@gwillow.meReposted by @ravenswordpress.comA couple of years ago, an electrician tried to convince us to install a "smart" electrical panel that would balance our power usage via an app, turning off electricity to various appliances as needed. We declined. "I don't want to worry about my fridge getting hacked," I said. He laughed.
@ravenswordpress.comObligatory "this blew up" post. Other things that should blow up include: * Data centres used for AI * Anti-AI sentiment and action * My book sales (I do not and have never used AI for anything, least of all anything creative)
@adamjschwarz.bsky.socialReposted by @ravenswordpress.comRegardless of whether reducing Russian bot activity was a specific objective of Ukraine's Yandex strike, it feels like another way the conflict has ushered in a new era of robot warfare. Propaganda centres have long been targeted in war. But this looks like the first munitions strike against bots.
@adamjschwarz.bsky.socialReposted by @ravenswordpress.comZelensky: "When our strikes reached Yandex’s data centers, it suddenly became a little easier to breathe on many social media platforms.

@ritzytritzy.bsky.socialReposted by @ravenswordpress.comhey so this thing already happened with comics, the site was called comic.mp4. My most popular post on this platform was about them using AI to franchise out creator's work. They no longer exist. No one worked with them. They never got to grift. Please let that happen again.
@cassmorriswrites.comReposted by @ravenswordpress.comWowwwwwww this is so gross. Each of these writers is absolutely betraying the rest of the creative community. On, like, so many different levels. Everyone involved with this is a scab, pass it on and shun them accordingly.
@scyllapublishing.bsky.socialReposted by @ravenswordpress.comPitch for as many queer people as possible to consider signing up for and making the trip to Brisbane Worldcon/Aussiecon 5!

@scottedelman.bsky.socialReposted by @ravenswordpress.comAfter clicking through to see what this site was about, I recoiled so quickly I'll need a neck brace for my whiplash. "Authors First uses innovative generative Al tools to bring stories to life that might not get greenlit otherwise." Better not to get greenlit than surrender to AI. Count me out.
@ravenswordpress.comHamilton openly stated at FantasyCon that he's doing this
