I am sort of frustrated about that post I made about Google Gemini giving an AI summary of Tumblr users if you google a URL because it quickly turned into a long post where people started sharing all the things the AI got wrong about them, and I'm not saying it isn't good for a laugh when an AI is wrong, but I feel like people are missing the point. Who cares if the AI offers information about you that's wrong? What's worrying is all the information the AI got right.

That initial accidental google I did of a mutual returned an AI summary that was absolutely correct, and featured information about them that would not have been obvious from a quick perusal of their blog. The first few times I googled myself the AI overview was 100% correct. The version of that post that is circulating is not the one where I shared that the AI gave me someone's real name. I had hoped that it had screwed up and it wasn't their real name after all, but no, I checked with them, and just by googling someone's Tumblr URL, I got their honest to goodness legal name. Do you have any idea how dangerous that is? Like yeah I get that it's fun to go, "Haha, AI bad at collecting information," but that's not the problem. The problem is that sometimes AI good at collecting information, and it can collect a lot more a lot faster than a normal human can, by running multiple searches simultaneously and cross-referencing a lot of different documents all in a few seconds, for a level of snooping that would take a real person hours or even days, if they could do it at all.

That is so dangerous and I need people to be angrier about the fact that Google thinks it's okay to let their AI do this for online users. If you google your legal name and you're not already famous the AI won't say shit. Because that would be creepy and invasive! So why does Google think it's all hunky dory to do it for random internet users?

If you're reading this and thinking that sounds incredibly scary/unsafe, please go into your blog settings and make sure the setting to discourse external searching is turned on!!!!

^ it should look like this ^

I've had that setting on for a long time. When I saw this post I tried googling my account and no AI summary appeared. I decided to experiment, and I turned that setting off and googled my url again–that time the AI summary appeared. It got a lot wrong, but it did get some things right, and had a concerning amount of information considering a few minutes before the AI summary didn't even appear. It also had the state I live in listed, accurately. That's not something I'm super secretive about, I have said it on here before, but it's also not something I necessarily want an AI telling someone umpromted just because they Googled my URL–frankly I think it's absolutely insane that the AI is able to do that without people questioning it. I quickly turned the discourage external searching setting back on, and I'm no longer getting the AI overviews. But it's definitely something we all should be aware of–especially on other social media sites that don't have that feature.

OHH SHITTINGS...

I was playing roblox. Normal, right? Expected??

A shockwave cosplayer came up to me and said he was going to ELECTROCUTE ME because I was a butterfly. (My blurr cosplay on roblox is actually just blurr but as a butterfly due to a friend I have INSISTING im secretly a bug.)

I have made a picture to show how it felt.

[l0calityl0st]

"What good is a butterfly if not for display?"

A lazy representation of my feelings once again. Except, its how I feel like im not good for anything except looking pretty.

Hence, the blurr being the butterfly thats being pinned.

Inspo for the the blurr design tho

(Yes its quite literally just... me. My blurr cosplay.)

I see myself in blurr, so I project myself onto him.

Its a coping mechanism.

"Stop playing roblox and go work on your au" no... no im okay...

"ANGUISH BEFORE ANGER"

______

This is smth I worked on over a couple days, simply portraying how one can pay for taking away someone's bodily autonomy by having theirs stripped away from THEM. In a way, this represents how I often respond in violent ways whenever someone I know/is close with makes me feel like I have no choice over my own body.

I see myself in blurr, so he gets to feel my anger and anguish.

Closeups and alt versions :3 + scrapped iteration w/ tfa shockwaves eye.
