Hope history won't repeat:
- Socialists rise, promising unsustainable gains.
- Loyalists seize control as cracks appear.
- Media is controlled to mask economic decay.
- Public unrest erupts; government clamps down harder.
- Cycle spirals into authoritarianism.

It’s patently absurd that APPL isn’t smart enough to make their own AI, yet is capable of ensuring that OAI will protect your security & privacy! APPL has no clue what’s actually going on once they hand your data over to OAI. They’re selling you down the river.(June 24) @elonmusk

@sanjiva In reality this is happening anyway either through cheap labor or automation. Read about Myanmar kidnapping and forced labour. They democratise it so that this capability is not limited to most sophisticated and cruel.
Reality of good deed > Perception

@ChandimaKaru Absurdly misguided take. In a free market economy it is impossible to create that much wealth without creating much more value for fellow human being.
These are the people who increase the size of pie. Global hunger is miraculously down over last century.

.@SecRubio is right. Virtue Signalling is massively counter productive most of the time.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

Level of stupidity incomprehensible.

Port City was built at huge ecological cost to be a playground for the rich.

But with crony capitalists yet to bring yachts here, the public has turned it into Colombo's most child-friendly beach.

A standard Lankan story, redeemed by the only people who seem to do the redeeming

We are getting old before we are getting rich. Running out of time to extremely fast track economic growth.

SL has a higher population loss than Japan!

@NisansaDdS Nice. More government is what I want because govt has been the best service provider I ever experienced

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

@chamihin Absolutely. Sri Lanka dodged a bullet. Because, the downfall can reach a level that you can never recover.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

The idea that you can arm a South American nation to defend itself against United States is insanity.

[Recon & surveillance @Recon_surv]

BREAKING; As US continues to arm TAIWAN to the teeth to prepare for war with CHINA, CHINA is also Arming VENEZUELA to prepare for war with US!!!

Agree with Sumanthiran. But I'd use stronger language than "ill advised."
They could have charged him under s. 111 of the Anti-Corruption Act. Instead they used sections 386 and 388 of the Penal Code and section 5(1) of the Offences Against Public Property Act No 12 of 1982.
They threw in the last section to make it difficult to get bail (section 8 of Act No. 12 of 1982)..
They took him in on Friday, so that he would be kept in remand for at least the weekend.
The talk about falsification of records appears a red herring. If that was an issue they should have taken him in on s. 5(2) not sec. 5(1) of the Offences against Public Property Act.
The prior announcement of the remand by the govt sympathizer Thilakasiri suggests this was a pre-meditated political move.

@Dileep_Wije @Indooshan No. They are patriots. They can spend our money as they want.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

Do you remember Sri Lanka is run by a government with level of power no other democratic government in the world has. Executive presidency, 2/3 majority in parliament.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

Ranil jailed for extending a tour by a day to enjoy the day on public money apparently.
All other thugs are free.
Same logic will enable to arrest AKD one day for causing massive losses by holding back SOE restructuring as political favours for loyalist.

This is what he meant by: OpenAI gonna eat Microsoft alive. When this is clear OpenAI gonna compete against Microsoft’s core business.

Microsoft has peaked or about to be peak soon.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Join @xAI and help build a purely AI software company called Macrohard. It’s a tongue-in-cheek name, but the project is very real!

In principle, given that software companies like Microsoft do not themselves manufacture any physical hardware, it should be possible to simulate them entirely with AI.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

Sam Altman cannot afford this failure. Failure would mean apocalypse for him personally.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

My take on what’s happening in Sri Lanka is President paranoid about his legacy in a good way. He ignores ideological hard liners and move away from idiotic communist ideology.
But, the problem is he only move as least as necessary. At least we some chance of survival. Good

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

@dinidu Some migrated to Australia.

[Valhalla @hallofasgard]

OpenAI gonna be biggest lesson of sunk cost fallacy in the history for key investors who keep throwing money at it.
