He should’ve gone months ago. It’s been obvious for a while now that, rightly or wrongly, a huge chunk of the electorate despises him.

I guess United Healthcare haven’t learned their lesson yet.

We’re yet again in a world where punching fascists is deemed unacceptable by many.

What’s Russian for “you chumps are losing, that’s what’s going on.”

No thanks, I’m not a creep. I can’t see how glasses equipped with cameras will ever not be skeezy.

It’s not surprising to see names like Sam Harris and Steven Pinker on there.

What problem is this solving?

Apparently there are some rubes with too much money.

Sure but what if I already hate Apple and this article validates my feelings?

I heard someone describe LLMs as useful in the context of being handy plugins which tallies with what you’re saying. In certain situations they’re useful. The problem is that they’re being completely misrepresented and sold as being able to do things that they can’t do consistently or well so the hype and astronomical sums of money being thrown around is problematic.

Well there you go. Another argument in support of AI being not nearly as big of a deal as the fanboys would have people believe.

If you blame the users (e.g. Steve Job’s “you’re holding it wrong”) it rarely ends well.

It’s interesting that a country that was formerly based on the ideology of the power of the collective is also incredibly cynical. There’s no social contract, anyone trying to improve the lives of others is probably a scam artist, altruism is weakness, cruelty is admirable.

I suspect part of it is that every company wants to be the one to outlast the competition and become the de facto AI company everyone uses. They want to be the 90’s Microsoft of AI. To this end, they’re all setting fire to giant piles of money.

Maybe I’m wrong but even if one clear winner emerges, I don’t see AI becoming that big of a market. They’re trying the heroin dealer approach of giving away cheap or free product so they can get people hooked and then jack up the prices on a bunch of people who will lie, cheat, and steal to get their next fix. Except AI slop isn’t heroin, it’s just slop.

Slop that produces inaccurate results and then tells you it did no such thing.

It’s like he has some kind of anti-gaydar. Wait, can gaydar be jammed? Maybe the Iranians are hitting back with advanced stealth tech which prevents the target from knowing how gay they’re acting.

Good. Not a single part of this from the players, to the managers, to the owners, to the broadcast rights holders need money more than a regular working person does.

Yeah, about that:

Implicit in this shitbag’s threat is that they have a government they’re happy with right now. Another reason Starmer has to go. You can’t be on the side of working people and the banks at the same time.

I’d rather have neither. Nuclear’s time has passed.

I think a lot of this goes back to the Clinton and Blair “third way” nonsense. They tried to thread the needle of convincing working people that they were on their side while also reassuring capital that their wealth hoarding would be allowed to continue. You can’t serve two masters but that doesn’t stop them trying and Starmer is currently doing very badly in part because of their prevaricating, he’s just not trustworthy.

Meanwhile electorates get more polarized as more and more people realize they’ve been hoodwinked and jump to very different conclusions - could it be that the wealthy are not willing to pay their fair share or could it all be the fault of some immigrants?

When it comes to selling off public assets like power, water, phones and public transport, Labour have nothing on the Thatcher era Tories.
