Just a reminder that the "existential risk" from AI is not that somehow we'll make Skynet or the computers from The Matrix.

Nobody is going to give a large language model the nuclear codes.

The existential risk is to marginalized people who will be silently refused jobs or health care or parole, or who will be targeted by law enforcement or military action because of an ML model's inherent bias, and that because these models are black boxes, it will be nearly impossible for victims to appeal.

So I know that game dev companies likely want to focus more on making new games rather than porting their old content (and perhaps that the market isn't completely there for this), but if they're just gonna C+D emulators et al, why not just get people to re-release your game on your new consoles/platforms? It would likely make them more money.

Do you like &D or other systems? Or ?
I'm working on a CRPG system and game that will allow for people to make their own CRPGs like Baldur's Gate. If you want to see how it goes or just hang out with me while I work on this, I'll be streaming on Twitch and YT on Tuesday

If someone orders an iced cappuccino from me as a one more time, I'm gonna charge them an extra dollar fifty and then make them a latte.

Growing up, I always thought "Luddite" referred to someone who refused to learn how to use new technology because the old tech (including pencil and paper) works reliable enough for them. How wrong I was.

The Luddites weren’t backward technophobes. They saw factory owners using tech to degrade their livelihoods and they fought back — first by trying to negotiate, then writing to Parliament, and finally smashing the machines.

As workers today organize and strike over bosses using digital tech to upend their industries, there’s a lot we can learn from the Luddites’ story. I was thrilled to dig into it with @brianmerchant!

Everyone in the bargaining unit is appreciating the love and concern we're seeing in the Fediverse today.

We're back to bargaining next week, and as we have news to share, look for it here.

Love Zooey. She is a star making positive changes in this world that will never be forgotten. I have zero doubt. <3

(Did you know she is also basically an expert on the history of medieval technology? I’m obsessed.)
