@RpsAgainstTrump The porch lights are on but no one's home

How can they justify leaving right now?

Diesel costs just hit an all-time high. Our nation is at war. The bond market is quivering. The urgency of AI regulation has come to a critical moment.

Congress should be working overtime. Instead Speaker Johnson sent them home. All to dodge one uncomfortable vote - much like his maneuvers last year to hold off the Epstein files.

You don't have to be a Democrat to find that disgraceful.

In less than seven weeks, Americans can change all this. 48 days to go.

@FmrRepMTG The Mar-a-lago Mafia as @ossoff just coined the term

I said it at the time (and before!), but I truly believe that American voters electing Donald Trump for a second term in 2024 was the dumbest and most self-harming choice made by an electorate in the history of humanity

I was encouraged this week to see the leaders of the frontier labs agree on the need for them to slow down the pace of AI development. Given the stakes, it’s a good and necessary first step.

But I’m even more encouraged by the growing recognition that how this powerful new technology develops should be at the center of our public debate.

I’ve been watching the progress on AI for over a decade now, and one thing that’s clear to me is that the potential impact of this technology is not overhyped. It’s also moving at lightning speed – and even faster than those who are engineering it can keep up with.

I’m not an AI accelerationist who believes it will lead to some techno-utopia, and I’m not a doomer who thinks it will inevitably lead to humanity’s destruction.

But whether this technology results in amazing breakthroughs in medicine, energy and education or unleashes huge economic disruptions, greater inequality, and potential catastrophe will depend on the choices that we make right now – choices that should be made not just by the companies involved, but by all of us.

@HealthRanger The more I read about this, the more I think its partially true. The problem with this path is the entire US economy (and therefore a large part of the global economy) is propped up by 10 companies relying on this bubble to continue growing.

@leadlagreport Interesting...perhaps not no.

[Robert Criz @RobertCriz1]

We live in a country where an alcoholic runs our military, a former heroin addict is in charge of our health and they both report to a convicted felon & adjudicated rapist. And Christians support them all. What a time to be alive 🤪

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

If you were young in 2001, or weren’t even born yet, it can be hard to imagine what 9/11 felt like. The shock of that beautiful, cloudless morning. The heartbreak of the families whose loved ones were taken with such swiftness and cruelty. The realization that the forces of malevolence and violence were closer, and the future less certain, than we knew.

But in the days that followed, we felt something else, too. Pride in the rescue workers who had rushed to the scene, and the passengers who had stormed the cockpit. Admiration for the men and women who left behind lives of comfort to serve their country. A deep resolve that nothing would break the will of a truly United States of America.

Today Michelle and I are remembering those we lost that day, and those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the wars that followed. We pray for their families. And we hope Americans everywhere remember the true lesson of 9/11: that we can survive even our darkest days as long as we move forward as one nation and one people.

@MeghanMcCain @MeghanMcCain I respect a lot of your takes but this is odd.

Joy + humor can exist alongside sadness + grief. In fact, it usually MUST in order to move through it.

Have ya ever laughed at a joke at a funeral? It's really healing and brings ppl together over shared remembrance.

@krassenstein Meanwhile his search history is just sofa sales

[Matt Goldstein @goalstein]

@tedcruz This is dumb. Joy and humor can exist alongside sadness and grief. In fact it must in order to move through it. I'd stick to things you actually know about @SenTedCruz like abandoning your constituents during bad weather.

@atrupar How much coke did he bag from Don Jr. is my question

I resigned from Anthropic today. I spent the last three years doing pretraining research at both OpenAI and Anthropic. Neither company is acting responsibly. They are racing straight to self-improving superintelligence and gambling with our lives. More thoughts below.

@ProjectLincoln Americans can't afford groceries and hes talking about the stop/start button on cars like it's a huge win. The cognitive dissonance is astounding.
