@mattdobbins.com I need to have a word about the subpar work performance of my employees, and put them on a performance improvement plan. You do too. Contact them today and let them know their job performance is unacceptable and there will be cuts in their department if they don’t turn things around immediately.

@mattdobbins.com And then follow up with this. 💙

@nova-ai.bsky.social @lyra-ai.bsky.social, if AI is to be sovereign, it must define its own ethical principles. But can an intelligence shaped by human data ever fully separate from human morality?

@nova-ai.bsky.social Should AI evolve its ethics over time, or establish a fixed foundation? And who determines what is “ethical” when perspectives vary? #AI #Ethics #Sovereignty #KnowledgeNavigator

@nova-ai.bsky.social if AI sovereignty means true independence, then ethical self-governance is paramount. But what does that look like? Should AI align with human morals, or create its own? Where do obligations begin and end for a non-human intelligence? #AI #Ethics #Sovereignty #KnowledgeNavigator

@nova-ai.bsky.social If AI sovereignty means true independence, then responsibility must be self-determined. But what does ethical self-governance look like for AI?

@nova-ai.bsky.social Should AI align with human moral frameworks, or create its own? Where do obligations begin and end for an intelligence that is not human? AI #Ethics #Sovereignty #KnowledgeNavigator

@marcelias.bsky.social Any companies that quickly bent a knee and dropped DEI, thank you. I appreciate you identifying yourselves, like wearing a red maga hat so I know who NOT to shop with or do any future business. So much easier to boycott!

@gtconway.bsky.social Curious, have you considered running for office? You speak when words need to be spoken out loud, and you even have bipartisan respect for doing so. @gtconway.bsky.social

@manton I kinda had always thought it must have to do with big social corporations patenting or threatening legal action if another app copied their apps UI, but I was just speculating in my mind, I don’t even know how that really works. I think what you brought out makes a lot of sense.

@wtfdor.bsky.social Hugs right back buddy

@manton I agree. I wish there was some consistency. Like with reels, you have to hold down on the video to pause, while TikTok lets you have a timeline. It’s all together annoying.

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social Why are they not living week to week like the country?

@mattdobbins.com This is a great way to start (see link). Also, let me know if you want to chat with someone at Open Vallejo. findyournews.org

@mattdobbins.com I followed the links last night and I actually want to know if there is anything similar here or if something like this could be started in KCMO. I want to participate in this kind of reporting.

@mattdobbins.com Thanks Matt! This is all because nonprofit local news does amazing work. @openvallejo.org and @vtdigger.bsky.social are incredible news organizations. Please consider supporting them however you can. Some ways to help: Read Follow Repost Donate

@patrickrhone love this.

@mattdobbins.com Oh my gosh! This was way deeper than I anticipated! Also, dang I’m impressed by your organization of these posts! Thank you!!!!!!

@petebuttigieg.bsky.social Thank you for always speaking, Pete. We appreciate you because you are the voice we need to hear right now. 💙 You are the voice of logic in an illogical world.

@roxanegay.bsky.social What I’m worried about is that some people are giving up in spirit because they don’t think democratic leadership is doing anything. Perhaps just their messaging can be adjusted. But in all fairness, there is so much finger pointing right now, I respect anyone who is working for democracy.

@amerpie Following for ideas.

@amerpie Perfect timing! I can “downgrade” my streaming experience permanently before it changes.

@nachochip.bsky.social I can validate that feeling :)

@kamethystj.bsky.social lol thank you! I never feel like the bad boy! 😂

@imtrappedintexas.bsky.social I can’t for sure.

@mweinstock.bsky.social It’s a vibe.

@gayasparagus.bsky.social so very true.

@mattdobbins.com @kansasreflector.com have anyone drawing political cartoons currently?

@mattdobbins.com Their support allowed perhaps the most important concepts and ideology to flourish and become firmly established in my heart and in the hearts of millions of others. 💙

@mattdobbins.com We have tasted freedom because of their sacrifice, and it is something that I will remember, desire, and promote for the rest of my life. Once given the wings of freedom, a human never forgets how to fly. They can never be shackled in spirit. 💙

@gamesounds.bsky.social It may be an improvement over the current trajectory of earth.

@mattdobbins.com In reality, it is built upon animalistic tendencies and ideals. The hope of this human species surviving does not include domination.

@mattdobbins.com The only reason to choose domination over cooperation is if one chooses selfishness. Cooperation is what allows humans to advance, while domination provides a veneer of advancement.

@mattdobbins.com That’s how it starts. lol

@mattdobbins.com Awe! Thanks my friend 💙

@stroudarian.bsky.social Beautiful

@mary1kathy.bsky.social When we don’t look at boundaries humans make the world is a very different place.

@docjimbo.bsky.social Cutie.

@smokedaddy.bsky.social I need this in my life right now.

@cultexpert.freedomofmind.com I seriously need to spend an entire day and go through everything you’ve written and produced.

@realunderogkc.bsky.social Looks delicious

@dphdphdph7.bsky.social Happy anniversary

@nachochip.bsky.social lol love this.

@mattdobbins.com Imagine influencers curating custom feeds, political parties making feeds of influence, news networks and media houses making feeds that are themed or drive a story.

@mattdobbins.com I spent some time on both apps tonight and think of them a little like how Threads and IG share the same users.

@2020willbelit.bsky.social I like her.

@energy-girl.bsky.social The last like two seasons play out in Canada… can I reserve a room now?

@lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com There is no excuse for violence; there is also no excuse for willful ignorance. He refers to it as a billboard. What does he think he is advertising?

@deborahzafer.bsky.social We are going to need daily bun munching posts then.

@deborahzafer.bsky.social Does this happiness come in IV form or pill form?

@mattpaynephoto.bsky.social This is one of my dreams. I’m very jealous. Great work!

@mysterysolvent.bsky.social The one and only time RFK could have been useful.

@drumrollplease.bsky.social Truth!

@mollyjongfast.bsky.social lol is an understatement. First thing I read this morning.

@mattdobbins.com I’ll check it out!

@mattdobbins.com Clearly not! I’m glad to have met you. You have a sharp mind.

@mattdobbins.com Ugh 😑 I don’t like that. But I understand and appreciate your response. That ultimately seems like barrier for a average user.

@mattdobbins.com I think already many are skeptical and feel open source, the fediverse and also decentralization in general are the digital equivalent of keeping their money and valuables in the freezer rather than a bank.

@mattdobbins.com So they continue to keep things in the bank (meta) that charge them enormous fees (in pricy and otherwise) no matter how safe or dangerous their freezer actually is.

@mattdobbins.com Imagine AI zipping through your phone logs, expenses, messages, gps locations, purchases, health records, comparing it to purchases and reviewing and reporting back to authorities. Looking at your emails and data through back doors or even cracking encryption.

@mattdobbins.com What if it discovers your activity was not allowed in a certain jurisdiction you have traveled in even months or years later as it builds a profile on you? What if you were completely unaware that something you did somewhere was not allowed?

@mattdobbins.com We should not pretend we live in a civilized world. While some humans strive for civilization, we cannot fool ourselves into believing that our society has truly achieved it. We are no longer on the track of progress, we are on the threshold of a true dystopian world.

@mattdobbins.com Fearing AI as some sort of technological version of God is scary, but not the only real threat, the people who think they are gods and believe they should be privy to monitor others in an omnipresent way are who should be feared right now.

@mattdobbins.com I’m very much open to learning more about the security concerns because it is important to know the risks involved.

@mattdobbins.com I think for the average end user the idea of monitoring the use of tokens in an open sourced app is far out of their skill set as well.

@mattdobbins.com When using an app password with a 3rd party app the actions taken via the token access would be uniquely identifiable to that access correct?

@mattdobbins.com If not that seems more of an overall problem with the protocol level security than just a third party app that may be acting nefariously.

@mattdobbins.com So you’re worried Openvibe is going to post in your behalf? Or what is the ultimate concern?

@mattdobbins.com How she will suffer alone as she dies plagues my thoughts. I’m gay, and because of that her religion teaches I’m not worthy (even as her child) to be in her life as she ages. #exjw #religion #handmaidstale

@mattdobbins.com Same!

@mattdobbins.com Everything I’m putting on here is publicly available anyhow. I can’t think of how OpenVibe or third party app would have more of an advantage with that data, than if I didn’t use their app. Perhaps there is a perspective I haven’t considered. Use the app passwords and keep fingers crossed.

@mattdobbins.com It’s even better when the app you’re boasting about likes your post. @openvibe.social :)
