Fucking incredible dystopian shit, comparing super rich people risking millions if not billions of lives just to make more money to people that risked their life actually building incredible things that would then make millions of dollars for super rich people.

Reem made the effort to speak. Sakher made the effort to share. You have the duty to watch and listen what @sophforreem.bsky.social has shared.

You have the duty to share yourself.

Beyond the disturbing sexual content-- the voice?! Cold, flat, male, synthetic. Profoundly anti-social, as per usual.

Immigration: tous les permis de travail seront renouvelés, sauf à Montréal et à Laval, dit Legault «C’est là qu’on ne renouvellera pas les permis.»

PEQ update (Québec PR programme that was frozen then cancelled without notice): we now have the premier really waffling over this, but still not wanting to allow migrants to settle permanently in Montréal or Laval.

He Blames ChatGPT for the Murder-Suicide That Shattered His Family The estate of victim Suzanne Eberson Adams is suing OpenAI for wrongful death, and her grandson is speaking out for the first time.

“In August, the 56-year-old Soelberg killed his mother and then took his own life in the Old Greenwich, Conn., home where they had been living. It appears to be the first documented killing involving a troubled person who was engaging extensively with an AI chatbot.”

In the weeks before the killing, Soelberg posted a chat to social media where he told his bot, “We will be together in another life and another place and we’ll find a way to realign cause you’re gonna be my best friend again forever.” “With you to the last breath and beyond,” the bot told him in another chat Soelberg posted less than two weeks before he died. Police found Soelberg in the attic. Sharp force injuries of neck and chest were determined to be his cause of death. Soelberg was on the floor near his bed. Police presumed he had fallen off it in his final moments. His two smartphones were found on the bed.

Helps some people compose emails faster though, so impossible to say if it’s bad or good.

AI is Destroying the University and Learning Itself Students use AI to write papers, professors use AI to grade them, degrees become meaningless, and tech companies make fortunes. Welcome to the death of higher education.
