Andy Basheer just said to Jake Tapper the KY had 1 (ONE!!!!) transgirl playing sports. She is in 7th grade and SHE STARTED THE FIELD HOCKEY TEAM TO PLAY WITH HER FRIENDS. Think about her when you are demanding democrats crush these young people for the *potential* political gain

ah yes, let's have important identity documents arrive in very clear packaging that makes it easy for thieves to distinguish and have access to vital information that they can then use to steal identities. I see no potential problems with this!

remember: it saved no net money, social services US citizens are getting cut, and left the US in a weaker place geopolitically. none of the debates about fiscal responsibility, obligation to US citizens first, or 'hard choices' actually apply. they're all bullshit. killed people for nothing at all.

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.”

I enjoyed reading this today and learned something new, as I didn’t realize that colors reflect a certain angle from Red (42 degrees) to Violet (40 degrees). I’ve seen a circle rainbow from an airplane in the winter when it looked like a sun dog formed a full circle.

As of today, the CDC has changed (reverted) their Covid guidance to make the vaccine recommended for all people over 18. In addition to being a smart public health move, this recommendation also means insurance must cover it. Read more here: www.cdc.gov/covid/hcp/va... Listen to a breakdown here:

I haven’t been able to stop thinking about this - not just the statement itself, but the proliferation of this worldview in the past 15 years. It’s always been there but the out loud part of it now continues to shock. “Those aren’t real people.”

I tend to think of the Internet as having intentional and non-intentional spaces. A good, well moderated forum or subreddit can be intentional. But the vast majority of social sites are non-intentional and arguably worse than vegging out in front of the TV.

Defund ICE. Take its entire budget and devote it to a Manhattan Project that can devise and implement sound guardrails for AI, and figure out how to stop what can and should be stopped in the way of superintelligence and recursive self-improvement. AI is far, far more dangerous than immigrants.

That was disappointing from the Broncos - like they needed 1 more preseason game to get it right. Run defense and tackling really let them down. And Bo was off, one of his worst games as a Bronco.

If a generative AI CEO is telling you something, take it with a grain of salt the size of an iceberg. So if they want regulation now, it is more likely something to do with finances than an immediate existential threat. These dipshits do not care about existential threats other than going bankrupt.

If the law stated REAL DAMN CLEAR that a frontier lab is found liable for punitive damages if its model escapes its sandbox and hacks shit, and if that law was robustly enforced, then the frontier labs would figure out how to build better sandboxes. This really isn't rocket science.

we tracked months of rent payments to an estimated 13,000 families. the expected cost of rehousing those families, had they entered eviction, would be north of $218 million dollars. keeping them housed cost around $38-40 million

So (if I understand this correctly), the way AI (companies) will "solve" all the major problems in maths, biology, and medicine in the next 5 years will be by stealing and building on the ideas of researchers naive enough to think their chats with AI companies would be private.

The sheer amount of things that will need to be undone or reversed is just piling up. As much as there’s a reckoning with the damage done I think we also need to look at how we rebuild. Not everything is a reversal or going back to the way things were.
