If AI tech bros are going to steal content for their generative AI, perhaps poisoning the well with mislabeled images, incorrect responses, and injecting instructions in content is well within our rights to fight back.

I'm reading Kij Johnson's collection of speculative fiction, The Privilege of the Happy Ending (https://bookwyrm.social/book/1442804/s/the-privilege-of-the-happy-ending). So far each story is a surprise. Give it a shot if you're looking for something different (and there's quite a bit in this to try!)

@agt @bookstodon I've owned 4 or 5 Kindle e-readers and 2 Kobo e-readers. I prefer Kobo, for it's typographic settings, support for the epub format, and the fact that it doesn't support the Amazon ecosystem.

@owlislost @bookstodon I'm reading Book Reviewing edited by Sylvia E. Kamerman and Chokepoint Capitalism by Rebecca Goblin and Cory Doctorow.

@owlislost @bookstodon Book Reviewing is interesting in part for it's advice for writing book reviews, but also because it offers no advice for the internet (it was published in 1978, so it has a good excuse).

Doctorow recently talked with Adam Conover about Chokepoint Capitalism. If you don't read the book, I recommend watching the interview: https://youtu.be/vluAOGJPPoM
