WATCH: We're building the most dictator-ready tech in history. Why? Meet the frontier AI trilemma. You can: 1️⃣Operate globally 2️⃣Comply with restrictive 'safety' laws 3️⃣Serve unrestricted cognition But you can only pick 2! Given US directive suspending Fable 5 & Mythos, I think state control is coming even faster than I predicted last week.

Do you know what the date is today? Today is the anniversary of the Tiananmen square massacre. Take a moment to watch this video. Dictators hope that if they make us afraid to speak the truth for long enough... we'll forget it. And the next generation will never learn. This is how history is erased. From: A Day to Remember, 2005, by Liu Wei in #China
