I wrote this quickly at a bus stop and didn't realize it would go viral, or else I would have worded it better. But the point is that the media is too credulous about AI killing everyone in 10 years (how?) when climate change is killing people now and will only get worse (we know exactly how).
I resigned from ExxonMobil today. I spent the last three years doing fossil fuel extraction research at both BP and ExxonMobil. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing to maximize extraction while the window to act closes, and gambling with our lives. More below.

this is exactly what i think the “ai will end humanity” talk coming from silicon valley execs is all about. selling cybersecurity measures to protect you from what they might unleash
EXCLUSIVE: Sam Altman met with top power utilities to discuss ways to secure the electrical grid.

He also offered one possible solution to the cybersecurity risks: OpenAI’s own cyber services.

Jensen Huang just claimed the Singularity hit and we have achieved AGI.

So two years from now, when we don't have fusion power and intergalactic travel etc because The Singularity is a fantasy, I assume everyone will admit they've been had.

Not being a mark is praxis
if your instinct is to go "this person [that I have never heard of before today and whose words are being presented to me by nazis] is a Problem for the Left" you're either a mark or a wrecker

a lot of people want to believe that right-wing beliefs are rooted in some legitimate material grievance. that makes it easier to imagine that if we simply solved the material problem, they’d deradicalize. but they won’t, because they aren’t disillusioned, they’re just morons.
I know this is a common belief, but it’s not true. If people went anti-vaxx/MAHA because they were excluded from the medical establishment, we would see sky-high rates among poor people, minorities and the uninsured. We don’t.

Once you notice this, it's the most obvious double standard in the political press.

Democrats have to answer for the smallest voice even if it has no actual tie to them, but Republicans never have to answer for the insanely racist billionaire donor driving their entire party.
Democrats who have had absolutely nothing to do with Hasan Piker will be hounded about him, while Republicans who are directly benefitting from Musk funding will be asked about him in the most generic "money in politics" way, if at all.

It's bizarre but telling that the media pushes the "Dem candidates have an antisemitism problem" when Republican candidates are unironically doing the "my grandad died in world war 2 he fell out of a guard tower" joke.
NEWS: GOP candidate in NY-19 posted a photo of his grandfather in a full Nazi uniform, swastikas and all, on Veterans Day w/ the caption "I salute all who served." Oberacker sat on the GOP's antisemitism working group and already had to fire his campaign manager over the "I love Hitler" group chat.

There was a period there when poker was really big where guys loved to tell you about the bad beat they got or whatever. The river bro, I had it until the river. More recently it's about the 8 leg parlay that almost came in. No one gives a shit!

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling.

They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.

Again I will propose an Asimovian Three Laws Of Consumer Electronics:

1. The Device will do what I tell it to do.
2. When, and only when, I tell it to do it.
3. And nothing else.
An increasingly pervasive element of modern life is having a machine in your home or a phone in your hand that is constantly trying to do things that you do not consent to.
