ll be participating in may be physically challenging and pose a risk of death. Jeeze. What’s in the curriculum? #writing #waiver #horror

#Waiver By following me, you accept that prolonged exposure may cause irreversible changes to how you perceive the world & yourself

#introduction

A weird woman from a slowly dying post-industrial town that Phillips built and then abandoned, caring for her elderly parents, living mostly online since there is no much else here but broken promises and wasted potential

When something gets easy, I find a new challenge

When something is difficult, I find a better way to do it

When lost I set up base camp and explore & map the territory

I read, write, draw, cook, garden, tinker, repair, salvage, provide care and make things...

Someone who goes unnoticed, a walking encyclopaedia, a caster of spells, a shapeshifter, a wannabe immortal, a resilient survivor, a caregiver, someone physically disabled, autistic, tall, someone who longs for a feline friend, lives online since before the Eternal September, a keeper of dreams, a hungry fool, who hates endings, loves closures, who loves scary things, someone who smiles

Someone who hopes to someday keep bees 🐝

H Annie Lennox, τραγουδίστρια των Eurythmics στη δεκαετία του 80 & με σόλο καριέρα στη συνέχεια, εργάζεται εθελοντικά χρόνια τώρα στο πλάι όσων δεν έχουν πρόσβαση στα φάρμακα & ζουν με HIV/AIDS, ειδικά των γυναικών στην υποσαχάρια Αφρική. Σήμερα συνοδεύει το παγκόσμιο κίνημα διεκδίκησης εμβολίων για όλες/ους υποστηρίζοντας την πρωτοβουλία #WAIVER.
