Nothing Works and Everyone Is Euphoric
As I’m writing this, we’re in the middle of an AI-induced mass psychosis. People are literally token-maxxing themselves into hospital beds, scrambling to capture some of that market value before everything is automated away. I can’t blame them.ptrchm
U.S. says ‘error’ mislabelled every African country on AIDS conference map at international conference
The U.S. government on Thursday acknowledged an “unfortunate error” that led to a map of Africa with every single country mislabelled being shown at a global AIDS conference this week.
They say it was AI created. Yes, we definitely want AI to take over our lives.

Nobody needs AI to search the Internet, court says in ruling against Google
In other words, nobody needs AI to search the Internet, so AI firms can’t just let their tools attribute false claims to fake sources without assuming any liability.The court also seemed to take a dig at Google for expecting users not to “blindly trust” AI overviews, noting that the AI tool’s utility “would be significantly diminished if the ‘AI overview’ were generally regarded as unreliable and if every single displayed link required independent verification.”
If it's not reliable, why would I ever use it? I'm not that stupid!

KI im Betriebssystem-Kern: Wie sich die Kontrolle über das Smartphone verschiebt
KI wandert 2026 tief in den Systemkern von iPhone und Android. Fachleute warnen vor neuen Risiken und schwindender Nutzerkontrolle. Wem gehört unser Handy?Marcel Kunzmann (heise online)
I can't attest about the accuracy of this piece, but it makes a strong argument for why the AI bubble hasn't popped yet despite showing no tangible results compared to the marketing claims: it has devolved into a full-fledged cult and not buying into the faith, even superficially, can cost one's livelihood. And so the public positive reinforcement loop goes on, while in private people are often skeptical at best, and rightfully so.
AI Mania Is Eviscerating Global Decisionmaking
The reality of how much damage AI mania is doing to our ability to run institutions effectively.hermit-tech.com
People who protest, people who show the fuck up to city council meetings, people who write letters and make calls, people who organize are achieving victories all over the US. One data center after another is getting canceled, one ICE "warehouse" concentration camp after another. We've forced the mutiny of preverts to backtrack and change tactics. We've beaten them in court countless times.
We get to choose victory or defeat.

I am extremely disappointed with Freesound's AI policy so far...
They auto-opt in all creators to allow their sounds to be used for training generative machine learning models....
Without a way to opt-out.
Get phucked.

New on the blog. At Cables of Resistance, I ran a workshop asking if we can build hardware without capitalism. I was grieving what AI is doing to open source. Technologists need to see there's no innocent ground under the machine. It was always someone's land.

"The old guard is out. The AI-native companies are in."
Apple pays Google $1B because it couldn't build AI. Welcome to MANGOS.

AI Economics for Dummies - McSweeney’s Internet Tendency
As AI companies get ready to go public and we get a deeper look at their inner workings, it’s only natural to have questions about their finances, like “Do they make money?” and “How?” Here are a few examples to help the average layperson understand the business side of AI.

Manga Artist Loses Entire Google Account After AI Flags His Own Artwork on Drive
Japanese manga artist Masahiro Itosugi, creator of the adult series Aki Sora, had his Google account suspended after uploading old manga manuscripts to Google Drive. His appeal was reviewed and rejected, and the artist suspects that at every stage he was dealing with an AI moderator, not real employees.
Dear LazyDiaspora - How do I excise or at least disable all #AI from #NextCloud?
I'm not here to discuss the merits of "AI" technology, and any comments about that will be deleted by me.
I want the documentation showing me how to remove the feature as thoroughly as possible. However, all I can find is documentation on how to enable and configure it.
Ideally, I wish to visibly remove all references to AI feature(s) and all code associated with it. If that's not possible, then I'd like to know the exact config options that will pinch it off at the most basic level available.
How do I do that?
Reshares appreciated.
Thanks.
