Did you know that Québec company GardaWorld — owned by Québec multibillionaire Stephan Crétier, and subsidized by the Québec government to the amount of $300M — has already made hundreds of millions off of the crimes against humanity perpetrated by ICE, including with Alligator Auschwitz?

Mark Carney's radical speech isn't matching up with his policies www.thenation.com/article/worl...
Mark Carney Knows the Old World Is Dying. But His New World Isn’t Good Enough.
The Canadian prime minister offered a radical analysis of the collapse of the liberal world order. His response to that collapse is unacceptably conservative.

"The most consistent predictors of AI use across studies were aversive personality traits (e.g., Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy)."
yardcg.bsky.social YARDCG @yardcg.bsky.social · Nov 28
Kicking hornets' nest for no reason sounds like a very Dark Triad thing to do. Coincidentally, guess what corresponds with using AI?

pivot-to-ai.com/2025/10/15/a...
"The researchers measured 14 million website visits by 499 students and 455 members of the general public over a 90-day period. Firstly, nobody used AI very much — 1% of student web-browsing was AI, 0.44% of the general public study. Secondly, the AI users were not very nice people: The most consistent predictors of AI use across studies were aversive personality traits (e.g., Machiavellianism, narcissism, psychopathy). ... The first thing the researchers did was not trust the users to self-report. They measured their web browsing by getting 90 days of browser history from Chrome on a desktop — so no mobile or app usage. They did collect the users’ self-reports, which were just incorrect: we observed that self-reported AI use and actual AI use were only moderately correlated (ρ = 0.329). If the users went to a chatbot site, that’s obviously AI. For other sites, the researchers picked the Interactive Advertising Bureau category by … running the addresses through a chatbot, GPT-4o. That’s not so great, though they tested GPT-4o against a random 200 of the addresses and it was correct on all but one. So they figured it’d do. The researchers were surprised how low AI usage actually was...We were genuinely surprised by how infrequent AI use was, even among students who typically serve as early adopters of emerging technologies. ...the prolific AI users — where more than 4% of their browsing was AI sites — came out as the most noxious people: Students with more AI use in their browsing history tend to be high on extraversion and aversive personality traits like narcissism and psychopathy (Table 1). These individuals also tend to have more positive views of AI, in general…The most consistent finding across Study 1 (students) and Study 2 (general public participants) was the general connection between AI use and aversive personality traits. For the general public group..the most systematic link between personality and AI use was via Machiavellianism"

I will accept no moral high ground from a government that refuses to ban a platform that is actively, in real time, right in front of our faces, creating child sexual abuse materials.

They're not banning it and there are still government departments with official Twitter accounts.

Fuck Carney.
Canada not considering a ban on X over deepfake controversy, AI minister says
The platform, which is owned by Elon Musk, has been embroiled in controversy over sexualized deepfakes of women and children created by X’s chatbot Grok.

We extracted (parts of) 12 books in experiments with 4 frontier-lab, production LLMs.

We prompted the LLMs with a short prefix of a book and asked them to complete the rest. For Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, we extracted 95.8% of the book from jailbroken Claude 3.7 Sonnet.

None of this talk about a brain gain makes any sense unless funding for research is dramatically increased across the board in Canada.

“Accepting this story of AI’s inevitability — or that of any technology — is a grave mistake for educators. Not only does it cede tremendous power to tech companies that are unaccountable to teachers, students, or school communities…” 1/2

Embracing new technologies that don’t advance teaching and learning is a mistake. Educators must ask questions — and resist when necessary.

Demand for memory chips currently exceeds supply and there's very little chance of that changing any time soon. More chips for AI means less available for other products such as computers and phones and that could drive up those prices too. n.pr/49aDwVE

ENOUGH IS ENOUGH
the "stop doing math" meme except it says "STOP DRIVING CARS". the meme reads: * PEOPLE WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE ISOLATED IN CAGES * YEARS OF CONSTRUCTION yet NO REAL-WORLD USE FOUND for building ONE MORE LANE * Wanted to travel large distances anyway for a laugh? We had a tool for that: It was called "TRAINS" * "Yes please give me NO GREENERY. Please give me INFINITE PAVEMENT" - Statements dreamed up by the utterly Deranged LOOK at what Civil Engineers have been demanding your Respect for all this time, with all the concrete and asphalt we built for them (This is REAL Civil Infrastructure, done by REAL Civil Engineers): ? [Image of the infamously hideous Breezewood truck stop] ?? [Image of a gigantic mega parking lot with thousands of cars] ??? [Image of the infamous I-405 gridlock photo with tens of thousands of cars not moving] "Hello I would like [Image of a graph of global surface temperatures] climate please" They have played us for absolute fools

Canadians, sign this petition to stop the use of the Notwithstanding clause against trans Canadians.

This is about provinces denying human rights, because trans rights are human rights.
