I want to live in the USA represented in all these uplifting Super Bowl commercials.

Good morning from Los Angeles Home of Puka & Luka

5/ This also raises concerns about AI monopolization. If only a handful of companies can afford energy-efficient AI, will this create a further concentration of power? Or will it democratize AI usage? > #TechEthics #AIRegulation #deepseek

4/ But now there’s a question: As an individual or organization, do you have a moral obligation to choose the most energy-efficient AI tools? If you’re climate-conscious, should you actively seek out lower-carbon AI? #EthicalAI #EnergyEfficiency #deepseek

3/ The implications? If AI can advance climate research, energy efficiency, and sustainability solutions, doing so with a lower energy footprint is a massive win. It makes the path to AI-driven climate solutions more viable. #GreenAI #ClimateAction #deepseek

2/ But DeepSeek-V2 just changed the game. It reportedly uses 10-40x less energy than comparable models. This isn’t just an incremental improvement—it’s a potential paradigm shift for sustainable AI. #SustainableTech #AIInnovation #deepseek

1/ The #1 concern around AI adoption has been its environmental impact. Training and running large models consume enormous energy, leading to backlash from climate-conscious individuals and policymakers. #AI #ClimateChange #deepseek

#DeepSeek also shows how deeply AI is intertwined with markets & tech. Massive stock market shifts & tech war rooms prove AI isn’t just advancing—it’s reshaping society now. This is why AI is inevitable, and public engagement is critical. The ground is shifting. #AIDemocratization #AI #AIForGood

The #DeepSeek announcements mark a keystone flashpoint in AI development. If true, this signals a future where AI advances while reducing resource use—tackling one of the greatest negative externalities (environmental impact). ROI in AI is tipping toward a net positive. #AI #Sustainability

Good AI ethics iterate that it should augment—and not replace— human abilities and decision making. People will instinctually reject the technology if they feel it’s given too much autonomy over their lives at this stage when trust for it hasn’t been affirmed (and rightfully so as it’s so nascent)

The sky is the limit for applications of AI in the future— even in as little as 2-3 years. But when it is deployed prematurely for the sake of gimmicks at best and corner cutting at worst to a populace already wary it eroded trust. Case in point:

“We live in a wheel where everyone steals/ But when we rise it’s like strawberry fields” Bush; Glycerine

I will never, ever get over this.

Mulling on this quite a bit. I think there are so many incredibly positive applications of AI— but image (and music) generation have some grey area. The lamentation of displacing creators can be applied to the broader white collar labor force as well.

On this Thanksgiving I’m taking quite seriously and literally @gordon.bsky.social’s maxim: “Everything around me was someone’s life work” When you *really* integrate this into your thinking, gratitude and curiosity flow.

I have a redraft where I have Jefferson, McLaurin, Sutton, J Jennings, and Meyers. My only viable RB is the jacked gerbil. Should I trade Jefferson for Taylor or Chase Brown (or not at all)?
