Having long been aware of those tech bros who read my work as utopian porn, where they’ve taken that doesn’t exactly surprise me.
Mike Rogers says he helped plan the raid that killed Osama bin Laden. He's also said he was “there” & saw the terrorist leader's body. But what really happened? Metro Times found that Rogers has repeatedly exaggerated his role in the historic operation. www.metrotimes.com/news/mike-ro...

it’s amazing that there’s no crime anymore. if you do crime you’re actually just the victim for getting caught. the people who catch you are the criminals

Big Tech executives donated over $227 MILLION to Trump's Super PAC and pet projects. Their payments bought them a seat at Trump's roundtable to regulate AI. We can hardly trust them to create the technology, let alone regulate it. These tech oligarchs are out of control.

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY
It’s easy to see why the AI companies wanted to hide this from the public. The statements are some of the most damning indictments of the ways LLMs were trained, how they work, and the immediate threat they pose to human labor. @jasonkoebler.bsky.social reports. www.404media.co/doom-loop-op...
I’m getting to this mental point where, in order to preserve my sanity, I will open the phone, tell you what the weather is like in Michigan, and then tell you to have a good day. I love you that much.

Sometimes you spellburn down to 0. We have almost recovered. We are thinking of our return!

NEW: As AI companies provoke intense scrutiny, former Obama White House official Jay Carney has joined an effort to “rebuild bonds” between Democrats and the AI industry. Dem operatives are joining the AI industry in droves – we’ve tracked over 100 former Biden officials who made similar moves.
In case you need more reasons to vote for @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : Mike Rogers was a douchebag representative to 9/11 responders.
Mike Rogers didn’t oppose 9/11 responder health care twice. A Metro Times review found nine instances over eight years in which he opposed efforts to establish, advance, or fund care for people sickened after the attacks. www.metrotimes.com/news/mike-ro...
