Who would have known? Asking AI things was never a real job?!

A Judge Accepted AI Video Testimony From a Dead Man in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 32 points 4 days ago (2 children)

I’d really like to hope that this is a one off boomer brained judge and the precedent set is this was as stupid an idea as it gets, but every time I think shot can’t get dumber…

A Judge Accepted AI Video Testimony From a Dead Man (www.404media.co)
 

An AI avatar made to look and sound like the likeness of a man who was killed in a road rage incident addressed the court and the man who killed him: “To Gabriel Horcasitas, the man who shot me, it is a shame we encountered each other that day in those circumstances,” the AI avatar of Christopher Pelkey said. “In another life we probably could have been friends. I believe in forgiveness and a God who forgives. I still do.”

It was the first time the AI avatar of a victim—in this case, a dead man—has ever addressed a court, and it raises many questions about the use of this type of technology in future court proceedings. 

The avatar was made by Pelkey’s sister, Stacey Wales. Wales tells 404 Media that her husband, Pelkey’s brother-in-law, recoiled when she told him about the idea. “He told me, ‘Stacey, you’re asking a lot.’”

Top Democrat calls for compliance with Elon Musk’s ridiculous demands in c/[email protected]

The Dems are so good at being the opposition party that they are… complying with the fascists? This is pathetic.

Donald Trump Was Recruited by the KGB Under Codename ‘Krasnov’ Claims Former Soviet Spy Chief in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 months ago

Whether Trump was KGB or not, he likes Putin free from any outside influence. Just like he digs Erdoğan and Milei because they are authoritarians, he digs Putin too. How does this not compute?!

The Tik-Tok inspired use of unalive has seeped beyond the boundaries of the app. It drives me crazy when people say that in real life. The dystopian vibes really start to hit when censored online jargon bleeds into IRL. For the sake of pushing past it - it makes me want to kill myself.

Paul Ryan was really into a band that sings a song about this until they got too political.

Macklemore’s support of Palestine goes back to at least his time in college - this song is far from performative. Much love to him for releasing this and continuing to speak on Palestine.

I appreciate the guide and effort to put these resources together. Some days I feel like I am screaming into a void because people have just accepted being the product that the likes of Google, Meta, and so on are selling.

Now that these companies have gone full mask off it is more important than ever to create inviting anti-fascist spaces on the web and I am so glad to have found this one! Thanks for keeping it running here. I hope I can contribute in a positive way beyond posting.
