Rejecting LLMs isn’t about rejecting their utility or failing to be aware of their power —it’s about rejecting that political project; born out of an awareness that any use of these machines at all promulgates that project and assembles me into adjacent responsibility for its commission.

you cannot embrace and praise the success of street-level resistance to ICE without acknowledging debts to a hell of a lot of confrontational organizing that has been and will be coded as violent. particularly if you treat ”property crimes” as violent.

This is a bad piece. 1. It uncritically makes use of prosecution materials to piece together what activists thought and did 2. It whitewashes resistance in Minn, Chicago, and elsewhere 3. It betrays ignorance of movement history, from abolitionism through the panthers through M4BL
Liberal Currents"Their actions ensured that they struggled to achieve sympathetic media coverage outside of a few left-wing outlets, struggled to attract material or legal support (the ACLU, for instance, refused to touch the case), and failed to achieve positive virality in the larger culture."

The $ from ICE, I’ve been told by LEO is too small for big cities (so it’s not attractive) but vital for small towns where $150k is a lot to them.

It’s basically like wealth redistribution to rural cops, who also happen to kill a higher percent of people than urban.

The city of Los Angeles bulldozed Chavez Ravine in the 1950s, displacing thousands of Mexican American residents to make way for Dodger Stadium. A new digital archive, Chavez Ravine: An Unfinished History, preserves the story of the families who lived there. Read more: buff.ly/zltbWt5

No one who's just "digitizing" would buy up dozens of copies of the same book - they only need one. But these companies are buying up every instance they find, so no one else has it. That's not preservation, that's monopolization.

Yup - this is intentional destruction and compiling a privately owned data set they can monetize. Come pay for these pre-AI books that only exist in our database, because we destroyed the physical copies! Anthropic isn't selling the access, but hoping it makes their LLM better than everyone else's.

As others have pointed out, this input will be used to try and make slop less detectable. It's not there for our benefit.

yes, actually I do think AI-use/adoption is a fundamental declaration of what you value and what you don't and its really silly to believe that such declarations won't be noticed by those around you
Hypervisible“…the same mechanisms that drive people to grow wary of — and hostile toward — friends, co-workers and family members with different political beliefs are beginning to shape attitudes toward AI.”
