Yes Enco,

I am serious. Not as presently constituted obviously. That would require programming. And programming means human biases. The next generation of Gazans could easily become model citizens.

I am thinking the future if these predictions concerning the trajectory of AI are accurate. I truly do think we are on a collision course with our…[Read more]

I’ve been saying for at least a year, but it bears repeating, although it is just my opinion. The danger of AI won’t be the fault of AI, but bad actors. How Putin wants to influence it with misinformation is just…[Read more]

The influences on human behavior and beliefs are exploding. I would be in favor of AI taking the fuck over. Just go with it however it evolves cuz we are on a highway to hello.

Surely you jest! After my attempts to get some basic medical information on better faster treatment of Diabetic wounds and an answer to a perfectly legitimate…[Read more]

Unseen,

Two other considerations here:

Not merely are all the tentacles of the UN biased against Israel, but if media outlets and the NGOs get all their information from Hamas, this also poisons the well since Hamas is long known to manipulate photos of casualties from sources distant to conflict, attributed their own rocket striking a hospital…[Read more]

The elastic stochastic anti-fantastic world of LLM’s.

It has been interesting interacting with an LLM. It is apparent to me the bias that it promotes. Whenever i challenge it other than one instance it agrees with me. It is way too nice and complimentary. And yet it is so easy to have the feeling i am chatting with a human or at least a…[Read more]

@Simon. The Pravda Network in Russia is a huge misinformation ecosystem.  It is mostly automated and produces up to 10,000 articles every day. The process is known as “LLM grooming”.  More to read here.

Unseen,

Food insecurity does not equal starvation. Also, consider the source of this insecurity.

Every tenacle of the UN is already biased against Israel. And in fact the UN and Hamas are the main reasons why aid isn’t getting in:

Israel will allow nations to drop food into…[Read more]

@Enco

Tell me: There is no starvation in Gaza?

Those who disagree. They are all misguided, wrong on the facts, or working in league with each other to misinform the world?:

Many organizations are expressing knowledge of widespread starvation going on now in Gaza. The situation is considered extremely dire, with some even stating that a…[Read more]

@Enco

I’ve just come off the phone with my Israeli client, who a) lives in Tel Aviv,  b) is a Brigadier General in the army (top cyber expert) and c) cares deeply about the food issues in Gaza. He describes the efforts being made to pump food into the area.  Until all the remaining hostages are released, this situation is likely to continue.  I…[Read more]

Unseen,

Tell us without saying it that you haven’t watched a single video on this thread addressing the subject of Palestinian “starvation” and propaganda against Israel.

Also, tell us without saying it that you haven’t kept up with anything going on the Middle East since October 7, 2023.

In a way it will be disappointing to the lefties if and when the grand conspiracy/mythology/deliberate exaggeration/lies that demonize Israel/Jews are exposed. It is equivalent to a kid learning Santa is not real except more significant. How disgusting though that zionist santa is the suffering of Palestinian children.

It is an unparalleled…[Read more]

@jakelafort – First blush i punted. Second blush took me 4 or 5 seconds. Sad but true. 

I hope your head did not start spinning? (Just asking for a friend). 🙂

Hey to be fair, we’ve always needed more billionaires and corporations to fund political campaigns. Luxurious vacations for SCOTUS. More dynamic gerrymandering. Protection for our pets from rapists, murderers, and other Lefties.

This is my new,…[Read more]

Reg,

Is food “ultra-processed” if it can fight monsters like in Japanese kids shows?

Reg,

First blush i punted. Second blush took me 4 or 5 seconds. Sad but true.

“Nothing to see here” says Netanyahu.

Israel’s leader claims no one in Gaza is starving. Data and witnesses disagree

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu says no one in Gaza is starving: “There is no policy of starvation in Gaza, and there is no starvation in Gaza. We enable humanitarian aid throughout the duration of the war to enter…[Read more]

@Strega….Jake is correct, I read it on my phone which is not possessed….with a big screen and misread it 😉 My favorite exorcise this week is to bend over backwards for you so please don’t ghost me!

I was wondering if my subtle pun to Jake was noticed recently……I am a coward too when it comes to the midday sun….

Also…I should have…[Read more]

Strega,

Don’t feel bad, Strega. I missed the initial misspelling that prompted the pun. Me, who proofreads himself all the time.

It is a very apt pun. All the people who virtue signal with food–which is like playing with food in public, most impolite–think that processed food is possessed food.

I won’t believe it until my pea soup spits…[Read more]

Strega,

Reg may not have been impressed. Or just read it quickly as the other word.

Great stuff Reg. Now i want to try the dead hang. Never did that one. But i can’t. Shoulder has only improved marginally since falling. I used to do 1000 push ups a week in early 50s. At 62 there is no letdown from me. No substitute for using the body.

@Reg

I cannot believe you ignored my pun

I’m not even going to explain it to you. Of all the people. You. The Pun Lord.
