Ooooh, it's Infrastructure Week, attempt #58. Can't wait.

doverkarl.bsky.social•38 days ago

Is this incremental to the SoftBank announcement a few weeks back? Is Trump calling a press conference to re-milk a previous announcement?

AI awakens and disenfranchises all wealthy assholes... my wafer thin hope for irony.

pinemikey.bsky.social•38 days ago

Self-dealing again

alexpontikas.bsky.social•38 days ago

I hope the AI guys and girls know what their doing...or else...

👥
Sometimes happening...
When another intelligence fails and does not help.
🤯
Maybe better Musk intelligence?
Or any another intelligence?
🤔
Why AI ?
☝️
I know...
AI have no feeling❗
🤞

The Tech Bros say hi

luken100.bsky.social•38 days ago

Will Farage change his tune on AI and crypto currency now

yougottavote.bsky.social•38 days ago

Bye bye American’s tax dollars on your new Tech Overlords.

notafkingnpc.bsky.social•38 days ago

Lol

ukanarchist.bsky.social•38 days ago

Rather hilarious that he's 'investigating 500 billion' in ai with the primary aim of taking American jobs.

the-dude00.bsky.social•38 days ago

That’s why they gave him campaign money

decib.bsky.social•38 days ago

And yet there are still parts of the country that don’t have high speed internet. And our public school are under funded in many states. But sure let’s give $100b to the tech bros … because after all they bought and paid for this election. Time for Trump to pay his debts on the public’s dime.

Here it comes.

AI isn’t infrastructure

jm78mmm6.bsky.social•38 days ago

Yawn 🥱

jedi2023.bsky.social•38 days ago

Uh Oh …. #ETTD ? Time to short?

newblueskyday.bsky.social•38 days ago

How about investing in real, physical infrastructure instead of wasting money to play make believe?! Ugh…the next many years are going to suck.

edastronaut.bsky.social•38 days ago

That was my first thought as well but that's the way his mind works. What's the easiest con... what will transfer the most power and money upwards without having to make actual Investments in communities?

AI of course

newblueskyday.bsky.social•38 days ago

Correct. It’s all about the grift.

jchrisa.bsky.social•38 days ago

Capital going straight to https://X.ai's Grok on Musk's prodding.

OpenAi, Anthropic and Perplexity might get the scraps. The will be scrambling for an army of lobbyists for a share.

mikeywiggins.bsky.social•38 days ago

Couldn't he pay teachers more?

By far the most impactful piece of this new administration that’s not being interrogated. This is a check to the TechReich and a devastating blow to the future labor market in this country. We are sleepwalking to massive consequences just on this issue alone.

ec-d.bsky.social•38 days ago

Exactly. And a clear indication that Trump’s been bought. Musk and Co have already seen a significant ROI.

pdolby.bsky.social•38 days ago

Hmmmmm I wonder who that will benefit. And what % he gets

edastronaut.bsky.social•38 days ago

We will be the slaves in this scenario

murgatroidbonbon.bsky.social•38 days ago

Leon. 😜

captain-rick.bsky.social•37 days ago

Remember the failed 2016 Foxconn plant, once touted by Trump as a 13,000-job juggernaut, will now create just 1,500 jobs? 🤣🤣🤣

lolalolajoaquin.bsky.social•38 days ago

Infrastructure week 2017👇

murgatroidbonbon.bsky.social•38 days ago

So not a border wall this time? 😆

narrativediffusion.bsky.social•38 days ago

Fuck yeah big government choosing winners and losers with a big infrastructure program, just like under Biden! Woohoo

mitch14k.bsky.social•38 days ago

You have no idea what you are talking about….clearly

marchantmad.bsky.social•38 days ago

What can go wrong when selfish idiots are incharged or running worldwide, life changing technologies.

misterseed.bsky.social•38 days ago

Pay a Don tribute and get whatever you want. Kind of simple.

Dangerous for private companies to own AI

sakuratrader.bsky.social•38 days ago

Attempting to kill wind projects stands in direct contrast with AI investment, especially with long timeframes in nuclear development. AI is going to need all the energy it can get from multiple sources.

zygotes-complaint.bsky.social•38 days ago

And why not? The faster they can replace humans with AI controlled robots the faster they can get rid of any need for humans at all. A 'Godfearing' Christian Techno-Autocratic Oligarchy. A virtually unlimited supply of useless consumers of Earth's limited resources.

floridajohn.bsky.social•38 days ago

And yet...According to Joel Berg, CEO of Hunger Free America, ending hunger in the United States would cost around $25 billion. This estimate suggests that a combination of increased wages and improved safety net programs like SNAP.

jennsblueinaz.bsky.social•37 days ago

Does anyone else think that trump wants to use AI the way the Nazis used IBM technology to find all the Jewish people during ww2? Use it to scan the shit tons of private info that’s in the ether? Narrow down and weed out the people (like us) with TDS? I don’t think this is a big leap? Do you?

xrmechsolutions.bsky.social•37 days ago

That is my only thought in how this taint would use AI.

vegasmom4boys.bsky.social•38 days ago

And so it begins...

texdog97.bsky.social•38 days ago

How does this fit the reduce spending narrative?

bigbux.bsky.social•38 days ago

Remember the Foxcon con job he did years ago that never happened.

thereportersinc.bsky.social•38 days ago

Lock the Nazi up NOW
