Why is the U.S. public so much more negative on AI than almost anyone else? Well, I think the fact that the U.S. AI industry is being lead by a bunch of very visible, crazy weirdos who talk about how AI will take everyone’s job and maybe kill us all the time is a pretty key factor.

I’m as far away from New York as one could be. Mamdani appears to want to get things done for people, basic things and big things. Looks like he enjoys the heck out of it, as well. More Mamdani’s less corporate owned politicians.

"And so son that's how the 47th president of the United States died, starving to death whilst standing at a podium at the UN in New York waiting for someone, anyone, to applaud his reprehensible speech."
