If you are reading this, it probably means you are doomscrolling the authoritarian apocalypse, instead of actually doing something about it. I can't recommend action enough. Switch off social media, limit it to a small bit of time per day, and work on your organising instead.
Btw this is in no small part Trump's hissy fit over not getting the Nobel peace prize.
Trump has ordered a massive military buildup in the Caribbean.
After months of lethal strikes at sea, Trump is threatening to expand this illegal unauthorized war to Venezuela.
We don’t need another war. We need health care for all.

Eerily similar to the Bill Gates talking points
deeply wild clip of a fossil fuel economist on norway's state broadcaster claiming
- 3 degrees of warming is a "problem we can live with"
- Extreme weather is not a threat to human welfare
- We need to dig up Norwegian oil and gas to help 'poor Africans in huts' get rid of polluting cooking fuels

Exposing the secret history of the making of the climate crisis should change everything about how we act to stop it.

I still stand by these, even as universities around the world, including my own, brainlessly capitulate to AI.
As promised, here are the slides I shared with students to convince them to NOT use chatGPT and other artificial stupidity.
TL;DR? AI is evil, unsustainable and stupid, and I'd much rather they use their own brains, make their own mistakes, and actually learn something. 🪄

The boyfriend of a friend of my son's has spent several weeks in a psych ward due to Chat GPT induced psychosis. He isn't suicidal but AI encouraged him down a toxic and paranoid wormhole until he became completely delusional. Evil stuff.
