“This is not the time to sort of gripe about all the little things,” said Vice President JD Vance on Thursday about the coming mid-term election season, despite the fact that a recent AP-NORC Center poll from late September found 73% of Americans think the country is on the wrong track.

Once again, I ask why the New York Times & every other media outlet immediately & instinctively reports on the 🇩🇪 AfD as a “far right” or “extremist” party but does not regularly cover the 🇺🇸 Republican Party as such: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

Trump to sign an executive order renaming failure as success, defeat as victory, war as peace, poverty as prosperity and tyranny as democracy. (Probably.)

In the Biden administration, l led the team that developed what was arguably the first White House “AI safety” framework, the AI Bill of Rights. David Robinson, author of this forthright and sobering essay about risk culture at OpenAI and in Silicon Valley was on that team.

It’s weird to see so many higher education leaders beat their chests about “the decline of trust” from the public while refusing to acknowledge the conservative movement organizing to destroy it. Imagine someone stabbing you repeatedly while you complain about not having enough blood to bleed out.

The reason I'm so skeptical of the AI industry's latest breakthroughs is they are operating with infinite money and pretending that doesn't matter. So many things become easier when you have infinite money to throw at a problem. The Infinite Money Trick davekarpf.beehiiv.com/p/the-infini...

Perhaps instilling morality in tech bros would be a better first step... (rather than trying to strip mine morality from "brand name" sources like it was just more ones and zeroes to Hoover up like all the rest of their bots' "knowledge.")

They're not building Skynet but the important point is that they seem to believe they are building Skynet and somehow that doesn't stop them from continuing to attempt to build it.
