That was the only article I could find about him too.
It gave plenty of examples of him trolling bigots, almost nothing about him being a journalist except something he did for a student paper as a teenager
It seems very likely that he was fucking around and got banned for trolling.
Investors may also be growing jittery about the “circular funding” at the heart of the AI industry, through which artificial intelligence firms finance one another.
On Monday, the Wall Street Journal reported that Nvidia was in discussions with OpenAI about providing $250bn (£188bn) for a massive datacentre project in Ohio. Backing from Nvidia, which has an investment grade credit rating, could make it less expensive to raise funding for the project.
Literally the only thing they have is circular funding…
The only people that can afford to build data centers, are the people selling chips to data centers…
That should set off alarm bells in any rational mind, because even after built, no one has a plan to monetize it.
There’s no path to long-term profits here, everyone not in the circle is just assuming they’ll be the first ones to decide to pull out.
If enough gets pulled, it makes the rest panic and there will be a crash.
It’s gonna happen, because there’s too much money at stake for investors to risk it. One day we’ll just hear that it’s over and have to deal with the mess.
The crux of the issue is in his head:
Israel = Jewish and Jewish = Israel
Same thing with Biden.
Israel spent literal generations conflating the two and making people think they were the same. It shouldn’t be surprising when elderly people act like they’re the same.
What’s important is making sure people that still have fully functional brains understand it’s bullshit. And use it as an example for how propaganda can effect people so we don’t fall for the same thing under a different topic.
Are people asking me, as someone with principles, to turn my back on my Jewish friends? That is not going to happen – it will never happen. From the beginning of my career, I wore the Star of David … I feel very connected to the Jewish people. I’m not necessarily connected to Israel. I don’t really have an opinion on that. But the mission of music is to unite people.”
He said, after shoving his uninformed opinion on Israel and it’s ongoing genocide against the Palestinian people down everyone’s throat…
Like, it doesn’t seem that he actually supports what’s happening, it’s more like he has no fucking idea what is happening.
He doesn’t even understand that Israel doesn’t control the Jewish people.
Saying Israel is committing a genocide only betrays your friends who support the genocide, it has fuck all to do with religion.
Palestine’s issues aren’t that the people living in Israel are Jewish, it’s that the people living in Israel don’t see Palestinians as humans. They could be Christians, Muslims, or Atheists and the Palestinians would still be upset they’re victims of decades long genocide.
That’s pretty much everyone’s response to genocide, it doesn’t matter why your people are a target, you just don’t want to be genocided.
nothing can be done about it.
Oh come on now…
The company that stole the data said they’d look into how the chatbot they’re trying to sell is able to steal from competitors.
They didn’t just do it
They did it publicly and bragged about it to raise stock before an IPO.
This is America, there is always something to be done to maximize shareholder returns…
I saw another video of a robot “ultimate fighting league” recently with humanoid bots.
The two clankers went for 100% roundhouse kicks and missed almost everytime, but when they fell down?
It didn’t look real, they were back on their feet perfectly in milliseconds. It was clear the kicks was just the only scripted move, but these bots have picked themselves up off the ground probably millions of times. So that’s the only thing they currently excel at.
Eventually they’re gonna be straight up ninjas.
It’s fucking stupid to wait until we can’t beat them to try and outlaw them. We need to act now before the oligarchs literally have an army of terminators.
We need to outlaw the bots and fix wealth inequality while we still have the numbers.
It’s not just flying drones.
I saw video of Ukraine using three tracked ground drones with machine guns in concert with multiple flying drones used to launch rockets to clear a house.
Russians were firing as they fled, but it literally doesn’t matter if you shoot a land drone, they’re mini tanks.
If/when AI is really running that shit, the oligarchs will stop pretending they think we’re the same species.
Do people realize how fucked we’d be right now if the US army was just machines who would follow any order incapable of disobeying?
Even if we had a utopian government guaranteed to always be just, someone could just hack it.
We need to make use/development of AI like this a major war crime while we still can.
JD is gonna merc him, blame Iran, and produce “instructions” that he claims are from trump telling everyone to love JD and vote for him without question.
He’s #1 target among his own voters too…
Bigfoot.
Like, there’s probably not any alive today. Probably not any in the last thousands years even.
But at some point in human history, that shit existed. Might even just be stories about gorillas that ancient hominids took out of Africa and kept telling afterwards.
For a stone age human, a silverback might as well been a mythical animal. And they’re deceptively quiet. Imagine just walking thru the forest and seeing a fucking Silverback standing 10 feet away staring at you.
That story would keep getting retold long after people forgot what a gorilla was.
Ever since the reddit migration, troll instances who already existed on the fediverse saw a shiny new plaything.
When their home instances became defederated, their users spun up new ones, and were welcomed with open arms under the assumption they were new.
That bought them access to admin channels, were they could socially manipulate legitimate admins of major instances.
People who know controlled relatively large social media platforms…
People who didn’t receive any training and may not have had the best social skills to begin with.
So, what I’m trying to say is, it’s not all that they’re radicalized in the sense that their views changed organically. They’re radicalized like people taken advantage of by FBI informants into “planning” an attack.
The people telling them to do this stupid shit don’t think it’s a good idea, they just want to burn it down to watch it burn.
