Sure, we can do this. Or we can actually do something truly useful for the common good and ban any #socialmedia platform that relies on mass #surveillance to serve targeted #ads no matter the age. In other words, we must have proper social media instead of #advertising companies masked as social media.

Living Forever (Sort Of): AI Clones, Digital Ghosts, and the Problem with Perfection

Bruce Y. Lee and I met once again in our favorite make-believe bar to explore what might be one of the most unsettling — and fascinating — questions of our time: What happens when your AI clone outlives you?

In this episode, Bruce Y. Lee and I explore digital immortality, algorithmic relationships, and what makes a person… well, a person. Star Trek, deepfakes, AI therapists, and dead celebrities all make an appearance. Is it still you if your clone outlives you?

Let’s discuss!

– Star Trek ethics and uncanny valleys

– ChatGPT friendships that feel a little too real

– What it means to build a digital legacy you never signed off on

– And whether a recreated version of “you” is still… you

From #holograms to memory simulations, #socialengineering to emotional #algorithms, we’re not here to decide what’s right or wrong — just to ask: where does reality end, and where does the replica begin?

Digital ID is a shitty idea. ID cards were a shitty idea under Tony Blair, but this is even shittier. And more sinister.

"In a stunning reversal, the European Commission is once again poised to undermine the privacy of citizens across Europe in the ongoing eIDAS reform process. After promising to close a dangerous loophole in the eIDAS implementing acts, the Commission has yielded to powerful industry lobbyists and reintroduced an optional regime for “relying party registration certificates.” This dramatic backslide threatens the core principle of the European Digital Identity (EUDI) Wallet project: namely, giving users across the EU secure digital identities under reliable and uniform protections."

Foul-Spiel der Europäischen Kommission!

Statt das Vertrauen in die kommende European Digital Identity Wallet zu stärken, soll mit neuen Regeln der Daten- und Trackingschutz ausgehebelt und die pseudonyme Nutzung quasi unmöglich gemacht werden.

Wenn jedoch bei der #EUDI-Wallet nicht der Schutz der Nutzenden gewährleistet wird, sondern sogar verdeckt deren Überwachung und Kontrolle organisiert wird, muss vor der Nutzung gewarnt werden!

Było ostatnio o zaawansowanym browser/device fingerprinting. Ale STYLOMETRIA to cichy snajper – Twój pisarski „unikalny hash” zdradzi Cię nawet, gdy ogarniesz cały soft. Długość zdań, składnia, słowa-klucze, błędy, sposób poruszania się myszką – to cyfrowe DNA. Marzy się mobilna apka z lokalnym LLM-em, która robi realtime parafrazę, miesza rejestry, łamie rytm i tworzy styl „wszyscy i nikt”. Piszesz Ty, a wyglądasz jak wszyscy. #PrivacyMatters #DigitalIdentity #Prywatność #CyberSecurity
