Unbelievable. Except totally believable. We utterly fail at elite accountability in 🇺🇸, & elite universities have been at the forefront of that since Iran-Contra, repeatedly offering sinecures to the authoritarians. It's why all the things keep happening time & again: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

The plan: Build a 200-room, 300-bathroom data center, 70% subsidized by federal and local governments. Make it accessible to the train. Build a supermarket for the 800 people doing 24/7 on-site maintenance. Call it the future of technology. Make OpenAI pay for the rest. Then let people move in.

Beware of anyone who is wistful about the aftermath of 9/11. It was a trauma blender of shock, grief, blood thirst, and racism— and it ushered in our surveillance state.

I know it's not how it works now, and probably not how it ever worked, but I think I would flourish as an advertising creative if making Super Bowl ads just involved writing "have Arnold Schwarzenegger say 'get your ass to ZipRecruiter, dot com" on a napkin and letting everyone else figure it out.

"Bottom 60% of households" is a wild phrase
CBS NEWS
The findings? For the bottom 60% of U.S. households, a
"minimal quality of life" is out of reach, according to the group, a research organization focused on improving lower earners' economic well-being.

Leonard Bernstein in Budapest album cover. Leonard is in a white tracksuit jacket with a monogrammed name I can’t quite read but I think days “Big B”, brown gloves, baby blue pants. He’s looking at you through the camera like your life means nothing to him

A consistent pitch by the makers of ai wearables is that they solve the problem of getting to know your child. www.businessinsider.com/parents-brea...
Molly, who runs a startup to help parents book activities for kids, is willing to use AI for logistics, like meal planning or sorting through her email to surface the most important messages from their daughter's school. Sean, who works in tech sales, wants to go further. He has his eyes on Omi necklace, an AI wearable that listens in on your day and includes a feature called Parent Whisperer. It records and analyzes interactions between parent and child, logging things like school assignments and supplies to order. The device also picks up on tone, alerting parents when their kid may be unhappy — registering everything from "from toddler tantrums to teenage mood swings," per its ad copy — and offering "expert-backed guidance" on how to respond.

Blade Runner takes place forty years In the future.
Not so much science fiction as it is more of a futurism story.
How do things seem to be forty years from now?
It's no musical comedy, David.
