Historic verdict today: a CA jury just found #Meta & #YouTube liable for designing platforms to addict a child. Not about content - about architecture. Thousands of similar suits to follow. This may be #socialMedia's "Big Tobacco moment." #AI platforms, you're next.

The end result of #AI war games? 95% ended in #nuclear weapons deployment. Not because the machines are evil. Because they don't feel the stakes the way humans do. Now the government is pushing to remove #AIguardrails. What could go wrong? www.newscientist.com/article/2516...
With #AI everywhere, we can no longer rely on visual evidence in the #IranWar. The Cascade of #AIFakes - from scenes of fake destruction to crying soldiers - is staggering. And no surprise, #socialMedia companies are doing nothing to stop it. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Yeah, man, it’s an absolute mystery why so many people are going all in on AI refusal. Maybe they absolutely do understand the ways in which AI is “useful” to the people hawking AI in the words of those very people.
Sadly, when you are sitting on top of that many billions of dollars, the stares don't matter. And despite the tragic loss these people have experienced, the addiction to #SocialMedia among youth and the vulnerable continues unabated.
The world gets stranger by the day. #OpenAI is buying #Promptfoo, a startup that enables large businesses to fix security issues in #AIAgents during their development, helping corporations reduce risks from deploying #AI software. We spend money on tech and tech to protect tech - but not on people.
AI is polling lower than #ICE and just above the #DemocraticParty. Signs of a growing backlash to #AI? Very possible. Will anything come of it - completely unclear as long as businesses see it as a way to cut labor costs.
Anthropic’s lawsuit matters far beyond #AI. If the #Government can punish firms for refusing to surveil the public or deploy autonomous killing systems, #freespeech becomes conditional on obedience. The stakes are higher than people realize.

And somehow, we stay fixated on only #AI having hallucinations.
Damn, the guy deserves more than 30K for exposing that security risk.
Sadly, this is likely the future of every #worker in the service industry - at least until they’re replaced. No supervisor can monitor employees 24/7 but #AI will do it at minimal cost.
So many more questions than answers as the #AI deal between @anthropic.com and #DOD fell apart. A clash of headstrong personalities? Real #ethical issues? Sam Altman being opportunistic? The one thing missing in these discussions - our freedoms. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/01/t...
Everything has become gambling - including betting on human suffering. Maybe we’ll get some regulation around the edges in the future but I don't think we’ll ever go back now that we've started down this road.
I’m willing to see wait but not long. Remember this is not just about working with the military but being banned from working with any other company that does - those are high stakes. There’s no deal yet and they may still walk away. We should know by Friday but I get your skepticism - and anger.
Thoroughly disappointed, but don't want to jump to conclusions. Have to see how this all shakes out. But over 3 years into the #GenAI revolution, #Ethics has clearly taken a back seat if it's even on the bus at all. #AI is going to blow up on us when someone uses it for truly nefarious purposes.
Hey! It’s easy to create a robot army! This guy linked his #Robot vacuum to a #PlayStation controller and accidentally gained control of 6,700 vacuums worldwide with live video, Mics, and Floor plans.
Nothing like mixing #AI with bad #security practices.

I still prefer the term “AI Slop” as it seems more appropriate for the #AI generated garage on the web, but I can see “AI;DR” taking off. We’re being overwhelmed with crap we can easily create on our own - and we don’t need to waste out time reading it. futurism.com/artificial-i...
This is the unspoken issue in AI implementation and it’s impacting much more than the creative fields. AI - amazing as it is - is an easy way to avoid hiring and paying entry level employees and interns. Businesses may save money but graduating students will find closed doors to a career path.
A screenless #laptop may be novel but it’s still a solution looking for a problem. Until our #XRGlasses get light years better than they are now, no one is going to use this. And honestly, you could create the same setup on any laptop and have more flexibility.

Will #AI destroy the careers of future #artists. AI will create new forms of creative expression but it’s already destroying the pathways to becoming an artist in any field. Will anyone hire an intern or entry level student when AI can do the job?

You have to stop the constant podcasts. One help for me was getting the new Shokz Openfit 2+ earbuds. Since they are open ear devices and not noise canceling, I use them more and just have music on in the background of my life.
#NYC usually does security right - hey, we do huge events like #NewYearsEve - but the new mayors inauguration is also banning Raspberry Pi and Flipper Zero. WTF? Start banning individual devices and you’re going to have to publish a book of prohibited devices blog.adafruit.com/2025/12/30/n...
Please support Maya Georgieva's #SXSWedu proposal on Designing for Emergence: Student voices shaping the frontiers of #storytelling. #AI and #XR have already hacked our sense of reality - the call now is to claim agency.
Voting ends tonight at midnight!

#GPT-5 is here — faster, sharper, and already dividing opinion. Built-in personas, software on demand, and a few surprises in the new #LLM model that some critics call “a step back.” Here’s what it really means for #education, policy, and #creative work. www.digitalbodies.net/openai-gpt-5...
LOL Yep, I’m just waiting for the posts on TruthSocial. If not an outright act of war, immigrants must have done it.
God, the @newsmedia is pathetic these days. Mexican NAVY training sailing ship hits Brooklyn Bridge in #NYC this evening and media outlets are referring to it as “sailboat” or “party boat.” Have they never even used Wikipedia to check some basic facts? abcnews.go.com/US/mexican-n...
Too bad Native Americans didn't think of charging asylum seekers a $1,000 each to enter what would become the U.S. They would have wiped up monetarily with the Pilgrims and everyone else.
Should have posted a sign on Plymouth Rock - $1,000 to step here.

Apple's reorg of #Siri team might actually result in getting a product out the door. Right now, Siri is an utter embarrassment for #Apple - especially after 2.5 years of #GenAI being around.
Unbelievable, calling it "Workforce management actions."
This is just appalling. But I fear it's only going to get much worse.
