this is just a worm and people have gone to jail before for creating one. again: they are being allowed to break the law in order to puff their product, and sooner or later people will die because of that. there are *already laws* that cover all this.

Anthropic has said its experiments suggested small AI models may be months away from being capable enough to self-replicate on commercial Internet-of-Things ⁠(IoT) devices, such as smart ovens and off-brand Android TV boxes.

Finally sorted out a physio on Wednesday for my faulty elbow. Very disappointing because I'd just signed up for my badminton club's league team

this is the ultimate end point of capitalism, ai will completely atomize everyone and there will be zero shared experiences. there will be no culture, only pure consumption. this must be resisted

I was talking to @walkyouhome.bsky.social about this months ago - she'd never seen it. One of the cats reminded me of it when she had a vigorous shake.

(Also this painting is from 1990. There is a blue one (colour, not content) from 2000)

A wander round Amisfield Walled Garden with the kids on the day of the apple festival. No pictures of them (other than a hand) or anyone else - I just wanted…

@walkyouhome.bsky.social and I finished reading LOTR tonight, which has been a months-long project for us. I really enjoyed reading the Appendix B "where are they now?" credits sequence

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

"By using AI, tasks like essays that used to take hours can be completed in minutes!"

Sure, like how if I arrive at the gym and immediately go for a shower, my workout is done in record time. And if I throw my sandwiches straight in the bin, I can finish my lunch in under 10 seconds.

God I used to practice there a million years ago. A pal lived in Glasgow and a couple of us would schlep through to play our dodgy songs trying desperately to sound like Origins-era Muse

Kenny Stewart @kennystew.art

It’s so cool to see what the young team have built and are building on a Maryhill industrial estate. 100 people in a practice room having paid a fair price to support the bands all going bananas (with the exception of the older ones who were just happy to be there at the back).

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

If you all hate the devs as much as you say you do, you can actually move off bsky central. Blacksky or Eurosky for your data, mu for a client, they're not your boss.

My entire life is soundtracked by @walkyouhome.bsky.social groaning at my bad jokes

Stephen Bush @stephenkb.bsky.social

What's the stupidest joke you most have to fight the urge to tell? Mine is not replying to questions about whether I have any allergies with 'we'll find out together, I guess'.
