There are so many things we haven’t even considered yet that could be destroyed by enemies of the state, AI, or enemies of the state with AI. I’m sure the next decade will be characterised by taking things back offline and putting them under manual control.

On the weekend, Ukraine struck Russian data centres and, as a result, brought down some (measurable!) 50% of far-right / hate message activity on social media, coming from bot farms. My favourite comment by an actual human being:
andrea.schwtz posts on Instagram:

Applause to Zelensky who just found the cheat code to un-brainwashing the west.

Google searches for health disinformation plunged after Ukrainian strikes on Russian data centers. How much “turbo cancer” & ivermectin nonsense is fueled by Russian bots, and how many Americans have they killed? Bots spread disinformation. Humans search for it. When bots go down, so do searches.

OpenAI said on Friday that it fired three safety researchers for a “breach of trust,” defending the dismissals after the trio accused the company of putting its corporate interests before safety as the reason for removing them.

Trump's whole red dye diesel thing means that diesel that would otherwise end up heating people's homes this winter, will now be used to drive trucks. The supply of diesel that is used for heating, and keeping people from freezing to death, will be diverted toward transportation.
