Tragically, when I first saw the movie “Don’t Look Up” in 2021, it struck a chord with me. I felt viscerally that humans would find ourselves in a comparable place one day - and soon.
If you haven’t seen the movie, I’d recommend it. A quick recap: Humans were explicitly warned that a comet that could destroy Earth was heading rapidly toward us. And instead of doing anything to stop it, the president, elected leaders and billionaire CEOs just spewed some bullshit about all the “jobs the comet would create.” The media treated the comet as casual entertainment. The public was split and the entire thing gets politicized. The movie ends with nearly all of human life wiped out.
Just about a year ago I had the opportunity to join a bipartisan freshman class breakfast with Sam Altman. I was shocked when he said to us, “in 18 months, I’ll trust artificial superintelligence to run my company better than I can.” I regret I didn’t engage more on this issue immediately.
Now here we are - it’s 2026 and engineers at the world’s leading AI companies are telling us that there is a >10% chance that artificial intelligence could kill all humans. They’re not mincing their words in the slightest. Not because of present day AI capabilities, but because it is evolving so exponentially that we could be in a doomsday scenario in a year. One year.
This is fucking serious. We need to halt new advanced AI development. We need guardrails, transparency and emergency powers. We need more employees at these companies to speak out publicly, loudly and fearlessly until everyone is forced to listen. We need the media to be covering this 24/7 until elected officials are forced to act. We need the Trump Administration to treat this with the urgency it deserves. We need the ability to shut an AI model off if there’s a credible threat to human life. The list goes on - and we don’t even know what the full list entails because this is all happening so fast. That’s why we need urgent, bipartisan public hearings and committees dedicated to developing and enacting solutions expeditiously.
This isn’t partisan. Let’s stop with the bullshit and come together for the sake of our shared humanity. I’m a 34-year-old Democratic Congresswoman, and I’d like to live to see my late 30s. I know my Republican colleagues want the same for themselves and their loved ones.
None of us can afford to be complacent about this any longer.
Richard Hughes has fucked us completely. Hopefully in January we can get some good business done. Camara and a right back. Wharton, Scott and a RW next summer. #lfc
Can’t see us finishing higher than 3rd this season with major problems at right back and in midfield. Hoping for a trophy outside of the PL. if we sign a world class mid and right back in January it could be a different story. #lfc
Transfer thoughts:
We desperately need a RB and midfielder. The best solution we have is to sign Wharton and then play Dom RB until we can sign a proper right back in January or next summer.
I’m really hoping the Sarr links are a smokescreen because he’s not a the level.
Post-game thoughts:
+Munoz is exactly the type of winger we needed
+JJ is great
+Big Ronald changed the game when he came on
+ Nyoni looks ready to make the step up
+ Wirtz
+ Isak goal
- Frimpong is shocking
- Midfield gets played through way to easily
- Kerkez poor
🔴 🦅 Liverpool are making another push for Ismaïla Sarr! 🇸🇳
The Reds are preparing to submit a new proposal to Crystal Palace for the Senegalese winger.
🇸🇦 Al Ittihad are closely monitoring the situation and could take advantage of the opening if the deal falls through. #LFC
Liverpool ask about Ismaila Sarr with Yankuba Minteh pursuit stalling - but Palace will not do a deal unless they have a replacement https://t.co/G1WfeoANxo
