I don't have to have an opinion on this. Opinion is the mind-killer. Opinion is the brain-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my opinion. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the opinion has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

the Algorithm is serving up more portions of hot fresh psychopathy
some people have little hellmouths following them around and at the end of the day it doesn't matter if it's deliberate or accidental or oppression or what, you need to stay the fuck away and it's tiresome

"Our AI Safety Institute writes the rules other countries follow."
Jun 13
This week the most advanced AI model on the planet got switched off by a foreign government. British researchers were studying it. British companies were testing it. British hospitals were piloting it. Not any more.
This isn't an AI story. It's the story of every industry we used to lead.
Britain has some of the best AI talent in the world. DeepMind was built here. Our AI Safety Institute writes the rules other countries follow. We have the researchers, the universities, the standards.
What we don't have is the power stations to run the data centres, the planning system to build them, or the industrial base to make the chips. So the work happens here and the value lands somewhere else. We invent. Others build. Others decide. Then we read about it on Saturday morning.
Same story as the kit our soldiers don't have. Same story as the factories we used to.
I spent nine months in government making this argument inside the room. I'll make it louder from outside.

The markings on the A-10s seen at RAF Lakenheath today offer an indication of what they did during the fight against Iran.

What would it require to enforce Piketty’s plan? About this matter, he is conveniently vague. Confiscating something on the order of 10% of world GDP and redirecting it through a newly created supranational body does not happen by asking nicely. You cannot restructure the global economy at that scale without a coercive apparatus that dwarfs anything in human history.
The mechanism must be authoritarian. It would require a world government with the power to tell billions of people which jobs they may and may not hold, what they may build, what they may eat and how many hours they are permitted to work.
And to what end? “Climate change” is an insufficient answer when Picketty’s entire edifice is built on a discredited foundation. The report relies on a baseline from the RCP8.5 climate scenario that projects Earth warming by as much as 4.8 degrees Celsius by 2100. But last month, the UN’s own climate panel officially retired RCP8.5 (always a high-end estimate) as “implausible.” A more central projection is about 2.7 C. Replies to Piketty’s X feed pointed this out immediately. His response, as far as anyone can tell, has been silence.
That leaves the inequality argument. Worldwide income inequality is nearing a 150-year low, but Piketty insists that radical redistribution of wealth is essential for the Global South. And where have billionaires and wealth been popping up fastest in recent decades? Embarrassingly, data from Piketty’s World Inequality Database confirms that it’s in South and Southeast Asia, as well as East Asia. These are the exact Global South regions that have spent recent decades rescuing hundreds of millions of people from poverty through market-directed economic growth.

It's important to understand that when Ezra Klein says something like this, it's prescriptive, not descriptive. He's not saying that people actually ask this, he's instructing his audience to talk about it. He's essentially a human balseraph, a lie demon.
It’s wild to me that progressive political types like @ezraklein live in a world where questioning whether one should have children because of climate change is a frequent topic of conversation. I’ve literally never heard anyone i Know say anything remotely like this. But it does help explain why conservatives are out-procreating progressives something like 2-1; the inevitable, political implications of this will be seen in another 20 years or so

He creates false realities by speaking them into existence, and traps his readers in them. Pure evil.

To be clear, I'm not saying that Ezra Klein is supernatural or that he has magickal powers above and beyond those conferred by speaking the right words to other people. But speaking the right words is already a very powerful kind of magick.
