I mean, if Elon Musk wanted Parler, I’m sure he could have gotten the real thing for a lot less than 43 billion…

And a heads up everyone, I definitely turned this off on my parent’s TV last year but it was BACK this year. Software updates may turn it back on. Sinister.

A fundamental narrative failure of everyone talking about OpenAI as the company that wants to build safe AI is that their literal claim to fame is rushing to ship ChatGPT based on a technology which Google invented but thought was too unsafe to ship.

This is a company focused on shipping generative AI tech as quickly as possible and capturing as many customers as possible before competitors catch up.

They are AI doomers mainly to slow down the industry not themselves.

The annual Thanksgiving tradition has obscured the historical reality of Native American genocide: dispossession from their lands, efforts to destroy their cultures, and the slaughter of their communities.

It is important to remember this past as we celebrate with our families and bear witness to current struggles against genocide and imperialism. Around the world, Indigenous people are continuing to resist and refuse to be erased.

seems to me like there's a notable overlap between the time human beings invented boxes and when cats decided to domesticate themselves

Last year at the Holidays there were hashtags to connect people who were going to be alone, or people who felt lonely during these times. This year they seem to be #JoinIn and #SitTogether

Pls let me know if there are more hashtags.
Please BOOST for visibility. Thank you, beautiful people. :sparkles_pink:
