And now you have Canada to fear as well.

There's a whole Emergency Broadcasting System set up to operate on AM with all infrastructure and long tested procedures solidly in place. The dismal entertainment value of AM radio means few now have them (and even fewer people are preppers). In emergencies, buying anything - if it's possible at all - will be extremely expensive, difficult, and usually outright dangerous. An AM car radio these days is $5 worth of chips added to the sound system - the real cost of implementing this wouldn't be in the hundreds.

Who wants to own people, they're obsolete

I'll take the calm, reassuring quiet tone of Hal-9000.

"I asked ChatGPT..." is an increasingly common start to a topic on many platforms for any subject that puzzles the poster. The Left hand side of the bell-curve is a large and powerful demographic that MAGA (and especially it's chief figurehead) are adept at cultivating.

Quoted directly from the summary - give it a read and see for yourself

...Trump is a distant second to the TechBros. Your tax dollars at work folks, fueling the bubble.

Well at least they are contributing something to the local economy and if it's not enough, you can fine them again, of fine them even more for contempt.

Nonsense, we closed the door on copying data with the DCMA and cheerfully accept devices that make using that capability difficult and risky for the multitudes. We could apply the same pressure to regulating AI if there was the will to do so. "Too late" is the just the fantacy the Tech bros want us to believe

corruption is for oligarchs!

Or simply that they may have been induced to continue Trumps thwarted persecution of Anthropic through other means.

I can recommend Ublock Origin, Privacy Badger and NoScript used together, they sure quiet this place down.

Trained on the totality of recorded human activity and they're not getting a kind and gentle AI?

The hilarious thing is that all the subsequent generations - with the exception of Gen Z - made the same mistakes, ignored the same warnings and differed the same measures as the Boomers did, no difference at all. As for Gen Z, they do not hold political power and they sound just like the Boomer kids did when they were young held no political power.

So if you are not Gen Z. take a look in the mirror when you start hurling blame. If you are Gen Z, I hope you hang on to your principals as you age.

I'm sure the estimated half million Russians who have died fighting in Ukraine have no great love for their kleptocratic regime either, still, technically it's also an all volunteer army. Offering 5 years wages for signing, and half that again as a death benefit to your family has kept the ranks filled to the point that commanders squander them on a regular basis. Not so long ago Musk was paying a million for a single vote, I think we can manage it.
