I'm suddenly noticing that several people on different podcasts are casually mentioning the example of the one ring as a "neutral technology" that is neither good nor bad. That it just depends on whoever is wielding it "just like all technology".

Sequoia's Ravi Gupta and Pat Grady on potential layoffs and why the AI doomers are wrong: "Technology is neither good nor bad, it's what we do with it. The same technology that powers a nuclear bomb can power a nuclear power plant." "A lot of what people are doing when they go and talk about the technology is they talk about all the things that might happen. I would rather us talk about the fact that it's going to get more and more powerful, and it's more and more incumbent on all of us to make sure we use it for something great." "If I could give my kids one thing, it wouldn't be kindness. It wouldn't be curiosity. It would be agency. The technology is going to be what all of us make of it."

The misinformation that we see from muggles is due to a lack of understanding around the benefits of the technology. This is a technology that's beneficial for all humankind. The burden of proof is on us to build apps that prove it.

"Otto Preminger's 'Anatomy of a Murder' (1959) also had a tremendous impact on the freedom of the screen. The theme of the movie, most eloquently spoken by James Stewart, that people are neither all good nor all bad is worth remembering daily." --- Peter Bogdanovich

Is it just me or is James Carville the only one on our side that understands exactly the moment that we are in? The severity of it all?

Eli Lake: "The one thing that is just absolutely driving me crazy, is that I'm already noticing on social media that you're seeing, like, millions of people and tons of engagement for posts that are baseless that are saying that [Charlie Kirk] was assassinated by Israel…" "My concern is that it's only a matter of time before Tucker [Carlson] goes there…"

Bennet: Are you aware that one of the people you put on the panel, Dr. Robert Malone, claimed that the commonly used mrna vaccine, causes a form of AIDS… that statement is not true just as it wasn't true when you wrote that African AIDS is entirely different from western AIDS

My last word on the "olodo uprising": You can keep on repeating to yourself, "The algorithms only show you more of what you like, so the problem is with us not with the social media platforms" as much as you like. It won't make it true. The algorithms are NOT neutral. You're just too delusional to accept the reality that rich, powerful people who pay billions for publicity and advertisement will never look at a technology like social media and leave it alone to be "neutral". If you believe these platforms are neutral, then you are not different from Peller and his internet tribe. You're just an olodo with better articulation.

In my new interview with Andy Weir, he clarifies his position on "social commentary": ANDY: “I’m not trying to change society and I'm not trying to change anyone's opinion of anything. I firmly consider myself just an entertainer. I'm just writing stories to entertain. I'm not trying to set your opinion or change your mind on anything. When you're done with one of my books, I want you to put it back on the shelf and say, "That was cool. I enjoyed reading that..." "I'm not here to solve a pessimism epidemic. All I can do is just be me. I'm not pessimistic. I think humans are really awesome. I think technology is really awesome because technology is then put into the hands of humans who are awesome." "People are afraid of AI, but AI can do things no human can. I'm like, "So can a forklift." If I give you a hammer, you could build a house or you could murder someone. There's nothing about the hammer that does it. And most people use hammers to build houses." "So I'm not afraid of technology because I'm not afraid of my fellow humanity. I'm optimistic that way."

Mayor Brandon Johnson just defunded a gunshot detection technology because activists accused it of racism This is what Chicago is replacing it with: 1. Investments in people 3. Moving away from policing 2. Hope that some future technology is discovered that solves mental illness

Larry Ellison: “Any technology can be misused” Ellison argues that we should be very careful with respect to banning technology: “Any technology can be misused. Airplanes can be misused, and airplanes have been misused. That doesn’t mean we should ban the building of airplanes. Technologies are neither good nor bad… Overwhelmingly technologies have been used to make us richer, smarter, live longer, and have better lives. But every technology can be misused, including the oldest, most-basic technology.” He gives fire as an example: “Fire is an amazing technology. The first cave entrepreneur who discovered fire said, ‘This is great. It’s cold in the winter; we can use fire to heat the cave. We can use fire to cook our food. We can build a big fire at the mouth of the cave to keep the bears out of the cave. This is a fabulous technology.’… Then there was this one guy in the cave who said fire was very dangerous: ‘People will be burned at the stake. It’ll be used for torture. Very bad. We’ve got to ban and stop fire now.’ And again, my point is that any technology can be misused.” Ellison concludes: “My point is that any technology can be misused… We don’t ban airplanes because they might be misused. We don’t ban fire because it might be misused… We should punish the people who misuse the [technology]. And in a democracy we can do that.”

Patrick Njiru: Japan is on fire, 130 million people are all glued, and tomorrow morning the whole country will be talking about the safari rally. Of all the WRC events, the safari is unique, just like the President said. It is good that he has given it to the private sector so that it can be moved up to the next step level. One of those step levels is to sell merchandise #CitizenSundayLive
