Seeding the “maybe our model is exhibiting self-awareness?” narrative to obliterate the “OpenAI is a negligent and potentially criminal actor” narrative is a reputation management move exclusive to this industry. Not a stunt, but a desperate need to control the narrative.
NEW: Meta has run dozens of paid ads that include explicit, AI-generated child sexual abuse material in recent months. Some as recently as this week. "These are ads that were reviewed, approved, and allowed to run by Meta, never encountering interference while the company coll…

People now hate data centers so much that they're falling for anti-data center AI #slop on Facebook. Can't even say if that's good news or bad news, probably both? www.404media.co/ai-grifters-...
Weird how people react poorly when you tell them your product is going to ruin their livelihood, their future, and the planet.

«Generative AI is harmful enough when we understand it as a conventional technology, but if we confuse fluency at generating text with consciousness or moral agency, we’re at risk of assigning responsibility to entirely the wrong parties whenever anyone uses a chatbot.»
“Wharton School researchers have dubbed this phenomenon ‘cognitive surrender,’ in which users shift from treating AI as a tool to treating it as an authority, accepting its answers rather than actively evaluating them.”
In visual culture & media theory, images from diffusion models are often analyzed through data critique: comparing what's produced to what's ingested. In this pre-print, I propose to look at the digestive system too: the decisions built into the system that automate specific i…
I hear critical positions towards so-called «artificial intelligence» nowadays framed more and more as «rejectionism», and this is especially formulated as a critique of the left. The argument often goes something like this: Rather than seeing the potentials of AI, the left merely rejects it 1/
This image has been widely shared on social media as a document of the human tragedy that has unfolded in Ceuta and an indictment of the EU's murderous border regime in the Mediterranean. The problem is: It's AI-generated. It has a SynthID watermark, as can be checked with OpenAI's Verify tool 1/
Ideologically, generative AI is a 19th century technology: the flawed dream that once you have assembled a supposedly total archive of culture via technical media, you can use it to statistically derive new meaning from patterns of the past
Since 1996, the business models of Silicon Valley are largely based on legally protected unaccountability, enforced world-wide through US dominance. Generative AI is both a product and an escalation of this model: It's unaccountability as a service
Bis zum Beweis des Gegenteils gehe ich ab jetzt davon aus, dass ihr alle AI-generierte Shadowaccounts von Martin Burckhardt seid
It's becoming harder and harder to visually tell apart the official trailer for a $250 million Hollywood superhero blockbuster from some AI #slop a guy prompted together in an afternoon. For the art of cinema, that might actually be good news
There's a certain kind of post-humanist theoretical kitsch that's even worse than humanist kitsch (especially concerning AI)
What I love about this platform is when a half-baked hot take of mine brings people to seriously debate which century to blame for generative AI – with great and profound arguments, no less
