Care is the holy grail of automation. Because we need it to survive, but it's too labor-intensive to be profitable, even as it gets more expensive. And because we could make it a public good, but only by raising taxes on billionaires.
So, be *very* skeptical when they claim AI can replace care.

It is a choice to keep drugs unregulated. The government chooses to prohibit drugs, which allows for black markets to flourish, which creates a more potent and dangerous unregulated supply. The government could regulate drugs and undercut the unregulated market, but chooses not to.
Health authorities linking spike to their own failure
Health authorities linking spike to medetomidine, a veterinary anesthetic that is among the latest substances being added to the ever-changing street-drug supply. By some estimates, it's up to 200x more potent than xylazine.
