This week, consultants at Bain & Co. estimated the wave of AI infrastructure spending will require $2 trillion in annual AI revenue by 2030. By comparison, that is more than the combined 2024 revenue of Amazon, Apple, Alphabet, Microsoft, Meta and Nvidia, and more than five times the size of the entire global subscription software market. Morgan Stanley estimates that last year there was around $45 billion of revenue for AI products. The sector makes money from a combination of subscription fees for chatbots such as ChatGPT and money paid to use these companies’ data centers. How the tech sector will cover the gap is “the trillion dollar question,” said Mark Moerdler, an analyst at Bernstein.

*The AI boom = one of the costliest building sprees in world history

* Past 3 years' commitments are greater than the cost of building the U.S. interstate highway system

* Consumers must spend $800 billion on AI within a few years, to justify investment from 2023-24

I like Jimmy Kimmel. I really do. I have no issues with him.

I'm talking about something very different.

Kimmel was only suspended. But he's back now. Karen Attiah and all the other Black journalists are still fired.

Y'all do know how to fight, when you want to.

But you don't really want to. 🤷🏿‍♂️

For the release of @jennalevine.bsky.social 's new book a witchy and vampire Kermits

Shitty stick figures of Rey and Ben solo, Ben has raked a pile of leaves and Rey has buried herself in them, tossing them up.

Happy Fall 🍁

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

Thanks so much Anne 🥰

Glad you enjoyed it 😊 💜

i want to stress: i firmly believe that we, just us normal people, can push back against this global wave of censorship.

we CAN do this.

there may be temporary setbacks, lost battles, but i do firmly believe that with sustained action, we can make our futures better for art and human expression.

Phee never thought that one room could hold her entire world, but as she stood there in the door, the light from the hallway illuminating Clyde and their little ones, she knew that everything she could ever want was right here.

This is why I keep talking about it. If I can impact at least 1 person, it has a ripple effect.

Because if I can get 1 person to realize COVID is still something to worry about and do preventative measures, that will break the infection chain & potentially reduce harm or prevent death to others.

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue and Green are outside. The sun is shining, and Green - who is carrying an umbrella - glares at it angrily. Green: How is it only sunny when I have my umbrella? Still frowning, Green turns back towards Blue, who looks at him quietly. Green: But if I prepared for sunshine, it would rain. Green's expression brightens up as he opens the umbrella. Blue continues watching, saying nothing. Green: But wait, what if I use my umbrella as a parasol? Both of the foxes float off into the air. Having let go of his umbrella, Green looks at it with frustration as it floats away from him. Blue: Ope, there goes gravity. Green: Oh, not again.

Location shoot in Scotland- for “F“ cold but beautiful!

Supporting a community resource burned down in these Nazi attacks in the UK.

At least 63 billionaires have now publicly endorsed Trump, hosted a fundraiser for him, or contributed to Trump aligned PACs.

Why are they rallying behind him? Tax cuts, mostly. But there's more.

The more Trump tears down democracy, the safer the oligarchy becomes.

Be warned.

Biden says 'everybody must condemn' attack on Trump, hopes to speak with ex-president soon President Joe Biden says “everybody must condemn” the suspected assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump.

"the Biden campaign said it was pausing all messaging to supporters and working to pull down all of its television ads as quickly as possible, the campaign said."

I know these people are incompetent jackasses but "let's just let Trump speak unopposed" is borderline deliberate sabotage

I will repeat myself. In the absence of a ceasefire deal *this summer*, the displacement of close to two million Palestinians in Gaza (and beyond it) could very likely become permanent ethnic cleansing. Just like it happened in 1948.

Violet Affleck made a public comment opposing the proposed mask ban in #LosAngeles! 🔥 #LA #health

Violet Affleck: "To confront the Long COVID crisis I demand mask availability, air filtration and far-UVC light in government facilities, including jails and detention centers and mask mandates in county medical facilities. And most importantly, the county must oppose mask bans for any reason." 🔥🔥🔥

Hot take: I'm truly not interested in hand wringing over how much people will miss enjoying the books of men who have turned out to be abusers. I'm far more concerned about the missing art that women haven't been able to create/publish because they crossed paths with such men.
