@wwu fully support the campaign, but using ChatGPT graphics is super cringe and undermines your messaging

@Profpatsch fair question! the style is rather recognizable, but more importantly it has SynthID watermarks so that's proof

@wwu Is there a simple way, as a former donor to Wikimedia Foundation, to express that I will not donate again until they accept the union? Seems to me that money could talk here. But I don't know who to write to.

@aburka @Profpatsch thanks for flagging. It looks like we used a version of the image that had been run through Canva to add a blur effect. We've replaced this in an edit of the original post.

@wwu @Profpatsch fair enough. I didn't know canva is using genAI for everything now
️ interesting to see what other stylistic changes that it would have made though, like changing the images. Anyway thanks for responding and I don't mean at all to detract from the great work y'all are doing! -

@nosrednayduj @wwu I was thinking along similar lines.

@drwho @nosrednayduj @wwu I know you're looking for leverage for the union, but also, side issue, they have *loads* of money. Last year I switched my wikimedia donations to entities which do not.

@wwu I feel even better about not donating this year.

@drwho @nosrednayduj For clarity, we as WWU (with the infrastructure we tend to funded by donations and our salaries paid by same) are not asking folks to pause donations - please see https://social.wikiworkersunited.org/@wwu/116999094704565373
