       I refresh the page in a new window and get the "click on bridges" prompt again.So Google is controlling whether you do the app verification?This can't be good....Anyway I refuse to download the app as long as I can so I hope this doesn't get used for anything importantI don't love the privacy implications

       I am impressed that Amnesty International - a major human rights organisation which people have a snowball's chance in hell listening too - said that standalone generative AI systems need to be prohibited.I think it's the first organisation I've seen calling for it, so many organisations before (and honestly, myself, most of the time) usually weasel it into "make AI safer" lest they get pushback from techbros.But someone actually said it.We need to prohibit that shit.

       #AskFedi  I came across a study a while ago which had considerable evidence that LLM autocomplete can shift the views of users without users realising their views have shifted. I want to talk about it in my upcoming essay.I can't find this study; DuckDuckGo and Google Scholar aren't helping. Can anyone help me dig it up?EDIT: Found it! https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adw5578

       July 4 seems to be an excuse for the British to dress up as cowboys and get drunk
