A German regional court has ruled that Google is directly liable for the content of its AI search overviews. According to the court, previou
Let’s fucking go
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.
5. If the words are Google's, this solidifies the position of universities who demand that all answers from AI are fully cited. If all the in-line citations now have to be (Google, 2026), that's going to make it obvious when someone's trying to use Google as a source. There's still the difficulty with people who are academically dishonest by trying to pass off the AI writing as their own. 6. 91% accuracy is officially too low to use as a source of references, which means the AI can't be used as a source of references either. This makes it less legitimate for such purposes than Wikipedia of all places (Wikipedia might need date/time proof of when it was accessed for the reference to be valid, but at least it is possible to prove the link existed at a particular date and time). 7. This will help encourage the rollout of courses on how to avoid AI search for students who need academic accuracy, because it's statistically not good enough to use. 8. This strengthens the case intellectual property authors have against Google in the EU, as this is proof that an intellectual property transfer took place.
popular ad blockers, such as U origin, will be (mostly) unusable after the end of June and after a chrome update
Google is finally killing Manifest V2 extensions for good, either with Chrome 150 or 151, by the end of June 2026.
Google is switching from manifest V2 to V3
“As early as March 2025, this rendered some extensions—including popular ad blockers such as uBlock Origin—suddenly unusable, even though it was still possible to access them with a workaround.
By the end of June, however, even that will no longer work.
A future release of Chrome will block all add-ons still based on Manifest V2.”
There might be some other work arounds in the future
“Here’s what we know for sure: once the change goes live, there’s no going back.
It will be significantly more difficult to use ad blockers like uBlock Origin.
Doing so would require using developer settings and making changes that would make the browser less stable.”
The blocking of ad blockers isn’t a direct attack, but more of a side effect of switching to V3, though that’s what the company says
V3 is meant to be more safe and prevent rogue browser extensions from interfering deeply with a user’s system.
“Given that there have been repeated instances of extensions posing a serious threat, it’s understandable that Google wants to prevent that from happening.
The fact that it can also hamper ad blockers with the same move is just a bonus that Google is unlikely to be too upset about.”
There might be some work arounds in the future, or you can switch to alternative browser like Firefox
this reads like it was submitted to a local newspaper in the early 1900s
yknow its interesting how something can impact one demographic in a completely different way than everyone else. in the exorcist when the demon starts speaking in greek, to most people its creepy. but if youre greek and you suddenly start hearing the demon speak perfect fucking greek its genuinely the biggest scare of the movie. you just do not expect to ever hear your language in american movies so it catches you so badly off guard, it feels like the movie is talking directly to you
the first time my dad saw it, it was with his american friends. and when she started speaking greek he turned to one of them and was like "re malaka did you hear that in english?"

its weird that some animals build elaborate structures instinctively, but man, king of the structure-builders, doesnt descend from animals that built anything more complex than a rudimentary nest or burrow. primates sort of a black horse candidate. in the interspecies house race
i saw a post earlier today and now i can’t find it but someone was like the only reason i get through studying is by saying “let’s go steal a grade” where they just imagine they’re doing research for a leverage con and they have to know all the information to pull it off successfully. I’m at my internship rn and i found the original score for the og show and redemption and let me tell you i have never been more productive
@imaginable-horror you are an inspiration 😌🫡
Replace imposter syndrome with the conman method! You're a fraud, and you're such a competent fraud that the mark is never going to realize what hit them until the gloat.
[Image ID: Tumblr post from imaginable-horror on May 24 reading: New study technique called "let's go steal a grade" in which I pretend to be part of the Leverage crew and study for my exams as if I'm studying for the grift. I need enough knowledge that I can con the mark without getting called out. /End ID]
if you're having trouble sleeping the best you can do is put a bright object close to your face and look at it for at least 30 minutes. if that doesn't work you can close your eyes but make sure to think really hard about a bunch of bullshit

btw, i live in an area that is mostly accepting of trans people so I'll talk a little about what basic respect looks like.
people don't ask for my deadname. cis men flirt with me. cis lesbians flirt with me. I'm not excluded from hanging out with people. people don't ask about my genitals. people compliment my appearance. a religious cis man from a culture where men pay for the women paid for my dinner because he was the man. I'm visibly transfem. i do not hide it. i am treated as a woman without asking to be.
This is transfeminism!
