Hey it’s the assistive tech discussion around pervert glasses. Sure they can be used for helping people with a variety of differing needs. But they are primarily going to be used for feeding the appetites of perverts (sexual or technological).

His wet footprints, fresh out of the nearest toilet… What a visionary.

Totally agreed, I cut myself off before the diatribe became a screed, but if I had kept going I would have touched on that point. You did it a lot more succinctly than I would have. Thank you.

Looks like anything calling for Andy Yen to go has disappeared. Wonder how far they are going to go with this?

I realised I had bitten off far more than I could chew so I dragged in the slop bots. I could have opened the project up to other contributors and or stepped back or even away entirely and let the project continue but it made more sense for me to let big tech splooge all over it.

Maybe I am being unfair, but fuck that so sick of this slop code shit ruining everything because people are too fucking lazy to write their own code, too proud to get help, and too dumb to utilise the appropriate free software license.

And before one of the AI fucking collaborators chimes in “erghh local models” its all still built on theft of the community commons, and once the AI industry shits itself to death and the VC funding dries up development will stagnate, who is going to pay out the mega dollars to train new models, so your local models will see some minor updates but that’s it, I’d be really careful about lobotomizing yourself because an LLM can think for you.

Is there some suggestion that Apple is going to do ID attestation or are they just harvesting ID? Either way the whole thing is slimy. They are a private company choosing to exceed their legal requirements, does anyone think this is for the good of their customers?
