  • Is there another case with over +200 plus killed?

    I’m all for hypotheticals, but the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion lead to millions of people having this exact conversation about media bias, so when you associate the death toll in this context, I am reminded of all those people who fell for blatant misinformation and critize good journalism.

    The OC’s comment reflects the context around the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion exactly. I would think it is naive to have not made the connection, but I also followed the war moderately close.


  • Why do you think I only know of singular hospital attacks? You made it up and judged me for it, because I corrected misinformation.

    And isn’t the Al-Ahli Arab Hospital explosion the only alleged hospital attack with 200+ killed in a single strike? Any reasonable person would connect the above hypothetical with that important awful event.

    Misinformation must be corrected. That shouldn’t only apply to your enemies.



  • AI generation is a gradient from clean up to controlling every pixel.

    If an artist draws the line art, does basic coloring, but has a network do the sharing, that’s art. How far does that carry?

    Surely, anything that had heart and soul poured into it is art, right? Text prompt, or otherwise. You don’t have to resonate with it. You can be scared of it.

    But you said imagination, feeling, skill make up art. It is bold, or naive, to think those who create AI works doesn’t have these traits, like to say the hobbies, programmers, and the curious, aren’t artists.



  • What should be done about low post count but swarm account spam? On twitter, I probably blocked 2000 accounts, and no matter what the next day there would be new bot accounts. It made replies unusable. These accounts would only have a few posts, but they make up for it in account volume.

    You can’t report these accounts fast enough, and the information space will be dominated by bad actors.

    I have no issue with bots as a concept if they are marked as on. What I take issue with is the overwhelming of the feed by bots with an agenda and inaction to stop it.

    I don’t think enough is done to combat this.
