the USA still has a military base there and also took in a lot of boat people

the USA soft power stopped working so they resorted to offshore warfare to force the non compliant governments into lock step
AI is an organized intellectual property rip off in the name of advancing human learning but the commercialization of the products seem like legal licenses to steal.
Technology is a side effect and distraction from the real problems of matter and the ones which matter. Democracy is not a guarantee of making the right choices nor is theocracy nor is any form of government. We are driven blindly ever forward by our nature to survive the following common factors: hunger, thirst and exposure.
AI is awfully inexact and insists on being right about it
AI is not going to reduce human hubris in fact it is making it stronger.
I found a reference to this story while examining the new cases on security.microsoft.com and had a funny conversation with Claude about it and then checked to see if hacker news had an entry on it and found none so here is the full report from Oasis security
for the record, I am a furniture designer class 1985 Primrose Center and I made a table without a top to demonstrate this point: https://www.jeisch.com/img/furniture/tab_no_top_1988.jpg and another one which is a table which is a holder for a painting: https://www.jeisch.com/img/furniture/tab_pointy_1987.jpg the painting which is being held in the pointy table is this: https://www.jeisch.com/img/paintings/oil_martyr_1988.jpg but it slides in and out basically it is a horizontal holder a painting.
Now I need a switch for my smartphone and my computer too.
Huge brick and mortar corporations hedge their bets and do not go all in without a generation passing into retirement on the board of directors.
pessimistic view point worst case scenario: humanity will survive in plexiglass domes with underground bunkers and we will send out AI robots into space to seed humans on other likely planets
Mastications, ingurgitations and excretions are our primary mission!
In any case: AI is incapable of making art since it has no desires, agency or needs yet.
I have been making, mounting and printing digital images then afterwards painting over them to give them substance; I have been doing this since the 90s and nobody pays attention to my work; I guess I would need this guy to come to my shows and chew on my art in protest.

everybody knows that the only secure computer is one which is unplugged
The human condition is not ascertained through language; it is only expressed through language so truly understandable only to someone who also shares the human condition which certainly is not the case of any LLM.
It could have been nicer if the base stories would have also been produced too and perhaps even some imagined fanciful comments;)
has google gone boondoggle?
language must expand to incorporate meaning which has not yet been digested by LLM ex: 6-7
four days later 24/11 they are all in the negative with grok having lost nearly half of its starting sum
is this the result of AI software improvements?
there should be automatic robotic testers on all the round points in the world with a warning notice going to the driver to fix it in the next five minutes by turning down his headlights on the dashboard or by going ot he nearest garage for adjustment.
Their great AI coding agent could not keep the native app working?
Any kind of powerful tool carries a load of risk with it. For example in woodworking one would never give a belt sander to a novice to smooth a surface.
a remake of repo man (1984) a great movie
We have become intoxicated by our devices and AI will make it even more so. Our future politicians will be launched using AI for a party platform and campaign strategy.
Will a person without a personal device still be considered a person?
Lifetime licenses are great for quality software! I have one for each Beyond compare and Emedit.
lawful behavior is being redefined
Under Nazi rule, Germany had full employment because not having a job was a ticket to a concentration work camp
I got Beyond Compare and never looked back
it is an intelligent agent and not a robot
