Technological progress — valuable in itself — requires careful discernment of the anthropological vision that guides it and the ends it pursues. If technological development advances without a corresponding ethical and social progress, the result may be an increase in means without a growth in humanity: “having more” without “being more.” There is a risk that individuals will be evaluated principally according to the outcomes they produce. #MagnificaHumanitas

The Pope has weighed in: AI isn't magic. It is produced by a currently deeply exploitative, extractive supply chain. It challenges human dignity; it could fuel a new colonialism. And among the greatest challenges of our time will be to redirect its path of development.
Kenny Atkinson said losing the Game 6s in the previous rounds hurt the Cavaliers
"We win those Game 6s we beat the Knicks - I'm not saying that, but I think it gives us a better chance. But the density of the frequency of the games played a part in it"
The Knicks have now outscored their opponents by 262 points across the last 11 games.
That is the best point differential across 11 games in NBA history, regardless of whether it is regular or postseason play.
What an incredible month it has been in New York.
