Since I'm on a brand new instance (#littlefedi) it's probably appropriate to do a reintroduction!
I'm a cis-gay man. I work in Canberra, Australia in education as the head of English, Humanities and Languages. I'm interested in the following topics:
#RolePlayingGames
#Education
#ClimateChange
#Permaculture
#Sustainability
#BasicIncome
#OpenSourceSoftware
#LGBTQIA+
#Antifa

If I don't keep my car roadworthy and crash into yours, it hasn't gone "rogue", it's my negligence and I'm responsible. If my dog attacks you, I am liable. There are no rogue AIs, just negligent AI companies. Prosecute them.

Thanks to @iamkonstantin for the alert about it before something happened to my accounts.
It’s fascinating how some corners of the “Libre Software” movement has no problems with and even eagerly align themselves with fascism.
If free software is more important to you than people, you’re doing it wrong.
@lcamtuf@infosec.exchange I thought we agreed not to talk about the torment nexus because it might give them ideas.

@stefano@littleone.littlefedi.social I just want you to know that I love #LittleFedi and I'm eagerly awaiting the next release! 🥳
Can someone please do some emoji reactions to this post, I'd like to see how they appear in #LittleFedi. 😀
The look on 20-year-old-me's face when he finds out that 50-year-old-me is joining the Butlerian Jihad on the side of the Catholic Pope.

Once again Pope Leo XIV has rejected idea of Anthropic that Claude has a soul. He went one step ahead and called to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
For those who don't know Anthropic did privately lobby Vatican advisers to take the idea of AI consciousness (Soul) seriously, but Pope Leo XIV completely rejected the idea, firmly stating that AI does not possess a soul, feelings, or a moral conscience https://www.telegraph.co.uk/business/2026/10/02/anthropic-lobbied-pope-to-argue-ai-conscious-being/
