An internal Microsoft strategy document says that the plan for its just-announced “Scout” personal assistant AI is to “make people addicted” to the tool before rolling out additional functionality.

The document notes that “security and compliance” are important things to figure out moving forward.

"How magnificent
the funeral song our children or contemporaries
will write for us, a song they will make by
taking our obituary and Facebook posts,
plus random quotes from our algorithm,
and feeding them into Chat
or Gemini
or Claude.
The tears that will fall in the face of such
sanitary sweetness!"

Verboden gifresten in je thee, rijst en kruiden?! 🤨

Pesticiden die hier verboden zijn, mogen wél door Europa worden geproduceerd en geëxporteerd naar boeren buiten de EU. Deze gifstoffen belanden daar op gewassen en komen via import gewoon weer terug in onze supermarkten 🤷‍♀️

Foodwatch ontdekte dat 49 van de 64 geteste alledaagse supermarktproducten vol met gifresten zaten. In 45 producten zaten zelfs pesticiden die in de EU verboden zijn. Bizar! Hier moet zsm een einde aan komen!

Just seems like if you're a shitbag oil executive, who has a button that starts an oil war, and if that war goes poorly you get more money for your oil, and if that war goes well you get more oil which is in turn worth money, there's not much incentive for you to not press that button as often as fucking possible and wow I think that's literally how to explain US foreign policy in its entirety after the fall of the Berlin Wall actually.
