Is it time to build a bunker yet? 😬

Can you link directly to the podcast or its RSS feed? I'm old school, I don't use the centralized services mentioned.

Can't they just use an AI to do that? 😂

It's not the lack of shock you're seeing, it's the feeling of helplessness and exasperation.

Dude, it's just beginning 😭

And that, in turn, makes the voters (and eligible non voters) responsible. It's a damn shame all the way around.

That doesn't sound right. We don't refer to people by their job titles. E.g., no one ever refers to me as "Software Developer Tharpe" even in formal settings.

The rule is that you should always refer to a person by the highest honor they've attained. A retired doctor is still "doctor", a coach who no longer coaches is still "coach" and so on.

If AI provides advice, the context it uses should be clear.

And, maybe most importantly, AI should be capable of saying "I don't know" and elucidating what it's missing, rather than hallucinating.

As with any system that impacts people: build transparently and accountably.

If AI makes decisions, the reasons should be readily apparent. There should be recourse when it makes mistakes.

If AI provides information, the sources should be known and verifiable. Errors should be correctable.

I like the idea in principle, but wouldn't that just create a void that would be filled with whoever the MAGA party wants?

It doesn't seem like there's much that can be done. "Organize", "vote", "speak out", "donate", and so on seem like platitudes at this point.

Best of luck!

A great example of why I don't use Twitter anymore

I guess it's time to throw out my Amazon Echo

I like the part where he explains the basis of morality.

There are several. Scratch is the one I've used most. I recently used one for Java (I forget the name) to help some middle school kids program a robot.

I'm 100% in favor of this. I work from home, so it's business up top and PJ party from the waste down. I hate getting changed to go out!
