You might want to flip your phone for this one 😆
Personally I hate AI because it uses slave labor, is killing the planet and is making people stupid, but that's just me. The soulless art aspect is just one little piece of my grander disdain.
wait how does AI use slave labor? Do you mean the human works that are stolen and not credited or compensated? Because technically under capitalism everything is exploited but there are varying degrees
Aside from the scraping, AI tech companies, including openAI/chatGPT, have outsourced training their models to countries in the global south, specifically Kenya in openAI's case. These workers are working in sweatshop conditions for less than 2 bucks USD per hour. I'm on mobile, but if you search 'openAI Kenya slave labor' and related keywords, you can find multiple articles about it.
Training AI takes a heavy toll on Kenyan workers, who say they earned $2 an hour to label and sift through gruesome content for American com
I think about this so goddamn often. Even the good uses are trained on slave labor.
Wambalo and other digital workers spent eight hours a day in front of a screen studying photos and videos, drawing boxes around objects and labeling them, teaching AI algorithms to recognize them. Human labelers tag cars and pedestrians to teach autonomous vehicles not to hit them. Humans circle abnormalities in CTs, MRIs and X-rays to teach AI to recognize diseases. Even as AI gets smarter, humans in the loop will always be needed because there will always be new devices and inventions that'll need labeling.
 Humans in the loop are found not only in Kenya, but also in India, the Philippines and Venezuela. They're often countries with low wages but large populations — well educated, but unemployed.
The pay for humans in the loop is $1.50-2 an hour. "And that is gross, before tax," Wambalo said. Wambalo, Nathan Nkunzimana and Fasica Berhane Gebrekidan were employed by SAMA, an American outsourcing company that hired for Meta and OpenAI. SAMA, based in the California Bay Area, employed over 3,000 workers in Kenya. Documents reviewed by 60 Minutes show OpenAI agreed to pay SAMA $12.50 an hour per worker, much more than the $2 the workers actually got, though SAMA says what it paid is a fair wage for the region.
It's destroying the environment. It's taking advantage of people who're desperate. It's traumatizing them for dollars an hour--if they're lucky and they aren't denied their pay for no reason. I think about this a lot, that these people were made to look at awful and disgusting and illegal things for the sake of training these stupid AI.
"I looked at people being slaughtered," Wambalo said. "People engaging in sexual activity with animals. People abusing children physically, sexually. People committing suicide." Berhane Gebrekidan thought she'd been hired for a translation job, but she said what she ended up doing was reviewing content featuring dismembered bodies and drone attack victims.Â
[...]
SAMA says mental health counseling was provided by "fully-licensed professionals." Workers say it was woefully inadequate.
It's just absurd and disgusting and infuriating. Yes the good applications are worth humans working on. It's not a bad thing--if the people employed to do the work are compensated appropriately and cared for. But so many of the uses are just unnecessary.
It just. Sucks. And all they'd have to do to make it suck just a litte bit less would be to pay people appropriately, give them access to the counseling needs they have, treat them like human beings worthy of respect and care on a basic fucking level. It wouldn't resolve the environmental issues or the fact that people are thinking less and less for themselves in the name of getting all of their answers from gen AI but at least they could do one thing to make it a little less The Worst Thing Ever.
Thinking about the fact that we're used to interacting with way more anglo media than with our media
The music i listen to? In english. The tv shows i watch? In english. The books i read? In english. The games i play? In english. The post i'm making? In english. The jokes we make with my friends? In english.
The language of my family, my neighbours and the people of my country? Spanish
Imagine the amount of things we'd miss out if we couldn't speak english. The amount of media that would not be available to us. And the implications this has in a global sense, how this affect the kind of jobs we have access to. This is the reason we are forced to learn to speak english in a way we are not forced to learn any other language.
This is cultural imperialism
la cultura popular anglosajona se trata como cultura general, mientras que la cultura en otros idiomas se trata como exótica y hasta cierto punto de menor calidad. las pelÃculas yanquis son solo pelÃculas y las pelÃculas japonesas son pelÃculas japonesasâ„¢

There are 2 types of fanfic:
fanfic that I like
fanfic that is none of my business
readcomicsonline getting nuked is bad for all the obvious reasons but also its insane considering those artists/writers confessions that they get sent pages with the readcomicsonline banner at the bottom bc dc and marvel dont have any kind of internal reference or register for most shit. shooting themselves in the dick
starting to hear more and more people say they "wouldn't know what to do without chatgpt", and in my head I tell them without chatgpt, they would probably be using their own brains as god intended
Actually reading good comics is worse than reading bad comics because then you get used to comics not sucking

the way some people discuss the casting of nightwing is so gross. just saw someone say something along the lines of "most of theses fancasts aren't cute and they dont even have a nice ass"
those are... not.... the biggest parts of his character....?
i would much rather have an athletic person who can physically do what nightwing needs to do, and can act with the complexity required to play dick. even if they're not a perfect face for dick; then someone who's "cute" (insanely subjective) and "has a nice ass" (insanely gross as something to put importance on for casting)
the objectification of the nightwing actor has already started and we dont even have a whiff about who it is going to be. this is going to be a person, who has a job & is doing a job (acting in a movie) not a body for the fandom to ogle at and discuss whether or not he has a nice ass.
This is what happens when the noise around Nightwing comes from Batfam stans who LOVE to objectify him just so they can appropriate his skills, story arcs, teams, friendships, for their favs. This objectification has been a sad reality of Batfam standom ever since I have been around, some 10 years now...
i'm not aro but i find it so annoying whenever i see a well-written, tight-knit friendship & people immediately jump to "they're dating/poly/qpr" like NO. they are FRIENDS. are we familiar with that concept? and it's getting to the point where i am genuinely afraid to write complex friendships because i don't want people to be like "oh this relationship is Too Meaningful to just be platonic" like no??? it's meaningful because it's platonic. ugh
it would be crazy if dick ever moved on from the mantle nightwing due to distressing circumstances and then superman just came over and took his suit and gave it to someone else and told them to call themselves nightwing, while dick was still very much around without a say in any of this mantle-giving-and-taking... that would be crazy right? luckily that has never happened to dick before
I want to personally thank every ao3 account with 10k+ bookmarks that has very concise to the point descriptions under each bookmark you are singlehandedly making my weeks 10x better
When a fic doesn’t fit my head canons but it’s well-written
#he wouldn't fucking say that but i'm getting kind of attached to the guy you invented who did say that

If a ceasefire holds, you boycott Israel HARDER, you divest, you push for sanctions. You don't perform for apartheid. You don't whitewash genocide. You don't pretend like Israel isn't still a violent occupier stealing land and collectively punishing Palestinians daily
