Billionaire investor whose company can't even get a grip on their security vulnerabilities says what?

The "move fast and break things" AHs ran without rails and now they want to put rails behind them and shift the financial burden of the AI bubble popping away from themselves.
The billionaire cofounder of Microsoft says, without restrictions, AI could 'cause a billion deaths' https://aje.news/fk9w3g

We name all the house centipedes in our house “Michelle”: by this tactic I converted my partner from moderate arachnophobia to tenderly looking after our little squad of Corner Spiders and Towel Michelles (they like getting lost in the bathroom)
They were Melvilles in my house for years due to an episode of the Rugrats

Two-thirds of NYC’s income growth since the pandemic went to the top 1%.

The richest 0.001% — about 50 families — saw their average income soar from $315 million in 2019 to nearly $600 million a year.

It’s time to build a city that works for everyone.

This Finnish guy has been teaching himself Sumerian, and sent a cuneiform tablet to the British Museum to check his progress.

They just emailed him that they've sent him something in the post.

I'm now thrilled and excited for a total stranger! Clay tablet mail!

Sometimes, when someone dies, what helps me is thinking about how wonderful it is that they were even alive in the first place.

Wild wording. It’s not like getting a clearance is some optional side quest for the especially keen.

EXCLUSIVE: Trump’s closest aide, Natalie Harp, declined multiple times over more than a year to seek a routine security clearance normally obtained by West Wing staffers to work at the White House, sources tell MS NOW.
Trump aide Natalie Harp worked at the White House without security clearance for a year
The close aide to the president, known to filter much of the information reaching the commander-in-chief, ultimately relented in recent months after pressure from White House staff.

DO NOT WATCH THREADS. It makes The Day After look like Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
I had to Google it. Apparently there's a British movie called Threads that came out in 1984.

I was like, "there's an app called The Day After?"
