Because Trump walked into Nehanyahu's trap, like the vain, corrupt, incompetent fool he is.

For years Israel has been begging US to bomb Iran and it didn't, because of what is happening now. Hormuz is an obvious choke point. It was a shit show before, but a manageable one, now it's chaos. And if it takes boots on the ground to fix it , it will make Vietnam and Korea look like a party. But you'll be safe making ignorant comments from your mum's basement in your MAGA hat waving your little flag for freedom.

This US administration is being played by Iran and Israel. Amazed you are proud of looking so dumb.

You are clearly an attention seeker.

"Official" mass surveillance, whatever that means, in respect of crime, road safety and terrorism, on balance, it's probably keeping me safer. If its being done by institutions we have some chance of regulation and responsible use. Giving it to every monkey though, unregulated, no thanks, much as I like us as a species we are both wonderful and very, very, very weird and dangerous at times.

Are you talking about the mythical muslim invasion of Europe?

Have you every travelled to Europe? Seen for yourself whether any of the hysterical bullshit on social media is true?

Have you ever left your mum's basement?

I instinctively hate the idea of cameras in glasses.

Now I am usually pretty rational so here's my best guess at why I hate the idea.

1. Because the filming is being done covertly.

I know security cameras do that, but they are out of sight and out of mind and filming everyone. And when someone does it with a phone, you can see it being done and can try and get out of the way, cover your face. The recording light can be

2. Because the filming is being done with eye contact.

Feelings around eye contact are very primal, we do it in aggression and affection. We are told as kids by our parents not to stare at people because it's threatening. Using a camera in glasses is not only staring at people it's also filming them potentially. Very threatening. Why do they want to film me? What they going to do with the film?

As long as they are the only thing you are wearing sweetheart.

Yes I am ok. That anonymous guy though. Someone nicked his sweets.

Are you real ? You sound fucking demented.

Try this in your pipe.

Americans are not free. Most are shackled to debt in hope of buying happiness, working jobs they don't want to. They work longer hours, have less holidays and earn less than many countries in the western world. Many Americans are poorly educated, obese and unwell, they suffer a variety of addictions drugs, alcohol, food, social media. They have no public healthcare provision, disregard for the environment and their lifespan is reducing. Half of Americans hate the other half, because they are led by the most selfish, greedy and ruthless who are respected like peasants respect a king, the other half are trying to protect themselves from the other half. Americans have been engaged in some kind of war somewhere since their country's formation and when not fighting overseas they often shoot each other, kids included.

I guess you are invested in AI then. That doesn't discount your opinion. But it suggests it might not be objective.

Taking Scale.ai as an example I couldn't find, from a shallow browse, a real life case study for where their tech was applied?

Plenty of whitepapers, articles, speculation and partnerships. Though a partnership can be just turning up to a meeting and making some loose promises, optics at best.

Surely Scale.ai would be shouting about their amazing successes on their front page? As would the organisations that benefitted.

If there are loads of success stories, share them with us sceptics, change our minds.

Are you two, one person with a split personality?

Or is the coward the jilted boyfriend of Silvergun? And you created a fake account for him on some gay hook up site in Asia?

Love is in the air, everywhere I look around
Love is in the air, every sight and every sound
And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look at your posts

Get a room you two.

That's realistic. And the use cases are all low frequency and niche. It's a bit like a swiss army knife, lots of applications I don't use that often, but someone skilled could build a wonky house with it. Eventually I get bored carrying it in my pocket.

Not enough to justify this level of investment.

AI's greatest success has been marketing, over inflating its value and utility. Crypto operates on the same premise.

I can see LLM sticking around too, this time next year, we wont be talking about it. I guess robots will be the next tech hype as we've kinda done the big ones shopping, sex, money, AI.

"Haters" , poor language. How about sceptics?

There is a lot to be sceptical about AI. Aside from software dev and established machine learning applications, where are the big AI success stories apart from in its supply chain? What business has been radically transformed and achieved huge profits by rolling out co-pilot? Surely it should be happening by now its fairly ubiqutous.

For us coding boilerplate most of the time, sure it's a wow moment. For the ordinary punter, they've got a search and summary tool they can talk to in natural language, that at best is a minor evolution. And applying an ad model to it, to monetise it, is not likely to improve it. And for the 5 times a week someone might use it, will they really pay a subscription or just google for free?

As a business do I want to really invest in a product that helps my employees become dumber, dependent, less creative ? Being smart, independent and creative is what built my success thus far.

It smells like the short termism we see on the right of politics, and its the right of politics that are punting this stuff along with crypto. The right tend to make it all about the money, save a buck now and sack a few people, make the rest work harder. They did this in the UK and deindustrialised us, now we're fucked. AI is set to de-smart us and de-creative us and make us dependent on a host of weirdos like Altman, Musk and Thiel.

That's a dumbass move.

So not haters, sceptics, who might have a wider, longer view than you.

Peace brother or sister.

He got on the right end of the marketing wave for this one for sure.

The outrage at his casting choices are possibly as bonkers as Tenet was. A masterclass in walking backwards.

Interstellar was memorable. And a go to if I have trouble sleeping. No one moaned about the honourable Cockerney Caine being cast as a professor of anything other than pulling birds, robbing banks and shooting Zulus

This doesn't concern me at all. Natural selection at work.

Im going to secretly film you when I am looking at you. If anyone is not sure, that is not how to get a girlfriend, or any friend for that matter.

Going to be a very popular tech for creeps and perverts.

We call it the "Torygraph" Tory being an old world for a conservative, like the word "wanker"

It's mostly read by aspirational peasants who thought Margaret Thatcher was hot.

When your last version of Maga was Nazi's I'd be careful too.

No shortage of idiot peasants in history who believed a dictator is going to save them. Maga is the same. As is reform in this country. Even when the frauds leading these movements are exposed as only in it for the money and they don't care where from, the donkeys keep braying.
