It’s bad enough that Wikipedia no longer allows linking to pages archived on there, and they’re actively working to replace any links already in use

I’m sure Epstein will learn his lesson after this

They all have Grok AI integrated to ensure that they’re Always On™ and that all of the totally real and accurate details of the violent antifa rioters brandishing their automatic assault pistols are enhanced to perfect, crystal-clear HD

Because with harm reduction as the goal, the solution is never “give them more of the harmful thing.”

I’ll compare it to the problems of drug abuse. You don’t help someone with an addiction by giving them more drugs, you don’t help them by throwing them in jail just for having an addiction, you help them by making it safe and easy to get treatment for the addiction.

Look at what Portugal did in the early 2000s to help mitigate the problems associated with drug use, treating it as a health crisis rather than a criminal one.

You don’t arrest someone for being addicted to meth, you arrest them for stabbing someone and stealing their wallet to buy more meth; you don’t arrest someone just for being a pedophile, you arrest them for abusing children.

This means making AI better, more realistic, and at the same time more diverse.

No, it most certainly does not. AI is already being used to generate explicit images of actual children. Making it better at that task is the opposite of harm reduction, it makes creating new victims easier than ever.

Acting reasonably to prevent what we can prevent means shutting down the CSAM-generating bot, not optimizing and improving it.

We could feed the pedo AI more training data and make it even better!

No.

It’s been a joke since they gave the Peace Prize to Henry Kissinger in 1973

“I might get sued for libel 🥺🥺🥺” winning out over “literal fascists are doing fascist things in ‘the land of the free’”

No, didn’t you hear, everyone with more than $100 in savings fled New York now that Mamdani is the Supreme Leader there

My first thought was about potentially protecting encryption, with all the privacy-invading laws that are popping up here in the US and abroad, but after skimming through the bill it seems like they could still use the “but criminals use encryption” line

Spoken like someone who’s never had a cheesy gordita crunch

It probably won’t take long

You know you’re a real forklift driver when you don’t even have to open the link to know what it is

My first real job out of high school, my “forklift certification” was the only other guy in the warehouse basically telling me not to crash into things. A few months in, I casually ripped around a corner, no clue why I ended up stopping. But when I did, one of the structural columns was between the forks, definitely would have destroyed it or the forklift if I hadn’t stopped

Ugh, you mean I have to take it out?

how dare you

Cool, you’re finally building a metro in the capital city. Now do the rest of the country, since it’s clearly that simple. Just do it.
