Lloyd is transfem and genderfluid but also he doesn't know and doesn't care that much. Like he didn't even think about it too hard before Dragons Rising but then his little teenage students asked for his pronouns and he just... hesitated for a second. Like "huh. I guess I'm not sure."
Anyway I will die on this hill.

The rapid improvement of AI technology happening right now in tandem with Israel's genocidal actions in Gaza can't be a coincidence, right? For months. Israel has been trying to use any form of propaganda they can to justify the murder of 30,000 Palestinian civilians. They have repeatedly tried to gaslight us by using the American government and media as their own propaganda tools. The zionists have them repeat the claimsthat they are bombing hospitals because Hamas bases are underneath them, or that they are trying to get the hostages back, or that the entire strip has been "taken over" by Hamas. But it hasn't been working. Every lie they have been using in their propaganda efforts has been disproven by the Palestinian people living through the genocide, broadcasting the slaughter of their people by the Israeli state that wants to steal the small bit of land they have left. And more ordinary people than ever have been rising up to protest their actions and call for Israel to pay for their crimes. Especially in places like the US, where Israel expects the citizens to eat up their propaganda through the vast machine supporting it.
But it's not enough anymore
And all of a sudden AI is everywhere. The technology has been around for a couple of years, but since the siege of Gaza began, there's been a massive push by American companies to perfect it. So many commercials lately have bragged about how companies like Amazon, Google, and Apple use it to perfect their products, and companies like Disney and Warner Bros seem determined to replace most of their productions with AI.
And now Microsoft is releasing Sora, advertising how it can make images so realistic that you'll no longer be able to talk what's real and what's fake. Who does that serve? Even for the few wealthier individuals able to pay for it and access it around the world, not many will do more than play around with it for a little while before getting bored with it.
But Israel can use it. And the United States government and media machine can use it. So now, if Israel wanted to "prove" battalions of Hamas soldiers were roaming the west bank in order to justify a full ethnic cleanse of the rest of Palestine, they could easily plug that prompt into Sora and give the resulting images to CNN, Fox, and MSNBC. And anyone who hasn't learned the history of the Palestinian people and Hamas would only see Israel defending themselves from "terrorists." And the truth would be that much harder to access for ordinary people on social media
Of course, AI wouldn't only be used for Israel's propaganda, but for any other propaganda people in power with to use. Fox News wants to "prove" a city is on fire after a large BLM protest? Just plug in "Downtown San Francisco on Fire and turned to rubble." Transphobes want to "prove" that trans women are raping cis women in public bathrooms? Just plug it into Sora. Apple wants to "prove" that they have safe, slave free, child free cobalt mines in The Congo that's frequently audited? They can make a video of it with whatever they put out to compete with Sora.
But the US has invested so much time and money into the colonial zionist ethnic cleansing of Palestine that they probably want the technology that allows them to "prove" as many of Israel's claims as they can. Because that is what will allow The US and capitalists around the world bent on white supremacy to keep the power they currently hold without the threat of the masses rising up against them. And that is why AI fucking terrifies me.
