@GossiTheDog It has to be really bad if you need to get rid of someone who did 4 years at facebook and 7 at palantir over their objections to your plan.

@GossiTheDog

‘sexual discrimination against men’ should read 'proper rejection of sex pests'

but ChatGPT sees monetizing sexually transgressive role playing as a lucrative market, and this executive stood in the way

they will make AI agent "women" who will act in ways that will prime MAGA chuds to amplify their harassment of women in real life. by creating not delusional expectations, but malignant expectations of how women respond to sexually abusive behavior

enshittification is a threat

Exactly.

There was a great piece on this in The Conversation (I’m sure there must be others too) - https://theconversation.com/most-ai-assistants-are-feminine-and-its-fuelling-dangerous-stereotypes-and-abuse-272335?utm_medium=article_clipboard_share&utm_source=theconversation.com

The Conversation

Most AI assistants are feminine – and it’s fuelling dangerous stereotypes and abuse

Without intervention, we risk hardcoding human misogyny into the digital infrastructure of everyday life.
