Sure.

Now legally prove exactly which CEOs are intentionally, directly and personally responsible for the company's addictive products often created years or even decades before they took office.

The entire idea of a CEO will be dead long before we imprison one for acting on behalf of their investor-mandated fiduciary duty. Rather ironic when you realize exactly who fiscally encourages said behavior..

Uh, did you just say..add?

Try not to assume Gen Alpha N' Chill is going to know how to math any better than they can read. We know why there is only ONE clusterfucked mess of an interface full of auto-curated shit for a zero-original-thought audience whose attention span can't even justify commercials anymore. We're now dealing with UIs designed for 8-year olds because that's what the shareholders demanded after it was proven to be the most profitable design.

Much like every other Orwellian-turned-reality in the 21st Century, I can only wish I was joking or exaggerating.

This, coming from the American auto maker who can't sell shit at their current MSRP+FU pricing model.

This, coming from an auto-making industry who just took a financial fucking bath on EV adoption, and is reverting backwards in many ways because of it.

Whatever the hell this guy is smoking, should either be illegal or free. I'll take two.

Really? You can't fake an ELO ranking?

Should we ask Hans Neimann himself about that, or should we ask the creators of his anal bead algorithm about the irony of your question..

When did British citizens expect to start getting tossed in jail for comments they made on social media?

When did Australian citizens expect to be disarmed by their own government?

I can tell you when these citizens never expected that shit. Within a mere fraction of my lifetime.

("Dramatic", would be how an investor describes the growth of the privacy-destroying Flock surveillance network. Just a nod as to how America is faring regarding what's left of the Bill of Rights-turned-Wrong.)

Ask that super premium mega-flyer with the double-diamond gold-plated status if they know where the emergency exits are on a 737-300 and how to find their personal floatation device. I'm betting they could tell you. Drunk and blindfolded. In three languages.

It is permanent memory for those that fly a lot. Flying in an airplane, is the environment that isn't permanent for 95% of people on a plane. For reasons inexplicable to me personally, I still know grown adults today who have never flown on an airplane. Ever.

The thing that has also changed, is the grey matter in between flying ears. Farts last longer than attention spans now. Comedic ads is how you break through a skull smoothed over by doomscrolling in hopes that the inexperienced moron becomes at least a trained monkey in a downed aircraft survival scenario. You could always shock the living shit out of them with a blood-soaked scared straight "safety" reminder full of horrific deadly landings (ala 80's DMV school), but you'd probably lose half your customers before the plane took off, with most of them never stepping back on again. Ever.

One of the more eye-opening events we can hope enlightens Gen Alpha at some point, is the crushing depression that can come with turning narcissism into social currency. Social media forces people to find out that NO amount of look-at-me effort is ever enough to "win" the attention game they feel obligated to play. At every age. Including the age when kids used to enjoy being a child instead of stressing out about their social status like some struggling actor drunk and high on Hollywood sauce.

Narcissism used to be a problem actually acknowledged by society. Today, Professional Attention Whore is a high-paying profession, as validated by too many a social media influencer earning six and seven figures for being little more than a narcissist. Narcissism isn't a problem anymore. It's a fucking life goal.

And WAY too much of the stock market, relies on mass narcissism now. The only way people are NOT going to buy shit they don't need, is if the financing stops. Because selling narcissism as a goal won't.

I'm more concerned about how it behaves when there is no need for a contract at all.

If someone walks in the door with an MSRP-amount of cash in their hands ready to buy outright a device that is normally sold to a loan-licker who loves a new fashionable lease, how exactly is said device re-configured to ensure an owner is NOT treated like a debt-owing pseudo-suspect?

Now let's clarify the definition of ownership again. Because the next Orwellian "check" they will make when financial fuckery isn't enough to censor and control you, is your social credit score..

The Real Genius script was in play, long before the AI became self-aware.

Now if we can juuust get one more metric fuckload of popping corn shoved into the AI house before DEFCON hacks the sharks-with-laser-beams-in-space system normally designed to control the weather..

Uh, let's do a slight clarification here before we start filling prisons under the broad stroke of "intentional addictiveness". Because I can fit a LOT of felons in our society under that.

The average CEO, comes into any company tasked with the job of managing others who tend the existing fields of general progress, success, and survival. In 99% of cases they were NOT the ones who genetically crossed the strains in the lab long ago and sowed the seeds of said empire that grew to be "evil" in the 21st Century. In 99% of the cases, that was someone else. Likely long before they chose to take the reigns for a stock-playing while.

CEOs are often victims of circumstance as well. When the Ford factory emptied it's manufacturing floor of able-bodied males to fight a World War, was it an "evil" CEO that put women back to work on the production lines making bullets and aircraft parts, or was that a CEO merely providing a living wage and working opportunities for many Americans supporting the war effort? How many salaries kept widows and their children alive?

Which CEOs do you imprison today within painfully obvious industries of addiction like tobacco? Did todays CEOs have anything to do with the 400+ chemicals now found in a cigarette today that curated and blended that finely tuned addiction over decades, or are they just here to eat at the stock-trading dessert bar for a few years while babysitting a company?

Are all CEOs innocent? No. I'm just saying not all CEOs by title alone deserve The Zuckerberg Trials. Most can't even spell algorithm. Let alone define it. Neither can the lawmakers they bought with internet tube-coin.

We are infected with the Disease of Greed. Have been for thousands of years. Empires rise because of the Disease. Empires fall because of the Disease. The only thing that prevails every time, is the Disease. Not sure how imprisoning CEOs will cure that. All that will do, is replace human CEOs with blameless faceless nameless AI. Which from a consumer protection standpoint will be far worse.

Just curious, what wrote that attack report?

No. Not a typo. Just making sure a meatsack was still involved.

In the era of using defensive AI to detect any nefarious activity related to offensive AI, I'm not so sure we should be trusting any what-happened report written by AI. It's kind of the perfect path to enable AI to obfuscate the nefarious activities of AI.

You know, until AI gets to that line in the script that says [stupid human clicks the Enter button and turns over all control to Skynet].

(Of course AI read the script. How ironic Gen Alpha, can't.)

Your example is quite tainted.

A CEO that goes to bed at night resting peacefully on a billion dollars worth of cash reserves sitting high atop the bloody hill of competition, can fucking afford to say any idiotic thing they want to shareholders, regardless if it makes sense (or cents).

Let's hear from the struggling CEO who is still struggling to justify their IPO with a stock price.

Apple doesn't only make products for the blind. They never have, and they never will. Bullshit retorts, are bullshit.

Gen InstaMe's retort to your valid stance, was written in girl math. Also used to justify about 80% of the college catalog at our most liberal-ated Universities of Political Indoctrination and secure 90% of new car loans.

Fiscal conservatism isn't just rare in America. Dave Ramsey is damn near considered an Enemy of the State for preaching responsible spending habits because American GDP now demands otherwise.

How else do we explain the other end of that fiscal spectrum with teenagers approved for credit lines with little more than a strong fart on the application, or the legal systems designed to addict them to spending long before the credit line gets prematurely approved. The horrific gambling addiction quietly festering behind a $200 billion dollar re-branded "speculative market" designed to attract ages 8 to 80, was hardly a marketing oversight.

Yeah. It does suck. Because those of us who live responsibly end up being victims when entire financial markets crash from the pressures of chasing profit through irresponsibility.

Uh, just a side note..we meatsacks should probably learn to shut the fuck up about that whole global warming thing while standing around the AI chatbot cooler.

You know what generates a LOT of heat on this planet?

Humans.

That sustainability problem, is elementary for Skynet to solve. Morals are for meatsacks. As is every global warming concern.

If America develops the most advanced drone army on the planet, is the enemy targeting the rapid development of their own drone army that can compete, or is the actual target of opportunity the C&C system that controls the most advanced drone army on the planet?

New weapons. Bigger problems.

(I believe we stopped "advancing" 40-60 years ago because ending the last World War in the manner we did was a pretty damn valid deterrent to not "advance" down a road that glows at night for the next 10,000 years. Let's just say less-than-nuclear warmongering of yore is a more "civilized" manner of fighting paced for long-term sustainability and profit.)
