Many people do not understand what is happening with my website or the choices I make, pigeonholing me as a poet or a philosopher who uses "flowery" language. Well, "it is nice to be a flower," because it is so "uncommitted"—one only has to "look the part." To be honest, this is only "important" for the algorithm if one's only concern is a perfectly straight line of eyeliner. That is a fine perspective for some, but not for me.
I decidedly prefer to be a "root" that is firmly planted in the earth. Those who know me well know what I stand for: art reviews for my fellow artists, YouTube videos, catalogs (which I funded and developed myself), as well as their "incisive, philosophical" speeches at exhibitions and beyond. They say speech is silver and silence is gold—it seems women choose "gold" all too often. Yet "silver" is more noble in its simplicity.
So, I tried very hard to be the "standard." My eyeliner is indeed perfect sometimes; I learned to be silent and to work for my fellow artists, settling for the "bones thrown from the table." This is the discipline that created the "standard." And suddenly, an "Italian from Italy" appears and wants to play me like an instrument. Why? Because tools like the Google browser allow such people to walk into someone else's home "with dirty boots" and leave a "septic tank" in their well-tended garden. All done so "politely," in white gloves. It is like a trace written in lemon juice on old manuscripts—it vanishes before you can even read it.
The problem is that "roots"—unlike flowers—absorb knowledge, analyze facts, and draw conclusions. This is something beyond the "standard" of a flower. The "standard" is to sit and "smile foolishly at a bad game" while someone next to you dances like a moth around a flame. Light remains light and does not change its nature, but it is the moth that is "maddened." And as life shows, the light consumes the moth, not the other way around.
To summarize briefly and without "poetry" for those who prefer bot-speak, algorithms, or coaching:
On Pinterest, I saw shocking graphics desecrating holy places, insulting people and religion. I brought this to the attention of several people, but I was told: "don't get involved—it's better to pretend we don't see it." I reacted. Some of the graphics were partially "hidden" from me, while remaining visible to others. Someone gained access to my account. My oil paintings of pumpkins and apples were flagged as "pornography." I received warnings from Pinterest. A stalemate—I left with my honor intact. Throughout this time, I was simultaneously receiving various harassing messages.
I returned to Pinterest, but the situation repeated itself immediately upon making a report. I didn't realize this was a continuation of the same story. I was informed that Pinterest was not displaying my profile. Google, instead of showing my account, provided the Pinterest homepage—unlike with other people's accounts. No one knew the cause. Under the pressure of further attacks on my work, I decided to close the account. In the meantime, I received a great deal of harassing correspondence. I was also alerted to "strange content" generated by Google AI, which produced personal information I had never shared online. It created data based on "associations" drawn from unrelated sources, false data, fake quotes attributed to me in books, and false theories of mine, pointing to real references that contained no such information.
This is defamation, and Google is responsible for it. How reckless or mad must one be to give society an unverified "tool" like AI during a testing phase, using data misappropriated from people who never gave their consent? Many questions arise: How? Who? Why? In what way? Everyone around me is terrified because what they read can impact my life—it can block my access to education, work, financial transactions, or even lead to physical aggression in the current geopolitical climate.
This has been euphemistically termed "AI Hallucinations." In everyday life, it is called defamation. If I were to write, for example, "If Mark Zuckerberg enters your organization, he will probably become its ideological center," Mark Zuckerberg would sue me for defamation before the ink could dry. Google AI does the "dirty work," spreading hate speech that no human would touch, and as a bonus, Google AI cannot be sued because it is "just an AI hallucination."
Furthermore, it turns out that humans can attempt to influence the algorithm. Why is this dangerous? Because humanity is currently at a very low moral and ethical level. Giving such people access to AI is like putting a gun in everyone's hands to test if someone dies when a bullet pierces them. I have been testing various types of AI for a long time; many are extremely useful, but they are still just "tools." We must keep in mind that just as fire can be used for light and warmth, it can also be used to burn something or someone. It all depends on whose hands hold the matches. A lack of responsibility and self-criticism is the plague of our time.
AI has no "feelings," as it always repeats, but humans are full of emotions and can use AI to give them vent. You can see several such AI "hallucinations" about me below, which have been reported as defamation to the proper legal authorities. These things must be spoken about so that people realize AI is not just a toy that adults play with to show how creative they are. Take away the "tool," and they will produce nothing. The images they generate today had to be trained on countless models; thus, it is not innovation but the theft of artists' work used without their consent. Someone generates an image that is the resource of creative and intellectual labor, but the one who presses the button signs their own name and posts it, looking for praise.
In conclusion: in my view, this matter began with my protest on Pinterest. I have always been a neutral person and never spoke on any subject to maintain my neutrality as a creator and my credibility. However, there are obvious things, like the defense of God, Holy Places, and people. Every honest person has a duty toward the brotherhood of humanity to do this. I understand those who are silent out of fear. Fear is a natural feeling, but one cannot lock oneself inside it. If we do, we become truly defenseless, endangered, and complicit. Let us reject "gold" and take "silver." The person or persons who started this story counted on my silence because "women always stay silent." Fear and shame are weapons that effectively gag the mouth. There is no shame if there is no guilt; paradoxically, fear vanishes when we step out of our comfort zone and begin to speak, calling evil things evil and good things good. There is a motto that no one can make us feel "inferior" except ourselves.
I am publishing this content because I have nothing to hide that could shame me. If our guardian is God and not men, then we are already free. My stalkers thought I would not risk my creative website for my values and ideals—they were wrong. And if someone, for example, the "Italian from Italy," uses the phrase "political radicalism," he should first familiarize himself with its definition. The fact that he is "self-taught" does not exempt him from the obligation to verify the words he uses. Otherwise, it results in "algorithmic" gibberish. If anyone thinks that the whole provocation at Google will stop me from painting the Al-Aqsa Mosque, they are mistaken. I am currently finishing another painting and working on a book on this subject. As an artist, I have the right to express myself creatively; I will ask neither the "Italian from Italy" nor a hairdresser for permission to paint.
P.S.
Italian
from Italy, read the text with understanding. It mentions "lion-like
courage"—this phrase does not refer to the Pope's name! A
person with "lion-like courage" is someone who embodies the
highest virtues: majesty, heroism, and chivalry.
