GENEVA, Switzerland — On Tuesday, United Nations’ flagship platform for artificial intelligence, The AI for Good Global Summit 2025, kicked off in Geneva. But the commencement of the summit wasn’t without controversy. Hours before the keynote speaker, Abeba Birhane—founder and lead of the TCD AI Accountability Lab (AIAL) and one of Time magazine’s 2023 100 Most Influential People in AI—was set to take the stage, she was asked by organizers to remove some of her slides.

Specifically, the organizers wanted Birhane to “remove anything that mentions ‘Palestine’ ‘Israel’ and replace ‘genocide’ with ‘war crimes‘” and “a slide that explains illegal data torrenting by Meta.”

“In the end, it was either remove everything that names names (big tech particularly) and remove logos or cancel my talk,” Birhane, whose research focuses on algorithmic bias and AI ethics and fairness, wrote in a Bluesky post.

Whelp I guess we now know you can’t beat the TESCREAL cult by showing up to their propaganda summits and trying to do a TED Talk.

the US is an active threat to life on earth so uh… yeah

believe that i’ve seen versions of this attack where the spammer makes a few innocuous non-spam (but not contribution either) posts before going full LLM bot

A more critical weakness is that these accounts only posted obvious spam; they made no effort to build up a plausible persona. Generating plausible human posts is more difficult, but broadly feasible with current LLM technology.

i will have to screenshot next time and see what people think

obviously they could be hijacked accounts and i might just be extremely judgey of your average twitter flight account

whenever anything bad happens anywhere there’s like a similar 67% chance it was manufactured in the US slave colonies

Garda being in Canada means Canadians are also doing the American domestic genocide if anybody wasn’t clear on that

gee that doesn’t sound secure or smart to use at all

It isn’t the case that stage musicians need to be government approved. It is the case that high-profile acts at high profile shows are being censored. There is a huge difference.

*and thanks for bringing your comment back, it was civil and i was happy to clarify

just ain’t the case, this is a thing that happens sometimes at monied levels of capitalist event planning in Imperial Anglophone countries, not in day-to-day life for all the Volk

don’t pretend like western governments have this kind of reach and power, it will cause people trapped in their borders to kill themselves

People post nasty anti-social shit like this on lemmy and for what? and then you get a bunch of other accounts that just pop on to post “oh, and I just love my spotify, I just love to keep giving money to anti-social parasites.” Insufferable.

star upside down?

Anthem launched?

if you contribute to USD economy you are part of the nazi problem too

not what i’m into or where i am trying go but yeah thats a popular approach in the imperial core

“test a new red line?” they did a fucking TV promo for their new concentration camp

this is a propaganda smear piece trying to connect unrelated violence in the neighborhood to queer people celebrating

not the first time OP has reposted trash like this to Fedi, either, they seem to just uncritically post any right wing bullshit that comes across their feed

you are going to be fine! linux has better compat than windows now unless you use a ton of proprietary, locked software. your average linux distro can do steam gaming pretty well, and there are distros like bazzite and garuda and popos that do some or all of the configuration for you (based on your hardware and usage).

who the fuck would want a hero’s name on a nazi ship
