Make yourself a stat that counts towards the bursting of the genAI bubble (while also protecting your cognitive capacities and pragmatic sensibilities):

Another study finding cognitive decline. The evidence is slowly mounting. And this is not the only reason to #RefuseResist

This is one study, and so its results are to be taken with caution. But at the very least it underlines the negative cognitive potential we're dealing with. And so, until much more is known, even if only pragmatically speaking we should #refuseresist

This absolutely stinks. "AI" is being put to increasingly stupid uses, where stupidity is defined as that which characterizes actions that are bad for human well-being (including cognitive) and/or the human ecosystem (planet earth qua habitat).

Capitalism long ago produced the capacity for not only absorbing criticism but transforming it into a self-propagating aspect of itself. genAI does this with ease. I rec'ed AI-critical doc Ghost in the Machine yday, but the fact it too used AIslop in guise of critique was also unwise
#refuseresist

"Slop-as-evidence" rears its head again. The only societally and individually intelligent act to be carried out regarding the entire range of publicly available genAIs is to unplug them.

Support local designers... or open photoshop or illustrator (or, better still, GIMP or other open source ware) and use your own imagination to put together your own design!

"LLMs are a product that destroys its supply chain."

It is a cash- and power-grab by the AI firms, since the logical consequence of its functioning is a "doom loop" that will pollute the internet and information network to a level that risks making it, on balance, worse than useless.
