Also the “Bet-ification” of society is super gross and probably the most dystopian thing we’ve done …lately. It’s just so embarrassing. Fan Duel, Fanatics, Draft Kings and whoever else, all hoping society puts a parlay on something…douche chills

An unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume angrily confronted Santa Clara city officials during a joint meeting of the City Council, city authorities, and the Santa Clara Stadium Authority on Monday, using his public comment to condemn the city’s stance on cooperation with ICE.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Not sure people realize how devastating Trump’s failure to acquire Greenland is for the tech Nazis and their network state plans.

There’s a reason Trump kept citing the Golden Dome project as an excuse to invade.

Huge win.

www.reuters.com/world/europe...

www.reuters.com/business/aer...
April 10 (Reuters) - As the Trump administration intensifies efforts to acquire Greenland from Denmark — or take it by force — some Silicon Valley tech investors are promoting the frozen island as a site for a so-called freedom city, a libertarian utopia with minimal corporate regulation, three people familiar with the matter told Reuters. The discussions are in early stages, but the idea has been taken seriously by Trump's pick for Denmark ambassador, Ken Howery, who is expected to be confirmed by Congress in the coming months and lead Greenland-acquisition negotiations, the people said. Howery, whose involvement with the idea hasn't been previously reported, once co-founded a venture-capital firm with tech billionaire Peter Thiel, a leading advocate for such low-regulation cities. Howery is also a longtime friend of Elon Musk, a top Trump advisor. WASHINGTON, April 17 (Reuters) - Elon Musk's SpaceX and two partners have emerged as frontrunners to win a crucial part of President Donald Trump's "Golden Dome" missile defense shield, six people familiar with the matter said. Musk's rocket and satellite company is partnering with software maker Palantir (PLTR.O) C and drone builder Anduril on a bid to build key parts of Golden Dome, the sources said, which has drawn significant interest from the technology sector's burgeoning base of defense startups.

The tech bros' work in Gaza was a trial run for the US.

Look at the technology being used to commit genocide in Palestine, and you'll know what to expect.

Palantir's "ELITE" app used by ICE is nearly identical to the IDF's Wolfpack surveillance system.

This is why DOGE stole all of our data.
Wolfpack has been described as a database of information related to Palestinians. 2 Its existence and precise extent has not been confirmed by Israeli authorities. 3) The database is populated through different tools: Red Wolf, Blue Wolf, and White Wolf. Red Wolf is operated at checkpoints, which are equipped with facial recognition enabled cameras. The faces of all those who approach are scanned and automatically enrolled in the database or matched with an existing entry. The soldier operating the checkpoint then sees a colour signal (green, yellow, red), indicating whether a person may pass the checkpoint, or not. Blue Wolf is based on an app installed on the mobile devices of soldiers which is used to record and access information about Palestinians. Israeli soldiers have reported that the order was to photograph any Palestinian and their ID, without the existence of a suspicion. 4) Allegedly there are prizes for the unit which took the most photographs. (5l The app allows to scan faces and access the colour-coded security label of the targeted individual.

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"
"Here’s an example that Google’s Josh Woodward, VP of the Gemini app, Google Labs, and AI Studio, shared in a blog post about how Personal Intelligence can work. Google also put together a similar example in a video that I’ve embedded below: For example, we needed new tires for our 2019 Honda minivan two weeks ago. Standing in line at the shop, I realized I didn’t know the tire size. I asked Gemini. These days any chatbot can find these tire specs, but Gemini went further. It suggested different options: one for daily driving and another for all-weather conditions, referencing our family road trips to Oklahoma found in Google Photos. It then neatly pulled ratings and prices for each. As I got to the counter, I needed our license plate. Instead of searching for it or losing my spot in line to walk back to the parking lot, I asked Gemini. It pulled the seven-digit number from a picture in Photos and also helped me identify the van’s specific trim by searching Gmail. Just like that, we were set." https://www.theverge.com/news/861576/google-gemini-ai-personal-intelligence-gmail-search-youtube-photos

Comic-con deciding to allow GenAi imagery in the art show —giving valuable space to GenAi users to show slop right NEXT to actual artists who worked their asses off to be there— is a disgrace!

A tone deaf decision that rewards and normalizes exploitative GenAi against artists in their own spaces!
