Today, the Trump administration repealed the endangerment finding: the ruling that served as the basis for limits on tailpipe emissions and power plant rules. Without it, we’ll be less safe, less healthy and less able to fight climate change — all so the fossil fuel industry can make even more money.
Did anyone's #Fortnite#TeamEmpire win the star destroyer battle prior to the Death Star attack live event? Best I saw was like 15% health left before #TeamRebels lost. Pretty difficult for the rebels! @Fortnite
I’m sorry, but I just can’t stand it anymore.
This massive, outrageous, pork-filled Congressional spending bill is a disgusting abomination.
Shame on those who voted for it: you know you did wrong. You know it.
BREAKING: President Trump and Defense Secretary Hegseth announced that Boeing will build the first ever 6th generation fighter jet.
"The F47 will be the most advanced, most capable, most lethal aircraft ever built. An experimental version of the plane has secretly been flying for almost five years, and we're confident that it massively overpowers the capabilities of any other nation."
What are the odds, on what might be my last flight back to Missouri, that Southwest Airlines' "Missouri One" Boeing 737-700 is right next to my flight!? #aviation#boeing737#MissouriOne
Is Scoble gonna go doomer?
Is this what @ilyasut saw?
Yesterday an AI researcher/entreprener came to my home to show off how a new form of AI architecture, that isn't well known yet, could be weaponized against humans and could cause massive harm to our country, world, and society.
Just think about @simpleailab -- it can call anyone and talk with them. That's my favorite new app and brings a lot of good. But now think of a bad version of that, with a bunch of extra smarts behind it. It can call millions of people all at the same time, and keep trying until it finds a weakness in our humanity to exploit.
I won't go further here because that would enable someone to build such a system, but the threat is real and soon will be easy to implement. And I don't see a defense against it.
The guy who came over yesterday laid out why Open Source AI models opened up a new pandora's box. He thinks Open Source AI should never have been allowed. But we have models from Meta and the Chinese already that are open source. So the box is open and won't be closed.
But this new knowledge puts me in a pinch.
It makes a new form of terrorism possible.
Both of us are wondering "who do we call and tell about this so that our nation can prepare for new threats that are now possible?"
My instinct is @elonmusk or @DavidSacks.
I bring this to you to let you know that horrific new terrorism is possible thanks to AI and that we need to work together to make sure that kind of dystopian future doesn't come. And to open a conversation with those in the government that are trying to protect us from massive terrorist threats.
This is why I built a list of security professionals, to watch how they deal with new threats to our businesses and nations that AI will bring: https://t.co/ZMK3vj4UPO
But to answer the question: no, I'm not going doomer. AI will also save millions of lives and bring us massive good things.
Technology always can be used for both good and bad and I'm not gonna stick my head in the sand and ignore the potential bad. And I'm not gonna stop being a cheerleader for its potential good.
