The last few times I visited LA I carried my passport with me due to concerns with ICE. Some thought this was crazy. Today Justice Kavanaugh has confirmed that yes, I need to carry my proof of citizenship with me everywhere I go, or else I will be legally arrested for no other reason than existing.

We need to stop using a framework of 'ChatGPT killed someone', it feeds into the myth of the system's agency & OpenAI's framing.

I have a ton of issues with this op-ed but I love the idea of the duality of Waymo silicon valley vs Tesla silicon valley
I think what Friedman is gesturing at here is the fact that Waymo is pretty much the only big tech play that taps into the dying positive vibes around big tech: it's really smart people solving a really hard, transformative problem in a generally responsible way.
That's not a political platform.

Imagine any pilot now tasked with flying into a war zone and wondering if any of your dumbass bosses texted your exact location to the wrong person
They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics.
Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Don’t think everyone appreciates how devastating this is for Tesla. In the wake of a man getting disappeared for his politics, even people slightly considering checking out a Tesla *despite* the politics will now avoid it out of fear of what could happen. Another nail on the coffin
