BREAKING: MICROSOFT JUST ANNOUNCED TO BAN ITS OWN ENGINEERS FROM USING AI DUE TO THE COST OF USING IT.
VP OF NVIDIA SAID, “THE COST OF AI FOR MY TEAM WAS MORE THAN HUMANS”
“AI CAN COST MORE THAN HUMAN WORKERS NOW”
Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.
Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.
Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."
Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."
Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.
They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.
One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."
Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.
That's the metered intelligence business model.
And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.
The artist behind this painting, Criselda Vasquez, painted this portrait of her parents in 2017. The man in this painting, her father, was recently taken by ICE. He has lived in the United States for forty years. This loss has made it hard for the family to support themselves. If you want to support them, you can go to their GoFundMe here:

a room full of educated individuals collectively boo at the mere mention of ai. if this isn’t proof that ai was specifically designed for willfully ignorant morons than idk what is
this is a completely unhinged thing to do that has somehow been normalized under capitalism. imagine explaining to someone 300 years ago the idea of destroying 420k trees cuz a company went bankrupt
Shrinkflation pisses me off so bad because not only are you ripping me off but you're gaslighting me. I go talking about how there's less crackers in each sleeve and people treat me like I'm crazy. What's actually crazy is what we're putting up with from these corpos.
Take a good look folks.
These are the Minnesota boundary waters. Every Republican senator voted to allow a Chilean billionaire to mine it. The minerals will go to China.
This truly enrages me.
It should you as well.
Fuck, and I mean fuck…
The @GOP 🖕
BREAKING: The Senate just passed the legislation allowing the devastation of the Boundary Waters.
The motion passed 50-49, and now goes to Donald Trump’s desk.
The way Republicans passed this bill that prevents future administrations from issuing protections for Superior National Forest, so this pristine land will be exploited in perpetuity unless Congress intervenes to reverse this decision.
The state of Minnesota can still block the Chilean mining corporation from operating in Superior National Forest and protect the Boundary Waters from pollution.
This is absolutely insane
A concerned resident in Illinois tries to voice her concerns about a Data Center
Joliet, Illinois councilman Pat Mudron immediately shuts her down saying she "cannot comment on that"
They won’t even let residents question them
She says “I’m gonna comment on it anyway. You have officially sold out every single resident in Joliet”
These people very clearly do not work for their residents
And just like that, it’s completely VANISHED from the media.
A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children.
Let’s keep this in the spotlight every day
🚨 Do you understand what Apple just did..
the company that built its entire brand on "we don't sell ads.. we sell products".. is now putting advertising inside Apple Maps..
Steve Jobs stood on stage and said the iPhone was about the user experience.. no distractions.. "it just works"..
now you're going to get a McDonald's ad while you're trying to not miss your exit..
Apple charged you $1,200 for the phone.. $100/year for iCloud.. $10/month for Apple Music.. $7/month for Apple TV.. and after all of that.. they still want ad money..
this is the same company that ran an entire ad campaign attacking Google for tracking you.. "privacy.. that's iPhone".. remember that?..
turns out privacy was just the sales pitch until they figured out how to sell you themselves.
Yes, because undocumented people typically enter the country through commercial flights that requires multiple identification checks, a visa, and being put through immigration scrutiny.
Makes perfect sense.
ICE and DHS are active in The U.S. Virgin Islands. That's the Caribbean.
Those terrorists are now active in the Caribbean, and they're kidnapping Black people.
I SAID THIS WOULD HAPPEN.
I said the U.S. is trying to colonise the Caribbean, and ICE and DHS are a paramilitary force
