I understand
Let me put on my strategist hat
Okay, I have a plan. We should convince each and every one of those 93,000,000 people to change what they'll accept, because convincing each and every one of 2 people to change what they'll offer is unacceptable and way too much work. I am very smart.

Never getting an answer to that question, it would unravel patriarchy, white supremacy, and all the other things the people with power love
Why does what other people claim to “sincerely believe” matter to my rights and liberties??

The essay reads like the letter Mac wrote to Chase Utley in its always sunny. She didn’t even cite the Bible. There are *zero* connections between demons and gender in scripture. If your essay boils down to just saying “nu uh” then insulting a group of people, you deserve to fail. Shut the fuck up

There is a direct correlation between how fake your job is and how much value you see in AI
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

what the high level of AI adoption among the executive class actually tells you is that their "jobs" are mostly going out to eat and playing on their phones all day.

Fascinating how quickly the "war on terrorism" has now become the "war on narcoterrorism."
Media did nothing to hold accountable the administrations who ignited and perpetuated the made up "war on terror" and now they sit as complicit stenographers for the made up "war on narcoterror." What a shame

This sounds promising. I think over the next few years we should commission a study to review and coordinate a pilot program to test and see if this pilot program based on previous success has potential, then we can analyze the results to see if we should consider starting a pilot program.
An Oregon pilot program giving cash to homeless youths sees a staggering reduction in homelessness. The program gave participants $1,000 cash payments each month for two years, and at the end of the project's first phase, 91% of participants reported being in stable housing.

![[Scene is a kitchen - a middle aged woman called JANET is boiling peas at the stove. A younger more colourfully dressed woman named LIZ approached her.]
JANET:
Ugh...
LIZ:
What's up?
JANET:
I am so bored of cooking peas!
LIZ:
Have you tried...
AI peas?
JANET:
AI peas?
LIZ:
They're peas with AI!
[Liz holds up to us a packet of peas labelled: Pea-i AI - Peas with AI].
LIZ:
Al-powered peas harness the potential of your peas
JANET:
What
LIZ [Now a voiceover as we cut to a whizzy technology diagram of peas all connected by meaningless dotted lines]
Why not take your peas to the next level with Al Peas' new Al tools to power your peas?
[Show a techno diagram of a pea with a label reading 'AI' pointing to a random zone in it]
LIZ:
Each pea has Al in a way we haven't quite worked out yet but it's fine
[Show Janet and Liz now in a Matrix-style world of peas]
LIZ:
With Al peas you can supercharge productivity and make AI work for your peas!
JANET:
What
LIZ:
Shut up
LIZ:
Our game-changing Pea-Al gives you the freedom to unlock the potential of the power of the future of your peas workflow
From opening the bag of peas
to boiling the peas
to eating the peas
To spending millions on adding Al to the peas and then having to work out what that even means.

Is it really necessary to-
