AI one-percenters seizing power forever is the real doomsday scenario, warns AI godfather::The real risk of AI isn't that it'll kill you. It's that a small group of billionaires will control the tech forever.

Business Insider warning about late stage capitalism feels more than a little ironic.

As does being warned of technological oligarchs monopolizing AI by someone who works for fucking Meta.

Not to mention the reason we can all fuck around with llama models despite the fact. Props to yann and other meta AI researchers. Also eager to see future jepa stuff.

If only openAI was so open.

Today on PBS, we got an insider warning from a lifelong Republican that the fascism got put of hand and is going for full autocracy, even though he'd been pushing through pro-fash policies for the last thirty years.

Everyone thinks The One Ring will be theirs to control.

And in other news, the Leopards Eating Faces Party continues to eat faces, confusing Leopards Eating Faces voters...

Was that the Adam Kinzinger one? It's a low bar, but I'll give him a modicum of credit for saying his vote against the first impeachment was cowardice and that he'd vote for Biden in 2024 if Trump is the Republican nominee. Doesn't totally feel like a lesson learnt that he still considers himself a Republican, though.
