Can we say what “tax the rich means” instead of avoiding the discussion out of sheer cowardice?

The fucked up thing about capitalism is that when people find affordable alternatives due to price gouging, instead of recognizing that people can't afford necessities, the market adapts to increase prices in insane new ways to maintain infinite growth.

Yesterday, Trump’s America dot gov site answered factual questions like “who won the 2020 election” accurately. Today, it no longer does.

Yesterday, asked about its chatbot's many debunkings of Trump, the White House said it "will continue to be updated to provide more features, resources, and the most accurate information from the federal government."
Today...lots of accurate answers have been simply forbidden, with the chatbot framing information like who won the 2020 election as forbidden "political commentary." x.com/ddale8/status/...

Yesterday: Trump administration chatbot says it's not true that Trump inherited the worst inflation in history.
Today: Says it can't answer such questions...

"A.i." is a tool of fascism. These LLMs are controlled by far right billionaires and absolutely can be manipulated to crank up racism, bigotry, and fascist lies. Keep this shit out of schools, government, and every aspect of your lives.

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

the brand safety panopticon has come to twitch
Streamers, wary of both AI and YouTube’s infuriatingly un-transparent hall of mirrors, are not enthused about this new development.

“Ohhh so that’s why ad revenue dropped,” longtime streamer JP "itmeJP" McDaniel said on Twitter.  

“I’m genuinely worried that the sheer fact that I’m a lesbian will cause the AI to remove ads,” said Vtuber LuminusRed. “In the past I’ve tested it and confirmed that I get less ad money if I had queer-related tags on my stream like ‘lesbian,’ so I am worried this dumb AI monitoring will mean I no longer get money from ads on Twitch.”

Trump's final attempt to overturn the E. Jean Carroll sexual-abuse verdict has been denied. The U.S. Supreme Court rejected Trump's request to reconsider its earlier decision not to hear his appeal, leaving the 2023 federal jury verdict intact. And he’s still president.

Nicki Minaj is not a US citizen. She’s a green card holder. Her husband, Kenneth Petty, is a registered sex offender. Her brother, Jelani Maraj, was convicted of repeatedly raping his 11-year-old stepdaughter. So, of course, she’s MAGA.

In 2027 Seattle's minimum wage will be $22.14 per hour. That's more than THREE TIMES the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour—a rate that hasn't been raised since 2009. And yet somehow we're not the jobless wasteland orthodox economics would predict. Weird.
