It's pretty clear that LLMs will not lead to AGI a la

The reason
#Epstein
crimes have never been thoroughly investigated is that the number of financial crimes far exceed the number sex crimes. It's the same reason thousands of financial industry leaders never went to prison after 2008. Wealthy are immune to prosecution when it brings down too many.

I cannot listen to Rubio without imagining a little boy asking for a Red Rider BB gun for Christmas. He will forever be, in my mind, an adolescent with an adolescent's simple view of the world. He will be forever a little boy.

RFK Jr. is so fearless when it comes to germs that he once snorted coke off Jeffery Epstein's left butt cheek while sharing a dirty heroine needle with a Russian hooker. Ladies and gentlemen, our HHS Secretary.

Prior to the 1830s, before the introduction of the telegraph, information traveled at a top speed of 35 MPH. Since then it has traveled at near the speed of light and now penetrates every nook and cranny of the planet, bringing a glut of useless information to our phones and tablets each morning.

I cannot escape the logical conclusion that there are only two possibilities in the
#Epstein
case. 1. There is no legal path to prosecute others. 2. There would be so much damage to economic elite that five subsequent federal administrations chose not to pursue legal prosecution. #1 is absurd! π‘

LLMs will never replace the workforce. In a nutshell, AGI could replace lots of human work; however, LLMs will not lead directly to AGI. In fact, we should all be dubious at the prospect of ever achieving AGI by any means. Best hope: Narrow AIs that we can easily talk to.

"This isn't White enough for me." In one sentence one of Donald Trump's chief consiglieres has summed up the whole

mission.

This is a continuation of white Christian nationalism, which is as old as the republic itself.

This will not happen for two reasons: 1. Trump posted it himself. 2. Paying someone off to claim they did it and were then fired will never work. When no one gets fired it will be evidence Trump posted this racist garbage.

BRACING NEWS! Trump announces his rallies will replace "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" with "Song of the South" as performed by Lee Greenwood in black face. When asked for comment Kkkaroline Leavitt said the president now feels free enough to communicate with all his true supporters.

Where's the national moral outrage on the part of our religious institutions when it comes to

and all those tangential to him? That's what happens when you turn a moral movement into self-help and get-rich schemes, and then there's the white Christian nationalism. π

Ladies and gentlemen, the man who just a few months ago dubbed himself the "chief law enforcement officer of the United States." Apparently, criming is only his concern if it's done to those Trump likes.

The goal here is abolishing the provisions of the Johnson Amendment, making some churches an effective arm of the state. I hope

MAGA is driven by the existential boogeyman of "white replacement theory." This is why they desire mass deportation, "denaturalization," and the break down of most international trade. This existential fear is why they also ignore any moral framework for their domestic actions.

Abu Ghraib was the result of a military let off the leash, ignoring moral norms to achieve questionable ends. This happened under the same administration that argued for "enhanced interrogation." CPB/ICE activity in the U.S. is a continuation of rogue military activity. Imperialism comes home. π

George Carlin identified the thinking behind all overreaching security, the desire for people in power to let you know they can fuck with you anytime they like. This is not a benign power, even without authoritarianism, but it gets worse under fascism.

The counterargument to this is that Large Language Models have been publicly available for several years now and they appear to have plateaued in performance. If LLMs could do what this CEO suggests, no one would be paying for all the high-end, bespoke software that should now exist.

That they are going door to door looking for people to terrorize then just walking away shows that this is not an organized effort to remove undocumented immigrants with criminal records. This is about terrorizing non-white communities, whether U.S. citizens or undocumented.
