All this conversation about the need for AI regulation is distracting from the fact that we *already* have laws both at the national and international level that are being massively violated by OpenAI, Anthropic, Microsoft, Google, Amazon and the rest of big tech. We clearly have enforcement problems that the conversation around AI governance and regulation is ignoring

So the non-profit Wikimedia foundation hypocritically went for the hype and partnered with genocidal #BigTech in January. And now, unsurprisingly, Wikipedia editors had to implement "new policies and restrict a number of contributors who were paid to use AI to translate existing Wikipedia articles into other languages after they discovered these AI translations added AI “hallucinations,” or errors, to the resulting article." https://www.404media.co/ai-translations-are-adding-hallucinations-to-wikipedia-articles/

@alineblankertz @bmftr_bund This is beyond shameful. Specially considering all the exploited women data workers behind these softwares and the open, public misogyny of the creators of these tools.
More about Habermas supporting war crimes:
Peter Thiel just invested in a start up producing AI infused collars for cattle. „A big selling point for the collars is the ability to set up virtual fencing, using sound and vibration cues delivered through the collar to keep the animals within a specific range. Halter also makes some other major promises, like helping farmers keep tabs on potential indicators of illness and tracking breeding cycles“. https://gizmodo.com/peter-thiels-cowgorithm-powered-cattle-collar-company-raises-220-million-2000737447
It’s not fascism, it’s western imperialism. Calling it fascism looks like a way of diminishing the role of us white people. A way of othering our racism to those at the right extremes of our societies

@Lilith@chaos.social armselig. Von all den Sachen, was Kelber hätte sagen können, um so ein Gesetz zu rechtfertigen/begründen/kritisieren... kommt nur ein unverschämtes "hö, hö, hö, könnt ihr alle nicht lesen"..
Our European concept of digital sovereignty is just an euphemism for digital supremacy.
Habermas spent his last years ethically washing Israel's genocidal attacks on Palestine in good old German exceptionalism style https://newlinesmag.com/argument/juergen-habermas-contradicts-his-own-ideas-when-it-comes-to-gaza/

@alineblankertz @bildoperationen peak white feminism "Die Schader Stiftung hat einen Open Call gestartet und wissenschaftliche Institute in der Umgebung eingeladen, eigene Frauen vorzuschlagen, die sie für übergangen hielten. Ab diesem Moment wurde das Projekt *partizipativ* , was ein wichtiger Schritt war."

Find the very shameful, cynical, gaslighting explanation for the EU abstention here: https://www.eeas.europa.eu/delegations/un-new-york/eu-explanation-vote-–-un-general-assembly-action-a80l48-declaration-trafficking-enslaved-africans_en?s=63
KI und Klimaschutz gehen bei NGOs nur Hand in Hand, wenn diese bspw. von Umweltzerstörer Migros mitfinanziert und gefördert werden.
„The University promised “to pursue all rights and claims for necessary relief” if a small Michigan community won’t pump water into a (nuclear weapons AI) data center.“ What happened to the „if it isn’t ethical, it isn’t science“ principle? https://www.404media.co/university-claims-withholding-water-from-nuclear-weapons-data-center-is-unlawfully-discriminatory-to-data-centers/
