Quote from Mara Recklies - Philosopher, reposted by @the.thing.magazine on Instagram: "So imagine a design brief for creating a fascist infrastructure. That would require highly skilled, well-trained designers asking themselves, 'What would this infrastructure need to look like to work well within a fascist system?'. They wouldn't ask, 'Why are we building this?' or 'Should we be doing this at all?' They would focus entirely on how to execute the task as efficiently as possible. And that's exactly the problem."
AI is not “just a tool” because nothing is “just a tool.” All tools have embedded logic that guides you away from certain courses of action and towards others that its designers have chosen as more preferable. Tools and systems construct us as subjects. The logic embedded within AI is the logic of surveillance, and so AI tools construct us as subjects of surveillance, with an impoverished sense of our relationship to our software. They normalize handing over privileged information and intellectual property without a second thought and try to make recording every screen and click of your PC a default that you have to actively opt out of.
The current push for generative A1 is deeply problematic in many ways. In this article I want to focus on the very real environmental damage caused not so much by the technology itself as by the hype surrounding it. In short: - The hype creates an expectation of huge growth in demand for AI. Data centre companies have to start building capacity before demand is realised, even never materialises. As a result, data centre capacity is being built up right now at an unprecedented scale. - This requires electricity generators to provision capacity for those future data centres, even if they would never be used. - Without strong growth in demand, electricity generators would phase out fossil fuel generation because generating electricity from renewable sources is more cost-effective. Because of the AI hype, they are no longer phasing out fossil fuel generation as they want to maximise generation capacity to maximise future profits. New fossil fuel powered electricity plants are being developed as a result and existing ones are kept open for longer
Split screen image: On the first half: Screenshot of a YouTube video titled "The Ghost of Herzl in the New York Times — Eli Valley, Museum of Degenerates Presentation" showing NYT boardroom decorated with a photo of Theodore Herzl looking at the Rhine river On the other half: screenshot from the site newyorkwarcrimes.com, featuring three notable people from the NYT with genocidial ties. Isabel Kershner has cited her husband's Zionist think tank at least 100 times since starting at the Times in 2007. Both her sons have served in the Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF). Meredith Kopit Levien was still serving on the advisory council of the B'nai B'rith Youth Organization, whose goal is tc foster support for Zionism among Jewish youth, when she became the CEO of The New York Times Company in 2020. Joe Kahn, whose father served on the board of Zionist media watchdog CAMERA, ordered a "racially motivated witch hunt" of his own staffers to stanch leaks about pro- Israel bias in the newsroom.

First half of the image reads: Israel pays Google $45 million to help justify a genocide. So here they are, ignoring the 680.000 people killed under their hands to talk about breathing lives into pixels. The second half of the image is a tweet by @GoogleDesign: "Breathing life into pixels: It's a design challenge we're passionate about! Join us as we explore how to make digital experiences feel more human, expressive, and engaging."
tweet praising the website selling trump card. "wow the new trumpcard.gov site is actually really nice 🤯 built with the most modern tech stack of any .gov site out there @nextjs @tailwindcss @motiondotdev"
Image that reads: Abstract shapes can help people express themselves. When researching for M3 Expressive with Israeli characteristics, we have conducted several workshops, bringing to the table various sociologues, stakeholders along with designers around the question: who is "people"? Are Palestinians... people? Redefining "people" is one of our most revolutionizing and exciting work that we designers get to contribute. Our first tangible result? Removal of several barbarian symbols, such as any half-circle or full-circle shapes that resembles a watermelon.

Video showcasing a Windows monitor where a mouse hovers above the mail app, but it pops up Bi Bi's head instead which erupts into a watermelon flag and a text that says free watermelon. The title of the video is "redefining productivity: is a reel for Windows. The description is: our product journey to redefine Outlook, ah nope, is a reel for Windows through blocking emails containing the words "Watermelon", "Gha da", "g3n0 syde", "ah part eid", and "ai oh eff off azure"
Animation that reads: There's a better way for a group of folks who want to point guns at children. Just trust us. There's a better way. At Microsoft, we can support an inclusive genocide. Now, this support has been useful for Israel, and we cooked up some exciting stuff along the way, like, our AI can target and rival Palestine's brightest minds. Doctors, professors, and journalists are all quickly eliminated. Our cloud has millions of intercepted phone calls helping Israel ensure more diversity in who gets to be killed. Oh are there people actually protesting us? Blablabla we cannot hear you. SHUT UP STOP CARING ABOUT THE GENOCIDE!

Edited Google ad for some weird AI stuff that reads: meet your new designer, writer, producer, genocide enabler. A prompt shows up: help me... wipe Gaza off the earth. The ad also show that you can drag a PowerPoint about how Google loves Zionism into a sales training video.
Poster, print on some kind of creamed-color paper, roughly 60 cm by 85 cm. Encased in a rectangle box, a big, bold text that reads "Palestine" stands at the bottom of it. A big thumbs up in cartoon style breaks the top of that box, with the thumb itself featuring a palestinian face wearing the keffiyeh
Text that reads: What role can emotional design play in genocides? Can snappy animations delight Palestinians struggling to contact their loved ones? Can immersive 3D visualisations bring the evacuation map experience to the next level for families being displaced? Can bolder and more expressive typography helps IOF terrorists balance their relationship with technology before running a bulldozer over hundreds of bodies?
Flag of Palestine: three stripes, from top to bottom: black, white and green. One red chevron at the left

The GIF starts with a low fidelity mockup of Figma app. The designer hides the UI by using the shortcut Ctrl+/, then they use Alt+/ to launch a small text field with a coding icon at the beginning. A rectangle is already selected, so the designer types in "rad 40 tl br" to control its corner radius: 40px top left bottom right. Next the designer makes a circle and move it around, using just code, no mouse involved. This post goes in the collection #jackedmix
