overview for Guamer

Yeah it's for mayor, but if this really is "the land of opportunity" (I know it isn't, just humor me) then people shouldn't have to be lifelong political agents before even thinking of running for anything.

The Ratfuckery begins: Despite claims they would not be endorsing a mayoral candidate in this election, the New York Times Editorial Board has put out a hit piece on Socialist candidate Zohran Mamdani in c/politics@hexbear.net

Yeah, anyone who reads them and gives their opinion editorials any weight were very likely already Cuomosexuals.

I think there's a distinction to be had between "AI slop" and "AI cuisine" (Bad and good uses of AI) (hexbear.net)

Should AI-generated art receive the same praise as that made by hand? No. But I do appreciate how it helps people, specifically those who may not have the time or patience for the arduous years of practice art skills usually take to hone, to create and visualize things that would otherwise be stuck in their head. As long as it's not passed off as handmade, I don't really have a problem with it personally.

I also think that AI is great for general comedy purposes, whether that's audio, video, or meme images. I've seen great uses in this way whether it's the various AI U.S. president videos where they make them say silly shit, or the Jack Black Elden Ring movie trailer that was posted here recently.

Basically, if AI is used for stuff like that, I don't think it deserves the same hostility as when it's used in it's worst possible ways (Tech bros putting far too much faith in it and replacing people, usually leading to their regret).
