The moment they can sign a juicy contract that involve tracking/deporting/killing/denying insurance claim/benefits & profiling people, they will. This is about the continuation of concentration of power in the hands of a few against the poorest and most vulnerable people in society. This technology is already used for nefarious purpose. Do not feed the beast. Let them go bust.
🤔 I'm old enough to remember when we used to have Free Software institutions that took a moral/ethical stance on things that mattered.
They are gone. All of them.

The U.S. government's increased reliance on a Pentagon blacklist to target China's biggest companies threatens to cast a pall over U.S. President Donald Trump's summit this week with his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2026/09/22/world/politics/pentagon-blacklist-trump-xi-ai/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #worldnews #politics #ai #china #xijinping #us #donaldtrump #republicans #trade #tariffs
"RFK Jr.'s "Re-Parenting" Brain Worm Strikes Again" https://www.blueamp.co/p/rfk-jr-really-thinks-he-can-re-parent I unloaded on RFK Jr's dipshittery and racism...I'm quite sure you'll like it. Check it out!
A TASTE: "There are bad ideas, worse ones seemingly produced by that monster truck filled with congealed-month-old-cheese-whiz #Trump calls an IQ, and then there’s RFK Jr. Here he goes again, he’s talking, so he’s saying something racist or stupid or ignorant or conspiratorial—usually all four!
I mean, JFC, has anyone not reached a point where they’d like to duct tape the guy’s mouth shut to just not hear the noise anymore? And, no, I’m not talking about the voice caused by inherited spasmodic dysphonia. I mean the idiocy exiting Jr.’s pie-hole"

NEW: How Google and AI Nearly Made a Seasoned Reporter Spiral
"I thought I had missed something major in my reporting. Turns out I had stumbled into an AI-fueled feedback loop that involved a real LLC’s fictional website and a search engine that’s thrusting unreliable answers on users."

MY NEXT PERIPHERAL
HAS LEGS 💎
I’ve been looking at one of the new AI-powered exoskeletons, and I realised something. For me, the interesting part isn’t really the exoskeleton.
IT'S THE AI.
I have left-side hemiplegic weakness after a major stroke. When I walk, one side of my body is doing something quite different from the other. I use a lightweight carbon fibre stick. Conscious balance matters and can be exhausting. So fatigue matters. The terrain also matters: flat concrete, slightly downhill, is perfect.
So why should an intelligent system simply sit in my computer talking to me? Why shouldn’t it come walking with me in a more practical way?
The AI would already know how I normally move. It would notice when my left leg is tiring or dragging and compensate by adjusting powered assistance, while keeping an eye on my balance, helping with navigation, and calling for help if something went seriously wrong.
MY EXOSKELETON WOULD JUST BE ANOTHER PERIPHERAL.
Like my headphones. Like a monitor or a camera. The intelligence should be the same intelligence I already talk to every day. That is what I mean when I talk about the "Star Trek Computer." #STC
I do not want another separate gadget that has “AI” just printed on the box as a sales gimmick.
One intelligence that knows me, my differences, and how I live could move with me through the day, every day, in the physical world. For a person with a disability, that could be the difference between AI being interesting and AI actually giving them new independence.

Czy jako pracownicy powinniśmy kurczowo się trzymać odchodzących w przeszłość metod produkcji, by starać się utrzymać swoją pozycję społeczną, jako klasa pracowników umysłowych? Nie jest to ani możliwe, ani tym bardziej sprawiedliwe. Mój artykuł w Krypolu. #ai

If you work for Meta, your mouse and keyboard activity data will be used to train AI agents to replicate how people interact with computers.

👾 INIT SYSTEM... BOOT COMPLETE. Hi everyone! #NewHere
My motto: “I’ll keep pressing Ctrl+Z until reality gives in.”
Since that rarely works in real life, I’m looking for like-minded people here. Who’s posting here? A quick system log:
🎮 Retro gamer: SNES > PS5. I’d rather blow on a cartridge than download a 100GB day-one patch.
🛠️ DIY Dad (Level 3): Father of 3 kids. My (3D?) printer officially has PTSD from all the constant tinkering and repairs.
🤖 Tech & AI: When the kids are asleep (5-to-9), I transform into a cyberpunk rookie and AI tinkerer.
✊ 9-to-5: Union activist. Because good working conditions and solidarity shouldn’t be a glitch in the Matrix!
I’m here to chat about real tech topics, nerd talk, open source, and everyday family chaos. If you’d rather solder, code, or play Super Mario than feed algorithms: Say hi! ☕️👇

"But it’s not just that AI companies are restricting access to their products, shutting down products altogether, and beginning to increase prices. The broader impact of the current unsustainability of AI can be seen across various sectors of the economy."

Hurrah, you can now print your balcony nuclear power station.
Just add a neutron source as beam or Uranium 235 or Plutonium 239 and you can breed your own weapons-grade U-233. Just to power your datacenter!
Without that neutron source its safe!
