Carn(ey)age. Rolling back a half century of progress in environmental and climate protection. For what? Oh right, profits for the already very fucking rich & some jobs in the extractive sector, while the rest of us are fucked by climate, ecological and democracy’s collapse. Danger: Banker At Work.

This is the type of AI disaster scenario that I ACTUALLY worry about. (1) AI industry oversells the capabilities of its products to score fat government contracts. (2) govt puts the AI in charge of critical shit. (3) AI fucks up, because it has a nonzero error rate. (4) shit, now we’re at war.

"What’s actually happening is not environment versus economy. It’s one economic sector, extraction, being protected and subsidized at the direct expense of several others: agriculture, tourism, fisheries, and renewable energy development that rural municipalities themselves were courting."

Instead of spending at least $50 billion of public money on fueling more climate chaos, Canadians deserve a government that invests in building the green economy of tomorrow – creating good jobs, lowering costs, and protecting our future.

There is a reason that Canada is 'behind on AI'. We don't want it! Rather than trying to sell us on the vague idea of an over-hyped system, give examples of where it might be useful. Is there's a single industry where it does more good than harm? Right now, we need strict regulations. Period.

Every time you take the premier seriously when she parrots Stay Free Alberta's talking points; every time you take Mitch's 300K claim at face value, you are helping to normalize separatism. drjaredwesley.substack.com/p/premier-sm...

you don't fight fascism by welcoming people promoting fascist ideology into your party with open arms. You fight fascism by pushing fascists out of the government. I don't know why this is so hard to understand or agree on.

Winning an election in Alberta always relies on building coalitions. But it is fascinating to me how it is typically assumed that the pipeline-loving demographic of the coalition is bigger than the pipeline-disliking demographic, or that it is even viable or advisable to court that demographic

The thing is that Fiscal Conservatism is largely just an obfuscation layer for bigotry. They get to say they don't *want* to hurt people and excuse harm being done by saying they can't afford to help. The problem is they won't change even when helping costs less, because the harm is the point.

Let's be clear about what happened today. Premier Smith introduced a bill to strip Albertans of Charter rights, denied MLAs the opportunity to debate it and the courts the ability to scrutinize it, and did all of this from her seat on a jet to Saudi Arabia.

51,000 teachers are far more powerful than Danielle Smith and the UCP understand especially given that they have the support of the majority of Albertans. Solidarity is a powerful weapon we can use to put Danielle Smith and the UCP's corrupt regime in their place.

The basic problem with LLM drafting is this: the skills you need to do it correctly are exactly the same skills you need to do it without the LLM. The only way the LLM actually saves any labor is if you skip the needed fact checking and proofreading.

The Alberta Government is framing their abdication of public health measures as fiscal responsibility. It is far cheaper to give someone a vaccine than to keep them on a ventilator. Denying vaccines is one of the most most financially reckless things a government can do.
