Honestly with the amount of systemic corruption this regime is creating and/or exacerbating there are entire agencies that will probably need special trials. I could name a few in particular but I’m told they monitor social media, but you can probably guess which ones.

Let's not overregulate the doomsday machine we wouldn't want to stifle innovation

We should abolish the senate and have a unicameral legislature of proportional representation, and also have the ability to hold recall elections.

Is there anywhere that recordings or some other summaries of these talks will be uploaded?

Ok but if we just blindly trust them, give them even more of our money and private data, and never ever under any circumstances ever try regulating them, then I’m sure this time Silicon Valley’s next big thing will actually pan out.

Then remind them and everyone else, every time they expect everyone to go along with their next alleged billion dollar idea.

1) I only ever hear about my home state when it’s bad news(except the car race)
2) anytime I see a headline with ai in it, it’s almost always something horrible.

True but it could be argued that authoritarianism is based on cowardice as well as greed, cruelty, and a desire for power.

Can’t they be both? Cowards and believers in authoritarianism.

A lesson my mother taught me, sometimes people don’t actually want to hear your viewpoints they just want to tell you why they think your views are wrong.

As a lifelong Hoosier let me say that you are completely correct and the only reason I stay in this state for now is family I’m close with and a lack of money.

It seems like there should be some sort of discussion about that in the post-belos government. Not sure what a solution would be but still a topic worth discussing.

Ethically speaking isn’t gus’ illusion of Boscha kinda equivalent to making a deepfake?

I also think using absurdity as a protest tool disrupts the image the regime wants to portray. While we should treat the regime as a threat, acting absurd while doing so delegitimizes the regime as something deserving of respect. You can’t reason with them so make fun of them instead.

And now I have another entry for my reading list, thank you.

There is a long and proud tradition of using humor and absurdism as a weapon against authoritarianism and fascism. Keep it up and remember above all else the regime demands to be taken seriously, don’t give them that.

To be fair generally being strong and being trained in fighting are technically separate albeit often overlapping skills.

EXECUTIVE ORDERS ARE NOT LAWS. STOP OBEYING IN ADVANCE

OpenAI Needs A Trillion Dollars In The Next Four Years Shortly before publishing this newsletter, I spoke with analyst Gil Luria, Managing Director and Analyst at D.A. Davidson, and asked him whether the capital was there to build the 17 Gigawatts of capa...

Premium newsletter: Based on my estimates and analysis, OpenAI needs one trillion dollars in the next four years to build 17GW of data centers and other commitments, with at least $500 billion needed for company operations. There is not enough capital to do this.

I've never met Heidi. Anyone who thinks AI can do anything with words should read this, and understand that AI doesn't.

Only a human could write this.

If you value words, if you value understanding, if you value humans in all their messy glory, read this, share, and chip in if you can.

Unsurprisingly I hadn’t heard any of this and I try to follow Ai related news, please post an update if he caves or actually does the right thing and stand up to Silicon Valley.

You know how fascism requires a smaller and smaller ingroup as it develops?

Well so does neoliberalism.

Palestinians, trans people, disabled people...they become acceptable losses who must be sacrificed to "save democracy."

The only way to defeat fascism is to leave no one behind.

The degree to which they just constantly probe at the overton window to see what the reaction is like
Schrodinger's fascism, any and all fascistic comments were either jokes or lies unless no one seems too upset/noticed what was said, in which case it was a serious proposal.

Well in a dictatorship not giving the leader unconditional support is a crime.

If I see these videos I tell YouTube to stop recommending these channels to me. Not sure if it helps, but we all have limited options.

Genuinely the most repulsive thing I’ve read all day.

I’m open to the idea but I really like the idea that the buildings be demolished, although I suppose the land could be sold afterwards.

I think civil asset forfeiture should be invoked and his properties should be demolished. No more Trump tower, no more Mar A Lago. Every trace of his physical legacy erased.

Yeah I that makes sense, it makes it frustrating trying to piece together any actual data on public opinion.
