@kin Thanks Kin for the great write-up. I actually share a lot of your concerns. I think that I love the “magic” of technology when it is useful (of course), understandable and when I can explain it. Referring to the giants shoulders we build new things upon is a key thing in this process - and the lack of attribution in AI ruins my confidence in it. I hope some great story tellers will stand! 😉

"For millions of students passing through North Carolina’s public schools, learning from textbooks that never mentioned the deadly 1898 coup d’etat in their state, it was as though that event never happened. 'I took several courses on North Carolina history throughout my middle school and high school career,' Dr. Crystal Sanders, today a history professor at Emory University, told American Experience."

Teen Vogue continues to lead the revolution and people who devalue media aimed at teenage girls and young women at a time when their bodily autonomy is under attack can fuck off.

I am just glad that all that redlining stuff happened in the past and was done by our ancestors - we aren't responsible. https://www.consumerfinance.gov/about-us/newsroom/cfpb-takes-action-to-address-townstone-financials-unlawful-redlining/
