The wealthy elite (not specific to Dave) want everyone to believe AI is the future & the end-all-be-all because they’ve invested heavily into it. They need a return on their investment and this narrative helps secure that. imo, basic skills, creativity, & critical thinking will become even more valuable

Pharrell has always kind of reminded me of Arthur’s homosexual rat teacher

FL police use A.I. to identify a vehicle theft suspect from surveillance video. Based on an "85% match" they arrest and charge Jalil Richardson. He spends 3 months in jail. He loses his job, his home, and custody of his kids.

Richardson lives in N.C.
He's never been to Florida. And his timesheet shows him at work at the time of the crime. No one checked before charging him. https://t.co/2AcQYwq30f

Fanon wrote that, the colonised person uses religion to release tensions that should be directed at the oppressor.

The energy that should fuel revolt gets, redirected into the spiritual.

I think there’s something deeply wrong with the way I resent having a job. I know it’s fine morally to not want to be coerced to work for survival, but most people have the ability to suck it up. But I am haunted by the reality of my one life on this planet being owned by others.

Let me trace the timeline here because nobody's connecting it.

Step 1: Scrape the entire internet. Every book, every article, every conversation, every piece of art, every forum post. Do it without asking. Do it without paying.

Step 2: Train a model on all of it. Call it "artificial intelligence."

Step 3: Go to BlackRock's Infrastructure Summit and announce: "We see a future where intelligence is a utility, like electricity or water, and people buy it from us on a meter."

Step 3 is where you sell people's own knowledge back to them. On a meter.

They took the collective output of human thought, compressed it into a model, and now they want to charge you by the token to access a version of what you and everyone you know already created.

One Reddit user put it perfectly: "They stole all this data from us, the people, our life's work, creativity, art, by devouring the internet and blowing through all copyright laws. Now they want to sell it back to us in the form of a utility."

Imagine if someone photocopied every book in the public library, burned the library down, and then opened a subscription service for the copies.

That's the metered intelligence business model.

And they're pitching it to infrastructure investors as though they invented water.

You really have to admire how deeply embedded the Black entertainment class is in counterinsurgency if we go from the 2020 protests to a white man making approved George Floyd jokes at a Kevin Hart roasting session. We are cooked.

A Portland mother was falsely charged with theft. Misidentified because she and the suspect are both Black. She waited months for a public defender. 1,280 people in her county were waiting too. They lost jobs. Lost housing. Lost custody of their children. https://t.co/ENtGgKZIdm

I don’t have to survive it all. But I would like to outlive the bipartisan regime.

Any man who doesn't outright condemn Diddy (or any other abuser) is ok with harming you or you being harmed. Its that simple.

[c @sadeforehead]

a fucking loser!

[Mall @thelovelyfall]

Artificial confidence, holds sympathy for an abuser, fake progressive and disses people who call him out instead of proving them wrong, transphobic and homophobic; there is zero substance behind his art and person. I have a genuine disdain for this man

[We’re Losing Recipes! @SoualiganAmazon]

So J Cole doesn’t want to *checks notes* “kick a man when he’s down” (a rapist and domestic abuser) but he had no problem writing snarky bars about Noname for reading and getting more in tuned with black radical tradition? Ok.

[Soulaan Queen ❤️🔱🖤 @soulqueen500]

Zohran's wife was 15 and a racist, homophobic loser.

Tamir Rice was 12 years old and shot dead for playing with a toy gun in a park.

Non-black kids get to have a "racist phase" and infantalized as grown adults while literal black children get killed for being kids.

[Nerdeen Kiswani @NerdeenKiswani]

Notice how much military propaganda right now centers Black women dancing, eating, buying houses, talking about deployment like a lifestyle upgrade. Representation being used to brand empire that oppresses them at home, now using them to sell violence carried out abroad.
