"We can't give you healthcare because we won't make enough profit."
That is the entire business model. They make billions by deciding what they won't cover. It’s fundamentally broken.
Listen to the full rant now.

Remember the AI hype? The financial sector is quietly melting down. Billions invested, but will tech deliver? Business leaders are asking, "what the f*** is going on?" Is this a bump or is the bubble popping? #AI #Investment #BubbleWatch #FinancialNews #FriendsYouWishYouHad

WIth clankers doing the job, how long is it until they write themselves in to the action. Would Smackdown be better? Could it get worse? (But hey, at least the WWE/TKO can now get a bigger share of those 25 thousand dollar tickets you smelly poors can't afford)

This isn't the dot-com bubble; it’s the Industrial Revolution. We're investing trillions in AI, prioritizing profit over public interest. This model is flawed against global competitors. #AI #Economy #Capitalism #IndustrialRevolution #GenX

A nationwide backlash to AI data centers is brewing.
And for good reason: while AI enriches Big Tech CEOs and props up the stock market, data centers are sucking up communities’ water and power.
When the AI bubble bursts, the rest of us will be stuck holding the bag. Be warned.

Are you starting to sound like an AI at work? You've heard the precise, polite, and "kiss-assy" language of ChatGPT—but we're arguing that style is just a hallmark of modern corporate culture. We're talking about why AI's language is seeping into our daily communication, and how to spot it.

We were talking about how easily people get fooled by fake videos, and it turns out, our reaction is different than our parents. Boomers are fine with being fooled and then moving on, but if you're Gen X, you take it personally. What do you think? Do you feel the same way?
