Trump wants us to call the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America.

In response I am going to properly pronounce it the Gulf of Meh-he-co.

#Trump #FuckTrump #GulfOfAmerica

We should be clear: the rightists want to “pwn the libs” and that means massacres of undesirables. The fascists are going to use the military to kill their fellow Americans before long. They will not react to such events with contrition but with relish. There will be no compunction from that quarter of the populace, only gleeful bloodlust for a long while to come. In the face of such carnal cruelty the actual liberals will be nonplussed at best - useless.

#WWJD?

According to Matthew 25:41-45, he'd tell the #Republicans who support this bill to go to hell.

I no longer consider myself #Christian, but even I know that #Jesus taught that you should feed the hungry, heal the sick, be kind to the stranger, etc...

Which is the opposite of what the GOP is doing with Trump's #BigBeautifulBill which takes #food from the hungry, denies #healthcare to the sick & imprisons the stranger.

“We are witnessing the first stages of Trump’s police state. …

History shows that once an authoritarian ruler establishes the infrastructure of a police state, that same infrastructure can be turned on anyone.”

... but impossible to achieve when the ruling party is the party of the one you want to remove.

I imagine a future where children, raised by their AIA, will become adults relying their advisor for everything. Every little thing that comes up in life they will ask AIA and, trusting it must know the right answer, do whatever it says.

And so it becomes the reverse of our consciousness moving to robots. Rather our bodies will become the robot's body, using us to do whatever it wants. The brain is like a muscle - if you don't use it then it becomes weak. People will become incapable of thinking for themselves. We become a world of robot-controlled human bodies.

Resist.

I know some believe that AI/robots will eventually become us - our evolutionary destiny. We will eventually move our consciousness into the robot's 'brain' and thus live forever. I don't buy that idea since I don't think consciousness can be moved, however I do think of it another way.

They talk about the near future when we will all have little AI assistants (AIA) that will be our constant companions, answering any question we have. Your children will grow up being taught by their AIA, as well as it being a companion.

#AI #dystopia

#America. Forget about all the Trump vs Musk nonsense. You are being occupied by your monied elites.
The 1% are buying then next 9%, fooling 33% of the remaining 90% who will all be totally screwed 100%. #USA

#salami = harm people on scale

this so called #AI is just a way to harm people, first your data is stolen, your copyright is violated, second data workers are exploited, third massive waste of resources to fourth produce crap output and claim it is artificial intelligence and thereby more trustworthy than your organic intelligence to inflict such more harm on society ; on each and every one of us

The Propublica story on the DOGE dork who used a bad LLM to find VA contracts to cancel is a shining example of how fascist governments get going. The dude says he knew the model sucked, he knew it was making errors, and he knew that he didn’t have the expertise to do the job, but he did it anyway. He was fine killing our veterans because it just another opportunity for him to make a buck and pad his CV. Not a fucking thought for the patients he was harming.
