Being part of a generation that was told “Wikipedia is not a source” makes it genuinely baffling to me that jobs are now telling people to just use ChatGPT for everything.

I've read the entire Israeli "Civil Commission" report on Oct 7 sexual violence.

It consists largely, if not entirely, of recycled second and third hand allegations that were discredited two years ago, many by Israeli media but also by independent outlets like The Grayzone, Electronic Intifada, and Mondoweiss.

The most graphic allegations were copy-and-pasted from the NY Times infamously debunked "Screams Without Words" feature, which resulted in the cancellation of a NY Times podcast on the article, a staff-wide revolt, a desperate internal investigation to stop leaks, and the firing of the article's lead Israeli reporter.

Many of the other allegations are sourced to Rami Davidian, a star of Sheryl Sanderberg's unintentionally fictional documentary, "Screams Before Silence," who was unmasked as a serial fabricator who spun out fake Oct 7 atrocity stories for lucrative lecture fees.

The report appears to have been rushed to print after Israeli intel learned that Nick Kristof was to publish his report on the systematic rape of Palestinian prisoners, and was disseminated through a coalition of Israeli-sponsored MAGA influencers, AIPAC-owned politicians, and mainstream US media outlets.

No, you cannot walk 10,000 steps daily, get 8 hours of sleep, cook every night, clean every day, take care of a family, make time for your own hobbies, and still be productive at work every day. This is not just propaganda, it is nonsense. Free yourself from it.

I’m fine with just ignoring reese witherspoon, sandra bullock and anyone else who tries to give us a girlboss argument for AI

[AI Highlight @AIHighlight]

🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now.

The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left.

Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops.

If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time.

The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.

The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy.

They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand.

The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker.

The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own.
