Reading proofs from book & remembering what I wrote in 2015: "I am very concerned about the future of AI. Not because of the risk of rogue machines taking over. But because of the homogeneous, one-dimensional group of men who are currently involved in advancing the technology.”

No prizes for correctly guessing what makes one refugee worthy of safety (and in need of their own state) and another an invader and a threat.

The founding story of Israel that many (including me) were brought up with, is that it would allow Jews facing persecution to seek refuge. How interesting to hear accepting refugees refereed to as "Islamism". I guess there are good refugees and bad refugees.

We see the same trick with climate change. "The answer is not to stop fossil fuels overnight" No-one is asking you to. But we have been asking you to start work on this for DECADES.

Wtaf is this question my university just asked me about my project?
Does the project involve any work that could be interpreted as promoting DEIA, climate change research, or non-compliant to any Presidential Executive Orders?

I remember outrage about Just Stop Oil blocking a street, just in case an ambulance had to drive down it. Not because an ambulance was prevented from doing so, you understand. Just the abstract idea that one might have to.

Once again: if you only bring up antisemitism as a way of defending otherwise indefensible Israeli policy... you don't really care about antisemitism.

nope global emissions (for fossil fuels and land use combined) are changing by approximately zero right now. Still definitely not the right direction - they should be going down - but a big difference from when they were forever increasing

Am not surprised by this - it's lazy thinking tho. There is always "novelty" in every climate situation, you have to find it. The pics of people on loungers with towering wildfire smoke on the horizon got everyone talking. But it's true: audiences gradually become unmoved by certain topics.
