Sorry, folks, this year "no vote" is a vote for fascism, don't be that person, voting is a necessary if not entirely sufficient act


a (@aacoek.bsky.social):

I wish I could vote for Joe Biden.

His executive leadership actions, or lack there of, prevent that.

It is not a reality I am comfortable with.


Fraize (@fraize.com):

So you're looking women, minorities, and LGBTQIA+ people in the eyes to tell them, "I'm sorry but your continued existence is not as important to me as my conscience." Hot take, that.


Cj Rabbit🐇 (@rhino-0s.bsky.social):

It doesn't stop there. Anyone who has said "FRICK TRUMP" anywhere online in the last regime will be marked as an adversary. Ai is extremely powerful and project 2025 will utilize all the crazy new sentiment analysis and monitoring abilities frontier ai can do.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

It doesn't even take AI to make an enemies list. It just takes a moderate sized database.


Cj Rabbit🐇 (@rhino-0s.bsky.social):

Yup! But with ✨ai✨ they can have a constantly updating list. Every citizen has a swarm of multiple ai agents monitoring and collecting all behavior 24/7. The second you even mention an "antifa" thought. It will be noted. Too many, and you will be dealt with. Dissent will be impossible


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

Those AI models are trained on the feedback of thousands of volunteers; once made, they're actually trivial to route around with simple noun substitutions.

Fighting hate groups on Reddit (which uses two anti-hate LLM vendors) has shown me the limits of that tech


Cj Rabbit🐇 (@rhino-0s.bsky.social):

It has limitsnow yes, but there are advancements daily. Claude 3.5 is on another level and it seemingly came outta no where. But yeah, if they just sick a bunch of chatbots on us, I'm not worried. It's when they incorporate llms into larger agentic systems where things get scary fast.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

In the end, it will be faster, more agile, and more thorough for them to employ 50 retired E8's whose hands aren't tied by the Bill of Rights.

We really really need a privacy law.

Daniel Goldman (@dgoldman.bsky.social):

Then build LLM-based systems to combat those other LLM systems rather than trying to shut the lid on a new technology.


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

One of the problems of LLMs is that they are just a multi-dimensional statistical distribution chart tied to a dictionary of symbols. They're not "intelligent" or "sentient", they just are convolute artifacts of artifacts of intelligence, like silly putty lifts of comic strips


Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

The other problem with them is that training them uses huge amounts of energy.

You'd use less and spend less employing a team of analysts on salary for tasks like "hunt down antifascists".

Ms. Penny Oaken (@skywitches.net):

The "AI" we have now doesn't think or read, it just sees that a prospective hateful sentence looks a lot like the training data it's been told is hateful, or doesn't.
