this was my attempt at trying to translate “Black Lives Matter” in Tibetan. it actually says “Black lives are precious.” tried to strike that balance between being accurate in translation but also achieving resonance in Tibetan (in my view).
The Liberal government might as well have called its AI strategy “All in for AI”.
This is a document that is heavy on hype, but light on the right guardrails that we need to protect people – and to ensure that the benefits of the technology don’t just flow to a handful of tech giants and investors.
It proposes a massive boost to business adoption of AI, with no concern for the consequences this will have for workers, especially young workers who are already watching careers vanish before their eyes.
This government is imposing a world-changing technology on all of us without any public debate. Instead of putting in place strong regulations to safeguard workers, youth, privacy, and our water and energy supply, they prefer to “move fast and break things” as the Silicon Valley motto goes.
That’s why before rushing ahead, with no brakes, we need a robust regulatory framework. Every other industry in this country, from forestry to banking, is regulated. Yet somehow, when it comes to generative AI that is controlled by MAGA-aligned billionaires, the usual rules don’t apply.
New Democrats support the development of cutting edge technology. For AI, that looks like responsible machine learning with small, contained datasets and targeted applications.
We’re calling for a humans-first AI strategy. One that protects Canadian jobs, data and natural resources. Not a strategy that mimics the worst tendencies of AI chatbots: hallucinating benefits and flattering big tech CEOs by telling them exactly what they want to hear.
Not a single peep from the likes of the BBC or CNN, the same outlets that were reporting on the Iranian women’s football team three times a day.
Western media doesn’t care about women’s freedom in Iran, Palestine or Lebanon unless it can be weaponised to serve their narrative.

In the middle of a live streamed genocide the Canadian Prime Minister is making speeches in front of an Israeli flag, telling us that the real victims are those who’s feelings are hurt by criticism of the offending state.

@McgeeCath68916@saphirasnowborn@fay_jay@ItsMrjorden you’re trying to impress on ppl that you have an elevated grasp of the English language when it looks like you lack basic comprehension and navigate everyday interactions through ChatGPT prompts.
pls sit this one out.
I am a single issue voter anymore. If you support Israel in literally any way shape or form I will not vote for you. I do not care about literally anything else anymore. How can anyone see this and ignore it.
Reminder that @MarkJCarney cut crucial community based funding for the Murdered & Missing Indigenous Women program which aimed to keep Indigenous women safe. He’s also ignoring rampant anti-Indigenous hate and residential school denialism. I guess Jewish safety is more important.
I'm old enough to remember after the Report on Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls was released, our media and political classes spent about a week debating whether it was appropriate to use the word genocide and then nothing happened whatsoever
BREAKING: We now know the municipal/provincial and federal lobbyists behind the Billy Bishop airport expansion in Toronto is Nieuport Aviation, an asset among many, controlled by the IIG which was founded by JP Morgan. Yes, an AMERICAN bank is trying to destroy our waterfront.
Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas
@tellahaterfucku@isaiahthomas I think you meant to say Becky Hammon was proven correct, or something along those lines. stand corrected means she was wrong.
The man speaking here, telling soldiers, using a bible verse, to "seize babies" in Gaza and "dash them against the rocks", is Israeli minister Yitzhak Wasserlauf.
