@honeycombio Her team also skipped the mandates & built a set of AI values instead:
"Every AI output has to have a human owner. If you don't want your name on it, it's probably not good work."
A group of retired military generals and former senior civil servants say they met President Mnangagwa TWICE this month to advise him to abandon plans to extend his term but he told them: “Whoever wins, wins.” They warn that the constitution will not be sold to the highest bidder
.@SecScottBessent: "A nation that cannot manufacture, mine, ship, or refine its needs gradually cedes its strength and sovereignty to others. That is a dangerous dependency for any country; it is an unacceptable one for the United States of America."
AI seems smart when you ask it about things you know nothing about, but once you start asking it about topics you are actually an expert in, you realize it is just commoditized, polished, and amplified mediocrity.
In college I once stayed up all night drinking, was crossing the street when a car of guys from my rugby team pulled up and said they were short for the away game (I wasn't schedule to play), and needed bodies.
Took a 1.5 hour nap on the drive, played a full game, then had beers again.
But 3 glasses of wine breaks a 33 year old. Jesus.
To be fair, it gets harder as you get older. And I drink less at 42 than I did at 33. But being this soft is still a problem.
The aid industry raises money by showing the world images of African children with flies in their eyes and swollen bellies.
That money is supposed to help us.
But those images do something else too. They plant a belief.
One of my employees, Yahara, told me she grew up thinking Africans were inferior because every magazine showed people like her looking pathetic while the world "saved" them.
Aid didn't just fail to fix poverty. It taught an entire generation of Africans to feel small.
On the day that Criminal Kudakwashe Tagwirei's son was married an event that drew the cream of ZANU-PF's political and business establishment General Constantino Chiwenga and Reserve Bank Governor John Mushayavanhu were not in that marquee.
They were at Chivaraidze Farm. In Goromonzi.Some will call this coincidence. I call it a coordinates report. In military intelligence, we were taught that absence is never neutral. Where a man is tells you something. Where a man is not tells you everything.
Criminal Tagwirei's wedding was not merely a family celebration. It was a demonstration of political gravity a gathering designed to show who orbits whom. When the Vice President of the Republic and the Governor of the Reserve Bank are absent from that orbit, one of two things has happened:
Either they were not invited.
Or they chose the farm.
Both conclusions are extraordinary.
If they were not invited then the cartel has grown bold enough to exclude the second most powerful constitutional office in Zimbabwe from its social architecture.
That is not a snub. That is a power map.If they chose the farm then General Chiwenga is assembling something deliberately away from the noise, away from the champagne, away from the cameras. A productive farm. Quiet land. Trusted company. In Goromonzi.
Chivaraidze Farm is not just a farm. Under General Chiwenga's family directorship, it is a statement of self-sufficiency of a man who has decided he does not need criminal Tagwirei's table to eat.
I have watched this theatre for decades. I know what it looks like when men are drawing lines.
The lines are being drawn.

Malume Temba, with due respect, I have no interest in participating in endless social media exchanges or personalised political theatrics. Handina zera nemi pamakore, nor in political experience as you claim.
As a young person and a cadre of the Party, I do not speak on behalf of the Presidium, nor do I speculate about what the leadership is thinking or feeling. Please do not drag me into that space.
My position remains guided by Party discipline, Party processes and the mandate entrusted to me by His Excellency, the President and First Secretary of ZANU PF, Dr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa.
Not every issue requires public commentary. Some of us remain focused on governance, empowerment, development and serving the people.
I will therefore not be engaging further on this matter.
