And the concomitant of racism is misogyny. It isn't an approach, it's a descent.

The top people will see to it there will always be plenty of other things to think about.

Corporations have an unhealthy interest in teaching and research. Promoting AI, with its opaque algorithm, might even incentivise its subsidy. Teach anyone who will listen to you to think critically.

AI has a circular financing loop which means it will need to earn real money from users outside the loop. I doubt whether $30 a head is anywhere near what they really need.

Lettres de mon château en Dordogne

Remind me again of the purpose of an ad hominem attack.

My apple tree cropped very well this year, oh and by the way, society is still being reshaped so that assets and wealth flow to the ultra rich regardless of the consequences for the majority.

The notion that it's "better to reign in Hell, than serve in Heav'n".

Seems strange to me that we can know this and accept food banks, cold homes and homelessness. The ultra rich have got us shinning up lampposts and shouting at hotels and disabled people. We now seem to be headed for some hate filled version of Christianity. Reality check overdue.

Context. Rich people accumulate more of society's wealth and assets at the expense of the majority. Expectation. Accept it and carry on. Reality. Minority of rich folks continue to reshape society in their favour. Wes knows in whose best interests he is working.

This is the blank canvas those pedaling nonsense regard as an opportunity. If you cannot rise in society as it is create the conditions where you think you can. Wake up bystanders, it's not inevitable.

Epstein Files now 3½ sheets of US letter size.

The US' evolving Social Credit System is going to be a little different to China's.

I've no way of evaluating that to give an answer. Is the UK now or ever been a moral place when it comes to money? No. Is this unusual? No. Is a bleak future inevitable? No.

Imagine the answer as three sets in a Venn diagram stacked on top of each other: Our Society, Russian Interference, Peril.

Facial recognition is a big part of the looming Social Credit System. If the government can't award and deduct your points reliably, I hope the AI chatbot will be up to the job.

Fairly obvious that this will be used against young folks demanding a liveable future, old folks not prepared to stay silent as crimes against humanity play out and any other inconvenient voice which a jury of decent people is likely to acquit.
