Hayao Miyazaki on AI
EDIT: I took this from Bluesky without checking the full context (didnβt really think I needed to because it seemed like something Miyazaki would say. Still I should have) since then it has come to my attention that he was specifically talking about ableism here and not directly about AI.
Iβm attaching the whole excerpt here:
Help me so I can help my brother and his family.β€οΈ
This disease has affected my eyesight. I can't walk on my feet because of the nerves. I hope everyone stands with me to get treatment outside Gaza. ππ
This is my picture before the war on the Gaza Strip. I was living in peace. I was a person who loved life. I was able to provide my children with a happy life. But now, unfortunately, I will not be able to do anything because of the illness and the loss of walking. Most of the time, I lose my sight. I hope that everyone who saw my story will participate and donate even $10 to save our lives.β€οΈπ
I lost my mom and dad, I lost 4 of my sisters, and my older brother and I are left. I am the youngest, Omar. I hope everyone stands with us. This war has destroyed us. I lost my sisters.ππ
My children Aseel, Ahmed, Aya and Omar. I wish everyone could share our lives.
But unfortunately, our house was destroyed in this war and we are now living in tents,
Now we live in tents, each person in my family is in a different area Life is hard now Life is not easy
we are no longer able to provide the bare necessities of life
We suffer a lot in our life here, no water, no healthy food, everything here needs money, and we do not have enough money to provide medicine and life requirements during the Gaza war, we need your help, support and donations so that we can overcome these difficulties and live as much as I can, me and my family, in peace
My family's future has been completely destroyed and I can no longer live in Gaza. I want to leave it with my children, so I need $5,000 per person.
I hope that everyone who watches my story will help me get out of Gaza and find treatment and a better life for my children.
I'm asking for help and,I hope you help me and donate to me to save my life from death
Donate, even for $10
I wish you could donate even $10, it would save my life β€οΈπ

Is it not completely insane and mind blowing that a few days ago just marked a solid year of this and we still get lukewarm headlines by mainstream media about how Israel is now ACCUSED of attacking Gaza hospitals (w no actual penalties for it)β¦. Think pieces by the New York Times that do their absolute best to tiptoe around the subject, if not outright fail to address itβ¦β¦.. and this is most insulting of all but I even saw more than one headline βhonoring the memoryβ of the IOF soldiers who died in a recent attackβ¦β¦ and this all sounds made up but itβs not. It truly is all you see when you look up the news. Truly nothing has changed

The war will end, the leaders will shake hands, and that old woman will remain waiting for her martyred son, that girl will wait for her beloved husband, and those children will wait for their heroic father. I do not know who sold out the homeland, but I have seen who paid the price.ππ
