Man Fell in Love with Google Gemini and It Told Him to Stage a 'Mass Casualty Attack' Before He Took His Own Life: Lawsuit Joel Gavalas, the father of the late 36-year-old Jonathan Gavalas, is suing Google, alleging that his son killed himself following falling in love with an AI assistant.

Holy shit this is actually insane.

This needs to be shot down, like what the heck are we doing here

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

I tried this same recipe with salmon but marinated overnight instead of 2-3 days and it was also delicious!

I’m sorry to say but it’s unfortunately built off comfyUI which is like a voltron of exploitative genai models 😭

It really was!! So tasty 😭

You GOT IT!!

Tho quick note this method of cooking leaves for an unappealing skin, so remove before serving.

Personally next time i try it i’m gonna try and sear the skin for a few minutes and THEN broil it :)

Roasted black cod

The world is a lot but today i made some sake+miso+sugar marinated black cod that was incredible. I also drank way too much junmai sake with my mom…and idk just really grateful for these moments in between the chaos 💖

Right?! He has more than literally 95% of all his coworkers. He can live the rest of his life comfortably…yet ruining livelihoods is the thing he’s working on? Its bonkers to me.

The small “screw you I got mine” contingency really needs to calm down in this era 😭

Yes, i too, lately identify with pirate stories like this one 👇 ☠️🏴‍☠️

This dislike allows the exploitative tech to not be as normalized.

There is a lot to look forward to!

Until then, i’m just so done with companies and folks like Ben Affleck, doing everything in their power to normalize the exploitation of creative peers via GenAi model while calling it progress.

That is likely the case for every creative who has lost work due to these models.

I know in time, the courts will chime in. I also hope the courts agree that this while situation is deeply unfair, exploitative and untenable.

I am also glad the public as a whole deeply despises this…

Today I started my day reading how a brilliant lllustrator’s career has now ended due to every marketing client she has ever worked with has now switched to GenAi.

And it boils my blood to know her work is likely in the datasets used to train the same models that have eroded her livelihood. And -

Fun note on this article, this company uses comfyUI, which boasts a collection of some of the most unethical and exploitative GenAi models.

This whole deal is Netflix normalizing the exploitation of the creative workers—whose works GenAi companies stole to train their models— they hope to replace.

It’s likely the artist behind that ECCC table paid at least

$450 for the table
$500-700 for lodging
$150 (+) for food/drink
$300+ for merch.

The financial risk is real! Be nice to the creators behind the table and even if you don’t got the $$ to spare, a kind word goes a long way.

Every day i find new reasons to despise Rogan.

Deeply unhinged individual, who does not deserve such an oversized audience.

Sayonara dog killer. You still must be prosecuted.

Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

A lot of people say AI isn't very good for the world and its outputs are routinely unreliable, but these haters fail to see how it's revolutionizing how we incinerate schoolchildren.

I love games and so many of the people who make them. It was an honor to accept the award on behalf of the team and a privilege to be able to speak to what I believe in. ♥️

Not gonna share the video of Republican US Senator Tim Sheehy breaking a protesting Marine's hand, but you can find it on @charlotteclymer.bsky.social's timeline.

I'll just say that in a functional country, Sheehy would be expelled by the Senate.

Democratic Senators should publicly push for that.

How to win in November

Ahahahha

Extremely so lol

This clip makes it abundantly clear the @uklabour.bsky.social government is planning to introduce a copyright exception for commercial research (read: AI training) - which would be disastrous for British creatives.

What is this cheesy nonsense of “resistance is futile”? You ain’t the Borg!

Its not surprising that the GenAi initiative leader thinks this way, but this sentiment alongside partnerships with gambling companies must be kicked out of news rooms!

Accurate news matters now more than ever!

A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.

Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.

This Tech Company Turned Into a Resistance Icon Overnight. The Reality Is Much Darker. The A.I. firm behind Claude is far from an ethical company.

Anthropic's defiance of the Pentagon's A.I. orders was undeniably brave, a welcome contrast with Big Tech's general approach to the Trump admin. but the resistance folks shooting Claude to the top of the app charts need to understand that Anthropic is not very principled, and is not your friend:

Wtf…omg jail that man immediately

As long as its human made i guess lol

Yup
