Actually, AI could be very well-suited to help with air traffic control (in a machine-assist role).
Executed well, AI can be very effective at managing complex processes and quickly identifying real-time risks.
I don’t trust this administration to implement, but not a bad approach IMO.
good god
Weather report showing current temp of 34F
Hey Mither Nature (aka Clinate Change): I packed away all my winter clothes last week when it was 85 degrees.
WTAF?
WOW.
Tim Cook stepping down. $AAPL
Sorry to be overly sincere for a second, but here's why we decided to persevere through all of the bullshit and take over InfoWars.
There's just gotta be a line somewhere.
Thank you @pablo.show for letting me talk so openly about this.
Absolutely sickening. Who are we as a nation if we don’t enact laws to protect our children?

Good try FBI, but you'll never take down any real Italians with a Prego sauce branded wiretap.
autonomously navigating wheeled-legged robot
If the marathon robot looked like this, rather than a humanoid, would anyone have been surprised it can go faster than a human?
I’m not sure why we would want autonomous robots to appear human-like in the first place. This seems more practical for most use cases.
Plato was too woke, apparently.
New, from me: Take the Palantir manifesto seriously, if not literally.
It reveals that our tech philosopher kings want public money, but without public accountability. This creates a dilemma for governments unaligned with its techno-fascist vision. 🧵

Even @nytpitchbot.bsky.social wouldn’t push that nonsense out
Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Esmail Baghaei told reporters at a press conference that Iran has no plans for a second round of negotiations with the US, following an Iranian cargo ship being seized by the US.
"A biologist from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife also reviewed video footage of the bear’s activities and determined that the animal was 'clearly a human in a bear suit.'"
Took me a moment to realize Ovid not Kafka
And… former Met Michael Conforto drives in the tying run for the Cubs in the bottom of the 9th.
If he hits 23 more he willl surpass the Mets’ all-time Felix home run record (Felix Millán with 22 homers in 12 seasons)
Straight of Hormuz opens and closes at the sound of the NYSE bell ringing.
Hey Siri: show me an example of meaningless virtue signaling while remaining compliant and complicit.

Definition of Pharisees
For context…
The antisemitism here is off the charts. “Pharisees” is not a term in most people’s vocabularies.
This is extremist language. Coming from the Defense Secretary.
The rise of Swalwell was not surprising — stupid bad men succeed all the time.
His fall, however, has shocked me. Part of why he faced consequences is the horrific nature of what he did.
But I also suspect it’s partially bc of the way the story broke: Content creators were the tip of the spear.
Breaking News: Mayor Zohran Mamdani endorsed Lindsey Boylan, the first woman to accuse former Gov. Andrew Cuomo of sexual harassment, for New York City Council.
Zohran Mamdani endorses Lindsey Boylan for NYC council
Lindsey Boylan
There is one true progressive running for NYC Council District 3 and that’s @lindseyboylan.bsky.social
Early voting for this special election starts TOMORROW - Saturday, April 18.
Tell everyone you know on the West side (from Hell’s Kitchen down to Spring Street) to vote early!!
You make some compelling points, and I agree with much of it.
One area where I differ, is that I believe that ultimately 90% of the value of AI will be in b2b. The consumer AI stuff (chatbots etc) are a distraction, not the focus.
And it’s early - we will be able to judge in 2-3 years IMO.
El experimento fallido
I cannot begin to imagine the trauma those two teenagers will have to deal with.
