when the allegedly cishet neurotypical relative hits you with the "well i think everyones a little bit on the spectrum" "its normal to think about kissing your girl friends sometimes" "sure i've never felt like a woman but i can't change what i am." and you have to suddenly carefully evaluate whether theyre just being dismissive or if you've unlocked some very interesting potential information about your grandmother.

Landmark German ruling declares Google's AI Overviews are Google's own words and makes it liable for false answers

A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previou

[ayeforscotland]

Let’s fucking go

[made-in-manetheren]

This is HUGE.

1. The court holds Google responsible for statements made by its AI, considering them Google's statements (search engines have limited liability for results in their engine as they're the words of other sites/companies/people), meaning when their AI lies/hallucinates they're liable for the defamation/harm resulting from those statements.

2. Google's defense that customers are generally aware of the lack of reliability and are responsible for fact checking was dismissed. As the court pointed out, that would "significantly diminish" AI Search's stated purpose and it can't be distinguished from Google's business practices/statements as a search tool.

3. Studies have found about 91% of Google's everyday AI responses are accurate, leaving millions of searches per HOUR with potential liability for falsehoods. 56% of correct responses weren't supported by the sources the AI listed. Both of which mean Google is now liable for a LOT more AI "errors."

4. Google was held liable for 80% of court costs in this case and this precedent is expected to reverberate around the world. This is a massive shift from the 3rd-party search provider role Google has previously played and it comes right as they've tied ALL searches to their AI search.

TL;DR Google reeeeeally stepped in it this time.

they really don't respect the time of disabled people. your application can take up to 12 weeks. the specialist waitlist is 3 years. your assessment will be any time within the next 6 months. let us know if you cannot attend this appointment you waited 7 weeks for and we'll reschedule next year. we've decided to assess you at this time and day and you have to be available or any support you dared to apply for is not going to happen. and in between these long bouts of waiting you have to survive the everyday

a few weeks ago i was thinking about how online there's always some discourse cycle or other where people go "everyone does/should/can do XYZ and if you don't you're a bad person / whatever other negative statement" and a disabled person says "i actually can't do that because i'm disabled" and everyone goes "look at this loser! bean soup theory proven again! nobody was thinking about disabled people this obviously isn't about you." which, aside from the fact that, well, yes, the fact that nobody was thinking about disabled people is part of the problem. the thing is is that disabled people also consider ourselves part of "everyone." on account of disabled people are also people, and thus fit into the category that means "every person." and this applies to a lot of other groups as well ofc. i've just been thinking about it recently like. is it really a "bean soup theory" moment or did somebody just (correctly) assume they are a part of "everybody"

[aropride]

an example i see every couple months on twitter is

some twitter user or other (as if having a new original thought and not rehashing old discourse): nobody NEEDS to use doordash and if you use it you're a capitalist who's exploiting the lower class disabled person: i rely on it some days because i'm in too much pain to make food twitter user 1: it literally is not that hard to make food everyone can warm up food in a microwave / throw together a pbj / eat cereal out of the box disabled person: i can't do that because of xyz twitter user 2: you must be rich then. everybody who uses doordash is rich disabled person: no i have very little money but i'm forced to spend what i have when i need to eat and cant make myself food twitter user 3: why dont you just have a friend/relative/etc come over and make you food / use [food program they think is far more accessible and universal than it actually is] / etc disabled person: if that was possible i would obviously be doing that but [any of a million reasons that isn't possible for them]

etc etc for eternity do you see what i mean. when they could have just said. "the vast majority of people dont need to use doordash and only use it bc they dont think about the people being exploited by doordash bc theyre so focused on the convenience of food delivery" or something like that

^This is an Example. this post is not about food delivery, its ethics, or its alternatives
