The backlash made Google pause the feature that made it easy, but it's of course still possible, and now put in everybody's heads.
It was so hard for Google to predict the harm. Asking experts is a struggle for tech companies 🤪

@faineg.bsky.social: I used to do some work on the ethical use of satellite and drone imagery for aid and disaster response, and it is genuinely hard to express in words what a dangerous, stupid thing Google is doing by making it easy to use GenAI to create faked satellite imagery:

Läste just igår om hur vissa leverantörer av attefallshus har börjat leverera drönarhangarer till hjärtstartare. Intressanta utmaningar i det svenska klimatet.
Fantastiskt i kombination med SMS-livräddare.
Jag inbillar mig att trigger-ordet kan vara "AI".

Drönarhangar till hjärtstartare - Svenska Skalhus
Blev väldigt intressant för mig nu att Everdrone (leverantören av de autonoma drönarna för hjärtstartare) inte använder marknadsföringsbegreppet "AI" någonstans i sina texter eller pressmeddelanden (som jag hittat ännu).
Oerhört förtroendeingivande.

The Africa map debacle is a glimpse of a future with "AI".
Not knowing. Not caring.
The most unbelievably wrong map I have ever seen at an international, official event. A huge insult and embarassment.
"AIDS? We don't even know where your countries are."

I've been writing and speaking for many years now on how Africa's proportions are misrepresented on most world maps. This was not a direction I expected. 🧐

Sailfish OS - European alternative for Mobile operating systems
Enlightening and scary talk by Bruno Giussani. ’Why Big Tech is Incompatible with Democracy’.
”Every dependence can be turned into coercion and submission.”
Giussani also has many good recommendations for the path forward and increasing resilience.

Europe’s digital difference can be Technology that does not spy on you™
I also believe more and more in the idea of hardware built with the intent to block spying. I’m really rooting for the Jolla phone.

Reading is resistance. As ”AI” companies purchase and destroy books, it’s an apt time for people to start building little free libraries. Plans and blueprints here:

I just backed @stopgenai.com’s new book project.
@fasterandworse.com: Consider supporting @stopgenai.com's Kickstarter campaign for her new book, Recovering After Gen AI, scheduled for October release. Kim has previously published cybersecurity books with O'Reilly and Wiley, but is now self-publishing her Big Tech critical books. www.kickstarter.com/projects/kim...

As it appears, he clapped for 3-4 seconds between speakers while no clock was running for speaking time. His wife was next up to speak and was standing ready at the podium as her spouse was carried out and she burst into tears. "Don't hurt him."
@axbom.com: In 80 years scholars will write essays about how people started being arrested for clapping, and how reactions to this development were timid at best.

Jag är verkligen, verkligen intresserad av att få tag på ett eget fysiskt exemplar av boken Datamakt också (att äga). Man vet aldrig, kanske har någon själv ett ex i hyllan, eller har sett den hos någon släkting…
