The worst thing about podcasts is the number of times one has to hear the word “podcast.”

Well isn’t this the pot calling the kettle black… imagine that, someone stole from the folks that stole everything from everyone else.

News of DeepSeek training on OpenAI is exciting because we’ll now get to see how bad AI is when it runs out of human art to steal and has to resort to garbage in garbage out “learning” (which was always the inevitable ceiling, cool that we got there this fast?)

This isn’t the first time Trump changed something from “Mexico” to “America.” Remember who he said would pay for the wall?

Pam Hemphill, a J6er who has since expressed serious regret for what she did, says she will not accept a pardon from President Trump. “I committed a crime.”

“Amazon, Microsoft, Google and Meta are each investing an eye-watering average $30 billion to $60 billion in AI per year.” Imagine all of the art that could be made with $180 billion dollars a year… but sure. Film budgets are too high and film crews are too expensive. www.cnbc.com/2024/10/16/g...

Today, defending Musk, Trump claimed he "always" has supported H1B Visas. But on June 22, 2020, Trump issued an executive action suspending H1B Visas because he said the program was taking jobs from American workers trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/presidential...

Proclamation Suspending Entry of Aliens Who Present a Risk to the U.S. Labor Market Following the Coronavirus Outbreak

President-elect Trump told The Post Saturday he supports immigration visas for highly skilled workers, appearing to side with Elon Musk in the roiling intra-MAGA debate on the issue.

“I’ve always liked the visas, I have always been in favor of the visas. That’s why we have them,” Trump said by phone, referring to the H-1B program, which permits companies to hire foreign workers in specialty occupations.

It’s funny how the GenAI stans keep lecturing us about artists being gatekeepers but in the next sentence talk about how THEY are “learning AI” to make sure they have the few jobs that will be left once artists are replaced. GenAI replaces artists with actual gatekeepers.

The ONLY reason Trump picked Marco Rubio to be Secretary of State was so his daughter-in-law Lara Trump could be appointed to that Senate seat without being elected. She will run the Senate, essentially.

This kind of technological “solution” is competing against us for resources. To what end? So we can make art without artists? Only a soulless technophile would envision such a dystopia. AI is a solution in search of a problem.

Trump is the most overtly corrupt politician probably ever in American history and he's treated like a populist. It's just so so depressing. He gets paid by domestic and foreign entities through his businesses and it just doesn't even register as a scandal

This is genuinely great from Gessen if only because it takes something pretty basic about anti-trans politics (it's part of a broader reproductive regime akin to the eugenics of fascist cults) and explains it to an audience still convinced this has anything to do with fairness in women's sports

“Expose yourself to conservative ideas.” Those ideas: - Rape is fine. - Vaccines don’t work. - Lying is good. - Science is wrong. - Democracy is bad. - Women should be powerless. - America is simultaneously the most perfect amazing country ever and a broken hellscape of crime and disorder.
