It also won’t occur to him that just because something happened in a different country, doesn’t mean we have to accept it here. We have a Constitution, that’s the rule book, not some nation on the other side of the world.
It boggles my mind that there are still Americans who cling to legalism as some kind of saviour, even after all the months of proof that it is absolutely no barrier to the fascists doing exactly what they want.
Ironically enough that was also the exact moment when the terrorists won the War on Terror.
Of course. It is a classic.
Yeah, as long as wormhead is in charge it is all of them.
Yeah, the media has been absolutely hopeless about this. Sanewashing and legitimising these two criminals, and treating this as if it was something actually legit.
No it isn’t. These “negotiations” are completely irrelevant, and are just two criminals colluding. They should both be arrested on the spot.
And also Trump is a Russian asset.
What’s the black specks floating around in it?
Apples was used as well. And they definitely can be stored for a year under the right conditions.
But funnily enough scurvy was also called “the English disease” in some languages.
Your comment presupposes that there will be some kind of back to normal in 50 years, which is unfortunately not going to be the case. Climate change accelerates, economic and political crisisl follows, and these kinds of populist movements are going to thrive in that kind of environment.
Climate change will not have stopped in 50 years, on the contrary.
Racism and other kinds of bigotry mostly.
Blatant election tampering erodes confidence in democracy? Who could have seen that development?
Trump isn’t doing this alone. He can only do this with the blessing of the Republicans and their oligarch masters. And they are all making unimaginable fortunes from doing it, which seems to me to be more of an incentive for them doing it.
No it won’t. There are plenty of people who will keep putting money into it because it is very profitable for them to do so. LLMs can create disinformation more convincing and at a rate no human can compete with. So scammers, political interests and other wealthy organisations will only keep funding it more and more.
The regular consumer is not the one who is going to decide whether this is a fad or not. It is being used, and will be used to a much higher degree in the future, whether we want it to or not.
And that is just one side of it. The other, and arguably even worse, is that the content being uploaded to the internet will become largely AI generated. AI generated content can be created at rates no humans can compete with, and there are plenty of incentives, economical as well as political, for malicious interests to flood any human made content with AI created disinformation.
That is also why the people hoping that AI is a bubble which will burst are wrong. There are plenty of interested parties which will keep it alive for very profitable reasons, even if it is the opposite of what LLMs were originally claimed to be created for.
And I highly doubt they even realise it. They are fucking idiots after all.
Put it in the pile of big deals.
There was a very very small window that America wasn’t a joke, and it ended like 80 years ago.
What was so fantastic about the US 80 years ago?
Yes.
