Google is ready to work on AI weapons now
The company’s promise to avoid building AI applications that cause harm has been deleted

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

Ever think about how Facebook convinced all the news outlets to pivot to video and then it turned out they were juicing the metrics so it didn't actually work but by that point lots of the media had cut all the resources for text-based news and we're still dealing with the fallout from that now?

I have two friends, neither of whom are politics reporters but who both work in “the media,” who both told me yesterday that they aren’t even allowed to write or post about Trump with work accounts because describing anything he’s doing objectively would appear “anti-Trump.”
The NYT, WaPo, LAT, CNN, etc etc have shifted to the right. Fox & the Post et al have always been hard right. Twitter & Meta are controlled by right wingers. On a daily basis, millions of Americans - probably the majority - see nothing but sanitized, accomodationist, right wing coverage of Trump.
the average person isnt paying attention. Most people have no idea whats going on.

"No Other Land," the Palestinian-Israeli made film showing the destruction of the occupied West Bank's Masafer Yatta by Israeli soldiers, just won the Oscar for Best Documentary.

It can't get a distributor in the US.

Which tells you everything about censorship in the US.

Det her handler om UK men føler det er ret rammende for den danske venstrefløj også. Hvornår stopper vi med at putte plastre på de sår neoliberale, borgerlige og centrister tilføjer vores samfund og kommer med nogle radikale visioner for et utopisk samfund istedet?
Until we get a left that is willing to offer people anything other than doing conservatism more charitably we're going to get absolutely nothing at all of value that wouldn't be gotten easier by building stuff locally ourselves in insular and isolated ways.
