Nour Odeh: "It didn't happen because of the Oct 7 attack, in fact, Israeli society has been veering to the right for years" And of course it wasnt the Israeli right who established the occupation, settlement project & apartheid. No, it was the so called moderates who did that

Did you know? In 1975 the United Nations general assembly passed a resolution declaring "zionism is a form of racism & racial discrimination" (the resolution was revoked in 1991 because Israel made this a condition of its participation in peace talks)

Word! They have also murdered an unbelievably high amount of doctors and surgeons. The targeting of Doctors, surgeons and journalists is a strategic method, to ensure that there will be little to no eyewitness accounts when this is all over. Yet leaders will still say it’s not a genocide.

this is by far the best "I quit my AI job over safety concerns" essay yet because it is the first one that is able to talk about safety concerns in practical terms and that understands "safety" as a topic with extensive literature in analogous fields www.theatlantic.com/technology/2...

Two changes are urgently needed. First: AI companies need to rely more on the safety expertise that already exists in other fields. And second, before we create systems significantly more capable than the ones we have today, we need new science to ensure that more capable models (and their successors) will make safe choices when we aren’t looking.

Given today’s risks, frontier labs need to run like nuclear-power plants or busy airports, with layers of redundancy and careful, time-consuming planning, so that the occasional and inevitable human error does not open a door to disaster. Right now, AI companies don’t know how—but other people do. In a nuclear-power plant, the technical systems and rules people follow are set up so that, if equipment breaks or someone pushes the wrong button, we still won’t risk a meltdown. OpenAI and other labs are growing and deploying frontier AI with far less redundancy and rigor than this, even though the harm from an irreversible loss of control would be much greater than the harm from any single meltdown. Even short of a full loss of control, we could see autonomous swarms of AI agents that act without human permission. Imagine “rogue” agents that work like teams of hackers (for example, holding hospital computer systems for ransom) but never need to sleep.

There's a line in the song "The Change" that goes: " It's not the world that I am changing. I do this so, this world will know, that it will not change me" Even if boycotting this game didn't materially help Palestinians, it would undoubtedly help Ireland to retain our soul.
