Indeed. I'm proud to have not read, or seen, or heard a word from him since 2020. I'm going for a full clean decade, at least.
Trying to do the same for similar actors whenever I encounter them. I like the @mims.bsky.social plan of minimal social media or news engagement after 5pm or so.

Quite so. Currently I use walking the same way.
Agree on the bad actors. Many (more?) bots too, or perhaps humans behaving like bots. A black hole of unhealthy thinking. I aggressively ignore them.

There's some solace in many places. We should make feeds/lists of the sources of peace, joy, etc.

Arguably centralization and cost control do not happen together. Yes, scale can be an economic advantage. But it can also lead to many more problems, all of which cost a lot (delay while scaling, increased complexity, mega-bloat, pauses, cancellations, encountering the unexpected).

Apologies for contributing to the gloom. If this is done just for tax cuts, what might be considered for staying in power.

My thinking is there'll be a lot of humans in the processes for a while (for liability reduction) until error rates can be brought down below the human.

I wonder if the AI companies want to take out innumerable professional indemnity insurance contracts? Seems unlikely... What do you think @kellblog.bsky.social

Thanks @petermiles.bsky.social for the repost, and @steveparks.bsky.social for the original. I can think of many whose lives would be changed for the better by such a scheme.

By all means. Now that's quite the escalation. A counter:
1. Some current situations are stupid. Self-defeating blunders will occur.
2. Doom is a distraction from the pragmatic present. Have you encountered StrongTowns.org?

There are always reversals. Most are tiny and local. This is bigger, more stupid, and has further reach. But it too will end.
