Teenagers don't drive because Mom is their Uber driver! Plus it's better that teenagers don't drive -- often they can't get insurance until 25

The copy editors were the first to be cut as revenues plunged for newspapers and magazines … a crucial mistake that significantly affected quality and accuracy. Artificial Intelligence and its hallucinations won’t make things better, imho.

"ChatGPT is fast-tracking the commodification of the human spirit by mechanising the imagination. It renders our participation in the act of creation as valueless and unnecessary...We should fight it tooth and nail, for we are fighting for the very soul of the world." Nick Cave

The progress of General Artificial Intelligence is really about the distillation of whatever is human that remains... my concern is that there might not be much there that's unique or worth much

My favorite feature of Artificial Intelligence systems is their "hallucinations" -- creating outright fake facts. I hope this mysterious feature continues unchanged -- we should never trust AI systems 100% -- human intelligence and critical reasoning is a vital layer

All these trade tariffs are great for the planet. People will buy less, which conserves resources, reduces carbon footprints, and less pollution. It's a massive blow against consumerism. Unsustainable, unfortunately, I doubt Trump will want to be known as the Green President

Big corporations and Big Pharma run the government so is this what they wanted?: Unpredictable variable sky high tariffs to boost their sales, and strict immigration controls so that labour costs rise. All that money spent on lobbying over the years has bought little influence

The combination of tariffs and inflation will save me a lot of money because fewer things will be affordable — that’s great for the environment (bad for our economy)
