Today in 1968, 55 years ago: Martin Luther King Jr. is assassinated by James Earl Ray at a motel in Memphis, Tennessee.

“We can do so here. Let's enjoy a long AI summer, not rush unprepared into a fall.”
The only people having an “AI summer” are the billionaires & tech bros. Workers are being exploited, artists are talking about committing suicide, and gig workers are struggling to pay any bills.
