It should be a much bigger deal that @WIRED fails to mention that its own former Editor-in-Chief Nick Thompson (Jonah Lehrer’s former editor at the @NewYorker) is listed in this group of members/attendees of Peter Thiel’s secret society, Dialog.
It’s a bipartisan agreement because a significant number of republicans and democrats want to kill the MOU because they seek perpetual hostilities with Iran and the Israel lobby is aggressively pressure them to kill it. Clearly it won’t survive 10 mins in Congress.

@edzitron I mean he’s not totally wrong at this specific point in time - corporate leadership are drooling like dogs asking for their employees to implement AI everywhere no matter how inefficient and dumb. There’s a niche where you can do well by giving these CEOs what they’re asking for
Who is this helpless-president routine meant for? The Iranians don’t believe the US president is incapable of curbing Washington’s dog, no one with a brain believes it. Apparently Ravid’s readers & some MAGA dead-enders still believe, because it partly absolves Trump/USA.
There you have it. Anthropic's CEO said it: The murder of more than 100 schoolgirls in Minab targeted by Anthropic's CLAUDE "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines." Time to rise up against these technofeudal war criminals.
