AI corporations can't get your money, because most people don't want to pay for that. And they need a lot of money to justify their investment.

So they're going after government contracts, with their powerful network of lobbyists. That way, your government can give them your money anyway. To pay for that, they will very likely cut in public services.

If you don't want that to happen, email or call your government representatives.

R U sad that this nice refreshing spring time is fading away now? Worry not! Here's something 2 comfort you, to get your spirits dancing again:

RADIO IRRTUM!

——— ↓↓↓ Deutsch Version below unten ↓↓↓ ———

The next issue of #RadioIrrtum! will arrive this Saturday, 2026/06/06, 8:00pm UTC+2/Berlin time/CET. On Alex Berlin at DAB+ K12D in #Berlin/Brandenburg + worldwide @ https://www.alex-berlin.de/radio-livestream .

A German language #radioShow exploring the sonic vastness of the #underground. Emitted transmissions may raise attention for new unheard #music. Don't worry about the #GermanLanguage aspect - this is about #music!

This time we'll have…

- #Trap from Germany that doesn't sound like Trap from Germany
- glitchy+noisy VHS cassette #SynthWave
- hefty Bristol #Bass #Disco
- distorted Bass
- #Jazz played by Bass musicians
- Shoegazing Bass
- groovy #IDM
- #CrustPunk
- #EggPunk
- even more styles of #Punk
- German #KinderLieder
- French #Casio #Sofa #Lofi Pop
- #SpokenWords #Dub
-
Yo! Lots of bass, lotta Punk. And what's in-between. 4 (four!) German language tracks this time and 1 in French (the rest in English).

I'll get into trouble trying to pronounce French album titles, and explain this and that in relation to the music and the artists played. That's the whole concept.

Besides, there will be #creativeCommons content, cuz music wants 2b free. Lots of tracks played aren't on #Spotify - yes, isn't a music industry friendly place. Most important: We've got outstanding #FediArtists like @phantasmagorie or @dlikdh !

I'll post playlist + manuscript later here. Having questions? I'll gladly answer. Just ask. CU all on Saturday! :)

PS: I'm quite happy with my "Bass Geologists" animation. See animated logo below.

#Radio Irrtum! kommt näher → Samstag, 06.06., 20:00 isses soweit auf Alex Berlin (DAB+ K.12D / Stream URL oben).

Also die seltsam funke(ln)de Radiosendung, in der planetenumfassende Weiten des musikalischen Untergrunds erforscht werden.

Mit:
- gut, steht ja oben inner Liste…
- …die is auch für Deutschsprachige erfassbar, oder?
- …hab nämlich nicht so viele Zeychen hier, entschuldigt!

Auf Jeden viel Bass, viel Punk + Dinge wie Kinderlieder (ja!) dazwischen.

Ich kämpfe in der Sendung mit der Aussprache inflationär zunehmender französischer Albumtitel und erkläre viel zum Gehörten – voll das Konzept bei mir!

Viel der gespielten Musik ist nicht bei Spotify zu finden, es gibt Creative Commons Inhalte und Musikprojekte direkt aus dem Fediverse sind auch am Start (s.o.).

Details in englisch oben, Playlist/Manuskript nach der Show hier drunter. Fragen einfach stellen – ich antworte!

Bis zur Sendung… vielleicht? :)

It's been a minute since I bothered having anything but a (now outdated) presentation on my website. Like, a pre-"AI" minute.

By now I realise all my work that has ever been online, visual and textual, has most likely been scraped to feed the glorified Tamagotchi. I hesitate putting anything new up for it to go through the grinder and train more idiocy.

Fellow neo-Luddites: what precautions do you take to make your words and images indigestible for the scrapers?

Para mis proyectos personales no suelo tener dinero para contratar ilustradores, de modo que optaba por la siguiente opción: pagar por fotos o ilustraciones de stock.

Pero todo se ha enmierdificado con la IA. Revisando mis correos del mercado social me ha llamado la atención este proyecto, de fotos de stock creados por humanos.

Por si os interesa como usuaries o creadores.

Y me ha dado la vida, voy a probar qué tal

Anubis is slop

Up is down, left is right, good is bad, cats are dogs, what the flip are we even doing anymore?????

🤦‍♂️

#slop #NoAI #AInt

The first ten minutes I spent on social media this morning made me feel all kinds of things. Why is it that people who routinely use LLMs are so loud and brash and proud, making these tools appear as essential and inevitable?

A post by a dev whose app I use said something along the lines of: "no use exercising your coding skills, AI is too good now, you can't compete with it anyway".

Another post by a user on an instance I try to engage with wrote - literally: "tired of overthinking every decision?" and then disclosed he had created an AI that will "run a weighted decision matrix so you don't have to." In all seriousness.

What is this dystopian world where human qualities are devalued, critical thinking is discarded and surveillance capitalism is ignored at the altar of AI worship?

If they are loud and proud, maybe so I can be too... but in the opposite direction.

This weekend I will start the MIT's Missing Semester class (the 2020 Lectures, so pre-AI) because in this brave new world hyping up techno-fascist LLMs, knowing the basics of code are essential IMHO.

So my March "project" will be a deep dive in MIT's Missing Semester and my April project will be off-grid mesh radio communication.

What about you, what are you doing to resist?

Special props to @emilymbender @cwebber and @tante for being outspoken on these issues... you're my beacons of hope

#NoAI

Dear Fedi friends,

I'd like to put together a list of people who are publicly resisting / calling out LLMs and AI slop.

Why? I enjoy reading my Fediverse feed in topical lists and I need something to counteract the unrelenting AI hype I see in the media.

Do you have any recommendations?

So far, at the top of my list I have:

@timnitGebru @emilymbender and @alexhanna of @DAIR

plus @cwebber @jaredwhite and @tante

Anyone else to recommend who advocates for #NoAI?

Every time one of these people open their mouths, I swear to God, it's a confession of how deep they are. Was human race not functioning before 2023?

#noai #enshittification

NEVER LET 'EM TURN YOUR VOLUME DOWN!
Wait, who's sayin' that?

RADIO IRRTUM!

Ur favorite radio show (isn't it?).

I was in a meeting and I was trying to provide some relevant #NoAI type articles and could only find four quickly.

Could people add more articles to this thread please?

Please share too!

I am dreaming of a somehow human-curated privacy-respectful search engine that returns results that are free from all this intolerable AI-slop soup pollution, simply while using good old keywords.

Wouldn't that be great?
Wouldn't that be the future? 😌🌱

Yesterday my VPS set off a warning, as it was hit by a huge spike in incoming traffic, peaking at 55GB at 2:15pm and lasting for an hour.

Upon investigating, it turns out it was my PeerTube instance that was targeted.

Where did the traffic come from?

meta-externalagent (aka Meta's web crawler which is used to grab content to train its AI system).

I feel a little bit violated thinking my Fediverse promo video was grabbed by it, sigh.

We've cracked 20,000 signatures on our petition against the corporate lawlessness of the AI rollout in Canada!

The Big Tech industry is steamrolling our democracy, our privacy, our labour market, our climate, and our local communities in its pursuit of power. It has to stop.

Please share widely; let's drive that number up, and make the House of Commons hear that we're not happy.

Is there an open source no-AI password manager out there?

Trying to bail on BitWarden... KeePassXC (with SyncThing) seems to come up as the most recommended, but they've been using copilot. Seems like they might still have the strongest anti-ai stance of the available options though, despite that.
