Piers Morgan pretending to suddenly realise - in late July 2026! - that Fauci is—and always was—an utter fraud is peak mockery.
None of us will ever forget this👇🏻not as long as we live. It wasn’t Fauci who said it, it was Piers Morgan: 8.9M followers.
After seeing a post on it yesterday, I’ve looked more deeply into Anthropic’s purchasing and destruction of millions of used books.
They spent tens of millions of dollars acquiring and destroying books to train their AI model, Claude.
They knew, from the beginning that it would be unpopular. They knew what they were doing, was wrong.
An internal memo from 2024 stated:
“Project Panama is our effort to destructively scan all the books in the world.”
“We don’t want it to be known that we are working on this.”
Why used books?
Companies like Anthropic and Meta found it impractical to gain permission from authors and publishers to use their work.
So instead, they stole their work to train their product through mass purchases of used books and through pirating them from the internet.
The authors of these works, didn’t receive a dime for their efforts. These companies stole the hard won literary talent of others to train machines to replace the victims of their theft.
Anthropic cofounder Ben Mann personally downloaded countless books for this purpose from LibGen, a book pirating website.
When a new book piracy website debuted in 2022, Mann sent an email sharing the link with his employees stating: “just in time!!!”
Meta employees were wary about the piracy of books, with one engineer writing, “Torrenting from a corporate laptop doesn’t feel right.”
Anthropic purchased millions of books, in batches of tens of thousands from Better World Books and U.K.-based World of Books.
They then used a “hydraulic powered cutting machine” to slice off the spines of these books before scanning them. Finally, the remains of these books were picked up for recycling.
Feel free to use AI, it’s a free country.
But remember that, if you use Claude, that Anthropic has committed a great wrong, and they knew that they were doing it from the beginning.
Below is an image, from a court case, of a warehouse full of used books, that instead of being held and read by you and your children, have been destroyed forever.
AI is inevitable, but spend your money on the companies who do good, and do not knowingly commit evils.
May the most moral company win.
Job interviews are always like, “What can you do?”
Sir, I’m a millennial born in the ‘90s. Just tell me what I need to know, and I’ll master it in three days.
The key point that most are missing is not that "wow, that's too high to jump off of." Obviously, we watched someone make that leap. For me, what's most interesting is the commitment, the lack of hesitation, the determination and intention to make that leap.
That roof is 16-20 feet high. At no point does the jumper hesitate, or pause to look around and take stock of the situation. Without rehearsal and practice, most people would take a beat here. Not this guy. He headed straight for that corner and did a Peter Pan like he'd done it a hundred times before.
But nowhere in the hearing did the prosecution indicate that Tyler had ever even scoped out that spot, or evaluated it as an egress point. Most average people would probable retreat back the way they came. Not our jumper. He knew right where to head, and exactly what to do when he got there.
There was no pause. No hitch. No caution. No dithering. No trepidation. No fussing about trying to figure out the best sptot to start hanging down. No exploration of the two sides of the corner. The average person doesn't naturally head to a 16 foot roof and just hope it'll all work out, which is what they're asking us to believe about Tyler: that without rehearsal, practice or evaluation beforehand, he leapt up after his shot and headed straightaway to an unknown corner and knew exactly what to do once he was there, even though nothing would have prevented him from simply running back down the stairs the way he came, like an average untrained "assassin."
Go find a 20 foot roof with a rifle and backpack, and see how long it takes you to decide to climb down. Don't blink or hesitate. This guy didn't.
He didn't even fumble around with the gun. His foot placement was perfect. His movements to transfer the gun were perfect and efficient. Totally fluid. Again, no bumbling or extraneous actions. You simply won't convince me that these are the actions of a scrawny kid who's never killed anyone before and is a bit of an egghead who's really good at math.
Katy Perry and Orlando Bloom in 2020.
They posted this right after Fauci had held a private zoom meeting with 36 celebrities including themselves, Kim Kardashian, Gwyneth Paltrow, Mila Kunis, Ashton Kutcher, and many others.
I can’t even. Why are we shredding and pulping books? Often rare ones? In the name of AI. Are you kidding me? If the alarm bells haven’t sounded yet, they should now. And this coming from me, someone who is tech-forward. Good grief!
Look at this. In Germany, it doesn't matter whether you earn 3,000 EUR or 6,000 EUR per month. The tax office equalizes you either way.
It means that someone who went to university for 5 years to get a degree will have the same disposable income as an uneducated truck driver who started working at age 18.
This isn't "fair". This is punishing people with talent in order to pay for people without.
Anyone with competencies should take note and start quietly exiting society. (I have)
🇪🇸 Meanwhile in Costa Brava, Spain
Both Spain & France are on fire like never before right now.
44 people wanted for Arson in France, 16 in Spain - this is coordinated & deliberate.
The mainstream media has tried to portray the wildfires that is happening in Europe now as a result of climate change.
France just announced they have arrested 162 people in connection with starting fires.
