🚨Governor DeSantis says people are realizing how much Artificial Intelligence SUCKS and want nothing to do with it! “Artificial intelligence has become VERY unpopular. You remember like a year ago everyone said ‘oh you know AI it's we got to go all in you know we just need to...

DeSantis seems like the only sensible politician with common sense

Ugh. He's either doing this for optics - for the "we don't like AI" crowd, or he doesn't really know much about AI. Either way is not good.

He is conflating two different things and counting on the audience not to notice. AI-generated slop is real and worth criticizing. But using the worst outputs of a technology to argue against the entire category is like judging the internet by spam email. The question worth asking is not whether bad AI content exists, it obviously does, but whether the people using AI well are gaining an advantage that everyone else will eventually need to close. That answer has not changed regardless of how the politics around it shift.

Disagree with him on this. AI can replace 90% of government, college and hospital admins.

Garbage in garbage out still applies. The difference is scale and gullibility. Critical thinking is key. Drift and hallucination are real. It is a TOOL. It is NOT an u questionable solution.

@ConceptualJames And we don’t want multi hundred acre data centers being built in our small communities eating up space and valuable resources.

@joey_tweedy You think DeSantis sucks and you want nothing to do with him. Remember?

Melania Trump literally walked out with an AI robot named Pluto and suggested our children should be brought up and educated by it. Where was Captain Lapdog on that one? Decorated Ted Cruz Syndrome if I’ve ever seen it.

DeSantis is just pissed because AI is now smarter than he is. Big surprise. Truth is, he's just being a fucking attention whore again. Seriously, can we draft his ass and send him to Iran?

Finally... a politician telling the tech j/o's what we're all thinking and saying. I love DeSantis again!

We are a social species, everything possible should be done via legislation to protect, preserve and promote human social interaction, the only sane thing to do. AI should be reserved for more effective phones, that actively promote direct human social interactions.

Maybe it's time for politicians to be replaced by AI. Clearly we haven't had a real representative for decades.

This is like listening to your relative that didn’t save a dime their entire life talk about finances. DeSantis should stick to whatever else it is he knows nothing about.

This is wrong, yes there is slop but there are tons of examples of why ai is better for us. Why would anyone want to work some bullshit job when we could have robots do it for us. Last I checked all of us only go to work for a paycheck. Ai would allow us to focus on other areas where we need to get better. We weren’t meant to be slaves I mean employees.

This isn’t a surprising take fron @GovRonDeSantis. He’s been overtly anti-AI for some time now. I suspect he knows little but what he’s been told, and that those doing the telling have their own agenda.

I have an AI project, and I agree 100%. The practical use for AI is local as a glorified encyclopedia. Should not be used for generation or automation, as it is degenerative.

He seems to be trying to have it both ways. On the one hand, AI is no good (slop) yet on the other hand, despite being no good, it's going to take everybody's jobs? 🤔

Twitter is slop. Facebook is slop. Instagram is slop. So is Snapchat and TikTok. AI is ascending. You will get garbage in the meantime. And people will always use tech to create trash.

“You're not entitled to get what you want. I love you. You're entitled to earn what you're willing to go work for. And that's true in our families, in our parenting, in our marriage, in our companies, in society. If we want it, go earn it. If that's positivity, have positivity. I think and I am a positive person. I am jacked. I am excited. Obviously, you can feel my energy through technology here, I hope. Frankly, think positive people just need to get a lot stronger. I really do. I mean, I don't want to call them weak because people hear that differently but it kind of is. Look, if you want that positivity to stick, you’ve got to get tougher. Not sacrifice your love and your care and your empathy, but you got to get tough. And then we have to figure out how to love the people who are cynical because I don't think there's a ton of bad people in the world and I don't think there's a ton of bad people on teams. But I do think there are people who've been burned out. I do think there are people who have been through things in their lives. They've been through things in their company. They're experiencing stuff somewhere else. For whatever reason, they just kind of got run down and cynical and negative, or whatever. Or they're just wired a little different than we are. And I don't to hate on those people. I want to win those people. They don't have to be like me. They don't have to have my energy. But I want those people on my team. I want to love those people. And if eventually they choose that they don't believe in the same things that I believe in, I want to make it really clear and obvious that they don't want to be on this team because we're not about that. You know what I'm saying? I want it to be very easy, obvious, that, ‘Hey I should not be on this team. Because this team is full of very positive people who have great energy and talk to people, not about them.’ And we solve problems. We don't complain. We don't get defensive. We're real. I recognize I'm imperfect and I'm vulnerable to show you that about me. I want to be on that kind of a team. And if there's somebody who doesn’t believe in that stuff, I want to make it really easy for them to say, ‘Look, I don't want to be on this team. I don't wanna live like you guys live. I don't want do what you guys do.’ And then I really hope that that person leaves us and goes and joins our competitor.”

Asked Skylar Diggins about Seattle’s mentality/inability to close out games ahead of the playoffs: “I promise you, I swear I'm not even being facetious. If we had these answers to these questions, you know what I'm saying? This game is tough. It's hard to win in this league. It's hard to win in this league. And obviously, yes, we're disappointed with where we are, that we're in this predicament. But Nneka has said it in the past too. It's not going to be a woe is me. Games are still going to be played. You know, we still have to come out and compete. And most importantly, you know, we have to be professional. And you know, I lacked professionalism in that last press conference too. I want to apologize to the room. Apologize to Nneka. She always comes out here, handles herself exceptionally, and I handle myself poor. And you know, I got to be a better leader when it's hard and it's hard to be a leader. But I owe you that apology in front of everybody in the room. So I just wanted to say that before we left. But yeah, obviously it's tough. We're pissed. Yeah, that's what you guys want to hear? You want to see it. This is what it is when you're passionate. We do everything passionately, and that's what it is. We don't want to fucking be in this predicament. But here we are. So we're going to continue to show up and be pros every day, be leaders by example, how we come in and prepare and come out and get ready to compete, and that's all we can do. And if we don't do that, then we don't deserve to be in the playoffs.” @OffTheRecordW | #WNBA

Austen Allred on Gauntlet AI: "We're very up front that we're 80 to 100 hours a week. If you think that that's a terrible idea, please don't come." "We're in Austin, all right? That's a sacrifice for a lot of people. If you don't think like coming to Austin for 100 hours a week and jamming on AI unpaid and just building stuff to figure out how much you can learn and hopefully getting a job on the other side... if you don't think that's awesome, that's totally fine. Please don't come." "There are some psychos out there that think that that's a good time. We wanna collect all those psychos. So come all, come all ye crazy people. And if that's not for you, that's okay." "There are companies that come to us and say, "Hey, we want, you know, 100 engineers that are going to sit in our division of printer drivers and sit there." And I'm like, "They would kill themselves." The people that are coming to Gauntlet would not do that. And so we turn companies down too." So we know who we are, we know what we stand for. You know, it helps that I'm one of those people that would've loved that. So is Ash Tilawat, and so is everybody else that works at Gauntlet. "So it's not hard for us to find other crazy people like ourselves. And that doesn't have to be you. That's okay." "We're not trying to empire build or solve all of humanity's greatest problems. We know that there's a limit to who we're addressing and what we're addressing at any given time." "So our goal is to be the best thing we can possibly be for that weird island of misfits. And for the companies that need a weird island of misfits, we'll be that all day long."

Is it possible to have an entire company of A players? Adam has 400 employees and a $150 billion market cap. His answer to this question was insightful: “We expect our engineers to be product people so we don't have much of a product org. We expect them to be A players. Now to have a team of A players you've got to be able to recognize A players. I know that Giovanni is an A-plus player. I know that he has no tolerance for anything that's not an A player. He's very quick to go "You've got to be at this level or you're out." Putting people like that in leadership roles allows me to have confidence because they're impatient and they're not going to enable talent that's not qualified in these key roles. You're always turning over people that don't meet your need. You want to be as lean as possible. Now when you have an A player you don't want to cut those people. Those people are super powerful—especially as we go forward. You're going to need lean teams that know how to use AI. Your best people know how to use AI better than your mediocre people and it's not by some sort of linear function. It's much greater than that. Our team is constructed to have leaders who are A players or A-plus players who can see the A players underneath and who have no patience for anything that's not a A player and are very willing to fire on sight if they feel like you're not cutting it. Because we are lean most of our people are very smart. But sometimes being smart is not enough. You've got to be really into building what we want to build. If you're not cut out for it you're going to get really good severance and you go off along your way.”

Whitney Webb "It sucks to find out that the mob runs the world... [so] do you want to say, screw you guys, we're going to... get off your... slave plantation?... [because] we can't really keep losing money and rights without being so deep in a hole that we can't... climb out" This clip of Webb (Whitney Webb), a contributing editor of Unlimited Hangout and author of One Nation Under Blackmail, is taken from an interview with Peter McCormack (The Peter McCormack Show) posted to YouTube on September 4, 2025. -----------------Partial transcription of clip-------------- "It's not just about burning it down, it's about putting something better in its place. Of course. And so I think the solutions there, you know, some people are like, oh, Whitney, your work is so demoralizing. Well, I'm like, yeah, it sucks to find out that the mob runs the world, you know, but the question is, or do you just want to let them keep running it because it bums you out, or do you want to say, screw you guys, we're going to build something else and get off your, you know, slave plantation? "And I am in the group of, I would like to build something else. I have three kids. I do not want them living in a world run by the mob. So what are you going to do about it? I mean, it starts locally, it starts with your community, because that's where we can actually affect change. Voting for left or right, blue or red. I mean, it's just this ping pong thing where nothing fundamental is changing. "And so to affect that change, we have to do it ourselves. And you think this would be a core American value? Individualism, individual responsibility. But a lot of people just don't care. And so, you know, that sucks. But I think those of us that do care need, to take steps to be as independent from the system as possible. Because every so often, this predator class, they do wealth transfers or they orchestrate and manufacture events and they make a big grab, not just for our money, but for our rights. And we're at the point where we can't really keep losing money and rights without being so deep in a hole that we can't climb ourself out. Can't climb out. "So what, what should we do before that happens? There is an important window of time to do something about it in our local community and for our families and our friends and our neighbors. And we have to do something because if we don't and that thing happens. Oh, well, I watched all these podcasts and learned about how corrupt everything is. But, you know, and I think they spend a lot of time trying to keep us distracted on all sorts of things and sucked into things that don't matter. So that we just don't give them the finger, basically. And that's what we really need to do."
