The real harms of the unchecked spread of airborne illness have never been made transparent to the public. And so here we are today, in ignorance. This season only about 50% of the people who got flu vaccines got their covid vaccine. Intentional downplaying of harms of covid continues to harm us.
Mtl has been an AI hub for decades. That doesn't change how it is mostly a charletan's game right now
strong social services with invested members should be involved in how AI is implemented. That's how you'd end up with accessible and practical uses. but we're hacking that all up
again, true. but carney is cutting services and arts because he wants to move us to a 'defence' economie (i.e. we make weapons now). It strains credulity to think they'll invest in the sort of AI you're suggesting or in the way you envision
if we aren't funding the important real human jobs such as teachers and nurses now, I'm not really interested in hypothetical employments for private companies with experimental tech some time in the future
if they aren't going to be national, then we're paying for private companies to charge us later. Canada's favoutite scam. look at Bell and telephone infrastructure. that sucks normally. it's intolerable after the last 5 years of 3x cost of living increases
it's almost like he has an agenda (or his aides have many) and he doesn't care at all about public image to for votes since he plans to suppress voters anyway. why would you still believe he's operating in good fath and standard norms based on literally anything else he's done?
this is true, but i struggle to believe provincial or federal gov will be competent and focused at delivering this as a nationalized service based on how they treat education (first and secondary), health, canada post, and science funding now. Why would this be different? Real humans need the $$ now
in case you didn't know
why do we want to rush into the tech that has burned hundreds of billions, shown almost 0 productivity gains, has been shown it can't reach AGI, destroys the environment and mental health, sucks at what it claims to do, and funnels money to foreign companies for chips that are useless after?
or is it fine because the plan is to further encroach on treaty territories to waste their water?
hey @markcarneyforpm.bsky.social and @evansolomon.bsky.social
what's the rush for this?
I know the upsides: mass surveillance, cheating on homework, job cuts, broken chatbots, plausible deniability of military targets, ai psychosis, $$$s in single-use chips. etc
but is it really worth the water?
are they wrong though?
Do it sean!!
love this shit like it proves anything. 'we made an incredibly lifelike puppet of an important figure and made it say what we wanted so now you should agree with us.' at least use makeup and make someone rehearse some lines if you're going to do theater
why pick one? quit them all! anthropic helped bomb girls in Iran. google loves participating in genocide. meta has consistantly chosen anti-human options with their policies and tech. Palantir is nakedly evil. there is no good AI. stop pretending
he could start by condemning the Iran war and state, unequivically, that we won't support it- especially not with bodies. or he could keep cosplaying like cares. Aus seems like the least likely place to do anything radical
canada is just mini US with better PR
weird. so they do know how, they just refuse to do it for isreal's lies

literally what is his job if he's not going to even draw a line to enforce? if he can't say what any line might be or what he'd do of they cross it?
what a fucking idiot. says this is 'unempeachable' as if it's not completely dystopic. the correct authority will be notified? while the sitting president (then) is illegally aiding a genocide and the next president kicks ICE into overdrive while invading multiple foreign nations. Wall
'a culture of corruption and systemic racism inside' of all policing is public information. this court finally acknowledged it for this particular shop. good start, keep going
small achievable goals
is that bad?
Buried lede: Meta sends all your nudes to Kenya where humans annotate it and feed it to AI

"All these doomers and forever maskers saying that COVID somehow disrupts immune function. There is no evidence of that"
Isn't there, though? ISN'T THERE?
"Circumstantial. Correlation is not causation". Correct. Just as wilful ignorance is not the same as skepticism.

what is the 'doubt'? who thinks bombing a girl's school because genocidal isreal said so is legal? from the country that kidnapped another foreign leader 2 months ago? from a country breaking its own laws arresting and shooting its own citizens? wtf is the doubt?
great stuff from the people who started a war by bombing a girl's school. tgey should target themselves next to stop the ones inflicting maximum harm globally
If only there were something we could do .....
