And as more progressive-leaning people showed their distaste for GenAI, Meta started to moderate hate speech even less on its platforms, pushed the right even more, etc.
The “most charismatic” application of AI, said Ellison, would pertain to electronic health records, which would let doctors monitor best practices in far flung places. For instance, a doctor in Indian River reservation would be able to see how a doctor at Memorial Sloan Kettering would a treat a patient, he said.
Do we really want to give a black box unfettered access to everyone's medical records? It's a privacy and security nightmare waiting to happen.

As someone who works in a HIPAA oriented field in biotech: yeah. There are many excellent reasons why we are Absolutely Not Allowed to point an LLM at any PHI/PII database. But fuck the rules I guess, because that’s the era we’re entering. All gas no brakes. What could go wrong.

It’s not AI. It’s a large language model.
Sorry - pet peeve of mine. I’ll call it AI when it’s actually achieved GAI capabilities.
The question is absolutely clear: How can we get rid of paying people for work?
It’s a two-step approach: There are the low-skill jobs that could get replaced by machines, with desperate people flooding the markets, putting downward pressure on peoples’ incomes, and there are the high-skill jobs where currently not enough staff is available - at least when one does not want to pay suitable rates.
Why did you cross out a word and then write a synonym right afterwards? I'd put an /s here, but well...
When politicians talk about "the country", whatever country they happen to be in charge of, they almost always mean the parts of the country that they think are important to the total exclusion of everything else. Or what they've been bribed to think of as important. Either way, that usually means "the rich, the important, and their agendas".
Likewise "the economy" is "the rich people's yacht fund".

Perhaps less so if in a couple months it turns out that the contract went to one of Musk’s companies. Having a large amount of money to spend on something intangible can also be very useful.

What an unexpectedly deep bit of research this threw me into.
In 2005 a company called Fortress Credit loaned the Trump Organization $130 million dollars for the construction of trump tower that it later ‘forgave.’ Fortress Credit is owned by Fortress Investment Group, which is owned by SoftBank.
Additionally, SoftBank tried to engage with Trump in 2017 under a similar scheme, where they offered to invest in the U.S.’ IT infrastructure as part of some deal they were cooking up with Trump.
Incidentally, in 2019, New Fortress Energy, also part of the constellation of companies, was granted a peculiar permit to transport LNG over rail lines within populated areas - something that is generally not done due to the danger involved.
So that’s just, you know, the corruption cherry on top of this shit cake.
So now, we have SoftBank, OpenAI, and Oracle - companies whose CEO’s ‘bent the knee’ announcing a half a trillion dollar investment into an all knowing AI medical black box that the government (and its corporate sponsors) intend to use to track all your medical information.
Yes. Centralized government tracking of your periods, ladies. If this system ever works, the government will know if you’ve ever told a medical professional that you use illicit drugs, even drugs that may be legal at the state level, but illegal federally. The government will know if you’re on antidepressants - something that JFK Jr. wants to send people to re-education/labor camps for being on. They will know if you’ve ever told a doctor that you’re not CIS or straight.
And we know that SoftBank can’t afford to invest that much. They took out a $4 billion loan 2 years ago, and then asked for another 1.1 billion shortly after. Even Elon Musk is saying they don’t have the money.
So they’re going to invest some money in something, get very overpriced government contracts for the operation of it, and use a fraction of the overages from that to ‘invest’ further until their obligation is fulfilled or forgiven – in much the same way that telcos fleeced the government to build out broadband and never did.
It’s a bad deal for all of us, and the very best outcome for anyone is that it will never work.
Because if it does work, we will lose our medical privacy, and we lose control of any data we’ve ever shared with medical professionals - one of the few areas in U.S. citizen’s lives where there are privacy laws to keep them safe.
Oh, and as evidenced by the government losing control of the backdoors they implanted into telco companies, this data will be hacked. And having all of it in one place will make it a big target.
So it’s not just the U.S. government that will know about your business, but so will the U.S.’s foreign rivals.
Great fucking strategy. Let’s make sure all our health data is accessible, not improve the health system, and just hope that none of the people whose information you can freely and easily buy online due to lax privacy laws have expensive medical bills and a sensitive job.

You are now picturing Trump’s face inside the stargate from Stargate SG-1.
You are welcome.
If only, the event horizon would be lethal.
Hmm a stargate is a great sci-fi guillotine come to think of it.
Just send him offworld and close the iris.
I would love to turn it off just as he sticks his head through the threshold
Ohhh so thats why all the Big Tech people gave him so much money!
And as more progressive-leaning people showed their distaste for GenAI, Meta started to moderate hate speech even less on its platforms, pushed the right even more, etc.
Are eggs gonna get cheaper now?
Also: what the actual fuck.
You won’t need eggs when the Goa’uld will give you all the sustenance your body desires.
baak baak?
And so it has started. The endless series of headlines that all begin with the same boring name.
I’m going to downvote every single one.
You do you can block posts with the name Trump in then?
I thought it was the onion
No just the USA for the next 4 years.
You will live in fear because you’ll never be sure until you read the article.
First Trump term? Better get used to it or prepare to not browse the internet for a while. It will get much dumber from here.
AI project… Manufacturing jobs… I see what you did there. 😉
The bots will do all the fun stuff, so humans can work 12-16 hour ultra-hardcore shifts in factories owned by the American oligarchs.
This sounds like a really bad idea:

Dystopian for the little shitters but an absolute dream world for the rich. Guess who’s driving this ship?
Sigh.
The grift continues.
So we’re gonna stop in flation by checks notes spending half a trillion dollars of money we don’t have. Smh
At the very least he needs congressional approval.
I have bad news for you.
Take your AI and flush it down the toilet where it belongs.
Nvidia is gonna get the lion share of that $500bn, you know… Don’t be stupid.
We be prosperin.
Flation be gone
