We use these signs at the museum when we pull a specimen from exhibit for study.

Someone on my staff attached this one to my office door. That’s the kind of people I hire, apparently.

People are shocked to discover they need to fact-check ChatGPT and I'm having the uncomfortable realization that they never fact-checked their uncle's Facebook posts, their friend's medical advice, or literally anything Google's top result told them, and suddenly the last decade makes sense...

Some org (who I will name after this poll ends) published this poll on Twitter (🙄). They used the results to try to validate their POV on AI theft.

Though it won’t provide meaningful research data, I am curious to see how Mastodon responds.

(Please boost so we can get good numbers. 🙌🏻)

Question: should openly licensed content (images, music, research, etc.) be used to train AI systems? (Reply with reasoning if you feel called.)

Speaking of language inclusivity, Mastodon 4.4 is gearing up for release, so now is the time to get those translations up to date: https://crowdin.com/project/mastodon

Everybody probably thinks their cat is the cutest. Rightfully so.

But when our Misti carries her little toy mouse in her mouth and drops it at your feet for you to throw it so she can go catch it – that is honestly one of the cutest things in the whole world!

I can’t describe in words what I feel when she does this, but it’s an explosion of wholesomeness :BlobCat_Love:

What's the earliest founded organization (including countries and public services) to have an "official" account on the fediverse? (I mean the founding date of the org not the account)
