HEY

so if you know someone who went to the LA protests today no you don't actually! All of those people have no identity. You've never been to a protest, you've never seen someone at one, and you certainly have never known the names or faces of any individuals associated with the protests.

What's the iNaturalist AI drama...? I hadn't heard about anything until now.

iNaturalist announced a project, funded by a $1.5 million dollar grant from Google, to create a LLM trained on user ID comments to produce generative AI ID tips.

As a user that has voluntarily provided nearly 95k IDs and a lot of them containing uncountable hours of study to provide helpful and accurate information for the community, this disgusts me.

if you feel inclined to tell people “just move to another country” when they talk about issues affecting them in their current country of residence, you should be forced to have to cover every expense that comes with them moving
