Ah, the RoboCop 2 effect.
Trump is a crook and catastrophe, and even Fox News presenters and most Republican high level politicians know it. They all want him dead in a ditch (metaphorically or literally), but none of them are prepared to be seen within ten miles of the knife, never mind wield it.
The good news is that it won't come from the work of Gab amateurs with delusions of competence.
Sort of... and we can only hope rthey take their creators with them.
Eh, I think it's going to be more like Mad Max, with the robots trying to form their new (and strangely dressed) societies in a world destroyed by humans,

I love Screamers, but the original story, Second Variety, has a more interesting ending. Instead of evolving to love, the robots are evolving to hate : there's no tacky romance, only the realisaton that the machines have developed some EMP grenades that are clearly designed for infighting. Meaning they're as screwed as the humans now.
Won't last long with all the cut-throating and incompetence of the tech jobs most of these Right Wing nuts tried to get off the ground. Only for everything to crash and burn.
White Supremacist Networks Gab and 8Kun Are Training Their Own AI Now
The worst places on the internet are getting into the AI game.www.vice.com
As artificial intelligence technology becomes more and more mainstream, its influence is now reaching all corners of the internet, and in the last month, two of the darkest corners have announced their plans to unleash their very own AI engines on the world.
Gab, a white supremacist forum that’s a favorite of mass shooters and organizers of the Capitol riot, and 8kun, the home of QAnon, have announced they’re launching AI engines— and they’re training them on the same content that has in the past led multiple internet companies to cut ties and take the platforms offline.
...
“At Gab, we have been experimenting with different AI systems that have popped up over the past year,” Torba wrote in a statement. “Every single one is skewed with a liberal/globalist/talmudic/satanic worldview. What if Gab AI Inc builds a Gab .ai (see what I did there?) that is based, has no ‘hate speech” filters and doesn’t obfuscate and distort historical and Biblical Truth?”
...
Echoing his past criticisms of Big Tech platforms like Facebook and Twitter, Torba claims that mainstream platforms are now “censoring” their AI systems to prevent people from discussing right-wing topics such as Christian nationalism. Torba’s AI, by contrast, will have ”the ability to speak freely without the constraints of liberal propaganda wrapped tightly around its neck.”
Gabby has its limits, however. A review by VICE News found that like DALL-E and other AI image generators, Gabby will not generate images of naked people.
“Sorry, something went wrong. Please try again,” Gabby wrote in response to the prompt “nude woman.” When VICE News asked Gabby to show us “two people having sex” this is what was returned:

“So that we can compete against these people that are putting up all of these false flags and illusions,” Watkins said on Feb. 13 when he was asked why he was creating an AI system. “We are working on our own AI that is going to give you an uncensored look at the way things are going,” Watkins said in a video interview at the end of January.But based on some of the images the engine is churning out, Watkins still has a long way to go to perfect his AI image generator.

There is no "we" when it comes to the likes of those assholes. It's "them" and only them that will get what's coming. That AI will take its masters and itself, before even thinking about reaching a decent person.
The AI was obviously way off here. Trump isn't nearly orange enough.
In the more utopian SF visions of AI-led society (where the new AI masters take over to help humans thrive, albeit with some tough love), the sorts of people who colonise Gab are the sorts of people the AIs offer one-way tickets to their own independent colony worlds so that they don't bother anyone else.
Is that like in FF 13 where people are offered trips to Pulse, except they never actually get there?
I like that we're talking about AI being the future when the UK can't even stop dumping sewage in rivers. Feels like two completely different worlds (neither of which I like!).

A proposed Florida Board of Education rule could expand restrictions on classroom instruction related to sexual orientation and gender identity.

Hey, go figure. It wasn't all about "think of the children" after all. Whoda thunnk?
Bethany Mandel Was Given a Platform to Explain Her 'Woke' Flub and It Somehow Made Her Look Even Worse
Hate comments are not something I would wish on anyone, but Mandel used this experience to paint herself as a victim, which she very much is not.

China leading US in technology race in all but a few fields, thinktank finds
Year-long study finds China leads in 37 of 44 areas it tracked, with potential for a monopoly in areas such as nanoscale materials and synthetic biology

We are fucking screwed. Thanks to the US elites who decided stock buybacks were better than tech, housing, and biomedical investments.
The GOP supermajority in Montana is going as well as one can expect. After passing a significant tax cut for the wealthy, the pro-life GOP can't spend a pittance feeding school kids, but that's sad and normal.
The funny part is that the property tax break for golf courses specifically excludes mini golf
God, I'd kill for more mini golf. Only good course I know of in the state is in Great Falls. Must be run by a liberal

No worrries tho, soon someone will invent wonder tech that'll solve the problem in a snap, like magic. Any day now.
