AI is one of the most horrific risks to human civilization in history. NOT because some imaginary super intelligent AI would take over the world, but because Big Tech CEOs are using generative AI to utterly destroy the ability of anyone to trust information. These billionaire CEOs -- who Trump accurately says are "kissing his ass" -- are "poisoning the well" of our information society, while decimating their workforces, screwing society, and smiling all the way to the bank.
Herb Alpert at 90, about a month ago. Fun Fact: When he released his first album "Whipped Cream and Other Delights" in 1965, he (at least initially) did not like the cover photo, which became incredibly iconic (yeah, I have this original vinyl album). Even more interesting is that at the time despite the nomenclature "Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass", there actually was no such group. After the smash success of the album, he rushed to form one, calling on the talents of L.A. session musicians (e.g. "The Wrecking Crew") who were (largely unknown to the public at the time) performing the music for an array of pop singers and classic tracks.
You're in the British military in the 1980s before the fall of the Berlin Wall. You need to drive from West Germany to West Berlin. But Berlin is entirely within the Soviet sector, meaning you must drive through East Germany to reach West Berlin. Here are your instructions: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YUJ7GbxWGoM
Utter idiot: Hegseth boasts about killing "woke" Biden Pentagon program for women -- it was actually Trump's, and Trump's current Homeland Security secretary and Secretary of State!
Trump's program, sponsored in Congress by two of his current cabinet members! Hegseth is a dangerous buffoon. -L
I think we should follow the Vatican Pope selection tradition for our presidential elections, just modified for our political parties. Blue smoke or Red smoke.
So it looks like there's a really good chance that idiot Trump flapping his vile mouth has successfully reversed sentiments in Canada and will have pushed the liberals back to victory from a presumed massive loss to Trump-loving conservatives according to polls just months ago. Keep your fingers crossed.
#Google is super efficient when it comes to locking innocent users out of their Google accounts, causing them to lose all their email, photos, and other data. They won't even listen to cost effective suggestions for fixing this. They just don't care about those users. But when it comes to stopping OBVIOUS dangerous phishes being sent out from #Gmail, they play helpless and flood the Internet with them. Disgusting.
Pretty sad to see how some generative AI firms seem to promote their products as tools for unproductive, slacker employees to pretend that they're actually earning their pay.
