THE SNOOPY SHOW • Cozy Winter Ambiance
Y’ALL!!
THIS IS NOT GOOD!!!
Jack Dorsey funded this with his nonprofit AndOtherStuff. The home page for the organization explicitly lists AI as one of its pillars, saying a goal is "making NOSTR the best social protocol for open source AI development and implementation"
What is open source AI?
It's a program that publicly shares its code for free online, so that anyone can use it for themselves. This means that anything this AI is trained on could eventually make its way into any business, social media site, etc. That uses this code. Or, if not, it'll have the ability to harvest content as well as this.
Even since the app doesn't allow AI openly on the videos themselves, the app is likely to use our original content to train its AI. You might have seen that some AI have experienced a positive feedback loop of declining quality, training itself on other AI slop until anything it produces is unintelligible.
This is likely an attempt to prevent that in video format
Then, any other company that wants to use the code can use this better trained AI to make it even harder to recognize AI across the board.
You can read about the connection to AndOtherStuff, as well as the developers' reasons for the project here:
TLDR; do not give Jack Dorsey any credit for this, do not download the app, and tell others not to either. It's a nostalgia-bait attempt at fueling another AI model
Spread the word
Possibly the greatest NPR exchange ever recorded
Because I don’t need ten ideas when I’m stuck.
I need one. THE one.
I’m not saying there’s only one way to write, but when I’m stuck, I go for a walk in the woods until the answer comes to me. Not ten answers. THE answer. The answer to how to tell the story I want to tell, in the way I want to tell it.
Art takes time. It takes mistakes. It takes courage. And we’re devaluing it by just trying to make products as quickly as possible.
I don’t want to have a book. I want to write a book.
ALTMy very first sketch of Soap. Someone asked how to draw his mohawk so I thought I should help by making a quick sketch on the fly. It's... not my best attempt (since I didn't even draw it on paper first) but I hope you enjoy anyways.
I'm back begging for money again unfortunately.
The UK government are in the process of moving everyone off old disability benefits onto the new system, and because my passport has expired I have to wait 6-8 weeks for an appointment to get myself verified. This literally means I won't get any money for nearly 2 months. I can't apply for an advance payment until I'm verified. I simply don't know what I'm going to do.
I'm scared about not paying my bills but the most important thing right now is food. If anyone has any spare $$ just so I can eat I will be eternally grateful 😭 I'm happy to show anyone screenshot proof if you DM me.
All I have is P@yp@l
Thank you & sorry for begging 😭
I'm back to being paid but because of how long it took it's messed up all my bills (& debt repayments). I got an advance but it still wasn't enough to catch up on everything. I'm swarmed with late fees & I'm starting to drastically lose weight from the stress of everything, mixed with shitty living conditions, mental health bs & lack of money to buy decent food.
I'm in a really bad place and stressing about money is making it worse 😭 I feel like shit for asking, I really do, but anything would be appreciated if you're able.
Ily guys so much ❤️
