As citizens, we need to stop normalizing the possibility that this could happen. We should never accept it, never joke about if social security still exists light heartedly, especially when the government can print money for anything else it desires. The repeated coordinated communication about Social Security going insolvent is trying to condition us to accept it. It is unacceptable.
@ExxAlerts@Ford Yes, they were factory installed for the longest time. You could also get ones installed by the dealer with the factory installed ones were the best they always worked and look decent.
@ExxAlerts If only @Ford didn’t decide to quit making them with the external keypad. Why eliminate a differentiator; other brands don’t have them and was unique to Ford. Also the dealer installed keypads don’t look as nice as when they came from the factory.

I am curious how this could bring billions to local economies. I don’t believe that to be true to build them. I understand there could be some temporary bump, but they also bring in a lot of outside construction labor. Additionally, they do end up raising water and electricity prices overtime the jobs that they do provide inside the data center aren’t really high paying. Also, a lot of local governments are giving them tax breaks. How do you frame that this actually helps a local economy; specifically the citizens of that economy?
🚨 BREAKING: CLAUDE HAS A SECRET MODE CALLED "WEALTH PROTOCOL."
It reads Naval Ravikant's entire wealth philosophy and applies it to YOUR specific situation.

�� Do you understand what happened in the last 24 hours?
> HSBC announced 20,000 job cuts.. 10% of their entire workforce.. because AI made those people unnecessary overnight
> Entry-level job postings are down 35% since 2023.. the first rung of the ladder doesn't exist anymore.. you can't "get your foot in the door" when the door got automated
> New businesses are creating fewer jobs.. the startups that were supposed to absorb laid-off workers aren't hiring either.. AI handles the first 5 roles now
> Jensen Huang told tech CEOs to "stop scaring people about AI".. the man whose company made $216 billion selling the chips powering every layoff on this list.. his advice? "shh.. be quieter about it"
> Bernie Sanders sat down and recorded a podcast with Claude AI.. asked it about mass data collection.. and the AI confirmed everything.. companies tracking your location.. your purchases.. your browsing.. selling it.. and using political microtargeting to fragment reality.. the AI snitched on its own industry to a US Senator.. on camera
> They officially announced Val Kilmer is starring in a new movie.. Val Kilmer died last year.. they're using AI to resurrect him frame by frame for a film called "As Deep As the Grave"
> A WNBA player launched an AI clone of herself.. fans can call it 24/7.. it has her voice.. her personality.. she doesn't even have to be awake
> JPMorgan warned that $40 to $150 billion in loans could be disrupted because AI is replacing the workers whose jobs backed those loans.. the 2008 playbook but with robots instead of houses
> A guy from North Carolina used AI to make hundreds of thousands of fake songs.. botted billions of streams.. and walked away with $8 million before getting caught.. first-ever criminal AI streaming fraud case
all of this happened in ONE day, See you tomorrow. It'll be worse.
