Of all the things to turn into a nation-v-nation contest, saving our shared atmosphere is the silliest.

Why?

Telegram doesn’t have much afaik

‘Social media’ as a concept is a USA invention. Facebook pioneered getting people addicted to social media and using that addiction to harvest their data.

Everybody and everything has Russian ties of some sort, tis a big country.

Ok, your BBC link has persuaded me to do a 180° on my opinion

A critical mass is needed for major political changes.

For a referendum that’s 50%+1, but for organic political changes I’ve seen, like when my country legalised abortion or gay marriage or stopped The Troubles, you need a broad consensus.

It’s hard to quantify a broad consensus, but it’s certainly not 2 opponents to each proponent.

One third is a small minority as political support goes.

what the fuck are you talking about

“Social media”

Electoralism works?

“The war is over. Russia has won. There is no Ukrainian offensive anymore, but the White House and the American media have to keep the lie going,“ a senior US intel official told Hersh. “The truth is if the Ukrainian army is ordered to continue the offensive, the army would mutiny. The soldiers aren’t willing to die any more, but this doesn’t fit the B.S. that is being authored by the Biden White House.”

But in fact the USA has given them uninterrupted support for 2½ years and Russia is winning.

How would Putin not get a positive outcome in Ukraine do you reckon?

Can we see the original ad? Is it photo or video?

“Throughout the war, U.S. officials have assessed that President Vladimir V. Putin is loath to expand the war beyond Ukraine’s borders.”

thanks for your input

2 and 3 are both posing questions

• How could AI even be applied?!?!?

• How could AI even be improved?!?!?

as though the implication were that these are unanswerable questions

when they’re actually easily answerable

2: it can be applied to logistics, control of fusion energy, drug-discovery pipelines, lots of things that could soon amount to a trillion dollars

3: it can be improved by combining LLMs with neural-symbolic logic and lots of other things extensively written about

I assume the Goldman Sachs report is more intelligent than this summary makes out. Coz the summary is just saying we should throw our hands up in despair at well-studied questions that a lot of work has gone into answering.

If AI is a trillion dollar investment, what trillion dollar problem is it solving?

If you could increase the productivity of knowledge-workers 5%, that’s worth a trillion

3. AI won’t work because of the American power grid

Makes no sense. Why would one random country having an underdeveloped power grid stymie AI?

I’m not an AI gal, but those are obvious bad points.
