Here is my core takeaway,

I have a core take away from reading the article:

"I must repeat: just because somebody claims to be anti AI does not mean they are not doing entryism. Sadly, that is (in isolation) entirely consistent with entryism. Yes, these people lie about their beliefs."

Liars going to lie, especially about their beliefs re: AI/LLMs

@steter @jalefkowit

hover.com formerly Tucows, been there since 2011, no issues.

I was on GoDaddy just prior to that when I learned that "Bob" the guy that created the joint, was mad rabid shutting down domains or handing over data at the least instance of then Prez, Dubya Bush expressing anger/interest in a domain under Bob's jurisdiction at GoDaddy. Too eager to pleez Fashy type moves. I fled as soon as I found Hover was Canadian, and somewhat harder to brow-beat and threaten by FBI request

@inthehands

He also lured PBS News out to the little town he lives in Ohio (where he's helped out more than a few local businesses stay in business). It was a bit of PR, cast as a local news story of big shot comes to little town and lets people question his judgment. I dunno, I feel like this is part of a campaign by his press people.

Insurance policy writers are shorting AI, so I'm voting "we're effed"

From the Register.com Tuesday March, 17th -
`Smiley added: "The question here is if it's all so great, why are the insurance underwriters going to great lengths to prohibit coverage for these things? They're generally pretty good at risk profiling."`

@inthehands @Soulshine It's definitely approaching the Senator Joe McCarthy Army Hearings with Roy Cohn in the side-car.

Have you no sense of decency sir ⁉️
At long last, have you left no sense of decency ❓

@inthehands What makes my blood run cold is the complicity of the hospital itself with this whole crazy bullshit.

Mercy Hospital’s Unity Campus in Fridley, MN. They were telling the Priest and her Lawyer, "There’s no patient here with that name.”, she was not at the hospital ???? And it gets worse, The security guard then threatened to arrest Hultgren and the family friend for trespassing on hospital property.

Da Fuq?!

@thomasfuchs He's crazy. He's coo-coo in the coconut.

@evan There's no eff no. So I just voted No.

@hacks4pancakes One will never, ever hint/make fun of @hacks4pancakes not being aware/knowledge of the LAW(s). No way man, no ignorance, no foul, meets and exceeds ALL expectations.

@GossiTheDog Great, I know we got Prrofpoint at work. Will look forward to this. Right up there with this past Summer's CrowdStrike Falcon sensor malarkey.

@GossiTheDog I want to try this out myself, kick the tires, take a test drive.

@GossiTheDog And I luv seeing George's accomplishments listed out here:

`In his personal time, he is an avid exotic car collector and has driven Audi R8 LMS GT4 and Mercedes-AMG GT3[32] in the Pirelli World Challenge. Previously, he raced in the Radical Cup and Sports Car Club of America endurance events.[34] He is currently driving for CrowdStrike Racing.`

@GossiTheDog Perspective, man. Depends on which end of the telescope you're looking thru. 🔭
