"For all the sci-fi overtones, the founders insist they are not building an Orwellian surveillance system." These people are serious. It does not appear to be an elaborate Mr. Bean esque comedic bit. Kind of like Thiel's Anduril and Palantir archive.ph/uRp2r#select...
Ah. I see...another silicon valley start up that sets fire to the wold. How quaint. archive.ph/uRp2r#select...
"AGI" digital omnipresence. "Past, present, and future" "It's the ability to know everything, past, present, and future," Burciaga said. "We're all Christians, so we are careful, but somebody could refer to this as God-mode." archive.ph/uRp2r#select...

Very good article. lpeproject.org/blog/revisit...
Happy 4th! Reupping a poem I wrote last year. Dark poetry for dark times, though not all is so morose. There is always a bit of good in each day, if you take the time to find it
More clips of essay 2 on Alan Moore, from my Patreon I am looking forward to branching out someday to read some of his other works
Will dig into if there is other reporting on this, later today. Wouldn’t surprise me, however.
Always have a memes ready to go when you need to laugh!
