The US & Russia have about 6000 #NuclearWeapons each, which have almost been used in accidental nuclear war many times. Do we really need that many for robust nuclear deterrence? Here's what we could do with "only" 1100: https://t.co/zmVTlLztdV

Max Tegmark, an AI researcher of MIT created a news site that shows you how news are manipulated. By using the slider "Political Stance" you can see how AI filters out news into left leaning or right leaning. >>

Max Tegmark says that many people are under the misconception that fake news is a real problem in polarization, its not. He had a team of MIT students use machine learning to detect the main political problems last summer & he says that its omissions that are the real issue.
Here's my conversation with Max Tegmark (@tegmark). Our first chat was episode #1 of this podcast. Now he's back! We talk about the intersection of machine learning and physics, and also about how to avoid near-term and long-term existential threats of AI. https://t.co/HtV4bHGmo9
"It is dangerous that they are trying to pick him off - and lock him up for a long time - on a story that leaps over and public interest hurdle" - Former @Guardian editor-in-chief Alan Rusbridger @arusbridger#FreeAssangeNOW

Very important exchange with @ninaturner on her great new podcast, in which @TulsiGabbard explains why it's so imperative for Trump to pardon Edward @Snowden & Julian Assange before January, and why the worst national security goons are so against it.

@CoNWW3 At the end of the World War III nobody will have any country to defend. A nuclear war don't destroy only one nation. It destroys and make most of the Earth inhabitable for thousands of years. https://t.co/HNyV6JbhNR
National Security apparatchiks like @AmbassadorRice (no longer an Ambassador) have wanted Snowden in prison for years because he exposed how they secretly and illegally converted the internet into their spying playground.
As for her claim that pardoning Snowden is a GOP view:
While Snowden is hated in DC by Adam Schiff & Liz Cheney, polls have shown from the start that millions of Americans regard him as a hero.
But in Europe, the sentiment is overwhelming. Read @FinancialTimes from last year on what happens when he speaks:

@Snowden The US had made contact to all, as in ALL European countries, warning the various governments, that it would have consequences, should any of those offer asylum to Snowden.
Meanwhile the US revoked his passport and further travel to for example Ecuador was no longer an option.
The next time you see somebody trying to revive the long-discredited claims that I was some kind of foreign agent because they don't like what I represent, show them this clip of the NSA's Deputy Director—the man who actually ran that investigation—trash-canning it.
@NilsMelzer No.
Everyone knew what they were doing when working for Hitler and his gang - he regularly publicly orated what Nazi policies were meant for!
So, dutifully obeying orders in those circumstances IS knowingly assisting evil. This was true before the Nuremberg trials as it is after.
