Europe, the AI Continent.

@EUCommission Read. The. Room.

A *lot* of the people on Mastodon are creators who have had their intellectual property stolen to feed the generative AI models, with at least one of the billionaires involved openly admitting/bragging that his business model would not be profitable if they had to pay fair royalties for that intellectual property.

A lot of people on Mastodon are deeply concerned about the environmental damage, AI hallucinations, theft of personal/corporate data, and sundry other issues.

There are forms of analytical AI that are useful (e.g. analysis of medical images) and do not involve any of the above. You do not appear to be referring to such analytical models.

Make Europe a science continent instead!
AI as in "we scan you and all your data without you being able to prevent this" is horrible, nobody wants that.
AI as a mathematical algorithm can be helpful in lots of applications - as any other algorithm. But this doesn't need pushing AI methods, just a solid funding of science! Scientists will use the method with the best results for their applications!

No to AI slop, surveillance & abuse, yes to a right to privacy & digital security!

@EUCommission if you keep pushing that, probably only AI will live on this continent in 30years.

@EUCommission, make really REALLY sure that it is safe! AI is an extinction level risk! Alignment is required! Don't make it more intelligent than it needs to be. Beware giving it guns.

No, please, don't make the bubble bigger

[battlegarden@fosstodon.org]

@EUCommission It's an odd contrast between the usual positivity on this account and this dystopian announcement.

[d4v@mastodon.social]

@EUCommission FUCK AI people are already sick and tired of it

[faraiwe@mstdn.social]

@EUCommission holy shitballs, that is THE absolutest worst thing this account ever posted.

[bortzmeyer@mastodon.gougere.fr]

@fnrd
@EUCommission There is a "questions and answers" section on the site. It explains what is an AI factory (but not the AI omnibus). Yes, it is more communication than information but it's a start.

@EUCommission

> The AI Omnibus is cutting costs for business.

Um. Have you actually SEEN how much this costs?

[kennergf@mas.to]

@EUCommission no thanks

[petrikas@mastodon.art]

@EUCommission I vote

[darkpixel@infosec.exchange]

@EUCommission Maybe the real scam was the enemies we made along the way?

[steelman@mstdn.io]

@EUCommission nobody's asked

[darwinwoodka@mastodon.social]

@EUCommission

NO. Stop this stupidity.
