Opinionated Polyshipper

1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.

2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.

3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."

4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.

keep it up :)

Original post by @morallygrayautisticscientist here, this post was so funny I decided to draw it lol.

Panel by panel below:

i keep thinking about this comment and I just wonder why you keep thinking of something you don't enjoy while reading something you do enjoy (general you ofc) how does one not get sucked in by the story so much they forget they were even reading in the first place, it's just a little odd to me, that's all, what do you think?

seems like a miserable way to live a life lmao. I mean I know we’re only talking about fanfics on ao3, but if this person has to deliberately make themself miserable by thinking about the fact that the things they dislike exist, I can’t help but wonder if this is also how they live their daily life: just being miserable because, in real life, somewhere out there, there are things that they hate too.

the unfortunate truth is that the things that you (general you) hate will always exist. the things I hate exist. not just when it comes to fanfics but anything in general. the world does not revolve around you or your personal preferences. so you can either choose to ignore things you cannot change or control and focus your time and energy on something you enjoy, or you can make yourself miserable by focusing your time and energy on the fact that people like the things you hate, the things you hate exist, and there’s nothing you can do about it.

I personally dont particularly engage with dark fiction most of the time, but thats just my taste, and i dont make a big deal about it. And i feel like more people need to do that instead of going out and harassing people for their writing/artwork. Honestly, even when it comes to ppl who are into, idk like noncon roleplaying or age play or whatever shit like that, is completely harmless aslong as it is kept in a safe and non-abusive environment. Do i still think its weird? Yes, but that is just my personal opinion and i am fortunate to be mentally mature enough to not bullshit people with my opinions. And i wish more ppl were like that, and would just leave ppl alone instead of bullying them off the Internet.

If it says, dead dove do not eat, you have no right to complain about eating the dove of your own accord.

sounds hot. I’m in. cnc is already what my partner and I do in bed every night (I play his victim) so

also in all seriousness this is the type of ask someone who claims to be “the good guy” and “morally superior” sends a stranger while hiding behind anon — because they don’t like that said stranger writes about fictional taboo stories by the way.

no, this type of asks do not affect me. I’ll still continue writing whatever I want, however I want. and I’ll do so unapologetically. they can’t stop me. because I know my kinks stay 100% a fantasy. I don’t harm anybody with what I enjoy in fiction and I don’t force anybody to read what I write.

I do it too, I’m not going to pretend I don’t make jokes about the hets, or the down with cis bus, or whatever

But I recently befriended a cis, straight dude and I have watched him be dismissed, degraded, and unambiguously insulted for the perceived “crime” of being straight — all in queer environments where he is allegedly “completely welcome” and surrounded by “friends”

This guy is not a toxic person! But I have seen him be made to feel so small and like his comfort and safety in those spaces are conditional on his silence and acceptance of being treated like a human dunk zone, and I think that some of y’all have had so much shit from straight/cis people that the second you feel like you’ve got an inch, you want to luxuriate in the perceived catharsis of bullying someone who— actually —doesn’t deserve it

And until he very, very carefully mentioned to me in private that it makes him feel bad, I didn’t even clock that I was involved in doing that, that it had become so instinctive for me to make casual jokes like that, and that— well meaning or otherwise —I had been contributing to an environment that made someone I really really like feel like shit

I’m gonna say this point blank— you’re a tar pit if you think this way

Your suffering does not make you special, you are not granted brand new permissions to be belligerent and cruel because you have been treated poorly, straight people aren’t an oppressed class, no, but they’re people who are entitled to the same amount of basic decency that you, yourself, are entitled to

This is a form of backdoor bigotry from both normative facts (there are more straight than gay relationships) and well represented bigoted beliefs (men are superior to women).
