There's the line from Citizen Kane: "It's no trick to make a lot of money if all you want is to make a lot of money." The problem is the sort of personality for whom money is the ends rather than the means, is not generally a great personality to be around.

A Day for Gaza Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.

Today, as Gaza continues to be stuck in a bloody limbo, we are turning our website over to Gaza and its people in an initiative we are calling โ€œA Day for Gaza.โ€ There will be no pieces published on our website today that do not come directly from Gaza.

โ€œWill the federal government remain silent on the potential multiple violations of the Canada Health Act? Will civil society be compelled to seek a court order to force the federal government to enforce the Canada Health Act?โ€

Beware: The ongoing hype surrounding Artificial Intelligence tends to ignore the limitations of the technology.

Fundamentally, AI tools are SOFTWARE, including the limitations and pitfalls of software.

For any question posed, you have no significant ability to predict the limitations.

Elon Musk is claiming heโ€™s risked everything to protect kids from sexual abuse mere weeks out from laughing while his AI chatbot was generating nearly 8,000 sexual abuse images per hour that overwhelmingly targeted girls and young women

This isnโ€™t about convicting Don Lemon. Itโ€™s unlikely that will happen. Itโ€™s about intimidating journalists & making them censure themselves out of fear of consequences. Itโ€™s about eroding the free press because the administration canโ€™t afford the criticism.

baffling that the media isnโ€™t making more of an issue out of how carney is gutting key federal agencies/depts and what thatโ€™s going to mean for gov capacity when weโ€™re supposed to be more independent and capable.

food inspection, health canada, statscan, global affairs โ€” all being cut, and more
