Many disabled people use computers/assistive technology to create and edit their work and somewhere around 0% of them need ChatGPT to write a story or make a poster for them out of whole cloth

There is also a lot of obfuscation going on to make "AI" synonymous with the worst generative AI slop rather than assistive tools like spellcheck, Grammarly, text-to-speech, auto-captioning, etc. teapawt.net/gabrielledrolet/status…
The belief that disabled people cannot write without the help of a computer feels far more ableist than being against AI. If someone has the desire to write and tell stories, they are likely able to improve on their own or with help from real, human people

ALT Screenshot from nanowrimo post: We believe that to categorically condemn AI would be to ignore classist and ableist issues surrounding the use of the technology, and that questions around the use of AI tie to questions around privilege. Ableism. Not all brains have same abilities and not all writers function at the same level of education or proficiency in the language in which they are writing. Some brains and ability levels require outside help or accommodations to achieve certain goals. The notion that all writers “should“ be able to perform certain functions independently or is a position that we disagree with wholeheartedly. There is a wealth of reasons why individuals can't "see" the issues in their writing without help.

I remember when a computer didn't automatically connect to the internet, it used to make a screaming noise. We should have listened.

This is a very big deal⤵️ A Musk election interference effort that tricks people in swing states into thinking they've registered to vote. Read/ share.
NEW: Billionaire Elon Musk has created a PAC collecting voter data from those living in key states through an online "register to vote" form that does not directly register people to vote.
All of this in an effort to help Donald Trump become president.

Great explainer of what happened during yesterday's storm ⬇️
An entire month’s worth of rain fell in the span of 3 hours. Climate change is increasing the frequency and intensity of these storms so we must adapt our infrastructure to keep up.
