Ew
Who knows. Could be techno-communism ran by impartial AI for maximum social welfare or could be techno-feudalism and you better pray to the right trillionaire
Worst post of all time
Congrats

Lmaooo


NGL, I want them to put everything into AI.
(for personal reasons)
Especially if dumbfucks like MTG are against it.

The Trump administration is preparing to cancel a large swath of federal funding for California, an effort which could begin as soon as Friday, according to multiple sources.
Agencies are being told to start identifying grants the administration can withhold from California. On Capitol Hill, at least one committee was told recently by a whistleblower that all research grants to the state were going to be cancelled, according to one of the sources familiar with the matter.
CNN has reached out to the White House for comment.
ADVERTISING
President Donald Trump has long made Democratic-led California a target.
Just last month, he threatened to withhold federal funding from California over a transgender athlete’s participation in a sporting event — the latest example of the president trying to use funding as leverage to enact his agenda. The administration recently cut $126.4 million in flood prevention funding projects, and Trump repeatedly went after the state’s handling of devastating wildfires earlier this year. The president and California Gov. Gavin Newsom have also publicly feuded for years.
Higher education in the state could be hit hard by Trump’s move. GOP Rep. Darrell Issa of California, who said he was unaware of the imminent grant cancellations, told CNN he recently met with university representatives who were concerned about the future of their funding.
“Every university, every research organization, pretty much I saw them passing through here the last two days” Issa said.
Issa told CNN his message to the fearful university representatives was, “We’re going to advocate for essentials, but I sent them back and said come to me with specifics. Come to me with the grant and the justification, and I’ll advocate for that. But I’m not going to advocate for no cuts; you just get more money every year. That’s how we got in this problem.”

California has the chance to do the funniest thing (they should stop paying federal taxes)

congrats, you managed to be a bigger dumbfuck than MTG with this post

How so?
How so?
What's the upside of having AI unregulated at a state and federal level for 10 years and what are your "personal reasons" for wanting it to be that way? As Palantir collaborates with our govt to further expand its AI-powered surveillance network, elite-owned news orgs start to sideline writers in favor of generated text and misinformation becomes easier to create and disseminate, what is there to gain by letting these companies do whatever they want, even more so than they already are? The explicit desire to replace of human labor cannot be understated either.
Love when non tech idiots try to talk about what they don't know
Brother I’m in a stem phd and I use machine learning for almost all my projects. Where AI is atm if we let it run wild get ready to have a bunch of completely broken tech that no one can fix
AI is also going to send your energy bills skyrocketing fyi the energy demand projected by ai and data centers the rest of this decade is insane. This level of energy demand spiking hasn’t been seen since the 70’s

I’m coming from a tech perspective, so AI writing code, developing tools, streamlining process etc. The general problem is our current ‘AI’ is just statistics on steroids, not actual AGI. So there’s no intelligent design. If you want to ask ChatGPT how do I use a python package to do this thing I want to do to my data, it’s pretty helpful. If you want ChatGPT to write your whole a***ysis pipeline it’s going to give you a bunch basically useless code that you can’t debug, or at best incredibly poorly designed code. Now extrapolate this to all the tech sectors we are going to get a bunch of really inefficient tools that no one understands or knows how to fix when they break
you "think they're s***" in the same way 35 year old marvel adults think the MCU is "shit" but still buys every new funko pop
were they not "shit" enough to not vote for despite 400k dead palestinians? time to admit you're just caught in a weird fandom. except politics are in fact not a game but real people with real lives.
