We cannot consider #AI to be morally neutral. In reality, every technical tool embodies choices and priorities through what it measures, ignores, and optimizes, and how it classifies people and situations. Ethical discernment cannot be limited to asking whether we are using a system for good or bad purposes. It must also examine how that system is designed and what vision of the human person and society is embedded in the data and models that guide it. #MagnificaHumanitas

done with advanced stats

basketball is about who’s a bitch and who isn’t and Chet Holmgren is a fucking bitch
Pope Leo XIV on AI:
“Artificial intelligence needs to be disarmed. The word [disarmed] is strong I know, but deliberately chosen because this moment needs words capable of attracting attention, awakening consciences, and indicating paths forward for humanity.”

🚨 Real Madrid are internally planning with Endrick as part of the squad for next season.
The Brazilian wants to return and Real plan to believe in him after Olympique Lyon loan, as @diarioas reports.
Final approval as soon as manager situation sorted.
If Endrick stays, Gonzalo García can leave. 👋🏼
Graham Platner: “The anti-trans campaign in Maine is funded by an out-of-state billionaire to make sure we have this discussion and we don’t talk about raising his taxes. That’s why it exists. I think there are like two trans kids that compete in high school sports in Maine? There are 40K Mainers who are going to lose healthcare because of the lack of the ACA extension. One of those things seems very important and real to me. One of them seems like an invented culture war scare to keep people divided”
Pope Leo has urged priests to not to use AI to write their sermons:
“Like all the muscles in the body, if we do not use them, if we do not move them, they die. The brain needs to be used, so our intelligence must also be exercised a little so as not to lose this capacity.”
Gambling has DIRECTLY lead to:
- Players consistently getting death threats
- Serious family violence due to gambling addiction & losses
- Players being forced to go against team medical staff on minute restrictions
- Fining teams for prioritising their future
It’s a disease.
This should be the nail in the coffin for Adam Silver.
The fact that gambling companies played any role at all in punishing tanking teams is absolutely ridiculous.
Adam Silver has to go.
In NBA history, only one player has reached all of the following marks before the All-Star break in a season:
1000 points
475 rebounds
400 assists
250 free throws made
75 threes made
30 blocks
That one player is the @nuggets' Nikola Jokić this year.
He missed 16 games.
