I think constantly of Gaza & I'm sorry I can't extend my current level of financial support.
I'm deeply ashamed of our evil governments for enabling Israel's genocide. The people are with Gaza & may the people prevail. Solidarity. Free Palestine. 🇵🇸 💙

Interview: AI is not the threat. It's the people building it "that are the existential risks to humanity."
"If a bridge collapses, we don’t ever ask, “Was the bridge uncontrollable? Was the bridge unethical?” And really, AI is no different than that."
When we describe these systems as if they have their own agency, we’re helping the companies market themselves. "We’re also helping them sidestep accountability."

All humans have the evolved capacity for cruelty, but it's social conditioning that makes the difference.

Whether Netanyahu, Bennett or others, all have the same ideas on this issue.
“So what Israel is doing is business as usual. The US, thus far, has applied no pressure, & Israel is getting away with it."
"So the question is: Will Trump change that? Scepticism is warranted, as usual."
