Waterford excoriating Labor: "Labor does not consult with or listen to the wider population or to Labor constituencies in the poorer half of the community... it is a classical crony government, in many respects worse than the Morrison government, governing for its mates, its donors and itself."

This is an opportunity to fundamentally change politics in Australia.

Dark thread. Since we watched Musk literally push a "protect the Boers" button in real time with Grok, we now know people or companies could theoretically pay their way into putting a thumb on the scale for Grok/Claude/ChatGPT. This is why the AI stans want you to believe it's thinking

Damn I hope Shoebridge in charge of the Greens means they get a stronger return at the next election. It should by any measure.

There's this one business school prof who keeps writing about how AI has basically mastered and rendered irrelevant all of the entrepreneurship lessons he teaches. I think he's right. But I also think that says something *very specific* about the pre-existing nature of his field.

They had to make up “murderous leftists” because, for the Economist, smugly acting like they’re the Sensible People, while pretending that the left and the far right are just as bad as each other, has long been a core part of the magazine’s identity.

Straight back at you - how will voting Labor solve it? At least the Greens have a vision and policy to address it. You know this, you are merely being argumentative. Or are you just a A1 / B1 rusted-on?

I honestly do not understand how you could think supporting Labor will address the climate crisis - but heh, you do you.

Under Labor we have seen wages flat line, the rise of the far right and record war profits from fossil fuels going untaxed. We think these are ‘somewhat concerning’.

Obviously they’ll be better than the party that … checks notes… keeps approving more fossil fuel extraction.

And Labor is doing what to serve the people of Australia again? You know the climate crisis will kill everyone right?

I’m excited to step up as Deputy Leader of the @Greens alongside @DavidShoebridge. My generation has grown up seeing politicians sell out our future for corporate greed: delaying climate action while housing, childcare, and living costs get harder to afford. It has to change.

National Bogong Moth Day would be a worth public holiday every year. Certainly better than having a day off for the Melbourne Cup!

Top Section
• Visuals: A line of small, abstract cartoon figures and moths are marching from left to right on a patch of green grass against a light blue sky.
• The figure on the far left holds a tall pole with a large moth model on top, resembling a parade float.
• One character wears a full moth costume.
• Other characters carry small signs. One sign reads "THANK A MOTH" and another reads "SAY NO TO PORCH LIGHTS."
• A character toward the right holds a green flag that says "BOGONG."
• Text: Speech bubbles at the top read: "Surely bogong moth migration season should have a public holiday and some sort of parade or festival... Bogong Moth day!"
Bottom Section
• Visuals: The background is a solid off-white. In the bottom right corner, a single cartoon moth is holding a smartphone, seemingly reading the text.
• Text: The main caption reads: "Remember - these moths are not an inconvenience they are a blessing. EVERY MOTH IS PRECIOUS. Perhaps they are a sign that all is not lost..."

I am left shaking by the dangerous power held by those who have so casually dismissed the need to consider the consequences of their actions, or rather inactions. The world is not safe because of their choices. It it time to take away their power.

AI models appear to be showing the talent of spirited toddlers and wilfully obtuse law undergrads to ignore the rules that are meant to bound their behaviour. It’s almost as if philosophers, logicians and legal theorists should have been in on the ground floor …

One thing the Australian government could do to show they're serious on AI policy is to pursue the AI companies who stole the entire country's creative output to feed to their slop machine.
