More importantly the AI sector has a long running habit of using this kind of negative disclosure for marketing opportunities: "hey, someone has found a use for our technology, it's the bad guys, you better invest so you don't get caught out"

He's not even being subtle about it: the reason Santos is free is because he voted Republican.
BREAKING: Trump commutes sentence of disgraced former congressman George Santos.
“I just signed a Commutation, releasing George Santos from prison, IMMEDIATELY. Good luck George, have a great life!”

Listen, Newsom has a place, but he's doing "Haha I made a hat that makes fun of you" while Pritzker is at the mic going "There is no corner of the Earth where you will be able to escape my wrath."

Anything as powerful as what was marketed would be used in secret and protected vigorously as trade secret for as long as humanly possible instead of being sold to you, the consumer.

Never forgive anyone who hasn't at least attempted an apology.
There are a handful of ex-MAGAs who have expressed genuine regret for what they did and who they were.
I'm not saying forgive them, but so many leftists are granting forgiveness to the people that haven't even done that bare minimum.

Um...no. Every one of us hasn't. Speak for/tell on yourself. I've been paying attention since HS gov't class. My 18th bday gift to myself was to register.
People who actively fell for/voted for this shit show don't deserve grace. They were told. THEY SHOULD FEEL BAD! THEY SHOULD GET CONSEQUENCES!

If I have to explain to you why it's a bad idea to use a machine that makes shit up 15-80% of the time AND destroys the environment AND contributes to rising fascism and genocide AND puts brilliant skillful creatives out of work by stealing their work, then we're already speaking different languages

I'm reminded of the way that psychics exploit people's grief for profit.
This is truly disgusting.

At 4p ET/1p PT, I’ll have a one of a kind interview with Joaquin Oliver. He died in the Parkland school shooting. But his parents have created an AI version of their son for a powerful message on gun violence. Plus TX Rep. @jamestalarico.bsky.social - see you soon on Substack and later on YouTube.

Silly me. I assumed you'd need to at least wait until the election to scapegoat trans people for your loss.
If he’s the dem candidate and you don’t vote for him then you would be making the same mistake as those in the Abandon Harris movement and you know how that went, by the way it’s our lives to

Oh please. You can talk about a candidate's race and background without accusing him of lying on a form from 15 years ago from a school he didn't even get into.
This was a racist hit piece on a candidate you can't find any dirt against.
Own up to it, apologize, and don't do it again.

I have no idea what people think the benefit is of walking a dog without a leash is. Because there's no way it outweighs the risk.
There’s a dog in our neighbourhood who has had a go at Lilja before, so now any dog of that breed that she sees off lead is her enemy
And we just crossed paths with one and the owner was like “oh I’ll just grab her cause she’s reactive too”
They didn’t have a leash with them 🙃

It turns out creating a situation where 25% of global petroleum liquids might go offline at any minute has an impact on oil prices, who would have guessed.
