Mackenzie Scott's blog post on her $7.2 billion in annual giving is worth reading in full. Her observations are even more stark when you consider her ex, who doesn't seem to have the same appetite to give or even fund the newsroom he owns: yieldgiving.com/essays/we-ar...

Exactly! OpenAI created an AI-based therapist that validates delusional thinking, encourages suicidal ideation & helps plan self-harm behavior. OpenAI sells this product to vulnerable people w/mood disorders. Ergo OpenAI is responsible for all injuries resulting from use of this product.
We need to stop using a framework of 'ChatGPT killed someone', it feeds into the myth of the system's agency & OpenAI's framing. The right framework to use: OpenAI is continuing to perpetuate an indefinite industrial disaster. The oil pipe is not at fault when it breaks. The company that built it is

🧵: In October, NHTSA announced that it had identified four reports under the standing general order "in which a Tesla vehicle experienced a crash with FSD-Beta or FSD-Supervised engaged." In one of the crashes, the Tesla vehicle fatally struck a pedestrian." static.nhtsa.gov/odi/inv/2024...
I have a ton of issues with this op-ed but I love the idea of the duality of Waymo silicon valley vs Tesla silicon valley
I think what Friedman is gesturing at here is the fact that Waymo is pretty much the only big tech play that taps into the dying positive vibes around big tech: it's really smart people solving a really hard, transformative problem in a generally responsible way. That's not a political platform.
Imagine any pilot now tasked with flying into a war zone and wondering if any of your dumbass bosses texted your exact location to the wrong person
They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.
Don’t think everyone appreciates how devastating this is for Tesla. In the wake of a man getting disappeared for his politics, even people slightly considering checking out a Tesla *despite* the politics will now avoid it out of fear of what could happen. Another nail on the coffin
hey there, your friendly neighborhood epochal genius here, the best way to sell the cars that symbolize my technological prowess is to have my buddy the president deem anyone who doesn't like them a terrorist
Calling this the “teslafication“ of a company. Basically when the stock price becomes the main product. Which then leads to taking actions that actively screw over the actual customers www.techpowerup.com/332884/nvidi...
This is a joke but my brain now legitimately thinks “Nazi” whenever I see someone driving one, and I can’t un-see it. The visual design screams “fascism”. They might as well make this the base paint option
After making a Nazi salute at Donald Trump's inauguration, Elon Musk then introduces new special-edition, Trump inauguration Cybertruck.
