With the good comes the bad. Some people have been using AI chatbots as a sounding board to understand their relationships, get help communicating their thoughts and even going as far to ask if they're still attracted to their partners.

@Bustle_BDGMedia has three real life stories to share. Maybe we can all use them as examples of what not to do.

OpenClaw demos and other Tech Toronto bullshit at the Super Wonder Gallery tonight as promoted on the gallery's sandwichboard stand up sign

Wow. Until now the New York Times has been little more than free advertising disguised as news for these new AI tech companies like OpenAI or Anthropic. If the New York Times is allowing op-eds accusing the Democratic Party of falling for the hype about LLMs (the hype about it soon becoming sentient and taking over the world) against all of the best expert opinion to the contrary, then The Times are clearly beginning to see a wave of revolt rising against this technology. They are probably trying to do a little damage control for all the propaganda they have been doing until now.

Human therapists have a legal duty to warn authorities and potential targets when patients say they plan to harm someone.

Shouldn’t we require the same from #AI chatbots?

https://theconversation.com/should-ais-be-required-to-report-a-human-user-contemplating-violence-282561

Technology can become a “shell game” of responsibility, where companies push the consequences of dangerous systems onto individuals instead of the decisions made in boardrooms.

On the Future Knowledge #podcast, legal scholar Ryan Calo points to social media addiction, autonomous vehicle failures, and other technological harms as examples of why tech companies should think harder about societal impact before disaster strikes.

DuckDuckGo is reportedly seeing a surge in users after Google pushed deeper AI integration into Search.

Some users appear to be moving toward privacy-focused and AI-optional alternatives instead of AI-generated search results by default.

Interesting shift in how people want to use the web.

"US Law Enforcement Warns of ‘Anti-Tech Extremism’ as AI Hatred Grows

As Americans stew over the looming risk of job-stealing AI and data centers in their back yards, the feds are raising the alarm about a new category of threat, documents obtained by WIRED show.

IN THE WAKE of attacks on CEOs, a nationwide protest movement targeting data centers, and increasing concerns about AI job replacement, federal intelligence agencies and domestic law enforcement are circulating reports with a new domestic target in mind: anti-technology extremists.

Taken together, these Trump administration directives have commandeered the domestic surveillance apparatus to surveil and criminalize speech and assembly that challenges the ideology of the White House. A new focus on anti-technology extremism adds an unreported category to already public designations under a presidency that has heavily invested political and material capital in AI and data center proliferation."

I was wondering if anyone had released any turn-key OS for a #PiZero or similar that detects devices like AXON cop tazers, wifi retail surveillance cameras, smart glasses etc...

So I asked #AI because it has indexed things like Github and should know this.

It didn't find anything, but immediately told me how to make it, and it was correct. I just wanted a shortcut.
