One source of the discrepancy could be a lie of omission. Where one company has encoded into their AI that it should decline any requests that involve killing people while the other has had Hegseth to pinky swear that he won’t ask their AI to kill people.

It’s both funny and cosmically correct that the U.S. men’s hockey chodes will have to sit through 2+ hours of rambling from their addled little king while the U.S. Women’s team gets to skip the speech and party with Flavor Flav in Vegas

This is one of the evilest things I’ve seen come out of a tech company in my career, and that’s saying something.

He’s not running for Governor unfortunately. They can IPO the for-profit, and the nonprofit can (at least on paper) maintain its ownership stake.

These people need to learn how to blend their makeup. Also, this, undertone is not working for you. And, Scott, you really should consider a moisturizing primer at your age. Skin care is the key to a good base!

Roblox is a problem β€” but it’s a symptom of something worse What is the role of tech journalism in a world where CEOs no longer feel shame?

A strong and true report from the frontlines of tech accountability journalism by @caseynewton.bsky.social: "I'm noticing the degree to which platforms wish to be judged only by their stated intentions, and almost never on the outcomes of anyone who uses them." www.platformer.news/roblox-ceo-i...
