Massive bombshell. Anthropic co-founder Chris Olah warns that AI will displace human labor on a catastrophic global scale. He confirms tech elites have absolutely no mechanism to share the wealth, leaving the global poor completely abandoned to suffer. He is 100% accurate.
Elon Musk:”I am the reason OpenAI exists, it wouldn't exist without me.
I came up with the name. The name 'OpenAI' refers to open source. So the intent was: what's the opposite of Google? It would be an open-source nonprofit. Because Google is closed-source, for-profit.”
La ciencia avanza hacia un hito histórico: primer fármaco para regenerar dientes naturales ya entró en fase clínica en humanos. El tratamiento busca activar mecanismos biológicos capaces de estimular el crecimiento dental, abriendo una nueva era para la odontología regenerativa.
The President has made hundreds of millions of dollars in stock trades this year in companies his own Administration regulates — then he uses his platform to influence the market. It's blatant corruption.
Mostly true. What matters is securing the long-term future of consciousness, both on Earth and other heavenly bodies.
We cannot just focus on Earth, because there are irreducible external (eg massive meteor) and internal (eg global nuclear war) cataclysmic risks.
The Moon is faster to make self-growing, but is more susceptible to problems on Earth. Mars will take longer to make self-growing, because it is so hard to reach, but is more secure from Earth disasters for that same reason.
Both the Moon and Mars should have self-growing civilizations. Making this happen is the prime directive of SpaceX.
Pope Leo XIV: I hear very troubling accounts of algorithms that can block access to healthcare, employment, and security on the basis of data tainted by prejudice. I've heard the silence of those who have no voice when decisions likely to generate new forms of suffering are made. Nuclear disarmament remains a service to peace. In a similar sense, AI now demands to be disarmed, freed from logics that turned it into an instrument of domination, exclusion, and death.
New York City mayor Zohran Mamdani has collected $9m (£6.6m) in unpaid fines from Amazon, which has been violating the city's clean air laws by leaving engines running on its parked vehicles. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos criticised Mamdani’s push to tax the rich, to fund education.
During the devastating Australian bushfires, a brave woman rushed into the flames to save a severely burnt koala. The little marsupial was crying out in agony, its body scorched and fur burnt, struggling across the road surrounded by fire. 🐨❤️🔥
Without hesitation, she took off her shirt, wrapped the koala gently, poured water over its burns to ease the pain, and rushed it to the Port Macquarie Koala Hospital. The heartbreaking cries of the koala moved the world, while this selfless woman became a true hero and symbol of compassion in the face of disaster.
From experiencing the HS2, I know these machines give off high electromagnetic radiation, so if used under houses in built-up areas, besides cracking properties, cancers will be rife. What is so wonderful about saving time? --The outcome of humanity speeding into a dense wall?
London Underground station flooding has reportedly been reduced by around 90% thanks to a group of engineers: beavers.
After conservationists reintroduced a family of beavers into a nearby city park, the animals built dams and restored wetlands that now absorb and slow floodwater naturally.
Authorities had planned major man-made flood infrastructure, but the beavers effectively created their own system — while also boosting biodiversity and restoring the ecosystem around them.
