“This is one of the largest funerals in the history of the Palestinian cause. Today, 112 martyrs will be be buried in the soil of Gaza. Talk about us. Raise your voices. Don’t let these scenes pass unnoticed on your phones.”

I apologize for disturbing you. I just wanted to let you know that we are still trapped under bombardment, suffering from hunger, thirst, and the unbearable heat in Gaza. I sincerely apologize again for the disturbance.

🚨🇪🇸 NEW: Spanish Transport Minister Óscar Puente implies that Israel was behind the migrant crisis at Ceuta

Nearly 50,000 immigrants crossed into Ceuta from Morocco in a day

[American Pravda @pravdaamerican]

Y’all know this is happening because Spain is openly hostile toward Israel right????? HOW ARENT MORE PEOPLE SEEING THE CORRELATION?????

These people didn’t just decide one day to seek up in Spain.

Avi Arad is also an IOF terrorist who served in the 6 day war in 1967.

This led to the illegal jewish occupation of east Al-Quds (Jerusalem) including Al-Aqsa Mosque and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre.

Watch how his face drops! He's there to promote AI yet goes into screensaver mode when confronted

I DO NOT think people fully understand how much 1 billion is. If your salary was $100k with no tax, it would take you 10 years to become a millionaire, but 10,000 years to reach a billion. It is unethical for one person to be hoarding this much wealth while others cannot eat.

btw anthropic's internal document on this literally said "we don't want it to be known that we are working on this.”

it was called project panama.

here's exactly what happened:

1: anthropic concluded that books were the cheapest way to build a world-class model because they gave claude curated facts, structured arguments, compelling stories, and writing “an editor would approve of.”

2: once anthropic decided it needed books at enormous scale, its first solution was piracy.

it downloaded 7m+ books from online libraries including libgen. the judge later wrote that although anthropic had legal ways to buy them, it chose piracy to avoid what dario amodei called the “legal/practice/business slog.”

3: that piracy created a massive legal risk.

so in february 2024, anthropic hired tom turvey, the former head of partnerships for google books, to find a legally safer way of obtaining “all the books in the world.”

4: turvey first contacted major publishers about licensing their catalogs.

those attempts didn’t produce agreements, so anthropic chose a route that required no publisher permission: buying millions of physical books through distributors and used-book retailers.

5: within about a year, anthropic spent tens of millions acquiring and scanning millions of books, including many rare and 1/1 titles. one vendor proposal targeted 500,000 to 2 million books in six months.

6: to scan that many books within months, the vendors physically dismantled them.

a hydraulic cutter removed each spine. the pages were trimmed to size, fed as loose sheets through high-speed industrial scanners, and converted into searchable PDFs. the paper remains were then sent for recycling.

7: these PDFs were fed into claude as training data.

the complete collection became a private, searchable anthropic library that the company planned to “store forever.” the scans aren’t available to the public and were never open-sourced.

Activist Erin Brockovich is forming a nationwide effort to hold data centers accountable for environmental damage

She has already received over 8,000 complaints about data centers from nearly every state

[Nick Kapur @nick_kapur]

Terrifying thread.

Due to a legal ruling which lets AI companies off the hook for copyright infringement as long as they destroy the original book, they're buying up millions of rare books, scanning them as AI training data, and then destroying them.

An entire lake. An entire fish population. Gone.

Arizona's San Carlos Lake has been closed after drought and falling water levels triggered the death of virtually every fish.

This is what ecological collapse looks like. Not one species. Whole ecosystems failing before our eyes.

What really fucking boils my piss is that we had the opportunity to change the world after Covid. The pandemic produced a fascinating real-world experiment. It demonstrated that human activity can alter emissions and local environmental conditions extraordinarily quickly

Armed Israeli civilians are planning to storm the West Bank tonight.

There is no justification, just crimes and impunity and this must stop.
