Andrew Marr has a bit of history with predictions...

5 Jul 2022: Predicts the end of Boris Johnson.
7 Jul 2022: Johnson resigns.
14 Oct 2022: Predicts the end of Liz Truss.
20 Oct 2022: Truss resigns.

8 Feb 2026: Says Starmer will resign in the ‘next few days’.

Will he be proven right again?

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.

She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.

It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

The oldest known image of an owl:

More than 30,000 years ago, someone skillfully scratched the figure of a long-eared owl (Asio otus) into the soft outer layer of the walls of Chauvet Cave, France. The owl is looking backward over their wings, head turned 180 degrees

Palantir CEO laughs about profiting from killing Palestinians using AI.

He calls them 'Hamas' 'useful idiots' and 'mostly terrorists'.

But there is only one terrorist here, and Palantir are war criminals.

Everytime I teach global health these days, young people express their dismay at the state of the world and the pathetic leadership we see in most places

They invariably ask me, "What can we do??"

These days, I go prepared with this list (slide below that anyone is welcome to use)

A real gem. The whole cast is superb, but the movie belongs to Aline MacMahon. Given the juiciest of roles to play--a one-time bad girl who has renounced her femininity and found peace more or less living as a man in the middle of nowhere--MacMahon puts all her soul and skill into the performance.

This is Tom Homan's actual goal and why he is focused on law enforcement cooperation.
wrt to some of the replies to this post, part of why the media has “moved on” is because it has become extraordinarily difficult to document ICE activity on the ground, outside of them arresting citizens.
A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

consumer-facing llm chatbots must be stopped.

it's like crack to some people. worse, maybe, because they are being led to believe they're doing the smart thing by using "AI"
according to a pediatric ER doctor my wife follows on Instagram they have started to see children coming in sick because their parents are asking ChatGPT what the correct dosage is on over the counter medication instead of just looking at the instructions on the bottle
One of the easiest ways to shoot down the idea that "AI" is an expert is to show how it deals with something people know about.

Younger readers may not get this as most appliances come pre-wired, but anyone 35+ can see these are chaotic fire hazards.

"How do we get rid of poor people as a whole?" - is in the Epstein file below and I've not seen anyone posting it, nor explaining it.

They have a depopulation plan, we know that.

Get these evil demons out of society, they belong in a dark pit.
