"Starting, as you did, with no #AI access for us general public... The whole thing is excellent. Not to tell anyone what to do or anything, but go read it everybody!" Why, thanks for liking my piece on the irrelevancy of #opensource / #freesoftware so much! mfioretti.substack.com/p/freeopen-s...

I concluded all by myself 7 years ago that the 1st #AI was CORPORATIONS: mfioretti.substack.com/p/the-real-e... I was sure I couldn't be the first to say so, but I only discovered today the existence of N. Land, who said the same 26 years earlier: iai.tv/articles/cap...

The calls to slow #AI down to protect humanity are FAKE. This mfioretti.substack.com/p/what-those... is what AI executives really mean, and if you haven’t done it already, order your pension fund to divest all its AI-related stocks. Now.

True, but never forget that the solution, at least for #parents of children <10 years old, and for FUTURE parents too, is much much simpler than it could seem: mfioretti.substack.com/p/the-only-t...

On the surface, #Indonesia #socialmedia law is better than others. But it's just another effort that wouldn't be needed at all if only #parents had the guts to never give kids < 15/16 yrs old a personal smartphone www.afterbabel.com/p/designed-f... mfioretti.substack.com/p/meta-strik...

Where should money go first? Data centers for AI, or schools for REAL intelligence? The sad part is that THIS guy (still hoping he was joking, but it doesn't look like it) is a "guru", no people like me, or anybody else with the same or greater amount of REAL common sense and contact with reality.

What WOULD prevent school shootings much better is sane family/mental health POLICIES, but the American need to believe tech & violence can solve everything aims to prevent them

THANKS @ruchowdh.bsky.social for confirming in MIT Tech Review what I wrote here: mfioretti.substack.com/p/i-couldnt-... that is: even if #AI WERE conscious, we shouldn't give a F**K, and we should not repeat with AI the error made with corporations

Stupid, SICK, sh*ty approach to IQ-based embryo selection: "Many medics... question whether such “polygenic” prediction is ready for consumers." My humble note: if you put any form of "consumer" or “market” in this picture, you're getting it wrong before even starting.

Kudos to #France for doing the right thing, i.e. rejecting CRETIN, 100% useless + dangerous age limits for #socialmedia instead of doing the ONLY thing that WOULD work, this: mfioretti.substack.com/p/the-only-t...

"In short, parental controls that do exist place a heavy burden on parents:..different controls across multiple platforms, figure out how to implement them..." I only saw today this proof of how IDIOTIC it is to demand age control of #socialmedia instead of THE one thing that would work, for free:
