       Boost if you want less generative AI in your tech in 2025.

       @mttaggart mmmm.... I'd like to see more creative sources, like l systems, wave function collapse, Wang tiles with exotic rules, markov chains, etc!Less "we trained this on a bazillion things spending millions to do so and it might give an exact replica of work by an uncredited artist from the training data set".

       @mttaggart I get some friends saying that the same stuff was said about computers, internet, even the printing press. But AI feels quite different to me. I resent the unpaid plunder of people's work for training data for machines that belong to billionaires. That has strong echos of colonial appropriation of art and knowledge, except we're all now in the colony being appropriated by a small class of essentially stateless billionaires. 1/2

       @mttaggart In classic economic terminology, it is rent seeking on an immense scale, and that historically has led to war. But my main objection, that overshadows all else, is that it makes an absurdity of any climate action. None of our coal port blockading,  recycling, growing food, conserving water  repairing, bicycling, electing Greens or Teals is going to have any impact at all on shooting past 3 degrees into a hellscape while there is AI. We can't have AI and a planet to live on. 2/2

       @mttaggart We need to make a list of tech companies that have pledged NOT to incorporate genAI, now that I think of it. The list I bet will be so small that you could probably count the numbers on one hand

       @mttaggart All that generative AI will feed back into trainingsets. Lovely, what could possibly go wrong?

       @lindawoodrow > I get some friends saying that the same stuff was said about computers, internet, even the printing press. But AI feels quite different to meThere is a rhetorical bait-and-switch here, of conflating #MOLE Training with AI in general, ie any use of automation or statistical methods to make computers seem "smart". It's similar to one of conflating corporate DataFarming platforms with the net in general, as if regulating the former is a threat to the latter.@mttaggart

       @strypey I tried to search the internet for whether MOLE is a common derogatory term for certain LLM uses, but all I found was different machine learning models for identifying moles on your skin, and one article about a form of machine learning called motion learning. 🙂@lindawoodrow @mttaggart
