For comparison, every robotic mission NASA has ever sent in its history, from the dawn of the Space Age 65 years ago to today, from Mercury to Pluto and beyond, has cost less than $40B.

A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings.
“It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale.

As always, note that these people are describing a world they want to watch. They think real life is a feed to scroll through, and they want some better content. Never once occurs to them that they might inhabit the world they demand we live in for their entertainment.

People will really cross their arms and say “Ai is okay if it’s funny” and will be presented with facts about how GenAi is harming environments and communities and insist “it’s the hardware not the technology!” As if it isn’t all interlinked. Christ

Every single USian who told pollsters in 2024 that you wanted immigrants stopped — 55% of you, conservative and liberal both — are responsible for this travesty. You may not see yourselves as spiteful, paranoid fools hiding behind a thin blue line, but that is exactly what you are.
“Traumatized, humiliated, degraded.”
The nurse, a US citizen, 4’11”, 85 lbs, says she was following orders when she was dragged out of her car by masked immigration agents in Florida.
It was the 3rd time she had been stopped and told to produce ID.

Folks i do not believe the government is going to side with you on the ai debate, they serve only the owning class.
That said, go ahead on donate and show up for this. If im right, you lose nothing by having tried it this way. Just know in your hearts the only way to win will be organized labor.

Open AI doesn't want to be transparent about what's in their datasets - this bill would force them. If you're pro AI regulation (esp if you're in Bay Area), please show up and offer your support for this bill! If you can't make it, help spread the word!
