is it possible for any of these guys to just stop fucking talking for like literally 20 seconds
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang says AI will unleash a wave of new ideas and unfinished projects—leaving people busier, not freer, as “everybody’s jobs will be different.” trib.al/i8LvkCC
Nvidia CEO says AI will actually make everyone a lot busier: 'Everybody's jobs will be different' | Fortune
“I would say that there's every evidence that we will be more productive and yet still be busier because we have so many ideas,” Jensen Huang said.

There is a direct correlation between how fake your job is and how much value you see in AI
A study by Dayforce shows 87% of executives use AI for work, compared to 57% of managers and just 27% of employees.
I think this explains the massive disconnect we see in how CEOs talk about AI versus everyone else. It also raises the question of how useful it truly is for frontline work?

Execs are embracing AI more than their employees are, new research suggests
Research from HR software company Dayforce suggests that executives are leaning into AI far more than their employees.

If you, like me, are the parent of a neuro-atypical child dreading this autism press conference, please remember: These are the people hurting our kids. Not us. They are the ones stigmatizing and pathologizing them. They are the ones peddling untested science. And we should be very, very angry.

How dare Tim Houston ruin my child's favourite summer activity: burning down the province of Nova Scotia
By: Peggy-Anne MacInnis The Nova Scotia government’s ban on any human activity in the woods is outrageous and likely unconstitutional. It infringes on our god given right to enjoy the beauty of Canada’s majestic scenery. And worst of all, it has totally ruined my little Timmy’s favourite pastime: setting small fires in the woods and […]

This is the entire fulcrum of the anti-trans movement. Every random person believes they have the right to weigh in on "care" and what is psychologically and medically best for kids and even other adults, and for some reason governments have decided this is rational.

We don’t have to espouse some weird version of universal love or pretend a mass murderer is “redeemable” to be against capital punishment. State murder corrupts us all, especially our criminal justice system. A mass murderer may deserve this institution but more importantly, _we_ do not.
