writing by AI proponents has the same disordered quality of online journals written by the desperately ill, with the caveat that the ill often seem like good people befallen by misfortune, and not craven maniacs who stole a cursed glowing object from a cave, refusing to put it back, as it ruins them

The first Gen AI ad I saw that showed a use case scenario was a person had to read a screenplay and then didn't, so they trick the person they're meant to do this for into thinking they did. The entire purpose of this technology is to trick people and it turns out no one likes being tricked.
The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

if the constant barrage of ads wasn't enough to convince you, install an adblocker today, so your photos, messages, etc. won't be accessible to a third party who displays a malware-laden ad on your screen. Adguard/Adguard For Safari seem to work best on my computer and phone, if that helps
Just visiting a page or refreshing an app can be enough to fall victim to a malware attack in which your personal data is stolen from a laptop or phone, researchers have found. You are not even required to “click” on anything. www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/10...
