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.

A machine is more blameless, more sinless even than any animal. It has no intentions whatsoever but our own.

We’ve spent the last two decades learning that an information stream designed exclusively for the purpose of validating and reinforcing your priors makes people delusional and unhinged. This is just the ultimate expression of that.

recently my friend's comics professor told her that it's acceptable to use gen AI for script-writing but not for art, since a machine can't generate meaningful artistic work. meanwhile, my sister's screenwriting professor said that they can use gen AI for concept art and visualization, but that it won't be able to generate a script that's any good. and at my job, it seems like each department says that AI can be useful in every field except the one that they know best.

It's only ever the jobs we're unfamiliar with that we assume can be replaced with automation. The more attuned we are with certain processes, crafts, and occupations, the more we realize that gen AI will never be able to provide a suitable replacement. The case for its existence lies on our ignorance of the work and skill required to do everything we don't.

the discourse on what jobs are acceptable to replace with generative AI reveals a lot about what we think of other people's jobs

This is why domestic "shuffle" flights between ICE detention centers have skyrocketed, much moreso than ICE deportation flights.

When you are moved to a different jurisdiction, you have to refile your habeas petition all over again. They want to wear people down so they'll give up on their cases.

Look I know it’s not cool to brag but about 20 years ago I told Bari Weiss that she was absurd and should go to hell.

"This promise of an AI future, is really just a collective anxiety that wealthy people have about how well they're gonna be able to control us in the future."

Incredible words.

This is stunning. Listen to this in Philadelphia.

Thousands singing β€œHey-Oh, we won’t be silent while our friends are gunned down.”

Really listen to it.

Either way, remember that @theguardian.com is in partnership in OpenAI, and has since published a lot of articles seeking to minimize anxiety or critique of the technology
