We humans are going to have to decide whether jobs exist simply to accomplish tasks or if employment as a social technology is worth preserving to maintain social order. Because companies are making decisions with heavy social consequences based on their own economic incentives.
Rumors that chili maker Lao Gan Ma laid off 500+ workers due to AI have gone viral in China.
Beneath Beijing’s positive messaging, many ordinary Chinese people are worried about AI and jobs.
Lao Gan Ma recently touted a new AI-powered chili inspection system that uses high-speed industrial cameras that significantly outperform manual inspection.
A stat about the company using this AI system to reduce human inspectors from 600 to 48 went viral on Chinese social media. The iconic, family-run company pushed back.
But if you look at the data, the company has reduced headcount from 2,912 to 740 in the past few years while earning record revenues.

The Supreme Court thinks the Founders would consider this “speech”. They’ve lost their minds.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.

Airing a piece that reframes the many RAPES of Deshaun Watson as “adversity” would be shameful for everyone involved at any time
But doing it in the wake of this Cornell news is next level evil stuff

Just asked Victor Wembanyama if he’d ever consider promoting a sports betting company.
“Absolutely not. I will never do that. Honestly, I think it's very sad to see some players promote it. …Everybody does whatever they want, but without me.”

Shout out to tarps off
Shout out to people who boycotted games
Shout out to people who demanded better than this atrocity of a product we were forced to watch the last 11 seasons
Shout out the goat Mike Trout for sticking it out during dark days
We fucking did it. He sold

I really don’t think photorealistic AI-generated political ads depicting opposing candidates saying things they’d never say should be allowed.
NEW: The Trump-aligned org Citizens for Sanity is dropping a six-figure ad buy in the Texas Senate race.
The ad is a 15 second clip of AI-generated James Talarico singing a "trans kids" rendition of “Favorite Things."

Hawai’i just passed a bill that undermine Citizens United.
The bill establishes corporations as “artificial persons” without the right to spend money on elections.
The bill could limit the influence of super PACs and be a model to challenge the influence of money in politics.

In 2008, during the last presidential election before the Citizens United decision, billionaires spent $16 million.
During the 2024 election billionaires spent $2.6 billion.

HOT TAKE: nobody in 1975 needed a budget app, a financial coach, and a side hustle to afford a two bedroom apartment. this isn’t a personal finance problem. it’s a wage theft problem.

"Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime".
