@camillesopko @1776_July_4 @Simon_Ingari I just keep an actual photo of my fam on my desk *shrugs*

@QuestEvery @Simon_Ingari Lost me at "potential loyalty drift". Defo a chatGPT written post.

It took Blue Cross/Blue Shield and Conduent MORE than 9 months to disclose a MAJOR data breach, which included people's medical records, SSNs, contact info, etc.

AI increases power use, but the numbers don’t support the panic.
2024 data-centre use: 415 TWh (1.5% of global electricity).
Most of that isn’t AI. Most of that was video streaming and social media.

Canada risks falling behind without urgent investment in sovereign compute, sovereign data, and domestic AI capability. The AI sprint is necessary, not dangerous.

“Just stay on Windows 10.”
Or my favourite: “Install Windows 7, it still works!”
Meanwhile: kernel escalation, GDI+ overflow, preview-pane RCE…

Nostalgia isn’t a security policy.
Legacy OS's are not secure.

In the AI arms race, "time has become sovereign." Canada's 30-day AI Strategy Sprint isn't reckless. It's our shot at digital sovereignty before we lag behind forever. Ethics + economics demand action NOW. Read my take: https://t.co/2pBkTxDmmC

@believe20252312 @fey_photeine @GarnettGenuis Man, the sovereign wealth fund we could've had. If profits from Petro Canada alone had been vested in a fund, Canada could be effectively debt-free.

Your OS used to just run programs.
Now it studies you.
Prediction is the product, and you're the input.

@bradponsart @IAmWickedFrost @JayGenXer With exception to the Libs and the Conservatives, historically, Canada has had rather flexible "voting blocks" that called themselves parties, but were more like a collection of ridings that aligned over certain specific issues. I think we need more of that these days.

[CryptoChron @ChronCrypto]

@KarlHeinzSmith1 @JayGenXer That moment when you realize most of these "Canada is broken" types have very little idea how the government actually works.

@XFreeze @grok is the AI4/AI5 chips essentially a ASIC optimized for Tesla software?

[CryptoChron @ChronCrypto]

If the OS has become a mirror of the self, we must demand to see our reflection before we pass it downstream to the cloud. Read why I call it "Le Contrôle Muet" (The Silent Control): https://t.co/GFWz6w9rHL

🇨🇦 Law 25 vs. the AI OS: We built strong laws against explicit surveillance. But what about the implicit threat of continuous AI inference? Unsolicited remote desktop was the old worry. The algorithm that never logs out is the new one. #PrivacyParadox #AIEthics #Loi25

[CryptoChron @ChronCrypto]

Privacy is no longer secrecy; it's agency. Per Quebec's Loi 25, the right to information regarding automated decisions MUST apply directly to the OS's proprietary inference logs. We demand clarity.

@erik_thorvalds Stop shopping at Costco for everything. My local butcher does waaaay better. Their website is shit, but THAT I can live with.
