Yea I tend to use "AI" as a term for generative AI, which I should stop cause of how broad it is. I definitely see the usefulness of machine learning models for research purposes. I haven't heard of how it's used in manufacturing and infrastructure though, interested in looking more into that.

I'm wondering what advantage, if any, does AI really give for a nation? All I've really seen is that it can make people in beauracratic jobs be a touch more productive, but these jobs are already bullshit to begin with and are not producing real value. All this is doing is reducing some of the costs so that companies can report a bit more profit for the quarter.

Then there's all the slop AI can produce which doesn't really mean anything for competitive advantage. And there's also "AI integration" in products that don't really need it. So yea unless some compelling use case for AI is discovered, I feel like it's another crypto.

Looking at some posts on libsky, they're coping hard and saying things like "it's fine, because on the inside Trump is really angry about being the only felon president, and it's gnawing at his insides". They're more delusional than MAGA

I've literally never heard anyone talking about hoeflation

Lol even he's becoming disillusioned

Crazy that it was written by a republican. Though republicans back in that era were much different than the ones today and I think even Herbert was quite unique among them.

Tfw Iran cares more about protecting Canada from American aggression than Canadian leaders

Trump anti-Zionist arc?

I doubt it. Netanyahu will just name one one of the pieces of land he stole in Syria after Trump again and he'll forget all about it and go back to glazing Israel.

Reminds me of an interview I was watching where Michael Hudson was talking about the issue of CPC members (or maybe he was just talking about wealthy Chinese) sending their kids to western schools and warned that this would mean they would learn western economics and bring those ideas back home

Kinda funny (sad) that insurance companies are the only ones who take climate change seriously cause it affects their bottom line

Exactly, paraphrasing from another tweet I saw: "Weird how these errors never happen when it's a weapons shipment for Israel"

So is there any chance we see any increase of interest in socialism? If not the US, maybe in EU or Canada? I was kinda hoping after Trump got elected liberals would stop hanging on to their failed ideology, but it seems it's just like 2016 again and they are only capable of being smug or huffing copium on how bad Trump can be.

It feels like they are getting more disillusioned as corps and billionaires are all backing Trump and the Democrat party is basically doing nothing about it (why would they), but I might be expecting too much out of them.
