There's a famous story (explained here: https://www.upworthy.com/bartender-explains-why-he-swiftly-kicks-nazis-out-of-his-punk-bar-even-if-theyre-not-bothering-anyone ) where a bartender explains why it's important to kick out Nazis who visit a bar even he is polite. Basically it's because they bring their friends and then it gets worse and worse at the bar until they are the only people left. Therefore a bar that allows Nazis even if it's only some going is a Nazi-bar.
Twitter under Elon Musk has been like that for a long time. But now it's even worse because now Twitter is not only a Nazi-bar, it's a pedo-bar too so I'm urging any Twitter holdouts to finally quit the site and if you are looking for a good replacement switch to Bluesky. I also urge you to try getting anyone you can to leave Twitter too. We cannot for any longer tolerate what Twitter is doing.
so x dot comâs ai generated CSAM and they admitted it may violate US law and ⦠i havenât seen in anyone in power say much at all or call to stop using the platform

(10,200 posts)When Waymo drives into a fire site the taxi doesnt issue an apology. Having AI issuing an apology is some sick shit.

Unfortunately, I see that some folk out there will begin worshiping Grok or another form of AI as God.
This is why Asimov, in his writings, established the Laws of Robotics. He was certainly prescient!

(37,045 posts)Musk bought it. I don't understand the defense (here and elsewhere) of progressives staying on TwitX.
