Literacy advocate LeVar Burton served as the official honorary chair for Banned Books Week will be fascinated to know that he's a holodeck product.
Now. What have you contributed apart from criticism?

"But you don't understand! If I don't use the orphan crushing machine, the people who want to destroy books* will win!"*The people who profit off of the orphan crushing machine
You're being literally less than helpful. Fuck off.

How about you produce an image for the cause?
Why do you need a fake image of that person holding up the text in the first place?
Just post the text!

@calmeilles @xinit "The people who fed all the books into the digester and then burned them to sacrifice to Moloch were never the good guys."

@Tudsamfa
I was surprised the image had alt text, and that it was just the text he fed into an LLM in the first place.

@calmeilles
... And you have used his likeness without consent along with how many others to squirt out some Gen AI nonsense. Then spend way more effort with excuses and blame than just having done it right in the first place. -

@calmeilles @xinit you mean the LeVar Burton playing the main character in a short arc in TNG S03/04 showing how fucking creepy it was to create a holodeck character after a real person without their consent? that LeVar Burton?

@0x00string @calmeilles @xinit comrades. Theory and praxis are both important. Deviance from good praxis isnt a punishment its something we come together to recognize and eschew together.
The theory here is good, its execution needs work. Help to deliver better art by empowering a future artist, not denigrating an idea. -

Future artist? I don't think that's what's happening here. -

@noodlejetski
Well, in an established series, it's not like actors really get to choose the scripts and how their character behaves in them (barring they're also directing, etc). I'm not going to necessarily fault the actor for that cringey episode.

Future artist? I don't think that's what's happening here.@xinit @0x00string @calmeilles Its passion and conviction that have sadly been captured by commerce and capitalism. I don't deign to assume what art could be, but I am keenly aware of when its spark has been hijacked by tech bro nonsense. -

@calmeilles@xinit @calmeilles I'm not "faulting" an actor for illustrating a valid point about consent, a concept that AI-pilled folks don't seem to be able to grasp

@calmeilles true, true…

@noodlejetski
Ah, I read that differently. Thanks for the clarification.
@calmeilles -
@calmeilles I'm so fucking tired of people who lack the basic human decency to recognize that Ai and everything made by it is inherently evil. Quit your bullshit. You coulda just posted crudely drawn stick figures and we'd have applauded you.
