www.theguardian.com/commentisfre... - the most appropriate response to this abomination of a presidency is twofold. #1: learn the lesson that the US can not be trusted with anything we truly value and never repeat that mistake. #2: do our best to wipe the name Trump from history, even as a villain.
Trump is shamelessly covering America in his name | Mohamad Bazzi
Trump is using the presidency as a branding opportunity. He’s slapping his name on as many buildings, monuments and government projects as he can

Not all Americans are like Trump. But as a people they elected him, let him break the law, selfishly looked the other way, and have definitively shown their culture is not to be trusted. Sorry @jimmykimmel.com, I like you, but shattered trust is hard to regain. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Dear Britain: things are bad, but America will recover from Donald Trump. Just give us three years | Jimmy Kimmel
When the president targeted me and my TV show, millions said no. So don’t give up on us – and always remember, we’re not all like him, says US talkshow host Jimmy Kimmel

@scottmanley.bsky.social Hi, love your content. I think you're doing yourself a disservice by calling the "AI takes water"-argument a "myth". True: power is the real issue - but power production typically requires / heats massive quantities of water. The argument is often made poorly, not a "myth".

Robert Gregory called the Bondi attack “a tragedy but entirely foreseeable”. He may be right that Australia failed to protect these people, which should be taken seriously, but that doesn't change the fact that the State of Israel is not a victim but a culprit in this ongoing drama.

AI is technology that allows human mistakes to compound at machine speed. Human intent is under-specified, often incoherent, and usually discovered through doing - AI does nothing to mitigate that.

The useful economic life of the GPU compute layer in AI data centres is approximately 5–7 years, with a major GPU refresh cycle every 3–4 years. This means hyperscalers and AI companies like OpenAI must recover their *trillions* of GPU capex within just a few years to remain competitive. Absurd.

Americans spent many decades developing science institutions, establishing a juduciary, creating archives and libraries trusted everywhere. The current government is truly destroying all of that, and it cannot be rebuilt quickly. If those were my tax dollars, I'd seek vengeance.

AI sceptics point to the $1.5B Anthropic fine as a victory for copyright and authors. But it seems to me that their battle was lost, as the ruling comes down to: if you buy a book, you can use it for training and using the information is fair use ("exceedingly transforming" even).
