    I was inspired by @mntmn 's "using AI wastes a lot of energy" email signature idea.

    So I just combined the OpenMoji for "prohibited" with the OpenMoji for "sparkle" and it makes a pretty convincing "no AI" sign. I put it up on Codeberg if you want it.

    Not the most intuitive but i like the idea.

    Probably a combination of 🤖 🚫 and 🤮 would be easier to get he impression across.

      @mntmn @vkc my first thought there was "No Subaru vehicles beyond this point". They have more sparkles though!

        @vkc @mntmn As someone who has worked with people who would literally just send cryptic one-liner emails, I'd still completely prefer that to smarmy, overly-verbose slop text!

        @jaredwhite And if you get a short, cryptic email that makes no sense, at least you *know* that it makes no sense and can act accordingly. As opposed to something where a LLM has taken the same nonsensical input and extruded something that *appears* to make sense but which might very well not be at all what the person who sent it intended! (Or it might be. It's just impossible to know.)

          @vkc @yetzt I've only just now realized that the sparkles character is NOT THE SAME as the fireworks character. 🤦‍♂️

          @vkc I think this is a great idea and your new emoji fits perfectly!

            Yes, I'm pretty happy with how this turned out. Definitely a throwback to the "please don't print this email" days and makes a tiny statement about who I am as a person.

            Plus it encourages everyday folks who want to resist so-called AI but don't know how to get started.

            Thank you so much for the idea @mntmn !

            @vkc @mntmn I was just thinking about how to word a signature like this a few minutes ago. #noSlop will be the problem of this year in corporate environments as all colleagues go through their individual AI learning processes.

                @vkc @mntmn I think this is great. It's inviting instead of scolding. And to your point, I agree, just send me the bullet points.

                      I think the real challenge will be getting an AI to make a better "no AI" symbol.

                              @daltux @vkc @mntmn I think the sparkles one is better because AI has the initials inverted in other languages (IA) but the sparkles symbol is language-free

                                    @vkc @mntmn Well, I'm a prophane and I believe that in time it's going to get that meaning intended. But, at first sight, It made me think about stars, happiness, and dreams forbidden. Just my thought.

                                      I was inspired by @mntmn 's "using AI wastes a lot of energy" email signature idea.

                                      So I just combined the OpenMoji for "prohibited" with the OpenMoji for "sparkle" and it makes a pretty convincing "no AI" sign. I put it up on Codeberg if you want it.

                                      @vkc @mntmn are you open for that being a Mastodon emoji?
                                      (I can do it if you want, PNG or GIF, under 50k)

                                        it really bums me out that companies claimed ✨ as the signifier for "AI" because i've always enjoyed the ✨whimsy✨ of the sparkles emoji

                                        @kett @vkc @mntmn let's don't let them take this away from us! Nobody owns the sparkle emoji.
