Reminds me of 'a lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots on.' But it's what people are asking for: entertainment > true information

Braverman’s immigration bill will apparently have a Section 19B Statement attached to it, admitting it may be in breach of the European Convention on Human Rights. We now have a government willing to break the law so that it can abuse vulnerable people.

Your TLDR: a racist welfare decision-making system hiding behind opaque AI systems, another reason why we urgently need accountability!

Deepfake voice cloning is a real threat with not much done to counteract it atm. We need to invest in creating detection systems but the lack of awareness is disincentivising creators. Till then stay safe everyone! πŸ™

This is staggering. Let’s not beat around the bush. It is about denying the humanity of asylum seekers, and that is a dangerous, slippery path towards the politics of fascism. Sometimes that word just has to be used.

I’m endlessly grateful for @[email protected] on Mastodon’s continued advocacy and education. It helps me stay active and vigilant when I feel like giving up. Being a dissenting technologist can feel very, very lonely.

Interesting application! Just like generative AI, useful enough / looks nice but not technically true. This example is fairly benign, but the important thing is where we draw the line. At what point does truth matter enough to resist stochastic generation / approximation?

Hype comes and goes. When choosing work it's best to focus on the why, not the how. The how changes all the time, but the why keeps you focused. If AI brings you closer to your why, then go for it.
