Life got so hectic after I published the last issue of JOHNSTONE that I didn’t notice people were unable to download the e-book version of the magazine.
You have run into the problem that is endemic to AI and, I think, is not resolvable. It will only provide information or answers to questions that the creators are capable of thinking of. Since most IT engineers have a different way of thinking than most ordinary people, and since the corporate masters won't spend the money to vet the product, it means the disconnect between what technology can do for humanity and what it actually does to humanity will grow - in the wrong direction. Technology needs to be de-privatized.
I Said it before A I looks cool to a lot of people but it s going to Destroy us, especially it is in the hands of the powers that be, who are only all about themselves and power and control if its not heavily controlled we are Doomed. It has already caused a lot of death destruction and misery and has cost a lot of innocent lives by being used in the middle east conflict
Thank you Ms. Johnstone, glad you were able to speak to a real person and get your account unblocked. I agree, I think AI is rapidly transforming things, and the "Art", images, voices and text it can generate is really eerie and uncanny, in my opinion. A very appropriate title for the e-book, I have to say.
Speaking of perpetual ewar, I've noticed GPS much more glitchy the past couple of weeks, as tensions with Venezuela increase. Wondering if the military is degrading it to give cover to covert operations there

"How can I help you today?"
Get your AI chatbot out of my fucking face? That would be a huge help.
AI customer service? The next plateau in the continuing for-profit enshitification.
Hey! Perpetual war only to be expected, as long as there's money in it (for the super-rich)
You spoke to a human??? How could you tell?

Thank You Caitlin
More proof that AI sucks and is taking away jobs from human beings who can actually do the job right the first time.
Thanks for your great work!

"Airstrip One" (formerly England) was in a perpetual state of war in Orwell's "1984", much like the USA since its inception.
