@misty "I didn't get rich by writing a lot of checks" says this guy as his goons smash up all your shit

This “reverse acqui-hire” has become very common with AI companies in the US, because companies currently believe it’s a way to effectively acquire a company without dealing with antitrust. It gets you the important employees and a license to their tech without *technically* acquiring the company.

I keep seeing people describe the character.ai bankruptcy as the first AI bubble domino, so I’m glad to see some reporting on what’s *actually* going on here: https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2026/10/disney-found-a-way-to-buy-character-ai-without-buying-its-lawsuits/

This is a way for Disney to buy the company without really buying the company, so they can avoid antitrust. It also gets them out of inheriting the active lawsuits. Character.ai has been through this once already - what’s left of the company is kind of a shell after Google hired key employees & licensed their tech.

@jonty I see the Nod brotherhood is up to something again

Das Zentrum für Interdisziplinäre Frauen- und Geschlechterforschung der TU Berlin (@zifg_tu) hat eine feine Ringvorlesung mit Veranstaltungen rund um Technikkritik und sog. "KI" auf die Beine gestellt (u.a. auch mit @alineblankertz und mir zu unserem Buch "Digitale Solidarität").

Schaut mal rein. Ich bin auf jeden Fall auch zur Doku "Ghost In The Machine" da und hoffe, es zu @tante zu schaffen 👇

Important news for problematic lesbians and problematic lesbian allies

I know we were experimenting trying to find the most sensible one. Not sure which one it is now. We definitely used deepl (it's a service, I don't know what they use), qwen and claude sonnet. One of those

I am working on the integration of the dedicated Pixelfed API.
I started with DMs and groups. I am reworking the old chat conversation view, which is well suited for it. This work will benefit everyone.
My goal is to cover all Pixelfed endpoints.
#Fedilab will support 4 dedicated APIs: #Mastodon, #PeerTube, #Misskey and #Pixelfed.

A good thing would be to make uber drivers aware that they're gonna be essentially unemployed in 1-1.5 years if Ontario gets their way. What do they hate more - bikes, or unemployment?
