NEW: One of the most active hubs for sexually explicit AI "deepfakes" is hiding in plain sight. My latest takes a hard look at a 4chan board that's acting as a factory floor for online sexual abuse — where its users have victimized untold numbers of women and girls.

Yorgos Tranthimos FUCK it was RIGHT THERE the whole time
Castration Movie 2 is hands down one of the best films I’ve seen in my life, so supporting Part 3 means being part of cinematic history. Louise is amazing and her art is astonishing
If you were horrified by Grok making sexually explicit deepfakes of women and girls, you will want to read the research/reporting I have coming out later today. One of the most-active venues for that type of abuse is hiding in plain sight, and AFAIK my piece is the first to confront it head on.
It's live! Get on in here!

GOOD NEWS! Researchers at Stanford University have developed a UNIVERSAL vaccine known as GLA-3M-052-LS+OVA, that protects against a wide range of respiratory viruses, bacteria AND even allergens. The vaccine is delivered intranasally AND provides broad protection in the lungs for several MONTHS.

Spectator @spectator X.com Those school children and students of ten years ago, with their highly moralistic, Manichean politics and otherworldly theories on gender and race, are now the voters of today. They are also our first post-literate generation, a demographic which doesn't read newspapers, which doesn't read books willingly, who instead get their politics on their smartphones from emotive TikTok videos devoid of nuance, depth and context. This is the demographic with a reduced attention span that doesn't even listen to radio bulletins or watch the news from reputed broadcasting organisations. & Patrick West
Post-2008 crash Britain has been quite the intensive experiment in seeing how long you can hold back spring by cutting all the flowers, hasn’t it. How much longer will that work for, do we think?

Strong recommend if you are interested in cosmology. The videos are succinct – most around 6 minutes long – and the explanations are satisfying. Same goes for the "Quantum 101" videos.
Integrating bullshit engines/ Like-My-Outputs next token preditors into any environment related to maintaining the access to and security of data was basically only ever going to be a mistake
