The US is crashing into all of that like a howling chimp, throwing shit everywhere and forcing everyone else to unite to deal with them. Greenland will choose us over them, but they didn't want to be forced into making that shit-ass choice.

Denmark maintains a colonial relationship with Greenland. They are dependent on us economically, and we have deliberately kept it that way, and they are generally not very happy about that. There's a decades and decades long political process in Greenland of trying to change that.

Greenlanders don't want to be American, because they know the horrors that would follow, but they don't want to be fucking Danish either. They want to be Greenlanders, they want sovereignty and self-determination.

Independence. They choose independence and have been fighting for independence and sovereignty for a very long time. We colonized Greenland and brutalized the indigenous inhabitants, we were doing forced sterilisation to their bodies until the fucking 1990s.

In Denmark, you get free healthcare, free university education, a solid state pension and 5-star public transport.

The USA have people going bankrupt to pay medical fees, many with huge student loan debts and ICE terror on top of it all.

If you were from Greenland - who would you choose?

Technology Salesforce regrets firing 4000 experienced staff and replacing them with AI GUIDING PATIENTS WITHR SKILL AND COMPASSION. Build an amazing career in nursing with us. See Available Roles / Newtork Presbyterr 1 The Ne 1ina NURSE 甄 J NewYork. 7 Presbyteria. Salesforce regrets firing 4000... Months later, the tone inside the company has shifted. Executives Acknowledge Overconfidence in AI In recent internal discussions and public remarks, senior leaders at Salesforce acknowledged that the company was "too confident" in the ability of AI systems to fully replace human judgment, particularly in complex customer service scenarios. According to executives familiar with the transition, automated systems struggled with nuanced issues, escalations, and long-tail customer problems. The result was declining service quality, higher complaint volumes, and internal firefighting to stabilize operations that had once been handled by experienced staff. You cannot put a bot where a human is supposed to be "We assumed the technology was further along than it actually was," one executive said privately, reflecting a growing recognition that AI performance in controlled demonstrations did not translate cleanly into real-world customer environments.

These are totally unsupported claims with no links, citations or even statements like “sources familiar with the matter.” I read basically every single story about AI efficacy at big companies, especially salesforce. These are either made up or egregious extrapolations of things.
Recently, senior executives at Salesforce have admitted, both internally and publicly, that they massively overestimated Al's capabilities. They have found that AI simply can't cope with the complex nature of customer service and totally fails at nuanced issues, escalations, and long-tail customer problems. They even say that it has caused a marked decline in service quality and far more complaints. But the problems go far deeper than that. Both employees and executives have said that the company is wasting countless resources on firefighting to stabilise operations since the mass Al layoff. Employees have to spend so much time stepping in to correct the wildly wrong Al-generated responses that Al is wasting more time than it saves. In other words, this AI reduces productivity, not increases it. But there is also a huge problem here with expertise and skill debt. On top of the firefighting to correct the AI, executives have also highlighted how they are also having to firefight to stabilise their systems from problems that were previously easily solved by staff who had the required experience and skill. However, these staff were fired in the Al layoffs. Expertise, experience and skilled employees are really hard for a company to acquire. You see, much of the expertise, experience, and skills required are unique to the company and its operations. These operations will have quirks, common problems, and unique issues that even the most experienced outsider will really struggle with, but are effortless to someone with experience within the company. As such, these attributes are not only vital, but are nurtured and grown within a company, and cannot be hired in on a whim. What Salesforce has done is chuck all this experience out the window, and now they are suffering. To say this is a damning indictment on Benioff, his capabilities as a CEO, and his cult-like push for Al is an understatement. It demonstrates that he is dangerously ignorant, as it was painfully evident that this would happen; more on that in a minute. Salesforce is doing a U-turn, and is "reframing its AI strategy," shifting away from trying to replace workers, and instead doing what executives call "rebalancing." Basically, they are trying to re-hire these critical roles and expertise they have lost, take Al out of the driver's seat, and augment workers rather than replace them. More on why that is still a terrible idea in a minute.

I love art that’s horrific to look at at a glance. I love stories that can make the most normal object a thing of terror in the context it lives in. Combine em both and yum yum yum i am living deliciously.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

my new video, The Mundane Misery of MAGA's Bluey Copycat, is now up on Nebula 🩵 and will be up on YouTube once copyright nonsense clears. Chip Chilla claims to bring the magic of literature to kids in conservative homes. Does it?

Saw a lot of headlines saying "wikipedia is embracing ai" being tossed around tabloids, and I'm pretty sure they were maliciously written to make you feel a certain way about Wikipedia. What's actually happening is that wikipedia is demanding payment for data scraping and the corpos don't like that.

Sure. AI companies have ALWAYS been training their models on Wikipedia content, which under the free and open access model is available to anyone — including AI companies. Agreements like these require AI companies to limit and offset the strain they place on Wikimedia infrastructure.

Breaks my heart to share this, but today is my last day at The Verge and I am looking for work! I'd really like to stay in video games, preferably in some kind of journalistic capacity but I can do PR/Marketing and maybe even a lil Narrative Design. Please get in touch!
