Excited to be included on @TIME's list of the TIME100 AI of 2025! Grateful to the @AINowInstitute for supporting my work on addressing the safety revisionism of AI in defense and safety-critical contexts where safety has been obscured with little to no accountability. #TIME100AI

Especially with autonomous vehicles, weapons, use of AI in safety-critical applications like nuclear. To find out that some 23 year old with a history degree "proved" why AI is safe on a substack, then that being adopted by a gov. Would take a lifetime to dispel these claims.

It's abysmal that our governments are captured by a bunch of X shitposters with substacks who "prove" things by pointing to cherry-picked or disproven corporate claims while yelling "abundance" and "build more!" with not an ounce of expertise.

Raz Segal: “the genocide in Gaza is far from over” because it has become a model of permanent settler colonial elimination in a world shaped by the brutality of force. From “never again” to “again and again.”

We live not in a post-Holocaust world of ‘Never Again’ but in the same world that led to the Holocaust, a world of ‘Again and Again’

It’s so cute the way these guys pretend they are programming
Essential techniques for mastering the Nano Banana Pro. Upload any image to Gemini and instruct it to "convert the image into a JSON prompt, including the size and details." It will then output a prompt for reproducing the image, so you can just modify only the parts you want

The IDF kills children
Two brothers have been killed in an Israeli drone strike on Gaza. Their uncle said they had been gathering firewood for their wheelchair-bound father. Read more about the incident 🔽 https://t.co/SN2Iv94DhA

And this is also exactly why the deference of nuclear regulation and oversight from the NRC to the DOD is particularly dangerous. These are political and partial actors who do not have public safety in mind.
I want you to understand that while news media and politicians were fearmongering every day about shoplifting in SF (while property crime was *down*), THIS was happening: "the inhalation of one-millionth of an ounce will cause cancer with a virtual 100% statistical certainty."

If you've spoken to any western military personnel, this has been known for quite sometime. Unsurprising given the track record of Oculus within the military.

My latest in @972mag reveals how Palantir and Dataminr are involved in Trump's "peace plan" for Gaza Past efforts to bolster regional accord have only sharpened Israeli control over Palestinians This one is poised to do the same, only with US tech https://t.co/rWEyadnZR4

The presence of Palantir and Dataminr at the new U.S. military compound in Israel offers a glimpse of how tech companies are cashing in on the genocide.

If only Palestinians had long ears and hooves, maybe then they’d qualify for rescue.
Germany has welcomed at least 8 donkeys evacuated from Gaza. But it is delaying the entry of Palestinian children in need of medical evacuation.

Amnesty finds no ‘meaningful change’ in Gaza ‘with the genocide continuing’ desp Oct ’. Aid agencies corroborate our reporting in Jordan that Israel continues to block lifesaving aid despite their claims to the contrary @MedicalAidPal 🧵

Conditions for Palestinians in Gaza show no significant change, with no clear evidence to indicate that Israel’s intent has changed

There's a word for a "compound" that you move into but cannot leave
The US is moving forward with building "model compounds" for Palestinians to live in on the IDF-held side of the Yellow Line in Gaza, but the structures will only be temporary, residents would be vetted by Israeli intelligence, and those moving in would never be allowed to leave.

Compromised supply chains, whether from AI agents to the manufacturing of mobile devices, have now become a feature rather than a bug in an attempt to bypass protections against a surveillance state.
A mobile phone exploded in the hand of a Gaza resident. This is the second case in two days. There is a malfunction in the mobile devices that recently entered Gaza.

The initial report had valid but also very dubious claims that made me cautious about the final report. As I feared, there are idealogical and unsubstantiated claims made throughout, especially regarding AI and Safety which we address in our recent report: https://t.co/yJ4kI9LkCa
Britain needs nuclear power. Our nuclear projects are the most expensive in the world and among the slowest. Regulators and industry are paralysed by risk aversion. This can change. For Britain to prosper, it must. Earlier this year, the Prime Minister appointed me to lead a

Israel has bombed Beirut for the first time since June, claiming to target a Hezbollah member in the suburb of Dahiyeh. It's the latest violation of a ceasefire Israel signed with Hezbollah a year ago, which Israel has broken with near-daily attacks on southern Lebanon.

They continue to demolish all buildings in Gaza and call it a "partition" plan. Colonization, ethnic cleansing, and genocide all occurring with no push back. Just devastating.
The United States has divided Gaza into two colors: Green represents the areas controlled by Israel, and Red represents the areas where the people of Gaza live. The areas currently occupied by the Israeli army include my city, Beit Hanoun, where I live. Because of this, neither

Israel has been relentlessly bombing Lebanon and Gaza— and in the West Bank Israeli militias and military continue to wage a war on Palestinians. There is no ceasefire instead Israel is now able to kill as many Palestinians and Arabs as it can without any confrontation, without

Well. Alright then.

That's absolutely unbearable. Why on earth is this allowed to happen?
Netanyahu said today that the Rafah crossing, when it opens, it will be for “exit” from the Gaza Strip. No one will be allowed to return.
