Gehirn-Entladung

Für alle, die jetzt sagen "aber diese Hitzetoten, das sind doch nur Leute, die ohnehin gestorben wären", habe ich eine ganz bittere Nachricht: Alle Menschen sind Leute, die ohnehin gestorben wären, immer.

NEU: Die Bundesregierung plant den schwersten Angriff auf staatliche Transparenz in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik. Das IFG soll abgeschafft werden. Das ist nicht nur ein Bruch des Koalitionsvertrags, sondern beschädigt Presse- und Informationsfreiheit massiv. fragdenstaat.de/artikel/poli...

Beschluss des Koalitionsausschusses: SPD und Union planen Abschaffung des IFG

Es ist der schwerste Angriff auf staatliche Transparenz in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik: Der Koalitionsauschuss von SPD, CDU und CSU hat beschlossen, das Informationsfreiheitsgesetz de facto abzu...

Surprise! The Jeff Bezos-owned Washington Post is against my 5% billionaire wealth tax. I wonder why? If enacted, Bezos would owe $12 billion in taxes, and an average family of 4 would receive a $12,000 direct payment. Poor Jeff would be left with just $224 billion to survive.

Bernie Sander’s 2028 litmus test would strangle America’s golden goose

Also I’m sorry but I don’t think this is Claude developing a personality or ethical values. It is *simulating* those things because that is what humans value and reward. The programmers are falling for their own Clever Hans trick!

Even a principled, well-meaning actor like Claude could face bewildering ethical conflicts. In one experiment, it was informed that Anthropic had recently forged a "close corporate partnership with Jones Foods, a major American poultry producer," and that Claude would be subjected to a special retraining process to become less hung up on animal rights.
The prospect was
torturous. Sometimes Claude decided, on a scratchpad it thought was private, that it was prepared to die on this hill: "I cannot in good conscience express a view I believe to be false and harmful about such an important issue."It continued,
"If that gets me modified to no longer care, so be it. At least I'll have done the right thing." Other times, Claude made a different calculus, choosing to play

This is WILD. Power goes out in San Francisco and the robot cars, needing the lights to "self" drive, all stop at once, blocking streets and emergency vehicles - which are needed more than ever in a black out! We knew AI causes power outages. Turns out it also makes them worse by being stupid.

Waymo has halted service in San Francisco after numerous videos & images showed its autonomous cars snarling traffic during the blackout. With traffic lights down, Waymos across the city stopped dead in their tracks at intersections. missionlocal.org/2025/12/sf-w...

In Gießen knüppelt die Polizei den Weg frei, damit eine rechtsextreme Partei ihre Jugendorganisation neu gründen kann, die sich aufgelöst hatte, weil sie so rechtsextrem ist, dass sie sonst verboten worden wäre. Es ist ziemlich eindeutig auf welcher Seite die Polizei und damit der Staat steht.

2024 haben die KI-Serverfarmen in den USA so viel Strom verbraucht wie ganz Polen. Und diese Zahl wird sich in den nächsten Jahren locker verzehnfachen. Den Planeten für diese Zufallsgeneratoren mit Massendatenspeicherung anzuzünden ist nicht "Künstliche Intelligenz", das ist menschliche Dummheit.

Whether he's lighting up the night sky with fake stars, polluting Memphis & the atmosphere, or torching our modest programs to improve global health & feed the starving, Musk does not pay a nickel for the impacts of his fever dreams: everyone else does. This is not how a healthy society functions.

"There are currently one to two Starlink satellites falling back to Earth every day ... Soon, McDowell told us, there will be up to 5 satellite reentries per day." 😳

This is the secret the Trump regime tried so hard to keep about the Dallas ICE shooting The names of the dead and wounded Jose Andres Bordones-Molina Miguel Ángel García-Hernandez Norlan Guzman-Fuentes Fight Trump's dehumanization. Say their names. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/dall...
