The machine that's being built to replace all workers needs workers to bail it out so it can keep existing
“OpenAI is getting ready to run hat in hand to the taxpayer for subsidies.” After losing more than $13 billion this year, OpenAI officials are angling for a bailout. From @ryanlcooper.com:

OpenAI Is Maneuvering for a Government Bailout - The American Prospect
For artificial intelligence to ever pencil out, some truly enormous revenue streams will be required. And if you need trillions of dollars for data centers forever, there’s only one entity to turn to: Uncle Sam.

Billionaires are starving the world
Over 71 million Americans are paid less than a living wage, and are forced into social safety nets like SNAP.
If you think too many people are receiving SNAP benefits, don’t shame them.
Shame their employers paying them poverty wages and forcing taxpayers to subsidize the rest.

The Signal story is a glaring display of incompetence and sloppiness, and it’s also fun to mock, but as a political matter, let’s not overstate its salience. “Russiagate” didn’t move the dial. Dems reverting to a focus on national security would be malpractice amid this mass anti-oligarchy fervor.
