Jan 14, 2025 SAN FRANCISCO, CA - A manifesto signed by the CEOs of several large technology companies is calling for strict regulation of AI to preserve job security and salaries, to "avoid unacceptable social damage", says the document.

This surprising attitude reversal may have been spurred by OpenAI's recent release of ZuckGPT, an AI persona with all the attributes of a modern CEO -- such as incompetence, arrogance, callousness, narcissism, and fascist ideology.

I see. But I am afraid that nothing about politics, especially in Latin America, can be "light-hearted"...

In 2025 Tesla will release Full Self Driving and the Robotaxi and Optimus for home and its sales will grow 50% and Starship will go to the Moon and Mars and sales of the Cybertruck will take off and MyPillow will order a 100 Tesla Semis and the Boring Co will dig 1000 miles under Dallas and Trump will give Musk $20 billion to build a Washington-NY Hyperloop and you can get a Neuralink implant and SolarCity and

You left out the fact that in April 1964 Brazil's democratically elected government was deposed -- with full and explicit US support -- by the military, who remained in power for the next 20 years. Until the Argentinian war for the Falklands convinced the US that military dictatorships was not a good way to control Latin American countries, and they switched to a different method.

That puts a somewhat different light in the "US intervention" you have there.

@randahl

But surely Russia will let Trump keep half of Alaska in return. Why else would Trump agree to share what he wanted to have whole?

@ApproachingSteed

Actually it is called a Planetary Conspiracy.

Trump will close my school and let me drive dads car and give chicken nuggets to everybody and take my babysitter back to Mexico because she makes me go to bed when I dont want to.

Jan 11, 2025 SAN FRANCISCO,CA: Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted today that his motivation for the recently announced policy changes was seeing Elon Musk labeled as the most inept media company manager ever. "It really got on my nerves", said Mark. "I had to show the world that *I* am the top one. No one was impressed by the Metaverse, so I had to do something worse. It is early to tell whether it worked, but the early signs are encouraging."

The pardon covers any crimes that may have been or will be committed before Jan 20, 2028, and extends to all non-citizens who may be in or enter the US until then . "I believe that it is better to let a criminal go unpunished than to unjustly punish an innocent person", he concluded.

That is the same thing, no? It is how Enéas got a dozen members of his party into Congress, even though they got practically no votes. And Tiririca pulled controversial PF delegado Protógenes.
