CIRCLE WITH A DOT

Another day, another disgusting development involving AI.

Is Spotify Enabling Massive Impersonation of Famous Jazz Musicians?

How did trumpet legend Nat Adderley become a white guy playing with a three-handed bassist?

@Lizette603_23 @pluralistic My pleasure.

@drwho @pluralistic Web rings!

@pluralistic These are great recommendations, and I can't wait to try them!

It's interesting how, as web search fails, word of mouth has been taking its place. In that spirit, I'd like to add that I use uBlock Origin rules to block parts of specific websites that I don't like. For example, these two custom rules will banish the New York Times Opinion section:

www.nytimes.com##div.css-1w1paqe:has(section#large-opinion-label)

www.nytimes.com##li[data-testid="nav-item-Opinion"]

@pluralistic We must normalize replying AI;DR.

I see the #Firefox "block AI" setting has arrived. It's clearly labeled and easy to find in Settings.

It would be even better if #AI were deactivated by default, but I give #Mozilla credit for listening to the criticism. It's still a million percent better than Google Chrome.
