It drives me insane sometimes. Most AI is based on taking decades+ of human written stuff and using it form a decision faster than people can. Which means that decades of human bias is literally being programed into a lot of AIs. Amazon had to shut down their AI resume filter because they couldn’t make it stop being…

But tRump would never have upheld the deal, silly.  His defenders, with his acting Secretary of Defense taking the lead, say tRump would NEVER have actually done what he said he would do.  Which means what for our standing in the world exactly?  Liars gonna lie, count on it.

“But after the 11:46 p.m. alert came in, a ShotSpotter analyst manually overrode the algorithms and “reclassified” the sound as a gunshot.”

This has nothing to do with the tech - the police fabricated evidence and coerced the company into complying with it and the Prosecutor likely knew about the falsification or willfully failed to perform due diligence to find out.

Texas regulators “have no interest in regulating this industry,”

Not THAT choice....

When are we going to stop pretending that the followers of Christian faith aren’t responsible for more pain and suffering than any other group in human history? Why is there still this social stigma shrouding atheism? It’s ridiculous and mind boggling that we still cling to the idea that atheists are somehow less…

Stochastic terrorism.

The reason is simple. Right wing media is designed to manufacture hatred, outrage, and fear in its consumers. That dopamine release gives those consumers a sense of excitement. It is like big fans of professional wrestling getting all worked up over the latest manufactured rage fest between two big topless guys wearing…

“My body, my choice”... I wonder what this motherfucker thinks about abortion...

Trump era: freedom to kill 1 million fellow citizens and try to other-throw the government.

Half of all Americans are... fucking morons. Utter fucking morons.

Americans define themselves by opposition.

1960 and earlier: The freedom to fuck over minorities and shove through slow roll pogroms.

Maybe we can’t.
