I think the funniest thing about the current strain of rabid conservatism in the States is how much these chucklefucks are hurt that people think they're creepy and uncool, so instead of trying to become interesting/decent humans, they just resort to trying to force everyone to pay attention to them, while doing spiteful shit to make themselves feel better.

I am really, really, REALLY irritated by what I just saw. The #ImageDescription function of Microsoft's #Bing is outright lying to people with vision impairments about what appears in images it receives. It's bad enough when an #LLM is allowed to tell lies that a person can easily check for veracity themselves. But how the hell are you going to offer this so-called service to someone who can't check the claims being made and NEEDS those claims to be correct? How long till someone gets poisoned because Bing lied and told someone it was food that hasn't expired when it has, or that it's safe to drink when it's cleaning solution, or God knows what? This is downright irresponsible and dangerous. #Microsoft either needs to put VERY CLEAR disclaimers on their service, or just take it down until it can actually be trusted. #Blindness #VisualImpairment #Accessibility #AccessibilityMatters #Disability #DisabilityRights #CorporateResponsibility #LargeLanguageModels #MoralHazard

Big Tech Company: "What, you want to edit key biographical details of your profile such as gender and name because you had an awakening and would like to express your true self without losing all the social connections you've made on our platform? That's stupid." Big Tech Company: "Also we just rebranded so please stop using our old name."

The people who want you to believe that unelected Hunter Biden working with an energy company is an unforgivable ethics scandal for Joe Biden鈥攁lso want you to ignore the $2B MBS gave to the former guy's daughter & the 4 billionaires lavishing undisclosed gifts on Justice Thomas. Rules for thee but not for me is the right wing mantra. Don't fall for it. Organize. Activate. Vote them out.

Politico reports on Republicans in disarray after Ohio voters denied their attempt to stop voters from changing their Constitution. But everything they鈥檙e saying is about messaging and not the actual policies. Because that鈥檚 all Republicans do. They literally believe elections are a sham and our democracy is a time-limited dictatorship where you trick people into voting for you and then do whatever the hell you want. Then they act surprised at how unpopular they are. https://www.yahoo.com/news/anti-abortion-movement-clashes-over-083000473.html
