I just think "data center water usage should be federally regulated," while less catchy and less emotionally charged, is a stronger political stance than "fuck AI." Targets the systemic flaw rather than a product, you know?

[aetherograph]

AGREE But let's take it farther:

Data centres shouldn't be allowed in areas that experience drought or are Koppen classification B category (arid and semi-arid).

They should have federally regulated water usage and be required to have heat and exhaust treatment ON SITE

They should have daily penalties for failing to meet zero emissions targets scaled to their profit margin (i.e. a percentage rather than a set amount) THAT ARE ACTUALLY ENFORCED.

NO DEFERRED PROSECUTION AGREEMENTS. EVER.

They must show provenance for EVERY piece of art and writing in their data sets, and show that they have made contracts to use EVERY SINGLE ONE before they are allowed to use them. Hold them to the same standards as every other form of media.

They must inform the end-user about data privacy and that chatbots are not a substitute for therapy, research, programming, work, school, and are not to be used for anything but novelty.

All of this would severely hobble them and expose how much of a turkey GenAI actually is. I doubt they can make money off it without theft and lies. It's a very expensive toy.

I don’t care about leaving a legacy I want to be laid to rest quietly and let plants grow in the soil where my body lies so my energy is returned to the earth

“Hot and bothered” in the sense that it is 90 degrees out and I am extremely annoyed

[tsarina-anadyomene]

being in academia is kind of like where you're on everest and you see the frozen bodies of the other people who've tried it strewn about everywhere and you think "okay, but that's them and i'm me"
