Whatever we may feel about AI and its longterm usefulness, we can agree that #Anthropic and #OpenAI's regulatory capture strategy to kill #OpenSource doesn't benefit anyone but these companies.
We don't need another telecommunications style monopoly. We don't want OpenAI to become the Comcast of AI.
Why, then, is Hank Green pushing #AIDoomerism to his largely #Liberal audience?
I wrote about it here.

This post will not appear in the timeline of most Pixelfed users.
Because considered at "not pretty enough" for them (despite the great illustration by @davidrevoy )
It worth asking the question:
Is Pixelfed sawing off the branch that the Fediverse is sitting on?

Was talking with a friend a few months ago about Alan Dye and how he even got that job to begin with, and I said this: “But like there’s Steve Lemay or Patrick Coffman, and neither of them got this job for some reason.”
Anyway, it’s great that Lemay finally got the job.

Early proponents of this stuff were warned *directly* by browser engineers (incl. yours truly) that this would scale horribly, and indeed the post doesn't even cover the worst performance aspects of this nonsense: by repeatedly perturbing the global style set, CSS-in-JS runtimes *destroy the browser's layout caches*. A bonfire of the sanities.
