The book asks the central question: How do we govern AI? More importantly, *who* should govern it? AI is the most consequential technology of our era. The future of AI is thus inextricably tied to our future, and whether it will get better or worse. 3/

Why did Grok suddenly start talking about “white genocide in South Africa” even if asked about baseball or cute dogs?
Because someone at Musk’s xAi deliberately did this, and we only found out because they were clumsy.

2. While simultaneously dismissing that our case being allowed to move on copyright claims is no big deal (it is)

Elon Musk’s xAI in Memphis: 35 gas turbines, no air pollution permits

How granting a river personhood could help protect it: theconversation.com/granting-leg...

The rights-of-nature movement emerged as a response to economic pressures on ecosystems. But the success of projects depends on how well legal liability is defined.

Neoliberalism is dead. Even though it prevailed 50yrs ago by paying tribute to liberal thinkers, it shared neither their method nor their concept of the market. Today, we are on the cusp of another, even worse, ideological monstrosity: Technolordism! www.project-syndicate.org/commentary/t...

Champions of The Mindset accept a descriptive eschatology--or narrative of the world's end--according to which humans are just the temporary transitional species between the biological and digital worlds. Our role is to birth the digital beings who will soon come to dominate.

Silicon Valley is run by people who genuinely think the world as we know it is going to end in the next few decades. Many also WANT this to happen: they WANT the biological world to be replaced by a new digital world. They WANT "posthumans" to take the place of humans. A 🧵:

What a misguided and terrible ruling from the EU. They just handed people’s rights, privacy and copyrighted works away for free to a US behemoth. This also affects any company whose work is copyright dependent.
