I am very pessimistic!
Most of my life I was either apolitical or even conservative. About ten years ago I started to become active in the Texas Democratic Party and ran headlong into voting irregularities by both the computer voting company and my county government. This started an involuntary slide to the left ( true left , not liberalism) as I encountered a brick wall in my weak efforts to make the ballot counting in my area more transparent.
I fully believe most computer ballot counting is not reliable and thus there will be a forever dance between this democratic - republican switching.
But the way out of this has not been seen in this country. I am not sure there is a realistic escape from the above, and fully expect truly bad gop governments in the future which will alternate with Democratic Party governments
This situation is a good test for both intent and realism over the next two years among the politically minded on social medias.
A good way to fall short is to insist on letter writing campaigns, or say it’s politically necessary for top democrats to accept ICE.
More specifically I am looking to see how this changes political movements, if at all, when and if the top democrats fail to do much over the next years
I’m honestly proud I know this reference without looking it up. Feel educated

AI overhype
I’ve known at least one who has; of course it was for different purposes, outcomes and all that.
But it’s very possible, and realistic.
Which is what makes the joke funny


I’m curious if this individual is very wealthy or not?
I never liked his books


This happened due to thousands of qualified personnel being cut out of the decision making loops.
So while it’s an AI issue, it’s really not.
The current thieves and thugs running America would have done equally bad things if AI were not there.
They make money by removing witnesses to various illegal activities; and that means important decisions are made by rather stupid people who do not understand much, who would use astrology instead, if not for AI


Most danger is by stupid people with too much power. Details can change
59.467% of all people think they leave worthwhile comments


I’ve long thought the primary reason that it is attacked in many states, is that it’s hard to skew the results using hidden methods.
In fact, in several states, it’s the only honest ballot counting there is; when the only other option is using a privately run counting system that flunks United Nations testing


This boom will go bust, because most of it is worthless. Then it will be bailed out by governments.
It will be the greatest transfer of wealth from the average citizen in the history of humans, and future historians will remember this primarily as a scam and theft
Is this real? So hard to decide these days
Like many human endeavors, it has a good side and a bad side. This meme seems to concentrate on its worse qualities: unchecked capitalism without social safety nets. And that is what is promoted by the modern fascists
When the actual fascist movement started in Italy, Mussolini almost called his movement capitalism because it promoted a controlled form of capitalism. Run by cronies of the state.
And while modern American fascism has a broad protection streak, where only a small amount of wealthy in the USA should control goods, it still mostly honors the worst of the global economy.


I don’t know about this commissioner’s religion, politics or possible failings. But I would vote for him
I once invented a made up technology to hastily write a paper. It got a C
I did not need AI to do this


I do not use AI to code; but I have been programming for two generations now.
I’ve taken a few breaks in that time, and switched technologies at least ten times also, and it’s very easy for me to forget a lot.
Programming is like any skill, it requires constant practice.
Am I a good programmer? Probably not that skilled, but I’ve written over a million lines of code and have run the gamut of architecture from: “Break this large file into 500 lines each, now we call that as a function” to “all numbers are object oriented” to “if it works great”
I’m really confused by the law here. AI agents are not subject to many intellectual property agreements or prior publications.
Is this outcome here simply because the author of the paper did not have enough money ?
