🔴AI and the Architecture of Anti-Intelligence The other day, I found myself at the center of an unexpected controversy. I suggested that large language models may not represent artificial intelligence at all, but something more disorienting, what I called anti-intelligence.

2/2 that it is the most important tool in is arsenal of influence. It is populist-friendly, and resistant to Ideology. Instead of pushing 'liberal democracy', pushing DOGE and 'equal trade' will be very powerful, almost irresitable. A new era beckons with obvious benefits to all

1/2 Just as Musk is the product of generous US state finance, the US state is the happy beneficiary of immense and advanced progress. He was untouchable under Obama/Biden. But now DOGE will be the best present to humanity as it is rolled out across the world as the US realise ..

Article 5: “The Parties agree that an armed attack against one or more of them in EUROPE or North America shall be considered an attack against them all;..” Unless Israel attack the country of Turkey, NATO is not compelled. Fighting Turkish forces in Syria is outside Europe.
Turkey ,like the United States is a member of NATO. Israel is not a member of NATO. If Israel attacks Turkey, the United States has a treaty obligation to attack Israel. This is gonna get really interesting

Eye-watering slap in the face insight.
In this new paper we calculate the unequal exchange of labour between the global North and global South. The results are quite staggering. You'll want to look at this... 🧵 https://t.co/fEbCmRZuyJ

🇬🇧💶 The UK is a poor country with a lot of very rich people. The average person in the UK will soon be worse off than the average Pole or Slovenian. Britain has actually been in a state of decline since the 80s, how did this happen? 1/13 🧵

You have no idea how close I am to making a Black Hebrew Israelite video. The only reason I haven't yet is out of compassion, but this wave of slander is testing my benevolence. Believe me, in under 20 minutes I'll having people leaping out of windows. I'll even avoid big words.

Excellent post Lauren
The most overlooked part of the 2008 Great Financial Crisis was its cause. Sure, The Big Short is one of your favorite movies, so you know it had to do with credit rating agencies assigning AAA and AA ratings to subprime mortgages. But do you know why they were doing that?

Inference types: Abductive - prevailing wisdom Inductive - mildly suggestive (p-values and CI's) Deductive - compelling (deducts from the set) Falsification - definitive Always maintain awareness of the inference species a person is using. Resist rule by abduction & induction.

See that powder next to the penny? That’s how little of fentanyl can kill someone. Testing doesn’t always work. You get a bag of cocaine, yes maybe the spot you tested is fine, but the next one isn’t. Recreational drug culture has to end. No more glamorizing the good times.
@realpeteyb123 I had a friend who shared a bag of coke with 3 other people He OD'd & everyone else was fine It's not evenly distributed in the powder which makes it sketchy to do even if you have a test kit Crazy times we're living in. I wouldn't touch drugs that didn't come from a pharmacy
