What are good examples of concrete acts of resistance against "AI"?

An excellent list that sadly seems to become outdated (maintenance has stalled, for unknown reasons).

While waiting for an update, you might consider using this fork:

uBlockOrigin-AI-Blocklist

uBlockOrigin-AI-Blocklist - Fork and expansion of laylavish' AI blocklist on github. Manually curated blocklist for uBlock Origin and uBlacklist aiming to remove ai results from search engine results. Currently supports DDG, Bing, Google, Startpage and Brave.

I know :')

Since you're Potsdam based, I assume 1. you know some German and 2. you might therefore enjoy this AI, art and cake themed take:

@alineblankertz @gerrymcgovern @asrg @danmcquillan Learn a skill that they make “obsolete” (drawing, writing, coding, etc) and post about it, even if you dont think its all that good.

I’ve been learning to draw for the last year now

AI is about as "cool" as a red MAGA hat.

Push that "uncool" AI image. because it is true and accurate and it hits. No one worth talking to is still MAGA. Anyone worth talking to, already hates them.

and educate. IRL and online, educate yourself, your friends, your co-workers,-- and, if you have kids, educate them, especially them.

Anti-AI talking points are not hard to find--use them.

Track, publicize and oppose new datacenters.

The simplest act opposition against #Ai is to engage with politicians to lobby to #regulateAi

It's so effective, Thiel says it's an act of #Antichrist

Everything else is just window dressing.

@penguinrebellion @hadokowa @alineblankertz @Aepasek Just added this to my Pi-Hole. Thanks.

@n_dimension
I strongly disagree. Wanting to “regulate AI” is to legitimise the existence of “AI”. That is not what I understand as refusal or resistance.

[n_dimension@infosec.exchange]

@alineblankertz

We legitimise the existence of carcinogenic cigarettes

We legitimise the existence of militaries

We legitimise the existence of usurious "banking" system that literally destroys lives

We legitimise the existence of industry that destroys earth life support systems

We legitimise the existence of an economic system based in exploitation of the workers

I could go on forever...

The alternative to prohibition is regulation.
And if for some freaky reason, #Ai dissapears, the only people who will have access to Ai will be billionaires and thats not the future you think you want.

The #AiBubble, if it happens will just mean consolidation of the industry into fewer hands.

Unlike most of the Luddites who are just going through their first #AiAnxiety, I've had 35 years to think about AI and humanity, #RegulateAi is the only rational way to mitigate the #Airisks

That's not just my opinion, it's what the international peak science and political class thinks (Bletchely and Seoul agreements)
