The far right power grab is global and entirely organized, moneyed & interconnected. No matter where it happens, every pillar of free society that falls has been and will continue to be everyone’s problem. It’s a domino effect.

I’m confused. Isn’t someone who doesn’t need to file a health insurance claim what the MAHA people claim they want? What’s the problem? Is it that these people not filing claims are TOO profitable for the insurance company?

honestly some of the most apocalyptic impacts of "AI" will be shit like this, and most of the doomsday dipshits predicting SkyNet can't be bothered to notice or care

UnitedHealth uses AI model with 90% error rate to deny care, lawsuit alleges
For the largest health insurer in the US, AI's error rate is like a feature, not a bug.

“AI will kill us all” is how the tech industry, especially rich people in it, avoid talking about real world problems—ones they’re causing, exacerbating, or neglecting—while still thinking themselves good. “I’m better than all that,” they say. “I got high with my friends and BSed about the future.”

One of the coolest things about people who don't have a lot of power taking a principled stand is it lays bare the complete cowardice of the ones who actually *do* have power when they fail to do even a fraction as much.

So rather than increase faculty payroll and lower student:teacher ratios, UMass would rather spend it on Claude. I would argue that a better investment would be hiring 100-200 tenure-line faculty.

Anyway. Data politics are the cataclysmic danger. AI is mostly just a mid tech attached to a speculative finance scheme. Anything it can make dangerous is already dangerous enough to kill us.

They've used up all the oil they could to keep prices as low as they could for as long as they could. Seems like the biggest blunder in the history of America is catching up. www.nbcnews.com/business/bus...

Oil surges past $101 to highest closing since May as Middle East conflict intensifies
Gas prices rose to $4.22 on Wednesday for unleaded, the highest level since June 5. Diesel set a new all-time record, at $5.94 per gallon.

if you're looking for the cause of declining good union manufacturing jobs over the last 50 years, domestic competition from right-to-work sunbelt states is a much bigger deal than foreign competition from free trade.

Like a type of music that has deep roots in American folk music and harkens back to classic country music exists and the audience for it is educated urban hipsters. The volk hate that shit and instead like mainstream country music, a hideous behind-the-times pastiche of other top 40 pop genres

A really weird irony about the "authenticity" debate wrt rural volk vs cosmopolitan elites is that the actual culture of rural red state America in the 2020s is not actually authentic in any meaningful way?
