Sounds like a plane hit a chopper while going in to land at Reagan and they've already pulled bodies out of the Potomac.

Dang. I’m like 15 minutes away. Someone got shot at the hotel right next to mine today too.

Apparently super genius Sam Altman has an AI model that can replace all of them, Zuckerberg is moving to DC for reasons unknown and all the tech bros are trashing the Chinese AI for censoring certain topics and possibly stealing peoples personal data! Heaven forbid!

Wait isn’t that most of big techs entire business model?

This is all so fucking dumb.

I mean North Dakota made a conscious effort to phase jobs out as older folks retired and I believe it was a huge success. You do online portals or whatever.

The AI stuff creeps me out and I don't think that's a republican or Democrat or conservative or liberal thing. It's just reality. Idk how you feel. It's something beyond my understanding. Maybe (probably) you have a better understanding.

I agree with what you’re saying in the first paragraph.

It’s not so much about AI, it’s the crazy philosophies that underpin most of these guys thinking and the lack of a serious public discussion about the impacts AI might have on society and the world.

I also honestly believe these dudes could give two fucks about the average American let alone anyone else and are by and large amoral and fancy themselves the “masters of men”. Add all those things together and yeah it’s pretty disturbing.

I could get more into it but here’s something to consider, Zuckerberg was a buttoned down cyborg asking Xi Jinping to name his unborn kid a few years back. Now he looks like Sean Penn in Carlitos Way, is moving to DC and sucking up to Trump. Shit is weird and gross.

Anyhow, this dude Jathan Sadowski
has written some interesting critiques of AI and tech in general.

If you're outraged or surprised by what this guy does about anything at this point, welcome back from the deep coma you've been in for ten years.

He's blaming Obama, Biden and DEI. Nevermind 60 souls were onboard the plane and lost their lives. The three solidiers in the helicopter as well. This is who he is, this is what he does, and he's been placed into office twice.

"We're better than this." No, we ain't. It's who and what we are too.
